activities were featured by an attack
on the Won Papen regime by ex-
Chancellor Heinrich Bruening, and
an address broadcast to the United
States by the chancellor.
Groups of Adolph Hitler'S brown
shirts were r0bilized in various

WAYS Of the world moved
' ' slowly today for a 6-year-
old girl who chung to her mother
while she awaits a court ruling
and medical science to determine
her future.
For Barbara Griffin is the CEN
ter of a court battle to prove that
Howard Griffin, S19 Cleveland
street, divorced husband Of the
child's mother, is Barbara's father,
Griffin has denied parentage.
He alleges that since he is not
the father, no law of the state
of Indiana can force him to. pay
for her support.
But it is that support, sought
by Mrs. Margaret Griffin Horn,
1925 Roosevelt avenue, which will
mean much to the girl 1t may
mean that she will be able to
finish a high school course, dress
in keeping with her friends and,
to some extent, be safeguarded
against the world as she is reach
ing maturity.
L. Russell Newgent, juvenile
court referee. is contemplating sub
jecting Griffin to a blood test to
determine parentage, Griffin, in
his denial of parentage, asserted
he would "be glad to sumbit to a
blood test"
Newgent said he will decide on
the blood test proposal next week.

ment is provisional within the
framework of a world settlement of
the question of international debts.
3. So far as Herriot is concerned,
no further move will be made re-
garding the debt situation until
after the presidential election in
the United States.
In his office at the Quai
D'Orsay, where the walls are hung
with costly tapestries, Herriot him
self offered contrast with the gold
and crystal atmosphere.
America Need Not Fear
He is sturdy and vigorous, a
plain French citizen, who pulled
hard on his pipe as he spoke with
Gallo earnestness to the writer and
manager of the United Press
bureau in Paris.
Harriot was informed that many
conflicting reports regarding the
Lausanne agreement had been cir
culated abroad, and that the i'm
preston prevailed in some quarters
that France had an agreement with
Britain to act jointly in dealing
with the United States on war
debts.
America has no need to fear
European bloc to drive such a bar
gain, the premier replied with
great emphasis, deploring the false
statements attributed to him. He
emphasized that there is no such
agreement between Britain and
France.
The So-called "gentlemans agree
ment' at Lausanne, he explained,
was nothing more than an under
standing that the PREPARATIONS settle
ment would not be effective, that
sacrifices to which France agreed
will not be made, unless there also
is an agreement among France,
Britain and the United States re-
garding the debt payments to
America.
Long Hard Road Back
There is no agreement or under
standing, he emphasized, that
France and Britain shall present a
united front to the United States or
that a debt agreement may not be
made between Britain and the
United States entirely independent
Of France.
Herriot said that, so far as he is
concerned, no further move will be
made regarding the debt situation
until after the United States preSi-
Dental election.
He explained in vigorous language
that the feeling that European ma
tons are presenting the United
States with an accomplished fact"
on the debts, is based on miscon-
ception.
The Lausanne proceedings, he
said, were in line with what was I'M
derstood to be the desire of the
United States that Europe put its
house in order before any change
could be made in the debt settle
ment terms.
Europe's way back to normalcy is
a long road and for the journey,
much hard labor is required, the
premier said in letting it be known
he would remain at his desk all
summer, without a vacation.

"Of course, there are few who
