PARIS, September Premier Her
xiot. back in Paris for a cabinet meeting
which will consider Germany's formal
demand for equality in armament, con-
ferred this morning with the British
charge d'affaires before summoning his
ministers.
The government was uncommunica-
tive regarding details of the demand
presented by the German Ambassador,
but it was understood its principal
points are these:
IL Requests Believed Made.
' First. Modification of the Versailles
treaty, with a provision for l2year
service basis in the German Army.
Second. Amalgamation of compulsory
military service and the period served
by the militia.
Third. Sanction for a German Army
of 100000 men.
Fourth. Permission for Germany to
maintain heavy. light and coastal ar
tillery.
Fifth. Permission for maintenance
of tanks by the German Army.
Sixth. Establishment of complete
German military aviation corps.
Seventh. Establishment of school
for military pilots.
Eighth. Extension of the German
Navy by the addition Of airplane car
riers, cruisers and submarines.
Ninth. Sanction for the construction
of forts along the German frontiers.
Tenth. Creation of IS war material
factories in GERMANY
Other Nations to Be Consulted.
In official circles the French gov
eminent was expected to communicate
without delay with interested powers"
relative to the German memorandum.
Informed quarters asserted that the
question of German equality In arma-
ments was discussed by Premier Her
riot and Herbert Samuel, the British
home secretary, when the two met on
the Isle of Jersey, from which the
Premier has Just returned, and that a
groundwork for line Of action was
laid
1t was prohlernaticai whether Premier
Herriot would reply TO Berlin directly
O. by speech, since the memorandum
was not considered diplomatic docu-
ment
Little Difference Seen
The superior French War Council
claims there is little difference between
the French and German armies when
quality of training is considered. and
has put a mass of information on al
legged German secret ornaments at the
disposal of the government.
The War Council maintains the Ger
man army numbers 100000. and is
trained to fight rather than act as
police force. as the Versailles Treaty
intended.
Meanwhile 1t was understood that
Washington has postponed its pro-
.jected land disarmament discussions
with France until after the France
German equality controversy has been
settled. Ambassador Gibson is re-
ported planning a tour Of European
capitals preparatory TO selecting date
for the reopening Of the Disarmament
Conference, which is uncertain as yet.

FRENCH GIVE CONCESSION
ON IMPORT QUOTA RULE

By the Associated Press.
PARIS, September 1.-American ne
gotiators obtained what they regarded
as a small victory yesterday when the
French agreed to consider their proposal
for liberal Interpretation of French i'm
port quotas on American fruits pending
conclusion of a trade treaty.
II Is the American contention that
the present quotas, affecting principally
apples and pears and representing a
reduction of approximately 80 per cent
in imports of American fruits, adversely
affect United States trade.
The Washington representatives are
seeking the adoption of the American
figures on the volume of imports from

In this campaign pays dividends in

cited the excellent prevention pro-

Phil Knights, city engineer, and
Robert McKibben, plant superin-

storm when the power plant failed
and the electric motors could not

ocratic congress, it is charged by
John Nance Garner, a Texan the
Republicans said had been ''muz-
zled" by Democratic leaders.
Garner made his charges last
night in his first eastern campaign
address. The address obviously
was intended to answer President
Hoover's Des Moines speech at the
same time launch a counter at
tack on charges that the Demo-
cratic party lacks leadership in
congress where Garner is speaker
of the house.
He quoted the President at Des
Moines:
The secretary of the treasury
informed me that unless we could
put into effect remedy, we could
hold the gold standard but two
weeks longer because of inability
to meet the demands of foreigners
and our own citizens for gold
Then he continued:
1.-THE President gravely told you
that we were within two weeks of
world collapse, 10 years of misery,
and revolution, and were only
saved by the adroitness, promptness
and wisdom of the administration
Il can tell you without fear of
contradiction that to say we were
within two weeks of the edge of
the gold standard because of any
lack of gold is libel on the credit
of the United States"
