BRITAIN ORDERS
TROOP EVACUATION
Last Soldier Will Probably Be
Out of RhineIand by
New Year Day.

LONDON, August 80 (P). - The
British war Office issued orders this
afternoon for withdrawal of British
troops from the Rhineland, beginning
September IA. The British evacuation
will be spread over three months, thus
making it probable that the last British
soldier will be out of the Rhineland by
New Year day if not by Christmas.
THE HAGUE, August 30.-Letters
and documents recording the agreement
of France, Great Britain, Italy, Belgium
and Germany on evacuation of the
Rhineland and financial questions in
cident to acceptance of the Young
reparations plan were signed at 1915
pm. today by representatives Of those
nations.
The protocol and other documents in
which will be registered the results of
The Hague conference of the govern
ments will be ready for the approval
this evening and the conference will
adjourn sine die about noon tomorrow.
BRAND to Meet Macdonald.
Aristide BRAND, French premier, was
leaving here at l pm. for Paris. He
expected to meet Premier Macdonald
of Great Britain tomorrow evening
while the latter passed through Paris
en- route to the League Of Nations As
sembly at Geneva.
Several matters will be left to fu-
ture action. either by another govern
mentS' conference or by individual
action of the governments concerned.
Among these were the proposed inter-
national bank of settlement; the repara-
tlons problem as 1t affects the sue
cessors to the Austro- Hungarian empire,
former enemies for private property
sequestered and sold.
These matters will be handled through
the various chancerieS as far as possible
and will be liquidated finally when the
parties to The Hague conference meet
again to ratify the Young plan and
complete organization work of the bank.
Statesmen of Europe assembled here
for the conference of the governments
on reparations believed that in agree
ment on the Young committees repara-
tions plan to replace the Dawes plan
they had done much for the future
peace Of the continent and the world.
Anxious to Depart.
The various national delegations,
faced with but one more plenary session,
tomorrow, were more intent today on
departure than on today's preliminaries
to tomorrow's closing session. Some of
the national representatives who must
go to Geneva next week for the as
sembly of the League of Nations left
here today.
The general atmosphere here, which
was strained almost to the breaking
point during the three weeks confer
ence was one of relief that the days of
crisis were past. There was satisfaction
over achievement of that for which the
conference primarily was convened
that is, approval of the Young plan,
created by the committee of national
financial experts in its four months
Paris session.
The Young plan fixed the German
war debt at certain figure, beyond

VETERANS TO SEEK
DRY REFERENDUM
Resolution Asks That Vote Be
Taken on Repeal of the
18th Amendment.

ST. PAUL, August 80 Cp).-In the
most fiery session of its thirtieth an
nual encampment, the Veterans of For
eign Wars today went on record favor
ing national referendum on the
eighteenth amendment after tabling a
resolution asking for an out-and-out
repeal of the dry constitutional amend
ment.
While dozens of delegates clamored
for the floor at the same time and
the convention went into an uproar, the
two proposals for resolutions received
various shouts of approval and derision.
Finally quieting down, the convention
permitted speakers to take the floor for
and against the resolution.
Louis Glicksman of Revere, Mass,
made a long appeal in favor of the
resolution for national referendum
on the dry law after the resolution
amendment had been defeated by
viva voce vote.
Glicksman took particular issue with
a statement of the retiring chief in
command of the veterans, Eugene P.
Carver, jr., of Boston, who told the
group that neither resolution had any
place before the organization and that
it should limit its business to matters
strictly pertaining to the nature of its
OISdlllDdIlOIl.
Glicksman shouted that elf we had
been given fair shake on the question

GENEVA, August 30.-The question
OF the accession of the United States
to the World Court of International
Justice has been added to the agenda
OF the council Of the League of Nations
which opened its hfty-sixth session
today.
A conference of the signatories to the
World Court statutes is to be held con-
currently with the meetings of the
leagues assembly next week and will
consider proposals for revision of the
statutes and the formula of Elihu Root,
noted American jurist, paving the way
for the possible adhesion of the United
States.
Britain to Play Part.
With the British Labor government
expected to adhere to the compulsory
arbitration clause in the World Court.
the British member today made what
was interpreted generally as statement
indicating that the Labor government
will play an active part in league
activities.
H. Dalton, parliamentary undersec-
retary of state. announced that Great
Britain wishes to see a speeding up Of
ratifications of international treaties
and would raise this question in the
Assembly. Expressing dissatisfaction
with the slowness of ratifications, Mr..
Dalton said that the signatures of con-
ventionS should be a reality and not
merely a device for seeking to support
at Geneva, which are not
necessarily followed up when the dele
gates return home.
Persia Agrees on Gas.
Mohammed Ali Khan Foroughi of
Persia, who is the president of the pres
ent session, announced that Persia had
adhered to the anti-gas protocol.
The Council accepted a grant of
S724,000 from the health division of
tthe Rockefeller Foundation for the
work of the health organization of the
League in 1930-31.
The determination of the Nationalist
government in China to pursue an ac-
tive role in the League was indicated to-
day with the deposit of a check in the
League treasury for 10000 Swiss francs
as China's subscription for 1919. This is
equivalent to about $212,000. It is un-
derstood that China intends to deposit
at later date payments in arrears.

CRUISER REPORT CONFIRMED.

TOXIC, August 80 (P).-Kyro Taxa
rade. japanese naval minister, in a
statement to the Associated Press today,
admitted the essential truth of reports
published here that Japan was consid-
er1ng new program OF auxiliary cruiS-
er construction.
The minister said the reports were
ION the whole true" although the navy's
program had not been definitely and
finally formulated and was subject to
modification according to the progress
of the disarmament discussions and cir
cumstances affecting preparation of the
national budget"
He said the newspaper accounts of
the proposed cruiser program contained
some erroneous figures, but he declined
to say what these we're. The accounts
said the program included four 10000
ton cruisers, Is first-class destroyers
and other vessels at total cost OF
400,000,000 yen Approximately $184,-
000,000), covering six to eight years
and overlapping by two years the pres
ent cruiser program.
The naval minister referred to the
new program as the Cruiser replace
ment program" and said formal an
nouncement was withheld in view OF
the disarmament discussions In London.
IF the program were announced
now," he said, I'VE fear it would hinder
these discussions. There is always
chance 1t would be interpreted as an
improvised paper program with which
to bargain at the next limitation con-
ference"
