JAHNCKE TO SPEAK
In RADIO FORUM
Assistant Secretary Will Discuss
Past, Present and Future Of
American Navy Tonight.

Ernest Lee Jahncke, Assistant Secre-
tary Of the Navy, engineer, shipbuilder,
yachtsman and personal friend of Presi-
dent Hoover, will speak on 1.-THE Past,
Present and Future of the American
Navy" in the National Radio Forum,
arranged by, The Evening Star and
sponsored by the Columbia Broadcast
ing System, beginning at o'clock TO-
night.
Long interested In the Navy through
his drydocks in New Orleans, Mr..
Jahncke has intimate knowledge of
the trends of the navies Of the world
ton can speak authoritatively of what
has gone before, Is going on now and
is to come with respect to the coun-
try's first line of defense.
Timely Is his subject, too, with the
world watching the negotiations now
under way between the United States
and Great Britain toward policies that
will allow further limitation Of naval
ornaments.
Mr.. Jahncke has been in the con-
ferences that have been held in the
Navy Department and at the White
House on the policy to be followed in
the negotiations with Great Britain and
should have q message Of considerable
import as to just what this country
expects to do with its Navy.
One of the first members of the orig
inal Hoover for President group of
public men, Mr.. Jahncke, was active
in the Presidents campaign, and was
recognized as the Hoover leader in
Louisiana. His candidate safely elected,
he settled down to the conduct Of his
affairs in New Orb ans only to, find
his friend the President so earnestly
in need of his services in Washington
as to draft him for the high Navy post.
He took the post at considerable per-
sonal sacrifice, and has been, since
March, a prodigious worker for his
chief, Secretary of the Navy Charles
Francis Adams.

dent is saving his energy for the after
noon. when he will draft the male
members of his party for the manual
labor necessary for the completion CT
one of the dams which he started In
Laurel Greek last week end.
Rains in that section during the last
"a hours made the motor trip from
Washington to the mountains more en-
joyable than was the case last week.
when the dust from the dirt roads
detracted considerable from the plea
sure and comfort Of the party. The
night was cool and it is understood that
most of the members Of the party called
for an extra blanket when they retired.

DEBT Intervention
BY MCDONALD SEEN
IN HURRIED FLIGHT
Continued From First Page.)

DR.. Stresemann has stilled much Of his
opposition at Berlin with the promise
he would obtain Rhineland evacuation
at The Hague. Conversations on the
point have advanced to q far point and
evacuation might actually be expected
before many months, but With the
Young plan in allegiance 1t may be de-
layed for long time.
M. Brands new government has
never met storm in the Chamber OF
Deputies, which voted ratification OF the
American debt settlement by q bare
plan payments would be used to make
the payments to America.
The plenary session fixed for today
has been postponed until Monday and
many of the delegates saw ray OF hope
in that fact.
Louis Locheur, French delegate and
minister Of labor. stated that Mr.. Snow
den's rejection Of the second Horsepower
body was still working to bring about q
compromise and that despair for the
future Of the conference was unjustified.
M. Locheur admitted, however, that
the French delegation planned to go
home on Monday.
Last night all delegates attended a
sumptuous feast given by Queen VIII
helmina and despite difficulties Of
formality and diplomatic protocol which
at times has seemed inSurmountable 1t
was a merry affair which seemed to
brighten the atmosphere.
Premier BRAND and Chancellor
Snowden had lunch together today.

or Serve Fifteen Days
in Jail.

John p. Mcmahon, who said that he
would do all in his power toward break
ing UP the habit OF many automobile
dealers OF the city in requesting persons
from whom they buy cars to leave the
license plates on them and then selling
the cars with the same tags on, took
the first step in this direction today
when he sentenced c. w. Hodges,
dealer, of 1923 Fourteenth street. to
pay $25 or serve IS days for this
offense.
The Judge issued a summons for
Hodges yesterday after Thomas E..
Mitchell, 1910 Massachusetts avenue,
had been fined for failing to turn in
his tags and another man had been
convicted of driving on dead tags after
buying the same Car from the dealer.
Hodges was the first dealer to be
summoned for this offense, but the
magistrate issued warning that 1t
won't be the last II the practice is con-
tinued.
The charge made against the man
was that Of leaning tags.

But Says Agreement Not Yet Ready for
Public Discussion.
BY the Associated Press.
ELGIN, Scotland, August 24.-Deh-
mite assurance that the Anglo-American
negotiations for naval reduction have
favorably advanced was given yesterday
by Gen. Charles G. Dawes in a speech
here. At the same time he warned
that they have not necessarily reached
the proper stage for public discussion
in detail
I'VE must realize" he said, 'that the
one unforgivable thing now would be
inadequate preparation for the proposed
naval conference"
Although the American Ambassador
and Prime Minister Macdonald met
once again here yesterday, 1t was In
ceremonious circumstances which did
not lend themselves to continuance OF
the naval conversations begun at the
neighboring town of Forces soon after
the arrival of the Ambassador in Eng
land.
Macdonald Avoids Subject.
The prime minister. who was made
a burgess of the town, spoke only or
local topics, but Gen. Dawes brought
up the subject that was in every ones
mind. The Ambassador returned to
London last night and the premier fol-
lowed this morning.
