GERMANY REJECTS
M|NOR|T|ES REPORT
Or. Stresemann Tells League
Committee 1t Does Not
Offer Guarantee.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
MADRID, June l1.-Gustav StreSe-
mann, German foreign minister. today
told the special committee of the Coun-
Gil of the League of Nations consider
ing the minorities report that ne was
unable to accept the report In Its
actual form because it did not of1er
a permanent guarantee for minorities.
Herr Stresemann's protest against
the report of the committee of three
had been expected since May %. when
the proposals formulated by both Ger
many and Canada concerning the pro-
lection of 4O,0o0,Oo0 minority peoples
were rejected.
Sir Austen Chamberlain, Senior Qui-
nones de Leon of Spain and M. Adachi
of Japan refused at that time to &C
cept the suggestion that the League
Council exercise constant supervision
over interests of these minority peoples.
They decided that sthe Council could
act. under the powers given by the
minority treaties, only when member
of the Council reported an 1nfractlon
of the treaties.
Brands Plea Is Futile.

lister, today appealed to Herr Strese-
mann to accept the report as mini
mum on which to form base for fur

of Disbursements among nations.
Unl-ss an agreement is reached at
Madrid, the problem will return to the

and great expenditure of effort by
jurists.
Evacuation May Be Discussed.
Considerable significance was at
tached here to a conference this after
noon between StTesemann and M.
B~iqpS
It was believed the conference would
provide opportunity for discussion of
essentially German-French problems OF
evacuation of the Rhineland zone.
A plenary session of the League
Council was organized briefly yester-
day morning and adjournment taken
until tomorrow, so members might at
tend the program Of festivities and
formal functions arranged for them.
The work of the League since the
last session of the Council was briefly
reported and the agenda read, which
calls for consideration of revision OF
the World Court statutes and protec-
ton for minority peoples.

White was arraigned on the second

was granted. @

According to Whites report, he was
about 100 feet behind Servine when the
latter got out on the highway and held
up his sign. Both men were obliged TO
jump to avoid being run down, and he
did not fire until the car had passed
them, White. said. His intentions were
to puncture the tires, thereby bringing
the car to a halt he asserted, adding
that the car travelled nearly 40 feet
after he fired.
Even when he saw the driver, his face
covered with blood, slumped over
against his wife, he did not think the
man was dead, White said. Virkkula
was taken to an International Falls hos

took him to the courtroom floor, there
turning him over to another guard.
vator came back down, bringing Cooper
He says he then put Cooper back in
the cell with the other three.
A few minutes later, the van from
the Jail drove up TO take the prisoners
back. The driver counted four as they
filed past. He was satisfied. He had
brought four away from the Jail, and
he was taking four back. The figures
Tailed nicely and everything was o. K.
so far as he could see.
Attorney Also Mystified.
Everything might have continued to
move along smoothly and indefinitely
had 1t not been for Cooper's visit to the
home Of his lawyer. Royal Hughes.
The lawyer was not at home when
Cooper called, so the escaped" prisoner
asked Mrs. Hughes to reaSSure her huS-
band that he would be in court on the
appointed day. When Hughes heard of
the visit he notified the marshal, know
ing that Cooper was supposed to be in
jail When the news reached the mar
shall he started an investigation, which
revealed that Cooper was gone, but dis
closed nothing of how he managed 1t.
All OF the facilities of the marshall
office are being concentrated now on
finding out how Cooper managed to get
away.
The marshal has hit upon the fol-
lowing explanation of the escape:
Cooper arrived at the courthouse safe
lv enough and was locked up there with
the other prisoners. While Cooper was
in court, assuming that he was, another
colored prisoner was turned In by a
| bondsman and locked up in the cell
with the three others who were brought
J from the Jail with Cooper. II this was
| done it must have been done while the
| guard on duty was away from his post
| or, else he forgot about the new arrival
when time came to take them back To
jail.
Marshal Is Much Interested.
At any rate, under this theory, when
| Cooper was brought back from the
! courtroom there were five men In the
| cell and not four.
| The iail van came for the prisoners
and since neither the driver nor the
guard knew fifth man had been put
in the cell they were entirely salts
| fled to take four away. Presumably
Cooper concealed himself while the
other four were being led out, and
then, after the guards had gone simply
walked out through the open door and
into the street. He was not missed
at the Jail because they do not check
on prisoners released In the marsn1l's
| custody.
This may or may not have been what
happened. The marshal is frank to
ADMIT he doesn't know. OF one thing
however, he is positive-he- is almost
| as much interested In learning just
how Cooper escaped as he is in get
ting him back,

It was during the performances OF

regretted the lack of japanese vocab-
ulery. for whatever they did and said
evoked wild mefriment among the spec
tators, and even among the wrestlers,
some 20 in number, who sat in. rows on
opposite sides of the arena awaiting
summons to perform. Later we learned
that these two, especially the an
nouncer, were burlesquing the officials
at the professional wrestlin" matches in
Japan. Their high-pitched sing-song
foi-de-dol, their pronunciation of the
names OF the contestants, and, It would
seem, their highly exaggerated recitals
of the prowess and records of the men
whom they summoned to duty In the
ring all sent their hearers into par
oxysms of laughter.
