DISARMAMENT IS
 DRIFTING NEARER DISASTROUS END
France to Send Great Bri= tain a Note That It
 Has Failed
BY RICHARD D. MCMILLAN Copyright 1884, By United Press)

BY RICHARD ID. MCMILLAN Copyright 1884, By United Press)
 Paris, March -UP)-France is expected to send Great Britain Thursday note which seems cer- tain to end the present disarma- ment negotiations in confessed failure and prepare the way for new and more practical discus sions.
 A recent British disarmament memorandum, sent to continental powers and the United States and Japan, was a last despairing effort to end a deadlock that has persist ed for months.
 Frances reply, now being pre-. pared after study by the national defense council, has been revealed as a frank rejection of the British plan.
 Germany wants to rearm and France feels she .an not disarm in such situation. She wants quar- antees of her safety so binding on Great Britain and other nations that other nations will not give them.
 Reliable information to the United Press was that Britain, anticipating the French rejection, planned to start new deal in disarmament by inviting continen- tai powers soon to a special air power conference.
 Nations generally, the United States, Japan, Great Britain, and to a lesser extent France, are get ting a running start for a naval race which they fear will start formally next year when the power ies.
 Britain has announced that she will not be left behind. She has recognized the danger of her air power situation and has announced that she must have an air force equal to that of any nation within attacking distance.
 Naval disarmament is question apart from that of land disarma- ment. Air disarmament is link ed with land disarmament. Seeing the failure of general disarmament ne- sotiations, Britain, it is learned, is willing to let France and Germany worry about land disarmament and depend on her naval and aerial arms to insure her against attack
 Diplomatists feel there would be much more chance of an aeria agreement than of a land agree ment, and many greeted with joy the intimation that Britain would take the initiative in getting dis armament talk down to a basis or which some progress might be made.

Many consulates had refused to visa the Greek government travel pa pers given Insull so he could leave the country before Thursday, when he must go or be deported on the first ship sailing to New York.
 The consulate consulted the lega- tion when a suggestion for the papers came from the Greek for eign office. It was announced the legation would consult the state department. At noon today Consul General Leland B.. Morris handed the foreign office, a travelling cer- tificate. It contained his photo graph, the date, his identity and the fact that he was a naturaliZed American-he was born in London, It is valid for three months. 1nsull was isolated in his rooms, refusing to see anyone. and pleading that he was unable to travel.

necessary steps in the securing of an injunction against the state druggists.
 Waterbury was not represented at the meeting, it being the opin- ion among some local dealers that enough representatives from oth- CT towns and cities would be on hand. Other owners found it i'm possible to attend because of other business engagements.
 Representatives of the state as- sociation however, are making the rounds of all committees in the state to sign up those who were not present last Sunday. All of Waterbury dealers so far as known, are unanimously in favor of the organization.
