BELG|UM'S ARMS
PLAN IS REJECTED
Move for New Classification
of Armament Fails at
Geneva Farley.

BY the Associated Press.
GENEVA, March 13.-The interna-
tional experts on ornaments, who Mon
day began conferences here, yesterday
rejected Belgian plan for a new clas-
sification of ornaments. The Ameri-
can delegates were among those favor
ing the rejection.
The main reason that this action was
taken was that the Belgian plan tended
to give less publicity to ornaments. The
experts were appointed in connection
with movement to establish control OF
the manufacture of ornaments, both
governmental and private.
Land Armaments Divided.
The convention draft divides land
ornaments into II categories. but Bel
GUM wanted these reduced to 8 head
ings. They maintained that the classi-
fication of II was impossible to carry
out enthusiastically. The Belgians
failed to convince their colleagues and
the old classification remains as the
basis for the proposed convention for
international supervision and publicity
on all arms manufacture.
A number of states. including Bel
GUM, have been disposed to publish the
weight and cost of ornaments, but not
to give the number of pieces, deeming
that this would too clearly reveal secrets
of national defense. Belgium also
wanted to simplify the designations Of
ornaments for technical reasons.
Commission to Get Report.
The experts will report to the main
commission on ornaments manufacture,
which will meet in August to endeavor
to agree on the convention draft. The
United States delegates here have IA
vored the largest kind Of publication Of
ornaments as constituting one way to
discourage competition and to reduce
ornaments to the minimum compatible
with defense needs.
The American delegates were Capt
George Washington Steele. Maj Charles
c. Mettler. Mai. Barton K Fount. with
Consul Eibridge D. Rand Of Geneva as
counselor.

MOVIE TRUST" SUIT
ENDS IN NEW YORK
Decision Reserved in Case
Brought Under Sherman
Law Charges.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, March 13-The first of
two suits brought by the Government
against an alleged movie trust" COM
prised of many prominent producers
and distributors and ogan2atlons
formed by them. was completed To-Day.
Decision was reserved.
Today's action was brought to force
discontinuance of alleged violations OF
the Sherman antitrust law. The case
dealt with the right of producers ana
distributors to force theater owners TO
assume all uncompleted contracts Tor
pictures existing at the time OF pun
chase or transfer of a theater.
;, Among the defendants we're the Mo-
ton Picture Producers and Distributors
of America. headed by Will Hays: First
National Pictures, Paramount-Famous-
Lasky Corporation, Metro-Goldwyn-
Mayer Distributing Corporation, Uni
versal Films Exchange Co, Fox Films
Corporation. Pathe Exchange, F. B. O.
Pictures Corporation. Vitagraph. Edu-
cational Film Exchange and 80 film
boards of trade throughout the country.
The defendants. represented by for
mer Attorney General George w. Vic
kersham. set forth that in 1927 uncom-
pleted contracts were involved in trans
fers of $3.50 theaters. the amount in
volved being s8,08l 900. Purchasers OF
1927 of these theaters were said to
have refused to assume any part Of
existing contracts. causing the defend
ants losses in excess of $2.370.000.
The defendants said that of the ap-
proximately $4,000 picture houses in
the country several thousands are trans
ferred every year and that many times
transfers have been made for the sole
purpose of "ducking" contracts.
The Government charged that the
defendants had conspired to deprive
theater owners of the right to have any
court decide whether transfers had
been made for the purpose of breaking
contracts and to force arbitration by
their own boards of trade.

accord REACHED
ON WORLD COURT
Root Confers With Washing
ton on Text of Pro.
posed Protocol.

GENEVA. March 13-The interna-
tional jurists, including Elihu Root, are
now in accord concerning all sections
Of the World Court protocol dealing
with the American reservation on ad-
visory opinions.
Mr.. Root, however, is anxious to have
the entire protocol carefully examined
and made to conform to alterations in
Article four, which concerns advisory
opinions, and it may be that the COM
plete draft protocol will not be sub
mitted before tomorrow. 1t is under
stood that Mr.. Root is cabling Wash
ington. as he, naturally. wants to get
text which will prove acceptable to
the administration and Senate.
May Increase Judges.
While awaiting report from Mr..
Root. the subcommittee OF jurists today
DISCUSSED the desirability OF increasing
the number Of judges in the court and
'of Systenaatfzing and strengthening the
tribunal. The tendency of the discus
sion was toward an increase In the
regular judges from il to IS, at the
same time abolishing the positions of
the four deputy justices.
MIR. Root proposed that the tribunal
be two-regular-sesSion court instead
OF one. He also approved the idea OF
an increase In the number of judges.
The subcommittee will report It's rec
concentrations based upon today's sug-
gestion.
League officials say they are convinced
that the protocol for American adhesion
to the court takes into full account the
American reservations, and think that
1t will satisfy the Senate.
Would Consult U. 8.
In supporting the idea OF Sir Cecil
Hurst of Great Britain that consulta-
tons with the United States preferably
take place before the court has received
request for an advisory opinion, sew
eral jurists declared that the court
should be kept free from political mat
tiers and that It was much better to
have the exchanges of views with the
United States while the matter was still
In the hands Of the League Of Nations
Council. Some even thought that Wash
ington should be consulted before the
Council oficially requested an opinion
to determine whether there were OBJ
jections. However, the formula which
has been given preliminary approval
permits an exchange Of views both be-
fore and after the court has received q
request for an advisory opinion.

QUESTION Of control Of four large avia-
ton companies, but Lehman denied
these reports.
IAN rumors and statements that the

Quired any interest whatsoever in any
other companies are entirely unfounded.
1t has been reported that the Aviation
Corporation is about to acquire the con-
trolling interests in various other en-
terprises, and these reports are also in
large part untrue.
Nos 70 Take F0kker Firm.
IAN Illustration of this is the Avia-
ton Corporation of the Americas. in
which the Aviation Corporation has no
intention whatsoever of owning or &C
curing controlling interest, and at the
present time owns no stock.
THE Aviation Corporation also has
no plans for the acquisition of the Fox
ker Co. ~ has been rumored."
James A. Talbot. chairman Of the
Fokker Aircraft Corporation of America
also issued Q statement in which he
said the company was not going to be
absorbed by any other organization.
Control rests with myself and my as
sociates." he said. And Is not for sale. -
Several Companies Mentioned.
The companies mentioned In the Wall
Street reports officially denied by the
aviation corporation chairman are the
Fokker Co, the Fairchild Aviation
Corporation, the Aviation Company of
the Americas and Universal Aviation
Corporation. The same reports said
that besides arranging for controls of
these companies. the Aviation Corpora
ton also was understood TO have made
offers for interests in the Consolidated
Aircraft Corporation of Buffalo, N. Y.
the Stearman Aircraft Corporation of
Wichita. Kans.. and other companies. 1t
also was said the company was thought
to be counting on obtaining rights to
manufacture the engines of Armstrong
Siddeley. Ltd OF England.
The Wall Street reports apparently
were based on the fact that high
officials In several of these companies
are on the board Of the Aviation Cor
poration.
