would agree to reduce at least the size
of the battleships has been destroyed.
The French government has just
put on the slips the first Of the two
35,000-ton battleShips. When COM
pleted this unit will be the most pow
erful In the world. 1t will have eight
16-inch guns in double turrets and
will be capable Of a speed of 80 knots.
But its chief feature ,piH be the
protection against air attacks. The
protection OF this new battleship
will be the hedviest OF its kind yet
known. The deck tDill be protected
by an S-inch steel armor against
aerial torpedoes.
The Germans. while devoting much
attention to their aerial and land
forces, are not neglecting their sea
power, either. The last of the pocket"
battleShips is now under construction
and will be completed next year. The
navy yards are working in the mean
time on some new types of submarines
which are prohibited under the la
mented Versailles treaty.
While no positive information Is
available yet, reliable reports indi-
cate that a flotilla OF Is submarines
has been completed and that more
are being built.
In the same way it is reported that
the Soviet government, lacking ade-
quate yards and specialists for a
prompt reorganization Of their navy to
cope eventually with the German
maritime power, has placed important
orders in France and Great Britain.
The payment will be on the cuff, as
far as the French are concerned, and
in kind for the British. The reports
fail to indicate what type of vessels
the Soviet government has ordered.
but it Is believed that they are mostly
large submarines of the super -Surcouff
model.
Ludendorff Hero.
Hitler, following the advice Of his
chief counsellor, Gen. Won Blomberg,
has restored Gen. Ludendorf as Ger
many's popular war hero.
There has been good deal of spec

measure. The most natural assumption
is that, in case Of war, Hitler would
entrust the command of the German
forces to Ludendorff, who was the
author of the plan which brought
about the disaster of the Russian
armies in East Prussia in 1914.
Military observers doubt this,
ho,CeUer. They say that Ludendorf,
U1lo has been out of touch NTH the
revolutionary changes in the STRAIT
egy and the tactics of a netD 1uar,
cannot be anything but a fgure-
head if he Uere called to dctiue
duty again. And Ludendorf is not
the type uho Uould accept an
honorary job. Consequently Hitler's
gesture toDard the maritime hero
tcas merely plGtonic and necessi-
tdted By the fact that certain por-
tions of the ReichsDehr iDere dis

Should the German army 60 to war

the ablest commander in the Reich.

GARNER TO REVISE
cONFEREES POLICY
Skaters Custom With
Statement He Will Name
Friends of Bills.

Vice President Garner stepped out
OF the ordinarily quiet role of pre-
siding officer yesterday long enough
to shatter an old Senate custom, by
announcing that henceforth he ex-
poets ito exercise some discretion"
in selecting Senate conferees on
legislation.
He also made known during ensuing
debate that his policy in naming con-
ferees will be to consider members in
sympathy with the Senate's position
on the bill to be placed in their charge.
These conference committees are
the important groups which, joining
with similar House managers, mould
bills into final statutory form.
Echo of Relief Dispute.
The startled Senators foresaw two
immediate results of the Vice Presi-
dents declaration: Garner playing a
more direct part in the administra-
tion's legislative program and de-
parture from the ancient habit by
which presiding officers automatically
designated conferees chosen by the
chairman of the committee which
handled the bill in question.
The Texans announcement was an
echo of the recent conference dispute
oevr the S4,8SO 900 900 relief bill, in
which Senator Robinson, Democratic
leader, asserted that four of the Sen
ate conferees were enemies" of the
bill. They had been named by Sena-
tor Glass, Democrat of Virginia. Rob-
inson protested at that time against
the system by which bill was en-
trusted to its enemies"
"As far .as the record shows the
occupant of the chair appoints the
conferees," Garner told the Senate
today. Whereas he doesn't even see
the Names
Never Sees List.
Usually the names are sent to the
desk by the committee chairman and
read by the Senate clerk without ever
reaching the presiding officer.
Hereafter" Garner continued, "the
present occupant of the chair expects
to exercise discretion in the appoint
ment of conferees."
Senator McNary, Republican leader,
quickly challenged Gamers statement,
contending the Senate had the right
to elect its conferees. Garner agreed
with that view, and said the Senate
could elect them if it chose, but that
when he was charged with the duty
OF appointing them he would see that
they we're in sympathy with the bill.

$3.50 DAMAGES GIVEN
IN ASSAULT CASE
Mrs. Elsie Jardine Wins Verdict
in Suit Against Former
Park Police Officer.

Mrs. Elsie Jardine, 119 c street
northeast, was awarded $3.50 damages
in District Supreme Court yesterday
from Alfred Wilmott, former beuten-
ant of Capitol Police, whom she ac-
cused of striking her as she tried to
prevent him from beating her son.
The verdict was returned by a jury
sitting before Justice Jennings Bailey.
Wilmott was not represented by
counsel at the trial.
Mrs. Jardine said she interfered
after the police officer had arrested
her son. George Smith, in March,
1884. She said Wilmott was beating
the boy and that he also struck her.

Style Chats

Paris (UP)-One of the incest country dresses for autumn and winter has been shown at the house of Jenny in soft, pliable suede.
 A soft, warm shade between beige and brown has been chosen for this practical garment, which is cut straight and tailored with long sleeves. The dress is made high at the neck with small col- lar and trimmed by buttons and wide belt, of deeper brown leath- CT. The suede used for this dress Is similar but much thinner than that used for short golf Jackets, and is warm and comfortable for walks in the country as the leather is wind-proof.
 Another sports outfit from the same house consists of three-piece suit with a divided skirt. This cos tune is in 9 brownish red mixture of wool which makes a cape, a tailored jacket with outstanding pockets and the divided skirt which has been pressed to simulate, kick pleats back and front. The vogue for trousers promises to become popular as every important dress house shows at least one golf costume of country outfit with trousers instead of a skirt.
 Less severe and eccentric is Jenny's ensemble of brown and white tweed mixture coat worn over a brown and white checked dress. The dress is made high at the neck with front and back full ness above the waist achieved by impressed pleats which are caught in at the belted waist, then released below the hips to give fitness to the skirt.
