ment and is depending upon heav-
lily armed nations to reduce their
forces, Norman H. Davis, Ameri-
can representative, informed For
eign Minister Joseph Paul-Bon-
cour today.
Davis, returning to Washington
to confer with President RooSe-
welt, made no effort to urge arms
cuts upon France especially, but
said Europe as a whole is faced
with a decision of prime impor-
tance with regard to disarmament.
Paul Boncour asked Davis
whether he planned to return to
Geneva for the resumption of ne
gotiations December 4.
Davis evaded a direct answer
by reiterating President Roose-
velt's stand that the United States
is finished with missionary" work
in the cause of disarmament and
that the onus now rests upon Eu-
rope.
Davis, however, was understood
to have given his personal adhe-
sion to the proposed disarmament
covenant which would outlaw any
nation breaking it.

home Saturday aboard the liner

INJURIES z

NEW WARK, N. j., Oct. II
GN.S0.-Twelve persons, includ-

were recovering from injuries and
seven others faced a court hear
ing in the wake Of a severe clash
between supporters and oppo-
nents Of the Hitler regime in
Germany which brought police
reserves from all stations before
the disorder was quelled.
The clash, assuming riot pro-
portions for a time, grew out Of
a masS-meeting under the
auspices of the Friends of New
Germany" an organization favor
able to the Nazi government of
Germany.
Hans Spanknoebel, leader of
the organization, was addressing
the meeting when several rocks
crashed through the windows
and crowd of about 500 massed
outside set up clamor Of jeer-
ing and hooting. Several stencil
bombs followed the rocks and the
audience broke for the doors.
AS Spanknoebel emerged from
the hall, man Iunged' at him
but was knocked down by one
of Spanknoebels bodyguards. In
a second the street outside the
building was filled with fighting,
yelling men and youths. Half a
dozen detectives who had been
assigned to duty at the meeting
turned in a riot call and about
100 reserve policemen, armed
with tear gas grenades, hurried
to the scene.

the wool and are incorrigible; so
this one is willing to settle the
nations problems by the simple
lexpedient of exempting all inn
provements for taxation, taking
all the burden from the shoulders
of industry and taxing but one
thing. For the needs of society
we would take the wealth that
society has created; the value of
land. We would lay no con-
fiscatory hand upon the wealth
that any man has created; but the
wealth that is due to the presence
of the population, and to that
alone, would be used for the needs
of the population. Presently, the
conservatives win get the idea.
Then they will say that they al
ways did think it was the thing
needed but that they had to wait
until the crazy men who affronted
sensible people had died off before
they could afford to be identified
with the Great Movement.
New Zealand has had a lot of
fun with the tax dodgers. They
allowed them to place their own
valuation on their property. ONLY,
the joker was that their valuation,
plus ten per cent. became the
amount that they would have to
take, If the state wanted their
property. That is another story. a
long one and a good one. It was a
tough spot for tax dodgers.

PIRATES DEFEAT

By OSCAR PITA)

The Coast Guard nine met an
other defeat at the hands of the
Pirates. 16 to 3, in a wild game
of baseball played in the Navy
Field yesterday afternoon.
The Guardsmen started off
pretty well but went to pieces in
the last three innings Of the game
when the Pirates took advantage
of many infield as well outfield
errors combined with safe hits to
score fourteen Of their sixteen
runs in those rounds.
Every Pirate batter was record
ed with one or more hits with the
exception of Armando Perez who
was unable to hit safely.
Catcher Burnett of the. Guards
got two of the seven hits for the
Sailor boys. Casa struck out 10
service men.
Suydam, who played third base
In place OF Slapnlck for the serv-
ice team, probably made a record
of errors in Key West when he
missed five of the six chances COM
ing his way. So far there is no
record of any. third baseman max
ing that many errors in one game.
Wenzei pitched q good game for
four rounds but probably got dis
gusted after so many miscues on
the part of the infield that he was
just tossing 'em in any old way.
Failing to turn in line up in
the second game between the
Young Sluggers and the Coast
Guard makes It impossible to have
a box score for this contest. The
service team turned in its line up
but the sluggers' management
failed to do 50.
