, her own back to Japan-which point Russia is likely to keep in mind"
 "Germany would seek determin : edly her own allies for a counter entente," said the Daily Herald, | organ of the labor party. What then would stand between the | world and a holocaust? ?" Alliance Reputed Paris, Nov. 24-UP)-The for eign office officially denied exist ence of a French-R Russian military alliance today.
 The statements was the result of the great excitement caused when Leon Archimbault, chamber of deputies budget reporter, said in a speech yesterday:
 Russia has solid, well equipped army which she offers us in case of conflict between Ger many and us."
 Today's statement from the for eign office said:
 'The ministry of foreign affairs declares that all reports concern ing a French-Russfan military al- liance are groundless.
 Italy Defends Hungary
 Rome, Nov. 24-(UP) = Italy came to Hungary's defense today and backed demand for imme- diate discussion of Jugoslavia charges that Hungary sheltered terrorists of the gang which killed King Alexander.
 Jugoslavia complained to the League of Nations. Hungary asked that the league council consider the charges at once.
 An official communique today said that responsible Italian quar- ters acknowledged Hungary's right to an immediate discussion and adedd:
 Irresponsible quarters consider the situation delicate but do not believe it is such as to lead to inn mediate, more serious complica- tions.''
 Newspapers have hinted that when the question reaches the league council Italy may ask if Jugoslavia is against the shelter ing of terrorists, why she counten- ances monuments to the men who precipitated the World war by as- dinand at Serajevo.
 RumOrs Denied
 Belgrade, Nov. 2A-UP) - A government spokesman today de- nied reports that Jugoslavia was concentrating troops on the Hun garian frontier. He said Jugoslavia hoped to obtain justice from the league in it's complaint that Hun gary harbored terrorists.
 Budapest, Nov. 24-(UP)-Long current rumors or troop concen- trations on both sides of the Hun garian Jugoslavian frontier were denied again today. There was no nervousness here regarding the possibility of war, because it was not believed Jugoslavia would risk precipitating another world con- f1ict

which would include Poland - Frances ally and a buffer between Russia and Germany - are stil proceeding. Conversations have been proceed. ing between France and Russia regarding the situation created by Germany's rearmament, and it is we'll within the bounds of possi- bility that there eventually will be an entente.
 If and when it occurs it will be among the most important diplo- matic developments since the World War because it will consti- ute a. reversion to the pre-waf balance of power system with Flu rope grouped into hostile armed camps. 1t will also mean the vlrt- ual end of the phase of attempts by collective security treaties to prevent war. It will be also a shattering blow at the League of Nations method.
 Favorable to Entente
 The extent of fears of Germany's increasing warlike strength is shown by the fact that opinion in France seems favorable to an en- tente with Russia.
 For years after the Bolshevik revolution France sswas among Russia's bitterest enemies because of her defection from the war and default of billions of francs worth of Russian bonds held by French peasants.
 In recent years opinion rapidly altered until France became the principal supporter of Russia's en- try into the league.
 With Germans rearmament even stranger bedfellows are likely. For instance there are growing -indica- tions that Germany might be im- pelled to seek an understanding with Japan as an offset to a French h-Russian alliance. ,&

 To End the Treaty
 Tokyo, Nov 24-(UP)-Japan will give formal notice Of termlna, ton of the Washington naval treaty before Dec S1. Ei1i Amau, foreign office spokesman said today in discussing naval af- fairs in Tokyo and London.
 The exact date, however, has nos yet been determined, the spokes- man said, but the notice certain ly'' will be filed before the agree ment automatically renews itself the last day of December.
 Amau said Foreign Minister Koki Hirota, his superior, probably will avoid stating Japan's reasons for the treaty termination in au- dressing the imperial diet in .ts srecial session which begins neXl week.
 In fact Hirota's remarks on naval matters will be brief and limited to matters already made public, Amau indicated. Observ- CTS had predicted that the foreign minister would reveal Japan's at titure on various proposals submit ted at the London conversations.
 Amau confirmed London cables that Japanese delegates merely ad- mitted Britain special vulnerability and had not conceded their right to larger navy.
 In his disclosure on interna- tional developments the official spokesman touched briefly on re- ports that political matters had en- tered the London parleys, including reported talk of Pacific non-ag- gression agreement.

 the eye injury. The total sum to be paid will be 8 sizable amount.
 The Phoenix Indemnity Go was the insurer for the Bridgeport Con- struction Go and the Hartford Ac- cident Indemnity was the insurer for the State Highway department.
 Commissioner Lynch held that the award should run against all respondents and insurers. He stated, Tt is not the purpose of the commissioner to determine be- tween the State of Connecticut and it's insurer and the Bridgeport Con- struction Co and it's insurer as to how the pensation shall be paid. The award must stand against all, and they in turn can adjust their right among them- selves, because they all are respon- sible.'
 The two insurance companies have taken the case to the superior court to decide whether the Phoe- nix Insurance company bears the payments; whether the Hartford company bears the payments or whether both shall bear the pay ments. They ask the court to make a declaratory judgment in view of the finding of the commissioner.

 merger were not announced. Both Lindquist and Sanders were removed from office. R. w. Trun- bull of Springfield was appointed
 to succeed Lindquist as president and w. A. Fairley was named treasurer.

 tool of a gang that hoped to make away with virtually all of the company's assets.
 Baiata, Barry and Karatz all ready were charged with theft of $54,O00 from the Amalgamated Trust and Savings bank of Chi
 cago.
 Sanders and Van Derck had
 not been formally accused of% a crime.
 Conspiracy Made Easy
 The conspisacy was made pos sible by the fact that the Abraham Lincoln company recently was reorganized under new manage ment. Sanders and Lindquist were appointed at that time. Sanders confessed according to Thompson and Healy, that he plot ted with KaratZ and others to buy a controlling interest in the insurance company and in the In- dianapolis banks with money ob- tained by cashing spurious checks on the insurance company. They induced Van Derck, clerk in the IAmalgamated bank, to help them.
 They had agreed to pay $400,0OO for the company, and made a $25,-
 900 first payment.
 After gaining control of the com pany, according to Thompson and Healy, Sanders and his associates planned to flood the portfolios of the concern with stolen bonds which they hoped to buy from
 criminals at 10 and IS cents on the dollar, selling them to the company at face value.
 The Indianapolis banks were to be used to further the stolen bond scheme.
 Plot Was Recealed The alleged plot was revealed
 when Van Derck, urged by his ,fi- ancee, walked into police head quarters and told as much as he knew. Three fraudulent cheeks already had been cashed at the bank without detection even though
 a state bank examiner checked Its records after the first theft. Baiata was convicted in 1924 oi footing the First National Bank o1 Warren, Mass, of $203.000. He
