BERLIN CHEERS
FRENCRMEN ON
|. PEACE MISSION
Won Hindenburg Cordial to
Laval and BRAND as
Crowds DeCry War.
BY FREDERICK KUN
United Press STAFF Correspondent

BERLIN, Sept. 28.-President Paul
Won .Hinbenburg, leader of Ger
many's armies against France and
her allies in the World war, re-
ceived Frances official emissaries of
good will, Premier Pierre Laval and
Foreign Minister Aristide BRAND,
today
1t was the first time that Hin
denburg had received active French
statesmen and the first visit of
French premier and foreign minis
ter to Berlin since long before the
war.
The aged president conversed with
the Frenchmen for half an hour.
The conversation was very friendly.
The French Ambassador Andre
Francois-Poncet and the presidents
secretary of state, DR.. Meissner,
acted as interpreters.
Shape Peace Committee"
1t was reported here last week
that France had annulled the war
criminal list" upon which Won Hin
denburg and the former kaiser had
prominent places. This was denied
in Paris, where Laval explained that
the list had not been brought into
international negotiations since
1920, but never had been annulled.
Formation of permanent COM
mittee to smooth out Franco-Ger-
man relations was expected today
after the French good will min
listers" popular reception in a city
resembling an armed camp.
Laval and BRAND had agreed with
Chancellor Heinrich Bruening and
Foreign Minister Julius Curtius on
the formation of the committee.
They were continuing their con-
versations today.
Thousands OF police guarded the
Friedrichstrass railway station
and adjacent streets before the ar
rival of the French statesmen.
Frenchmen Are Cheered
A large crowd assembled to greet
BRAND and Laval and waited i'm
patiently outside the police lines.
Cries of mo more wars" were
heard as the crowd cheered the
visiting statesmen. Finally, the
throng broke through the police
lines. BRAND and Laval received an
ovation as they passed to their
hotel
Laval appeared on a balcony at
the Adlon soon after he reached the
hotel and was GREETED by new roar
of cheering. The only demonstra-
ton of hostility came from an
unidentified German in the crowd,
who shouted Down with Briand"
Three policemen seized him be-
fore he could shout anything else
and escorted him to the next
corner, where he was released and
told to leave the neighborhood.

A s the legionnaires came back
L n from the national convention
at Detroit over the weekend, they
told the inside story of how the In
diana delegation voted "a to Il for
the referendum on prohibition.
1t is rather interesting in view of
the fact that Ralph Gates Of Co
lumbia City was picked by G. o. P.
politicians to be state commander
at the Anderson convention several
weeks ago.
First get this point: Proxies for
absentee delegates can not be cast
at legion convention.
Now for the yarn. When the
question of how to vote on the
resolution demanding a nationwide
referendum on prohibition came up
for discussion, three members Of the
delegation demanded caucus.
They we're John Hano, new
Twelfth district commander; Frank
McHale, former state commander,
and Otto Ray.
Gates refused to accede to this
and was joined by Floyd L. Young
of Vincennes, outgoing state COM
mander.
The battle ragged for a day and
then, while on the floor of the con-
vention, the three "wets" forced a
oouc,tc RIGHT there
The vote was II to IS for the
referendum, twelve delegates being
absent
Gates attempted to cast the
votes of the absentees against the
referendum, they say And Young
joined with him.
Then a storm broke loose in the
delegation.
Hano, McHale and Ray, assisted
by the fourteen who had voted with
them, refused to permit such &C
ton to be taken and declared that
either the vote be divided as it
should be, or the poll already taken
be reported.
The argument lasted for while
and finally Gates had to give in
and permit the vote to be cast, "a
to 81.
II n
Gates timidity, of course, has
political significance.
AS Republican chairman of the
old Twelfth district, he had been
inculcated with the belief that it is
dangerous politically to be wet in
Indiana and he shrunk from taking
slap at the professional drys.
But with his hand forced, he
could do nothing except plan alibis.
If not for the efforts of Gates and
Young, the pro-referendum vote in
the Hoosier delegation would have
been larger, it is pointed out.
AS it is, the damage has been
done and the drys now are on the
defensive.

life and animation in it. Chit
fon particularly does not crush
badly, and is about the coolest
material you can wear. There
are many smart suits in the
Washington shops of these
sheer fabrics, most Of them in
small prints of white with
brown, navy or black. Some
times they combine other colors
and are trimmed in color. They
may be two-piece, a dress and

pieces. a skirt and jacket of
