BY LOWELL l.. LEAKE

New York, September 30 -
 (UP) - A reversed court decis- ion has cleared the way for the personable James J. Walker to appeal in 0 dramatic appearance before 32,000 democratic commit teemen for renomination as Mayor of New York.
 The committeeman, most of
 them at least, are old admirers of the dapper New Yorker who re- signed before decision on removal charges against him. They migh:
 be swayed easily by the wise cracking, nimble-witted former
 mayor, who has been. at his best in a rough and tumble convention debate or crowd. ,d The decision which has muddled the mayoralty situation in Ameri- ca's largest city, was handed down by the appellate division courts
 which heard an appeal from lower court which held that Mayor | Joseph V. Mckee was entitled to
 his job until January l.. 1894. The appellate court decided. 4 to l, against that ruling, interpret | ing the law in effect to have in- tended that in case of vacancy
 in the office, the, electorate should be- entitled to name successor
 at the. earliest possible moment. The dissenting opinion held that the dominant thought" of the framers of the constitution was
 that city mayoralty election
 should not conflict with state and national elections.
 The ruling will be appealed to the state court of appeals, which
 is- to New York what the state su- preme court is to / many other states. A decision is probable be- ] fore October II. Sthe date any in- depednent candidate. must file
 but not probable before the county convention, October 6. RepubH- cans plan their convention October 6 or7. Y
 Former Mayor Walker, aboard ] the new liner Rex, iss anxious tc
 be back by October because My political future is at stake" then: A few days ago he didn't care" when he got back to New York. But on the eve of the appellate court decision, he received Q mys- terious, lengthy cable from New York. /
 At about the same time, Tam
 many Hall and it's allies announced the county convention would be called. Spokesman. denied then that they had any inkling of what
 the appellate court decision was to be.
 Meanwhile, Edward J. Flynn, political>leader of the Bronx, spon- sor of Mayor Mckee, and ardent Roosevelt supporter, flew back 'by airplane from the Roosevelt tour to look after the McKee-Roosevelt interests. The Bronx county chair man did not join in the call for the country convention. ~1
 Tammany Hall claims about 25,OOO of the 32,000 county com mitteemen who make up the New York democEatic organization. The Bronx has about 1000. A majority of the quorum only is necessary to elect.
 So the district men whose po- litical meal tickets depend upon their allegiance to Tammany Hall and it's allies may be given the chance to renominate Walker few nouns after gala home-com- ing planned for him by his ad- mirers.
 There was another indication late yesterday that. regardless Of

MEYER IAUDS WORK OF G. 0. P. YOUTH
DIVIDE ARMIES INTO POLICE CORPS
 | ASKS PRESIDENT
Proposal to Disarm, in This Way Presented to
 World Conference at
 Geneva By American Delegate

Geneva, Sept 3o-(UP)-Divi- sion of armies into police forces necessary to maintain internal or- der and defense forces large enough to. protect against external aggression was proposed to the world disarmament conference to- day by the American delegate, Hugh Wilson.
 Wilson asked the subcommittee on effectives of the general steer ing committee to "examine as ex- peditiously as possible the proposal of President Hoover with the view of bringing about strict limitations and real reduction of electives"
 The American move was consid- cred unusually important because the subcommittee is composed of political members and not experts, and also because if the powers de- eide to disarm they must agree to methods of slashing land forces and navy personnel.
 The outstanding proposal of the Hoover plan was 8 straight one- third armament cut. The memo- randum submitted to-day estab- lished the guiding principles for calculating reductions. of armies, but admitted that determination of the actual number of effectives for each nation would be left for set- clement when a comparable basis for calculation is obtained.
 War Minister Joseph Paul. Boncour of France said all effec- lives first must be defined, in or der that all forms of militarily trained bodies could be included in the calculations.
