SECRET PACT
PLAN DENIED
BY PREMIER

LONDON, Nov. II. fU.Pd Japan
and Great Britain are not arrang-
ing secret political-economic agree
ment behind the backs" of the
American delegates to the three
power naval conversations, Prime
Minister j. Ramsay Macdonald de-
clared today.
Il would like to have it thorough
ly understood" he said that the
American representatives have been
kept informed of what has passed
between the Japanese representa-
tives and ourselves during these
conversations, just as the japanese
have been similarly informed CT
what has passed between the Amer
leans and ourselves"
LONDON, Nov. H. {U.Pl = The
United States moved today to
sound out Japan's opinion of the
advisability of treaty to estab-
lish international control of the
arms traffic.
Hugh Wilson, representing the
United States, called on AmbaSsa-
dor Matsudaira at the Japanese
embassy. They were understood
to have discussed whether it would
be advisable to embody such a
treaty in a general arms conven-
ton or draft a separate agree
ment.
Because of difficulties entailed
in reaching a comprehensive agree
ment among the powers, it was be-
lieved the latter course was IA
vored.
At the meeting of the steering
committee Of the arms conference
at Geneva on November 20, it was
expected the United States and
Great Britain would propose rigid
regulation of the arms traffic un-
der supervision of an international
committee. Wilson recently sound
ed ont the French and italian at
titude on the proposal.

SANTA MONICA, NOV. IL.
(SpeciaD-We got our navy back
this week. It's been off on some
kind of a world tour, making
kind of a good will tour of var
ious places. I think they got as
far away from home as New York
and Philadelphia. They were
mighty glad to get back, 1 tell
you. You can travel all you want
to in all the curious old places,
but there is nothing like steam
ing into the old home port.
We are mighty proud of our
navy. Some near sighted folks
kick on the cost but, by golly, it's
worth the price to see 10000 men
spotlessly clean and a cocky walk
that you don't find on any other
animal but peacock. There is
only one whisker, and that on
popular Admiral Reeves. He looks
more like Robert E. Lee every day,

his confidence. He won 26
games, more than any other pitcher in
the league, and lost 10.
In the meantime Paul was IN
Springfield. Mo, pitching the team to
the championship of the Western As
sociation. After winning his first
seven games, Paul began to give up
the idea of being a shortstop. But he
refused to listen to Eddie Dyer.
Dyer ordered him to report to the
ball park every morning he was not
scheduled to pitch. Most of the time
Dyer sat in the empty club house alone,
considering suitable names for rookie
pitchers who don't obey orders. When
Paul did show up, he didn't pitch, but
lined up for batting practice.
Devotion to his brother has marked
Pauls attitude ever since he entered
organized ball. Asked why he made
no effort to learn to throw a curve

to throw it just exactly like Jay does.

only 7, and though he batted .3l6, the

Lacking control, he "beaned' more
