MISUNDERSTANDING FEARED.
Secretary Stimson Hopes to Avoid Irri-
tation Over Anglo American Stand.
By BYRON PRICE'
Associated Press Stan Writer.

Associated Press SLaH WEl6eEs
8. S. GEORGE WASHINGTON, jan
nary 15.-It seems certain that the
Anglo-American feature OF the 1orth-
coming London Naval Conference nego-
tiations will have a prominent place In
the discussions, beginning with the ar
rival of the American delegation IN
England Friday.
American Secretary Of State and head
of the delegation, is not disclosing his
plans. it is not improbable that he and
RAMSAY Macdonald, British premier,
will discuss in advance OF the CONFER
ence recent indications of irritation
among the other powers at the close
cooperation of the British and Amer.
lean Governments in the inception OF
the forthcoming negotiations.
The American delegation feels strong
" that such irritation is not JUSTIFIED
and that Col Stimson may take the first
opportunity to reasSure others that the
two nations enter the conference I'M
bound by any agreement except 70 WCrk
toward the common end OF naval I'M
itation.
Agreement Misunderstood.
After Premier Macdonald's visit to
President Hoover Col. StimSon publicly
denied suggestions abroad that an eff
fort would be made to bring the con-
ference under Anglo-American domino
ton. A misunderstanding seems to
have arisen in some quarters also re-
garding status Of the parity agreement.
1t can be said authoritatively that,
while agreement in principle has been
reached by the two nations, there Is
still division of thought as to the exact
cruiser strength allowable and some
points of difference remain respecting
battleships.
Secretary Stimson feels it would be
most unfortunate il any one entered the
conference under a wrong impression on
these subjects. In talks with heads OF
the other delegations before the opening
of the conclave Tuesday he undoubtedly
will reject most vigorously any hint OF
a Joint Anglo-American understanding
as to general limitation plan for all the
powers.
With the George Washington speeding
eastward in the hope OF reaching Ply
mouth late tomorrow night, the Amerl-
can delegates are becoming involved In
preliminary plans for their reception.
After a radio exchange yesterday Col.
Stimson left it to Ambassador Dawes
whether any formal governmental well
come would be appropriate on the night
of the landing.
Reach No Decision.
The subject was considered at con-
ference of Col. Stimson, Ambassador
Morrow, Capt. Randall Of the ship and
others, but no decision was reached.
After an interim OF comparatively
smooth sailing indications today were
that a storm was ahead. Capt. Randall
was not positive that he would be able
to make port before early morning Fri
day. In that event the delegation prob
ably would leave Plymouth for Londor
at about o'clock Friday morning.

self, with the understanding that in
case the man was found not guilty he
would be recommended for pay.
The man In the case was John VIII
liam Smith, an employe Of the Quarter
master Corps, at the New York General
Depot, Brooklyn, N. Y. He was
suspended from duty without pay on
July 8, 1929. pending the outcome Of
an investigation by the United States
Attorney. The quartermaster general
approved the recommendation that the
man be suspended for 90 days, but he
added the Recommendation that the
suspended enploye should be entitled
to This regular compensation during
the period Of suspension in the event
that he was not proved guilty Of the
charges preferred against him."

The trunk was almost packed

Well, she would tell him to wait.
She took the receiver off the hook

I come up?"
The world. according to the phi
losophy of Bonnie Thompson, was
divided into two classes, sapS and
wise guys. There was no well-de-
fined line of demarcation between
the two.
Yesterdays sap was today's wise
guy, and today's wise guy was to-
morrow's sap. 1t was neither hard
work nor intellectual brilliance that
advanced the sap or retarded the
wise guy.
Luck! That's all it was; plain,
ordinary dumb luck. Equip a guy
with that md he had everything.
Hard work was good enough for
people who didn't know any better,
but one who had looked sanely at
the world knew that person could
work all his life and never have
enough left over from the pay en-
velope to buy himself rolls.
Take himself, for instance. There
wasn't a dancer on Broadway that
could do more stuff than Bonnie
Thompson. Plenty of personality
too. But here he was in the chorus,
doing stage managing on the side,
and all he knocked off for himself
was three quarters of yard

dough.

IN dragging down eight hundred

stuff on the side. And Rollie didn't
have anything that Bonnie couldn't
do twice as well.
Was it hard work that made 8
headliner out of Rollie? Not a BIT
of it. He fell into something, just
as George Cohan was lucky. Look
at all the big guys in the theater
or in politics or in business.
Analyze the careers of all the big
ones in any racket and you discov-
cred that Lady Luck did it all. They
just happened to be around when
she got ready to do her stuff.
OF course you had to keep your
eyes open. You had to recognize
the old girl when she gave you the
nod.
But the biggest dumb-bell on
earth ought to be able to see some
thing when it's right in front of
him. And he, Bonnie Thompson
had his eyes open.
At that, though, he didn't see
Lady Luck any too clearly. She
was there, all right, but he couldn't
tell which way she pointed, nor I'M
derstand what words her lips
framed.
But-he reluctantly conceded this
you couldn't expect Lady Luck to
do all the work. Perhaps luck
wasn't everything, after all; maybe

LABOR REVEALS
OPPOSITION TO
JUDGE PARKER

WASHINGTON, Mar. 20. U.P)-
Federal Judge John j. Parker
"placed property rights above the
superior to human rights" the Am
erican Federation of Labor charged
in a formal statement of it's oppos-
ition to his confirmation to be a
justice of the United States Su-
preme Court, last night.
The statement, issued by William
Green, federation president, refer.
red specifically to an injunction
granted in 1927 forbidding union
operators to solicit members among
the non-union miners under "yel-
low dog" contracts in West Virgin
ia.
"This injunction showed that
Judge Parker placed property rights
above and superior to human
rights" Green said.
"The Officers and members of the
American Federation of Labor be-
lieve that the attitude shown by
Judge Parker in this injunction case
reveals a judicial state of mind
which totally unfits him for service
as a member of the Supreme Court
Of the United States"
Federation leaders are expected
to appear next week before mem
bers of the judiciary subcommittee
named to investigate the nomina-
tion.
