BACKING GIVEN
HOOVER STAND
ON SEA TREATY
Atlantic Pact Is Sought by
AriStide BRAND, Is
Indication.
BY WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS
scripps-Howard Foreign Editor


LONDON, Feb. ia general OF
Atlantic pact, based on the four
power Pacific treaty binding the
signatory nations IN the event Of
threat of war, TO confer on what
might be done jointly or separately,
to meet the situation, is, am in
formed, the hope of Aristide BRAND
Frances grand old man Of peace.
Such an understanding, backed by
America, would, understand, not
only satisfy France and insure the
success of the conference, but would
translate into action, President
Hoover's Armistice day declaration
BRAND, the co-partner with for
mer Secretary Kellogg in framing
the pact outlawing war, takes the
same view as President Hoover.
Extension Of the Pacific pact TO
other seas while binding the sigma
tories to no specific action, never
theless would provide a much
needed agency for a joint scrutiny
Of threatened conflict. At the same
lime it would afford coohng-of
period and give public opinion
4 chance to swing into action.
Make France Safer
I am told this is Brands vision.
It's realization would make France
feel safer and warrant q reduction
in her tonnage demands.
On the other hand, without some
such agreement, France feels she
must look after her own defenses.
Such an understanding would per-
NIT the United States no more than
she already is permitted in the Pa
cific.
The Pacific pact binds its mem
bers to respect each others rights
In that region and TO confer upon
a Joint or separate course OF action
in event of a threat of war.
To Include Atlantic
This could be made to include the
Atlantic, or even all seas, without
the slightest danger of involving the
United States anymore than she Is
involved already.
IN fact, II WOulO Sll S4ISIAi
Americas position especially in the
region Of the Caribbean and Panama
canal. where France and Britain
have islands.
Under it. America could act or not,
alone or with other powers as the
situation demanded
Backed by Acts
Peace can not live on slogans and
academic theory alone, as Presl-
dent Hoover declared on Armistlce
day. 1t must be backed by acts,
and while we have Outlawed war
and agreed to settle all controversies
with other nations by pacific
means. he said the machinery Tor
this is not yet adequate.
we need" the President SAID
pointedly. further to extend our
treaties with other countries, pro-
viding methods for reference of con-
troversies to conference, 70 inquiry
as to fact or to arbitration, or to
judicial determination"
But until these things are bet
ter co-ordinated. the President
frankly warned that we must keep
our powder dry.
vhis is precisely the attitude Oh

SEES BIG BUSINESS
IN AUTO INDUSTRY

A rosy picture of business conditions
for 1880 in connection with the local
automobile industry was painted last
night at a meeting of the Washington
Automotive Trade Association at the
Racquet Club.
A report to this effect was made by
Chester H. Warrington, chairman of
the associations commercial activities
committee. Mr.. Warrington based his
report on the fact that the regiStra-
ton of automobiles in the District of
Columbia shows an increase at the
present time over last year, and that
$50 more used cars have been sold
over the same period of 1929.
The organization dropped its inten-
ton of comforting with the heads of the
local traction companies in regard to
advertising on the street cars that
the use of them would eliminate
parking difficulties. 1t was the sense
the street cars we're only stating what
everybody knew and that it was in no
way unfair to the automotive industry.
1t was announced that w. A. T. A.
will issue a bulletin to all dealers to
familiarize their customers with what
may and what may not be deducted
from the Federal income tax as relating
to automobile ownership. Plans for elm
mating unsafe cars from the streets of
the city were outlined in a general way
by the traffic committee. Proposed mo-
tor vehicle inspection campaigns were
discussed by the committees chairman,
Paul Lum.
A final report of the automobile show
committee was made by its chairman
and director, Rudolph Jose.

Delegate Ashton c. Dovell, Chairman
OF the appropriations committee, while
Hall, m turn, led the fight against the
Doven bill for commission to study
the question.
In advocating the passage of the

date steps should be taken to protect

declared, 1T is high time we do some

Dovell declared that If the original

the fault of the teachers themselves
and not OF the General Assembly. THAT
is their own bill, prepared by them. .
he said, land the General Assembly
took them at their word when they said
that 1t would benefit them to the ex-

the teachers than there is to pension

said that the appropriations committee

who have retired until the commission

COUNTY ENABLING
MEASURE is PASSED
Reid Bill Providing Vote on
Changing Rule o. KID by
Virginia House.
BY LESTER N. INSKEEP.
STAFF Correspondent of The Star,

RICHMOND, Va, March 4.-The
necessity for immediate acton having
been caused by the passage of joint
resolution that no more bills of a gen.
eral nature be considered after today,
the House of Delegates yesterday
passed the Reid county government
enabling bill. thereby clearing the CAL
endar of that body with respect to
legislation specifically affecting the
Northern Virginia area. The Senate at
the same time passed the bill to provide
a new charter for the town of Oc-
coquan.
BY the adoption of the resolution
last week both houses of the General
Assembly limited until today the time
for consideration by each house of its
own bills, SO that the rest of the week
can be devoted by the House to the
passage of Senate bills and of the
Senate to the passage of House bills.
Up to the present time no Northern
Virginia bills have been acted upon by
both houses.
Up to Senate.
The passage of the enabling bill,
which was introduced by Delegate Hugh
Reid, leaves but one more step to be
taken-paSSage by the Senate-in the
for a referendum vote on change of
government. Since there was not a
dissenting vote in the House, Delegate
Reid and Senator Frank L. Ball ex-
pect no opposition in the Senate.
Under the provisions of the bill the
voters of Arlington County may, by
obtaining the required number of sig
natures, petition the judge of the cir
cult court to set date for an election
to determine three questions:
First-Whether there shall be change
in the present government.
Second-If there is such a change,
whether a commission form will be
adopted.
Third--If there is such a change,
whether county manager form shall
be adopted
Alternative Plan.
The alternative or city manager plan,
provides for like commission which
would administer all of the legislative
powers of the county, but would function
through the city manager. The city
manager would appoint all officers and
employees, subject to the approval of the
council.
There is still another exclusive Nor
thern Virginia bill that has passed the
House and is now on the Senate cal
endar, the Reid bill for the creation of
County Court for Arlington County
This bill was passed by the House on
Saturday and should be the first local
House bill to be given consideration by
the Senate.
Another important measure passed
yesterday by the House provides for the
appropriation of $3.50 yearly to aid in
the education of the orphans of veter-
ans losing their lives during the World
War. The fund will be administered by
the State board of education, which may
assign as much as $3.50 yearly to such
orphan desiring a college education, the
educational institution to furnish free
tuition.

the floor. 1t was short-lived. however,
the House refusing to dispense with
the constitutional reading This killed

THE bill provided for voluntary re-
