PARIS, Jan. 2. - General Paul Gerald Pau, noted French war Com mander, died here today.
 When the crushed and beaten armies of France returned to what was left of their dismembered country after the Franco-Prussian war of 1870, there was among them a young officer-Paul Gerald Pau who had entered the service as a cadet and fought his way through to captaincy.
 If there was one man with those retreating defenders whose spirit was unconquered, his name was Captain Pau. Maimed and sad dened though he was, he could not feel for a moment that his beloved France was vanquished. Her ulti- mate triumph, he believed, had merely been postponed and the day would yet come when he could face again those powerful invaders from the North.
 Through the long years that ln- tervened between 1870 and 1914, he took his place as one of the most patient and confident of the archi- tects who planned and prepared for a return match with the victors. During this period he had ad- vanced at steady pace until he became, in 1911, Brigadier Gen. eral and a member of the Supreme War Council of France. At this point he was retired because of his age.
 Great Day Comes
 Then came the great day for which he had waited so long. AS all Europe became vast mobiliza- tion camp, the old fire famed out again in General Pau, and by popular demand he reente-ed the

TARIFF BILL WILL
 COME FIRST ON HOUSE PROGRAM
Democrats Will Su b m i t Tariff Measure Provid- ing for Reciprocity

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2. = The Democratic tariff measure will be given the legislative right of way in the House of Representatives next week with tax increase bill to come as soon afterwards as pos sible.
 Determined to expedite House action on these measures, Demo- cratic leaders plan to submit the tariff proposals to the joint Senate and House committee Monday.
 The Democratic tariff measure is designed to provide reciprocal tariff arrangements with foreign nations. It would direct the tariff commission to recommend changes in rates to Congress instead of the President as provided under the existing law This would carry out plan for which Speaker John N. Garner, then Democratic floor lead CT, contended when the present law was bill before Congress.
 It is understood that the Demo- cratic measure will propose an in- ternational conference on tariffs with the purpose in view of se- curing general tariff reductions.
 The Democratic measure will not propose general revision of tariff schedules and such is not contem plated at this time. This fea- ture, the leaders believe, will cut down the time necessary to con- sider the measure by eliminating time that would usually be con- stunned in hearings.

J. s. PLAN FOR
 DISARMAMENT
 NEARLY READY
American Delegates Will Ask for Direct and
 Budgetary Restriction

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2.-The United States will make no open ing overtures to the nations at next months general disarmament conference that will occur at Gene va, but a detailed policy has been laid out for the guidance of the American delegation.
 The draft of the plan of the American attitude of the Ameri- cans will undergo final polishing at conferences between Secretary of State Henry L. Stimson and Ambassador Charles G. Dawes.
 One point in the American plan will provide for assent to com- bination of direct and budgetary limitation of land forces.
 The direct limitation gives each nation so many guns, so many sol diers, so much ammunition. The budgetary limitation allows each na- tion to spend definite amounts of money on arms and troops.
 Another policy item is opposition to- suggestions that the size of battleship be reduced from the Washington Treaty limit of 35,00O tons. This question is to come up again in 1885 under the terms of the Naval Treaty. The United States feels that no country is ready to build these expensive ships now.

-- Wickersham Advises Cues ton of Appointments
 to Be Discussed

{ WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 24.- Especial Correspondence) = There are four appointments due to be made by the President for Alaska all under the Department of Jus tice. The term of Judge G. J Lomen at Nome expired in the spring of 193O and his reappoint- ment was sent to the Senate about a year ago.
 The Judiciary Committee, how ever, decided not to recommend his confirmation, but his successor has not yet been named. In the case of Marshal Chas. D. Jones, who was reappointed year ago, ob- jection was made to his confirma- tion but no action was taken by the Judiciary Committee, and he continues to serve.
 Tn the Third Division Marshal Harvey P. Sullivan's term expired last year but his successor has not been named.
 A similar situation exists in the Fourth Division, where Judge Cecil H. Clegg has just completed his tenth year, but he has not re- ceived an appointment to the third term.
 Assistant Attorney General Sis son, in charge of the Administra- tive department, has indicated that he will take up these appointments with Delegate Wickersham after the holiday recess. There are various applicants for the several appointments. The fact that the Department has had bill intro duced in Congress to combine the Second or Nome Division with the Fourth or Fairbanks Division, ef- fective July 1st next, will not ne- cessarily interfere with appoint ments, as the bill may not pass.
 Among the recess appointments sent to the Senate was that of Leroy M. Sullivan. District Attor- ney at Nome. The Judiciary Con- mittee inquired of the Delegate his pleasure in the matter, which brought forward a prompt and cordial endorsement of MT. Sulli- van.

HAUSNER'S PLANE
STILL UNREPORTED
Friends UnWorried SO Far,
However, as His Ship
Carried No Radio.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Stanislaus Hausner sailed today the
route Of high adventure-the airway
over the Atlantic from New York to
Europe.
Since S o'clock yesterday. Eastern
standard time, there has been no word
Of his progress. He had no wireless,
and the only possibility of news of him
rested in the few ships ploughing the
waters over which his huge Bellanca
monoplane charted its course.
But there was no worry. This after
noon, perhaps, If he is unsighted or IN
reported, there may be occasion for con-
Germ. The early part of today. how
ever, presumably finds the Poland born
American droning along, at 100 miles
an hour, over lonesome seas.
At three pm. yesterday his mono
plane was reported seen over Halifax
and two hours later over Sydney, Nova
Scotia. This indicated he followed the
coast line until he reached the tip of
Cape Breton.
In the event SIS gallons of gasoline
proved insufficient for the 4,375-mile
hop. Hausner planned to descend either
at London or Paris.
Weather conditions across the At
lantic were favorable when he took off
at 1855 am, eastern standard time,

posaIs Loom.
BLAINE DELAYS ACTION
IN VIGOROUS ATTACK
Raps Subsidies" and Waste of
U. S.-sliding Scale and Hoover's
Programs Weighed.

BY a vote Of 81 to IS the Senate
today defeated the amendment of Sen
ator johnson, Republican. Of California,
which would have established an ex-
emption Of $4,000 in connection with
the 10 per cent pay cut for Federal and
District employees in the economy bill.
The johnson amendment also con-
tanned a clause providing that a reduc-
ton on compensation above $4,000
would not operate to reduce a salary
below the $4,000 exemption mark. This
would have protected salaries just above
$4,000 from 10 per cent cut.
The rejection of this amendment. the
first to be voted on, does not neces-
sarily mean no change will be made in
the fiat 10 per cent cut ell along the
line recommended by the Appropria-
lions Committee in reporting the bill
There are a number OF other amend
ments pending providing for various
sliding scales that would exempt the
lowest salary groups and apply a pro-
portionate percentage OF cut as the
salaries increase.
Other Amendments Up.
Several Of these remaining amend
ments probably will be voted on.

ocrats joined in voting against the

posal than some Of the other pending

ment was ordered printed and to lie on

Senator Norris of Nebraska then in
