RECONCILIATION SEEN
FOR CAROL AND HELEN
Despite Denials, Rumanian Farm
ers Believe Peace Is Around
the Corner.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BUCHAREST, Rumania, october Is.
The persistent rumors of reconcilia-
tion between King Carol and former
Queen Helen of Rumania today over
shadowed the interest of the capital in
the 1lth birthday anniversary Of their
sox, Prince Michael, the youngest for
mer King in Europe.
Despite all denialS, the populace, espe-
cially the farmers with whom Princess
Helen is very popular, still believe peace
between her and Carol is just around
the corner. They were more than ever
convinced of this by the mystery and
excitement of the former Queens unan-
nounced arrival in the capital yesterday.
The princess was apparently un1n-
tereSted, however in what was going
on outside Ciselef Palace, her residence,
and had no other desire at the mo-
ment than to make her son happy on
his birthday.
Since early morning, she has been re-
ported preparing the birthday table for
the lad, expected from the royal resi-
dence at Sinaia during the forenoon.
In Princess Helen's living room was
table with circle of IL burning
candles with twelfth larger candle in
the middle indicating that the prince
was entering his twelfth year. There
was also a large birthday cake and
various presents brought from London.

NO PRELIMINARY FARLEY.
Plan for Four Power Conference May
Be Dropped.

LONDON. October 25 (P)-Disarma-
ment negotiations appeared today to
have taken a new turn with growing
conviction in informed circles that the
plan for a preliminary four-power con-
ference at London or Geneva. proposed
by the British government, will be
dropped.
There was comment this morning
that Germany seems determined not to
be drawn back into negotiations at
Geneva whether four powers or many
powers are participating. and that there
is little chance that the meeting will
be held elsewhere.
Invitations extended by the British
government have not yet been with
drawn. however.
Conversations between Prime Min
ister Ramsay Macdonald and Norman
Davis. the American representative at
Geneva. meanwhile, understood to-
day to have brought the United States
and Great Britain closer to complete
agreement on disarmament than at any
time recently.
1t was pointed out, however, that any
arrangement, which may be announced
mere as result OF tNeSe ldlkS Will De
subject to concessions by European
powers, particularly as to land disarma-
ments
There might possibly be a statement
Thursday, it was understood, if the two
statesmen consider such joint pro-
nouncement would assist negotiations
1t is understood the two talked over
the whole field of ornaments, includ-
ing proposed strengths of units of cate
gories of ships and armies. 1t was be-
lieved Great Britain and the United
States generally could work out their
own defense problems, each building
the kind of navy it desires within the
ratios of the London treaty.

natl Gas e. Electric c.. for 5000
shares of its common stock, the Co.
lumbia Gas & Electric Corporation

there had been IAN apparent write-up"
of $50 60000 900 in the Union Gas & Elec-
trio Cos stock
Robert E. Healy, commission counsel,
today asked Ryder if any of the write
up was reflected in the cost of the Gin
cinnati Gas g. Electric Co. to the Co
lumbia Gas & Electric Corporation.
.'Yes, about $50 900 000," Ryder said.
Ryder testified that in 1928 when the
Columbia Power Co. and the Cincinnati
Gas G. Electric Co. were merged. the Co
lumbia Gas g. Electric Corporation

ouiring them SIS, 1861 .437 which included

STUDYING
HUNGER MARCHES
New Chief Hopes to Formu.
late Policy Dealing With
D. c. Invasions.

Maj. Ernest w. Brown, superintend-
ent of police, announced today he PLAN
ned to give serious" consideration to
the policy to be followed by the Police
Department in dealing with hunger
marchers" and others who might come
to Washington this Winter to petition
Congress for relief
Before reaching a decision. Mai.
Brown said he proposed to confer with
Government as well as District officials.
because, If reports of contemplated pill
grimages to Washington are true, a
serious situation will exist.
Has Not Had Enough Time.
In office only two days, Maj Brown
said he had not had time to give at
tention to any policy or plans in con-
nection with the coming of the hunger
marchers, but he proposed to do so at
the first opportunity.
The coming of any large group to
Washington this Winter will present a
serious situation and demands serious
attention" he said. AT the present
time, however, l have no definite plans,
but plans must and will be perfected"
Maj. Brown disclosed, however, that
Inspector Frank S. w Burke, chief Of
detectives, for some time has been gath
erlng information from various parts Of
the country on proposed Winter
marches" TO Washington. Police de-
partments in other cities. as well as the
Department of Justice and the Secret
Service, have been asked to cooperate
in keeping the Detective Bureau advised
as to developments.
Ban Still in Effect.
The order Of the Commissioners of
June 80, directing the Police Depart
ment to prevent groups of persons from
coming into the District unless 1t be
established that such bodies or groups of
persons have a lawful purpose in COM
ing" is still in effect, although its legal
ity has been questioned in some
quarters.
Maj. Brown declared that under ex-
isting law citizens have right to come
to Washington to petition Congress and
he doubted whether the police had a
legal right to stop them.
There might be an investigation to
determine whether a person is likely to
become a public charge. he said. and if
so, that person could be claSsed as a
vagrant. In such a case, he explained,
it would be matter for the courts to
determine. but if hundreds Of persons
are involved, it would be too difficult
even tor the courts TO handle.

JAPAN TO OFFER
ARMS CUT SCHEME

Weapons-first, submarines. and. second
cruisers and destroyers. This first item
involved disagreement with the Amer
ican and British contention.
1t is further understood the proposals
are confined to naval limitation. The
Japanese army, deeply involved in
Manchuria, was represented as being
disinclined either to agree to the sweep
ing cuts proposed by President Hoover
or to offer alternatives.
The foreign Office said Japanese rep
resentatives at Geneva were fully en-
powered to deal with the suggestion
there that the present years naval holi-
day be extended for four months. It
was believed the delegation will accept
without further reference to Toxic.
The Associated Press informant de-
clined to suggest any points wherein
the japanese naval reduction scheme
differs from American or British pro-
pcsals, but the general trend of japanese
naval policy is well enough known to
indicate visible fundamental disagree
ments that are likely to further compli-
cate the work of the Disarmament
Conference.
