APPROVE PUBLICITY
 FOR APARTMENTS
German Delegate Declares Delegates Lose Sight of
 Real Task

Geneva, May 1 R1After France had announced that, in the spirit of concession, it withdrew its proposal to limit war material by the budge- tary system. the preliminary disarm- ament conference today approved the idea of publicity for land arn- aments as the best available solution of this problem.
 Soviet Russia and China voted against the resolution for publicity and Germany abstained from voting.
 Maxim Litvinoff, Soviet delegate. characterized 1t as a step backward. declaring it showed that the pre- paratory commission had renounced the principle of limitation or re- duction of war material. He insisted that publicity put restraint on no one and that all the governments could publish any figures they want ed.
 The resoltion says that the com mission rejected systems of direct limitation of material in service and in stock, and having noted that the system of indirect limitation through limitation of expenditure on material did not meet with general assent. decided that limitation and reduc- tion of material must be sought by means of publicity of expenditure.
 Count Von Bernstorff. German delegate. created . stir by an- nouncing that Germany now washed its hands of the work of the com mission and would leave to the ma jority full and complete responsi- bilfty of preparing for the projected international conference.
 He accused the delegates of hay. ing eliminated the essentials of re- duction of at least land armame nt, and declared the commission had entirely lost sight of its real task. He considered the situation grave. Al the German delegate. however, did not leave the room. the deleeates were under the impression that Germany had no intention of going 70 far as to bolt the commission. During the discussion, Hugh g. Gibson, American representative voiced great satisfaction at Frances concession of the budgetary system. It was on MT. Gibson's request that the commission resorted to . roll call on the publicity resolution.
 The commission adjourned until Monday morning with an agreement thai if wo,ilA then r.s,,o,> A,so,-s>. of naval armaments. At that time the Japanese. British and Americans will recommend adjournment of de- tailed discussion to permit conversa- ticn between the governments of the five biz naval powera

Colebrook, N.

 Estimates of property damages ranged as high $10O,O00 but because of the impossible condition of high. ways and the difficulties of com- munication it was impossible to de- termine the figure with any degree of accuracy.
 Ample warnings which reached the half dozen or more families con- prising the little hamlet of Kidder- ville. nine miles east of this place. undoubtedly resulted in there being no loss of life since the rush of wa ters reduced the site to . mass Of wreckage.

 Marriage "a Mistake"
 The New York American today published a letter written by the young Mrs. Peacox to her mother-in- law giving the 20-year-old wife's reasons for leaving her husband.
 The letter said in part:
 Tt didn't take us long to realize that we had made a mistake. It was two months after we were married that he decided to separate. We found that our natures never could be reconciled.
 We kept up the pretense of beina happy, just for the oid-fashione.l custom of making believe that our marriage was a success. But our life was really a hell on earth. We weren't really man and wife but just fighting pair of foolish kids.' District Attorney Frank H.

 The police were in complete charge of Neukoelln and Wedding districts where 21 persons have been killed and more than 15o injured il: fighting since May day. A state Of siege probably will be maintained in the affected districts until Monday, although disturbances today seemed on the wane.
 Among the dead was an Eng. fish newspaperman, Charles Frau Mackay. representing the Wattara Daily News of New Zealand. Police on Hermanstrasse shot him dead be- fore dawn today when he refused to go back indoors in defiance of their orders permitting no one outside.

Far From Certain That French aud
 Bclgians Will Accept American
 Proposals aad Final Decision Rests With France.
 Paris, May { R-The German and American reparation delegations have reached a full agreement on complete settlement of the repara- ton problem. It remains, however, for the Americans to win the French and Belgian delegations to their plan.
 owen D. Young. chief of the American delegation. today was con- ferring with the delegations of the other creditor nations to this end. The British and the Japanese delegations were stated authorita- lively to have approved the settle ment. leaving France and Belgium particularly, and possibly Italy, dis senting.
 The final decision of course rest ed with France, far and away the largest creditor.
 If conferences today are favorable it was believed there will be a plen- ary session Monday. when repara- ton experts who have left Paris will have returned.
 It was said there naturally were many details yet to be arranged but that the broad outline of the plan was we'll defined.
 It was far from certain the French and Belgians would accent the American proposals. The French point of view is that they presented an irreducible minimum claims to- tai, based on what they must pay 70 America, plus only fraction of what they have spent for repara- tions.
 Premier Poincare has declared publicly that France cannot make further sacrifices and it was cont mented that even if the French eX- perts approved the American plan in order to dispose of the vexing problem it was most probable par liament and the government would reject the proposed settlement.
 Text of the Proposals
 Paris, May 1 R-Proposals vari- ously described as 'evolved'' and endorsed by the American delega. ton to the reparation conference have been placed before Dr. Hjal. mar schacht and his German con. freres. it was understood today. and are being considered by them.

Englewood, N. J.. May N- Many varied rumors as to the time and place of the approaching mar riaSe of Colonel Charles A. Lind hcrgh and Miss Anne Morrow were rife today. but complete silence wal maintained by all interested parties
 Rumors were that 1t would take place in Paris; at the Morrow sum. mer home at North Haven, Me: and at the Morrow home here, and that 1t would be ~Aarlier than the June date tentatively set. But on none oi these rumors would members of the Morrow family or Colonel Lindbergh comment.
 Strength to the report that an early marriage was planned was seen in the departure from her home in Detroit of Mrs. Evangeline Lind' bergh, the Coloners mother. Hel destination could not be learned and at her home comment was refused on reports that che was coming on a visit to the Morrow home here.
 That Colonel Lindbergh, however was planning an early airplane flight was indicated in & report from Mitchell Field. Long Island. that his Curtiss Falcon -biplane had been overhauled. fueled and prepared foI immediate service. Lindbergh said recently 1t was possible he might make . cross country trip shortly over the proposed lines of the trans , continental air transport, with which he is connected.
 The colonel was a dinner guest al the Morrow home last night. He arrived shortly before p. m. and left about Is minutes later with Mfsi Morrow for a 3O-minute ride in his automobile. On their return Lind. bergh smiled and waved his hat tc the assembled newspapermen and photographers but did not stop.
 Guests at the dinner included Gen. eral and Mrs. J. J. Morrow. Mrs t Charles Long, Cutter of Cleveland mother of Mrs. Dwight W. Morrow Mrs. Stanley Yates. Miss Elizabeth Morrow and two men whose name' were not learned.
 The Morrow home. situated vel back from the street in thickly woode destate of between 30 and %t acres, continued under heavy guard , to keep away the curious. Fou1 policemen were on duty on thu grounds examining every vehicle that entered and fifth stood guard on the front porch. ..
