 London, April 27-(UP)-High British financial circles believed to-day that the proposed Anglo French monetary alliance would save" the franc, keep France on the gold standard, and insure the maintenance of the British pound at a level of comfortable deprecia- ton compared to the American dollar
 The agreement, believed to be almost completed after three days garded as the most effective possi- ble counterstroke against Amer ica's abandonment of the gold standard. If 1t succeeds in re- establishing the dollar at the level 1t occupied before the gold stand ard was abandoned, observers pointed out, all the advantages both in foreign trade and in bar gaining position at the world eco homie conference which dollar de- preciation might have given the Americans would be lost.
 The plan amounts to an agree ment for the Bank of England to lend the French government francs purchased with it's equaliza- ton fund as a measure of ex- change stabilization.
 This would prevent a flight of gold from the French treasury, as heretofore the Bank of England has converted it's francs into gold and thus would help France stay on the gold standard. It would al- low a concentration of the British equalization fund, which Chancel- Tor of the Exchequer Neville Chamberlain announced would be enlarged, to the business of main taining the value of Che dollar and thus keeping the pound depre- ciated.
 Despite the opinions of high au- thorities that Britain would not stabilize the pound immediately, reports persisted that a return to the gold standard was imminent. The financial expert of the Daily Herald interpreted the Bank of England's withdrawal of ear- marked gold from America as a step toward resumption of the gold standard.

 Geneva, pril 27.-UP)-The steering committee of the disarm- ament conference agreed to-day to the proposal submitted by Norman Davis. American "ambassador at large" and directed that th@ con ference proceed at once to a discus- sion of disarmament instead of se- curity. \
 Davis told the conference yester- day to decide the extent that Eu- rope would disarm, and said Amer ica then would define how far she would go in a "consultative" pact to prevent European wars.
 Some fear had arisen that his blunt speech would bring about deadlock because most delegations hand insisted that security be de- fined before the extent of 'disarm- ament could be decided.
 Davis appeared briefly before the steering committee to reiterate his speech. The committee then de- cided the general commission would meet Friday to take up dis- cussion of the disarmament fea- lures in the plan submitted by Prime Minister Ramsay MacDon- aid of Great Britain.
 To "expedite the work" the com mittee decided to meet twive daily. It also ressurected the 1an9uishing security committee to study the basis for regional agreements.
 Before the United States defin- itely accepts consultative pact 1t must first see if Europe really means to disarm, Davis told the committee. Upon his promise ot q defiinte announcement from Washington, the effectives commit tic decided to meet this afternoon to discuss the military value of the German police.
 Davis pointed out to the steer ing committee that his speech the general commission yesterday was designed to encourage and expedite it's work, since it revealed for the tn first time Washingtons approval of the idea of a consultative treaty under the Kellogg pact.

terrain Church in this city will be

time for the st. Johns Presby-

The reverend conducted series
of meetings in the city hall in this

of the church's activities.
However, it is stated, that stat

JUDGE ATTACKED
BY 100 FARMERS
NOW RECOVERING
ABDUCTED AND GENERALLY
MIsTREATED FoR FAILURE
TO MEET DEMANDS ABOUT
FORECLOSURE DEGREES

LEMARS, Iowa. April 2S.--
Dragged from his bench. abduet-
ed and mistreated by more than
100 belligerent farmers warning
against farm foreclosures, 60
year-old Judge Charles Bradley
was recovering from the effects
Of his experience today while hints
came from state officials that al.
legged laxity in law enforcement
will be investigated.
The judge was seized by farm
ers after they failed in an effort
to force him 10 take an oath that
he would not sign any more fore
closure DEGREES.
He was slapped. smeared with
grease aud dirt, choked into semi
consciousness with q rope and his
trousers removed.
Governor Herring indicated he
was considering an inquiry Of the
case.

If they are not in the military
forces, they can fulfill their obi
cation in the labor army. Buck
privates in the labor force are
called "trudovaks."
The period of service is eight
months, and in that time the labor
army man may be sent to any part
of Bulgaria where roads need to
be built, swamps drained, railways
tended or telephone lines strung,
After he has finished his service
and joined the reserves he still
may be called on for a brief period
of service each year, but only in
his home community.
The object of the labor army is
training for young men; inculca-
ton of a feeling of responsibility
toward the state, healthy physical
exercise and accumulation of a
capacity for honest work.
The Key West citizen. [volume] (Key West, Fla.) 1879-current, 1933-04-28

81 Yet this training is not a finan-
cial burden on the state. It was at
the beginning, in 1920, but after
four years of organization the
service began to show a profit. 1t
now nets 100000 year from its
10000 men.
To keep the trudovaks out of
competition with regular work
men, the government uses them on
projects which would remain un-
realized if money had to be rails
ed in the usual way. Reclamation
Of waste lands is a typical trudo-
yak job.
The trudavak gets no pay. Food,
shelter and uniform are provided
him, but he is supposed to be pay
ing his debt to the state in work.
II he prefers to pay it in money
and escape the work he has the
legal right to buy exemption.
