PEACE PLAN
FOR EUROPE

''peace plan" of her own in reject
ing Chancellor Hitler's proposals,

office circles today as French en-
VoyS to the Locarno power capitals
were called together for an un'
precedented conference in Paris

Berlin.
The plan would concern the
whole of Europe, and not only the
Locarno powers, and it was re-
ported France intends to demand
her new plan be discussed publicly
before the League Of Nations
council.
Germany would be invited to
attend the council meeting.
The plan, which Joseph Paul
Boncour, minister Of state and
League of Nations representative,
was reported to have drawn UP,
would operate within the frame
work of the League. 1t would be
based on three main points:
!. Collective security.
2. Obligatory restoration OF
international law.
8. Respect of treaties.
It was not Immediately clear
whether the second and third
points would be retroactive to az
feet the Rhineland crisis In any
way.
The unusual conference Of am
baSsadors was attended by Pre-.
mier Albert Sarraut, Foreign Min
lister Flandin, PaulBoncour and

Prisoners Build
Garage When
County Fails

CENTREVILLE, Md, April 3.
For several years the grand jury
has returned a report advocating
erection of new garage at the
county jail. But the supervisors
never made funds available.
But today a new garage was
completed. Seven prisoners, who
preferred to work in the open
rather than stay in their cells,
volunteered to do the work. First
they raised the old garage,
salvaged material and erected the
new one.
The men were placed on their
honor not to attempt to escape,
and did the work without guards
and with little supervision.

FEARS ARE HELD

Fate of al Americans in
Ethiopian Interior Still
Is Unknown.
BY the Associated Press.


Adds ABBA, May 30.-The fate
OF SO missionaries in the Ethiopian
interior, Al of whom are Americans,
still Is unknown, d.. T. A. Lambie,
field director of the Ethiopian mission
service, said today.
DR.. 1ambie's own headquarters in
the capital were untouched during
the rioting which followed Emperor
Halle Selassie's flight and preceded
the entrance May of the italian
Army.
DR.. Lambies efforts since then to
reach the missionaries in the interior
have failed thus far.
He has pledged allegiance to Italy
for the is stations of the Sudan
interior mission, which have been in
Ethiopia for nine years.
Explaining his work, DR.. Lambie
said:
I'VE never have and never will, as
q mission, enter politics,
If the government Is Italian, we
shall support the Italian govern
ment-ever as the Lord said, Give
unto Caesar the things that are
Caesars and to God the things that
are Gods"
DR.. Lanbie explained his work
was solely to convert heathens to
Christianity and therefore his mis-
sions could work under all govern
ments.

Of payments indefinitely. Therefore,
the Latin American bonds now In de-
fault are not going to be total loss.
Economic conditions in Latin America
will improve. prices will gradually re-
cover-they are already beginning to
recover-and, when a reasonable de-
gree Of normalcy has been attained,
the first thing to be cared for will
be the national credit
No Aim to Repudiate.
Irrelevant of recent political
changes, the one consistent thought of
the Latin American governments has
been, and is today. that no repudia-
tion will occur and that every effort
will be made to resume service as
soon as world conditions make this
possible. This is not the case of the
European war debts. Nor 1t Is the
case of the Confederacy debts, which
will never be paid.
Something else to be considered
when a readjustment Of the Latin
American debts Is undertaken is the
fact that disclosure of the methods
employed in the negotiation of the de.
faulted loans has placed much Of the
responsibility on the bankers shoul-
ders. Senatorial investigations have
shown that the Latin American gov
ernments were all but dragged into
borrowing by the tempting offers of
bankers who suggested and promoted
public works, development Of natural
resources. arms purchases and f1nan-
cial enterprises with the sky as
limit. Reckless borrowing was only
made possible by reckless lending.

the pending tax on corporate earnings
as impracticable and a brake on busi-

Navy Expansion Measure
Passed by the House

ONCE international naval disarma-
~ ment efforts have failed, those who
advocate adequate national defense re-
joice in the passage by the house Of
the bill appropriating approximately
$531 100000 to build our navy up to
treaty strength. Representative Marc
antonio of New York and few others
put up loud opposition, but a record
vote was not necessary. The directors
dwelt especially on a clause authoriz-
ing the laying of keels for two $4,000
ton battleships after January 1. 1887,
should any foreign signatory to the
London naval treaty start battleship
replacement program. Two days later
they might have read dispatches from
London saying rumOrs had reached
there that Japan was considering lay
ing down a 5000 ton battleship armed
with 21-inch guns.
Appropriations in the bill. along with
other available funds, will give the
navy a total Of $780,, 237, S07 for the
next fiscal year, starting July /.

Popular Front" coalition Of Com
munists, Socialists, Radical Socialists
and minor left wing groups. The new
chamber does not meet until June, and
the confusion Is so great that there are
fears of chaos and financial panic In
the interim. Many believe the Popular
Front will be unable to form stable
government to succeed that Of Premier
Sarraut. The lead must be taken by
the Socialists, for they now form the
largest group in the chamber with 146
seats. The Radical Socialists have 115,
the Communists 72 and minor left
parties A. The National bloc, includ-
ing center and right parties opposed to
