BERN, Switzerland, Nov 10
German dominated Europe will
ignore Armistice Day except in Un-
occupied France, where the OBJ
servance will be restricted to me-
mortal services for the war dead.
German military authorities have
forbidden demonstrations or cele-
brations of the Allied victory of
1918 in Belgium and Occupied
France, and have taken strict meas
ures to prevent any repetition of
incidents which occurred last year.
In the 1910 observance in Paris
student demonstrations occurred in
which several were reported shot.
AS usual Germany and the other
states who were her allies in the
World War will consider the day
one of degradation and take no
note of it except in possible edi-
torial comment on the Versailles
Treaty.

Senate Passes Bill
Adding 100 Men 10
D. {. Police Force
No Delay Expected
In Sending Emergency
Plan to White House
"A. P. Wirephoto.

The Senate this afternoon passed
the bill adding 100 men TO the
Washington police force to meet the
crowded conditions growing out of
the defense emergency.
The House approved the increase
several months ago. and, while it
must go back there for action on a
minor amendment, no delay is ex-
pected in sending it to the White
House for signature. The amend
ment merely reduces the apprepria-
ton to cover the remainder of the
fiscal year. When the House passed
the bill it was thought the men
would be appointed at an earlier
date.
The Senate also passed and sent
to the House the new vagrancy
bill, designed to strengthen the
hands of the police in preventing
crime in the District. Some slight
changes in the bill passed by the
House made further legislative &C
ton necessary.
Jobless Compensation Passes.
A third House measure passed and
sent to the White House makes a
minor change in the local Unem-
ployment Compensation Act It
postpones until 1943 the requirement
in the present law that the Com
pensation Commission make a re-
port in 1912 on the experience
ratings of employers for the purpose
OF determining what adjustment
should be made in unemployment
tax rates. The postponement is
being made because Congress is now
considering a legislative readjust-
ment of the rates.
The vagrancy bill has been re-
written to meet objections that
prompted the President to veto an
earlier measure that passed both
houses of Congress in September.
The President at that time indorsed
the purpose OF the Dill. but took the
position that some of the definitions
| of vagrancy in the original draft
were too broad.
Senator Mcclellan. Democrat, Of
Tennessee announced he was not
going to object to the increase, but
thought the Senate should know
! that after these men are added,
Washington will have a larger po-
lice force than any comparable city
except Boston.
Comparisons Made.
The Tennesseean read the follow
ing statistics:

663 900 has LAST policemen with

Nairobi, Kenya Colony, March II - (UP) - A sensational charge of murder involving British high so- ciety and blue -blooded nobility was placed today against Major Sir Delves Broughton in connection with the staying of the Earl of Erroll, high constable for Scotland.
 The case seemed to hinge upon two revolverS which disappeared from the mantlepiece of Broughton's bedroom two days before the Earl of Erroll was found dead in his au- tomobile on a lonely road in the Bush County January 24.
 The guns never have been found. Police charge that the Earl'S killer sought to pass off his murder as suicide.
 The Earl was found dead a few hours after he, Broughton and Lady Broughton attended a gay party at the Muthaiga Club, a gathering place for British society and off cers in this African colony.
 At a coroner's inquest Broughton testified that the earl drove away alone after the party.
 Killed In Car
 However, the senior government pathologist. Dr. Vint. testified at the inquest that he believed the Earl had been killed by two revol- yer shots fired through the window of the car as the earl sat in the front seat.

JOHNSTON NOW
 IN PRISON CELL
Surrenders in Office of His Attorney; Taken at Once
 to Wethersfield

New Haven, Conn, March II. - (UP)---John s. Johnston, New York broker convicted in the Waterbury corruption scandal, surrendered to- day to state police at the office of his attorney, Samuel A. Persky. In company with two officers he was taken to prison at Wethersfield to begin a to 5 year term. His sur- render left only one of ten defend- ants not in custody and in prison. Former Waterbury Comptroller Dan- iel J. Leary, under sentence of 10 to IS years, dropped from sight last Thursday and reportedly fled to Florida as police called at his home to take him to the prison.
 Johnston was involved in the $3,- 500,000 graft conspiracy in the capacity of a broker hired by the city to market bonds and secure and negotiate temporary loans for the administration. He reportedly re- ceived $211,247 for these services although the supreme court observed there. was "very little evidence to substantiate @ claim that Johnston performed any services for the city and none that indicated in the least the extent of those services"
