Hearst Asks Mayor Walker To Resign
 And Run Again
The Mayor Has Not Yet Decided What He Will Do-He and His Att0r= ney Will Probably Wait to See What Roosevelt Does in Future

New York, Sept 1-(UP)-May- or James J. Walker was reported today to be considering William Randolph Hearst's editorial sug- gestion that he resign and run for reelection.
 The mayor has made no com ment on the suggestion, and John J. Curtin, his counsel, has said he will await Gov. Franklin D. Roose- velt's next move before indicating what course he will take.
 The mayor, however, has made reservations on the Empire State Limited for Albany tomorrow in- dicating he plans to attend the hearing scheduled for 1880 p. m.
 One uncertain factor in the situation if the mayor were to re- sign is the difference of opinion over his running for reelection. Legal experts disagree on whether he could be a candidate next Mo- vember or wait until the next re- gular mayoralty election in Mo- vember 1893.
 Governor Roosevelt's procedure at future hearings is likely to have considerable bearing on may or Walkers action. The gover- nor's right to hold hearing was upheld as constitutional by su- preme Court Justice Ellis J. Staley but the procedure was criticized as

His sister Alice got in on the play. Theodore finally promised to come home.
 The move aroused widespread comment as a campaign stunt. In- quiries were received as to wheth- CT his salary as governor general would continue and whether he would come home at government expense.

 Versailles Treaty
German Demand for Equal- ity of Armaments Has Stirred Up the French Nation - Officials Are Now Considering the Demands
BY FREDERICK KUH

Limited Press Staff COrrespondent)
 Berlin, Sept l. (w) = Ger many's "big push" against the Yer. sailles peace treaty was on in full force to-day.
 The German demand for equal- ity in armaments, made through 8 memorandum to the French gov- ernment, was considered the most important onslaught on Versailles since the unsuccessful effort to con- clude a German-Austrian customs union.
 The partial scrapping of repara- tions at the Lausanne conference was interpreted here as further crumbling of the Versailles system. Germanys position is that If the world powers cannot achieve rad- ical, worldwide disarmament, the German army must be remodelled in proportion with the military evolution of other countries.
 A government spokesman reem- phasized that the memorandum contained no detailed technical repatterning of the German armed forces, but was limited to a dis cussion of principles. Chief among these was the argument that Ger. many must be allowed what is con- ceded to other nations.
 The spokesman said the conver-
