Carter and Yon Kessler Ar- raigned in New York Three
 More Men Are Sought
WATKINS WILL TESTIFY
 FOR FEDERAL ATTORNEY
Man Whose Name Concern Bears Formerly Lived in New Britain Hunted Now in Investigation, He Is Said to Be on Vacation at snort Resort Somewhere in Connecticut, Authorities Think.

New York, Aug. 15 P)-Two of the members of the firm of Ander- son & Company, alleged Wall Street tipsters, were arraigned today on charges to using the mails to de- fraud and held in s10,Oo0 and ST. 500 bail.
 The larger bail was required of A. Arthur Carter, alleged actual head of the company which took It's name from John V. Anderson, for mer Connecticut state assemblyman, who is being sought with two other members of the firm. Samuel Won Kessler, was the other man arrest ed and arraigned today.
 Part of Futile Drive
 The arrests are part of the drive of United States Attorney Charles H. Futile against alleged bucket shops and circulators of tipster sheets, who, he charges have mulct- ed market spectators of millions of dollars during the past few years.
 Carter issued a statement after his arraignment in which he said that the business conducted by the company was strictly honest and legitimate" and that he had volun- tarily appeared before the federal attorney to giveh him what assist ance he could in the drive, of which, he said, he thorougly approved.
 Watkins to Testify
 MT. Tuttles office said that Roger W. Watkins, who is serving a prison sentence in Connecticut for stock frauds, had volunteered to come to New York and testify "or just give information" concerning Anderson and Carter with whom he was for merly associated in business.
 The men for whom the warrants were issued were John V..Anderson, . former Connecticut state assembly, rlan, A. Arthur Carter, Samuel von Kessler, Benjamin Grober and Ben- Jamin Cohen.
 Assistant Federal Attorney Mint Ter, who had been conducting the campaign, said Carter asserted An derson's rame was used as the front" of Anderson X Co.,, although he had dispensed with Anderson's services about two months ago and employed Benjamin Grober in his place.
 Anderson, Mintzer said, had been ''used by Watkins ani Carter in the enterprise, just as he was used in the promotion of Anderson & Co.,"
 Carter Has Prison Record
 Complaints against Carter had as- serted that he had prison record and had realized S1,000,000 from tip .ster activities. During a three-houi conference with Chief Assistant Fed eral Attorney George J.

SNOWDEN REPEATS |. STAND OF ENGLAND
 Reassures Nation He Will Not Back Down at Hague
 DEMANDS LARGER SHARE

Capitulate and Compromise
 Crucial Meeting Set for Saturday
 Morning.
 The Hague, Aug. IS PHThe Brit ish delegation, by letter and other wise. within the past A hours has made known to other nations par ticipating in the conference to make the Young plan effective. that it's ul- tlmatum still stands and it will not accept the Young plan without an increased share of German repara- tionS.
 It was made known also that Philip Snowden, British chancellor of the. eXchequer, intended to de- mand action on his resolution for re- vision of the Young plan, and would brook little further delay. Intimate personal conversations between the delegates continued anyway with the hope of finding some way out of the deadlock
 Denies Compromise Near
 MT. Snowden was understood to have given this warning to the other delegations because the talk of offers and concessions had created in England the impression com promise was being considered. The chancellor, while willing to consider reasonable proposals, wanted to forestall any impression which might have taken root in consequence of the talk of offers which might, or might not prove acceptable.
 The progress of negotiations in the political committee of the conference with reference to evacuation of the Rhineland had given rise to the ar gument that if the French and Ger mans could agree on this graver question it would not be possible for anybody to stand out against agree ment in the financial committee on the matter of a comparatively small sum of money
 Dispels False Reports
 The chancellor, it was said, felt he was being pushed into a false posi- ton and exposed to criticisms from home for backing down after hav- ing aroused the entire nation to his support. lie thus took means to pre- vent things from going too tar be- fore he declared himself.
 The situation arising as result of this development was all the more serious by the resolution of the other creditor nations, France, Italy, Bel gium and Japan, yesterday to stand together in opposition to Chancel- Tor SnoWden.
 If the Snowden resolution comes up for action Saturday at the meet ing of the financial committee un- amended it undoubtedly will be re- jected and the chancellor will be faced with the necessity of going home or backing down.
 Crucial Meeting Saturday
 It was rumored last night MT Snowden had asked the financial committee to be called together to. morrow night for action on his reso- lution. If he had such an intention he has abandoned it and the crucia meeting remained slated for 10 a. m Saturday.
 Chancellor Snowden made knowr the fact that his position was un changed in a letter to Premier Jas par of Belgium who communicated the message to the other chief dele

Prohibition Commissioner, Address
 ing Virginia Institute, Cites Ar rests and SeizuresEnforcem Has Halted Diversion of Legiti- mate Liquor and Forced Bootleg gers to Make Their Own Products.


 Charlottesville, Va, Aug. 15 LP) - Cooperation of state authorities with the federal government in en- forcing the prohibition law was urged today by Prohibition Com missioner Doran in an address be- fore the institute of public affairs at the University of Virginia.
 Federal agents and investigators he said, last year made 67.200 ar rests, seized 1867 automobiles and trucks and recommended prosecu- tion of 65,S67 persons in federal | courts.
 Must Have State Aid
 While this is a very substantial accomplishment" he declared, ''it still remains obvious that there must be large supplementary po- lice activity and a full functionine Of state courts to bring about thai degree of criminal enforcement that we all desire"
 He held it was unfortunate tha unsatisfactory conditions arisinti from violations of the prohibition law "are almost invariably made the basis of complaint of non-ac ton by the federal government"
 "In much of the public discus sion" he added, 'it seems to be as stunned as a premise that the en forcement of liquor laws is solel. up to the federal government
 "If we examine the prevalen opinion we cannot fail to come t the conclusion. assuming that tn policy of prohibitory legislation a a means of lessening the evils. 0 alcoholism is a fixed national pol icy, that one of two courses mus be pursued.
 Must Solve Question
 We must either bend our effort to the clarification of the state an federal function as it relates to DC lice activities necessarily arising i connection with enforcement of Ii quor laws and bring about clear CT conception of those two func tions in the public mind, with necessary corollary of developin more fully the state police power and bringing about a discharge o the constitutional obligations o those states not now adequatel discharging them, or else embarI
