GENEVA. April 16.-French For eign Minister Pierre Laval created a sensation in League of Nations circles today by announcing he plans to revive the French draft of a resolution criticizing Germany's treaty repudiation through her re- armament program. France, has de- cided, he said, she prefers to get some condemnation of Germany's act even if supported only by sec ton of the council rather than an unanimous endorsed resolution of no significance.
 The French appeal caused strife among members of the, council.
 Denmark and Poland are under stood to be leading a camp which desires gentle handling of Ger many's unilateral abfogation. of mill itary clauses of the treaty. Poland and some South American states also are reported anxious to soft pedal any threats to impose sanc-i tions on future treaty violators.

CHANGE IN LAW MAY RESULT IN
 NEW ARMY ERA
By HERBERT HUMMER

WASHINGTON, April l5-Unless there is slip somewhere along the line to upset carefully laid plans, the United States army will have occasion to remember the present session of Congress for years to come.
 This branch ot uncle Sam's fight ing forces is getting the breaks on capitol hill this year as seldom be- fore.
 Almost in routine fashion Sena- tors and Representatives agreed to the proposal of General Douglas Macarthur, chief of staff, and oth- CTS of the army high command, to increase the size of the nations mi Ii t a ry establishment by 46,000 men-creating the largest standing army in time of peace the country ever has had.
 Encouraged by this victory, the general staff has set in motion a drive to change it's system Of pro- motions in the army.
 Approved by the President, Sena- tor Sheppard of Texas, chairman of the Senate military affairs com mittee, has introduced legislation which, if enacted, will overhaul com pletely the present promotion sys- tenn.
 A New Promotion System
 As Senator Sheppard says of his bill:
 Tt will make a welcome and in- spring change from the dreary and monotonous spectacle of 10,460 of ficers ranged one above the other on the advancement list from second lieutenant to colonel, virtual prison CTS most of them behind the bars of hopeless seniority system, each waiting for the next one above him tardily to be promoted, gra- ciously to resign, thoughtfully to desert, obligingiy to be court-mar- tialed, generously to retire. or con- siderately to die"
 Some idea as to the hardships imposed by the present system of promotions may be had when it is considered that if a second lieute1- ant enters his second lieutenancy at the age of 23. serves the required six years as such as 10 years as first

LOS ANGELES, April 15.- The sky, the waves. the ocean depths where turks the elements of surprise often vital to naval victory?
 That is one of the fascinating questions involved in the greatest maneuvers the United States navy ever planned, which will be staged in the northern Pacific ocean May 3 to June 10.
 The men who rlde the clouds con- fidently expect to show that the most powerful defensive weapon Of the United States is found in the wings of the navy. There will be approximately 500 airp.anes and more than a thousand aviators out with the fleet to demonstrate this
 Distance No Problem
 The fact that the maneuvers will have an operating area of some 5,000,000 square miles, extending from the Pacific coast to Midway (more than 1,200 miles west of Honolulu and from the Aleutians of Alaska to the Tropic of Cancer, does not feaze the naval birdmen. They point with pride to their new patrol fighting ships, cruisers of the air, which have made formation flights during the last six months equal to any jump within the area.
 AS to power on the waves, all naval officers agree on the power of the main battle line of dread naughts, the newer and faster scout ships, the cruisers.
 AS another element of that sur prise, which often holds the key to victory, there is the mosquito fleet, composed of turbulent little hornets of the waves, the destroyer flotillas. There will be some TO or more of these 37-knot fighters with their deadly torpedoes, still regarded as the most effective weapons against main battle line.
 Lone Wolves In It Too
 The men who talk least are. the picked strategists aboard the lone wolves of the sea-the underseas men. They do not have to talk, for all naval tacticians know from ex- perience that for actual demonstra- ton of surprise the undersea cruis- CTS hold the honors.
 There will be at least six world cruising submarines, augmented by two dozen or more smaller coast de fens'e submarines. These lone wolves carry sufficient 45-knot tor oedoes to put out of commission the whole surface force, battleships, air. craft carriers, cruisers and destroy CTS.
 By the middle of June these men of the sky, the waves and the depths of the sea will know the answer. Most of the details will remain secret, but the navy will have been put through one of it's most gruel- ling tests.

 CONTEMPLATED
Government Accused of Balancing Budget by Fail ure to Pay U. s. Debt LABOR DENOUNCES
 OFFICIAL ACTION Special Department Will Be Created to Handle
 Aerial Defense

LONDON, April 16.-As the gov ernment announced it was setting
 up special department to deal
 with safeguarding the British Isles
 against air attacks, it was charged
 by opposition leaders with balanc- ing the budget through failure to
 pay the United States war debt, and
 the comparatively modest conces- sions accorded taxpayers despite a surplus forecast for the current fis- cal year is being interpreted as paving the way for further increas- es in British armament.
 The war debt was brought up by George Lansbury, labor leader, who said. Chancellor of Exchequer Me-. vile Chamberlain is able to balance accounts only by refusing to pay Britain's debt to the United States. If the labor government defaulted in the same way we should have been told it was the end of all things"
 James Maxton, left wing Socialist, said:sI now notice debts no longer need be mentioned; that the very satisfactory way of dealing with the extraordinary debts has been reach ed by letting them drop into the limbo of forgotten things z Chancellor Chamberlain yeser- day, in presenting the 1935-l938 budget, estimated surplus of $28, { 100000 as clearly an improvement of Grea.

SENATE PASSES ALASKA SCHOOL, MINING ITEM s
$46,000 for Education, $l60,000 for Ceolog-
 ical Survey Mapping

WASHINGTON, April 16.- The Department of Interior bill, appro- priating $61 ,500,OO0, has been ap- proved by the Senate. The measure now carries $2,500,000 more than when passed by the House. Among the additional items are $46,000 for public schools in Alaska and $780, 900 for mineral and mining inves- tigation.
 The 5000 for Alaska schools is understood here to be the regular appropriation from the Alaska fund for this purpose and not PWA funds as now being sought. The $160,000 is for the Geological Survey to car- ry on it's mapping and other work and is customary appropriation. It is not interpreted here as being federal aid for the new Territorial Department of Mines.
 B. D. Stewart, Commissioner of Mines, and A. E. Karnes, Commits sioner of Education, are both in Washington now in an effort to ob- tain aids for their respective de- partments.

AAA BOmbardment Mounts; Debate On ROOseveIt Farm
 Policies Seen for Summer
By BYRON PRICE
by b1hON FRICE tChief of Bureau, The Associated
 prpse WaShinSfnnl

(Chief of Bureau, The Associated
 Press, Washington
 The AAA appears to be accumu- lating constantly larger share of the alphabetical troubles of the Roosevelt Administration.
 Up to quite recently, what this farm relief agency was doing was largely overshadowed by the activi- ties of it's more noisy brothers, and sisters.
 MIRA, in particular, stirred up such loud controversy that those who wanted to start an argument about AAA couldn't make them selves heard. At times the vicissi- tudes of PWA and EZRA took turns playing the lead role in the Wash ington extravaganza.
 Nowadays, however, AAA Is com ing more and more into public and private discussion. There is every sign that the next few months will see the Roosevelt farm policies de- bated with growing intensity both in and out of congress.
 AAA Troubles
 Here are a few of the things AAA officials have to think about:
 The cotton program has piled up nearly 6,000.000 bales in the hands of the government, and there is widespread apprehension that when it is turned loose Gas presumably it must be some time) prices will crack badly. Many attributed to that cause the recent case of jitters in the cotton market.
 Drought has upset completely the plan to hold wheat acreage to 90 per cent of the l928-32 base average. After changing their minds several times, officials new plan to permit farmers to plant 165 per cent of their base acreage. What will hap pen during the next few years when presumably an effort will be made to get back on the track again?
 Definite back -peddling is indicat- ed on the milk program, under which an attempt was made to fix the price to the consumer through marketing agreements Great uncer- tainty and confusion has developed in the face of court decisions hold ing such agreements invalid except where the milk moves across state lines.
 Congress Unsympathetic
 Western livestock men are refus- ing to agree to an AAA proposal for levying beef and mutton processing taxes to pay benefits to farmers for adjusting the production of feed grains.
 Corn-hog processing taxes are running behind the corn-hog bene-

FARGO, North Dakota, April 15.- Smith Stimmell, one of the picked men of the Seventh Independent Ohio Cavalry troops selected to act at the White House as the person. al bodyguard of Abraham Lincoln during the Civil War, and promi nent pioneer attorney, is dead at his home here as the result of complications of old age, in his 92nd year.
 College To War
 His first enlistment for Civil War service was in an Ohio volunteer infantry re g m n t, recruited for three months duty. At the end of that time he entered Ohio Wesleyan University to study law, but at the close of his first year he enlisted with the Seventh Independent Ohio Cavalry and was selected as one of the guard for the President. This personal bodyguard was still in service as such at the time of Lin coln's assassination, but was dis missed by President Andrew John- son soon after and was mustered out in September. 1865.
 Prominent As Lawyer
 Resuming his studies, MT. Stim- mell was graduated from Ohio Wes- leyan in 1869 and then studied for two years at the Cincinnati law school. He practiced in Cincinnati several years and then removed to Fargo, where he became promi- nent in his profession as well as ir

 In ordering new trial, Justice Sutherland said the records showed Henry Singer, Assistant United States Attorney for Eastern New York, was guilty of misconduct.
