VICHY, France, Jan. "a R.-Mar-

last night 1t had accepted the Of
fer of Japan to mediate in the four
months Asiatic border conflict
which has led to large-scale inva-
sion of French Indo- China by Thai
lands army, air bombing of cities
on both sides and a pitched naval
battle.
An authoritative source said that
back of Vichy's readiness to accept
Japan's good Offices was a German
suggestion" which sprang from a
desire to exclude any possibility of
United States intervention. French
colonial leaders were said to have
pressed for an invitation to WASH
ington to mediate; the turn to
Toxic was described as intended to
forestall this.
French officials in Indo-China, it
was learned, favored asking United
States mediation and considered the
fairest arbiter the American Min
lister to Thailand, Hugh Gladney
Grant.
1t was emphasized, however, that
this was only a suggestion and that
no official communication ever in
dicated the French government con-
sidered such step. American cir

Disposal Is Allowed
II Years After Death
Of Lost GrundchiId

SeWell A. Reeves, baker and con-
fectioner who died December 4, con-
sidered his property in the 1900 block
of F and G streets NV. so valuable
that he decreed in his will it could
not be sold until 81 years after the
death of his last grandchild who was
alive at his death.
This was disclosed today when a
petition for the probate of Mr..
Reeves will, drawn July 6, 1888,
was filed in District Court. The will
revealed that his property at 1909
F street NV. is assessed at 1929 1888
and that at 1908 G street NV, at
$94271.
The teStator wrote into his will
that the National Savings g. Trust
Co., as trustee, cannot sell these two
properties until final distribution of
his estate. At that time, his entire
estate will go to his descendants
outright.
In addition to these downtown
holdings, MI. Reeves left property
at 1859 wyoming avenue NV. as
sessed at $1,000, real estate in
Front Royal, Va, with an assessed
value of $500, as we'll as personal
property valued at $49,391. Debts
of the estate will be around $4,000,
Attorney j. Fontaine Hall informed
the court.
Mr.. Reeves left his business to
his son, Algernon P. Reeves, who
survives him here, and in addition
bequeathed to him 200 shares of
stock in the Washington American
League Baseball Club.
The testator expressed desire
for his son and grandson to con-
tinue the business.

To listen and advise Then shortly, also to bring

suspicious The Premier of France could do with
a listening post dear woman always alert in
his interest
Very soon, then, all Paris knew that the
Marquise Jeanne was arranging things for the
Premier, as good and faithful wife might also
have arranged them She was much concerned that
ing which set polite Paris to tittering-or de-
ploring. For we all had to laugh at the marquse's
insistence that Daladier ride a horse Up to that
time he had pedalled humble bicycle from his
almost suburban apartment to his office. Then he
took to the horse
To be sure the marquise had personally
selected the animal. It's name was Pegasus. But
it not so fiery a beast as the animal of the
legend 1t was instead, a staid, respectable old
horse that had carried a generation of children
learning to ride upon its faithful back. 1t carried
the Premier as faithfully. And then, one morning,
Pegasus wasn't feeling quite up to the Premier. So
the riding master substituted another horse, quite
as dependable. The story that Paris was soon
laughing over l don't know how they knew, eX-
actly but here it is.
They say that as the two were walking their
horses down the Bots, suddenly Marquise Jeanne
told the Premier about the divorce which, she said,

flick fly from the neck of her lovely horse. But

high step in years. But a high step was not what
the Premier's craftsmanship could grapple with.
At that high step, the Premier lost the reins And

But if Duchesse Marie Therese accepted this
new relationship with shrug and cynicism,
Helene Comtesse de Portes did not accept it, She
was busy in those days, that managing, plotting,
terrible woman. And shortly Jeanne, the marquise,
realized that Comtesse Helene was busy.
Busy about herself the Premers favored
friend. Busy Matching her plots against the
Premier. Busy playing her sef-chosen role of
Madame de Recamer or Madame de Sevigne, or
Du Barry or Pompadour. as you will. Those were
all Frenchwomen who had influenced statesmen,
dabbled in the destinies of a nation
Bit by telling bit, from our Paris salons we
could see how Marquse Jeanne influencing
her great man. We also could see, in those days
after 1886 how those two women sowing the
seeds of bitter hatred between the two leading
statesmen of France-the men who should have
been joining forces TO avert the German peril.
Jeanne de Crussol saw things partly with the
yes of the common man-that was her simple
Breton beginnings. And partly, she saw things
with the eyes of property. For she not an
heiress? And common men France had had all
the war they wanted; and the other hand,
property paid high taxes whenever there was a
war So war would be bad Tor everybody. And war
must be avertcd.
These things the marquise whispered to her
Premier, in the gentle, persuasive reasoned ways
of a clever woman with the man she loves.

And the Premier? We used to smile at him
and shake our heads, and be little astounded at
him. and yet little sympathetic for it was so very
apparent what had happened to him.
Love had come to him. In his dry, hard
working middle age, he had blossomed into youth
again. A twice happy man was he, who had won
great worldly power and glory. And had won, at
the same time the dear woman of his heart.
Love and power, days in an important office
guiding the destiny Of France, evenings spent with
her after long, hard days All, those evenings gave
him something to live for. They gave point and
meaning to his work. For, he seemed to feel he
