Mrs. Brady did not learn of the

She went to her husbands cell at

this would not be a defense in itself,
but evidence of temporary insanity
caused by liquor can be pleaded in
mitigation of punishment.

Toxic Delegate Replies to

PUBLIC PRESSURE SEEN
FORCING DISARMAMENT
Commission Admits Weaknesses
in Draft Convention Now
Nearing Completion.
BY the Associated Press.

GENEVA, November 22.-Hugh 8.
Gibson, speaking for the United States,
today told the Preparatory Disarmament
Commission that full exchange of in
formation regarding war materials was
essential to the success of any disarm-
ament treaty.
The United States, he said, already
employees system Of full publicity and
exchange of information.
His statement was made in the course
of speech supporting Dutch pro-
posal to this effect. The Canadian
delegation also sponsored the policy.
Japan in Opposition.
N. Sato, the japanese delegate, how
ever, declared that Japan could not
accept any such exchange of informa-
ton, which he considered as contrary
to the interests of national defense.
Obligations under Article 8 of the
League Of Nations Covenant he inter-
preted as permitting a country always
to consider It's defense requirements.
Gen. De Marinis withdrew Italyis res
ervation, made at a previous session Of
the committee, and threw his support
to the Dutch plan for an annual report
of all arms and ammunition in service
and reserve.
The entire question was finally
referred to q subcommittee, which in
cluded representatives Of the United
States and other large powers.
Exuect Treaty Pressure.
Although realizing the deficiencies of
the draft disarmament convention which
Is now nearing completion. the COM
mission hopes that the force OF public
opinion may cure some Of its more
obvious defects.
For the most part the delegates ex-
pect further advance by world opinion,
before the General Disarmament Con-
ference meets, which will force the
governments into adoption Of more
radical views in favor of disarmament.
Economic pressures OF tax burQers and
an increasing adherence OF war are
cited as the chief factors supporting
this expectation.
Lord Cecil and Maxim Litvinoff,
Soviet commissar for foreign affairs,
both have told the commission of their
faith in the efficacy of popular senti-
ment to achieve an improvement in
the commissions own work. While the
Russians tireless fight to insert the
word reduction" into the treaty for the
most part seems to have failed, M.
Litvinoff himself appears undaunted.
He relies upon his agitation here before
the commission and before the well
populated press section to stir up public
interest in the cause OF disarmament

CHANGE RACKET CHARGE
GETS SOLDIER 1870 DAYS
Private at Boiling Field Convicted
After Case Had Been Put
Of Five Times.

soldier, stationed at Boiling Field, oper-
ator of what police called a change
racket" was sent to jail for 1870 days in
Police Court today by Judge John p
Mcmahon.
Judge Mcmahon found the soldier
guilty after the case had been post
poned on five different occasions be-
cause of Welton's request that records
of Boiling Field and a well known pre-
paratory school where the young man
attended be brought to court to prove
he was not the man police sought and
identified as the change racket" man.
Welton was recently indicted by the
grand jury on a robbery count.
Police said Welton called numerous
drug aad grocery stores requesting that
small amount of goods and change
be sent to him. When the delivery boy
arrived Welton would take the change,
telling the boy he would pay him In a
short while, and disappear.
Welton was arrested by third precinct
police more than month ago and has
been confined to jail since. Due to
this, Judge Mcmahon cut 81 days from
his sentence.
