PW net and wasVclescted for 'nearly
an hour with the Chief Executive. The
trend of 'their discussions was net re
vealed, but there were Indications that
Sir. Harding was seeking some means
of nt least bringing the Powers together
at a later conference, when present
strains en International relations may
have been removed.
Heme of the delegates nre taking the
position, en the ether hand, that no
such meeting would be practicable until
there appeared unmlstakable cvldcnce
of a change of view among the dis
agreeing Powers. It was Indicated to te
day thnt In the American group there
was n feeling that there would be noth
ing te discuss In any naval cenference
In the ncar.future unless the Beet reso
lutions regarding submarines nre
adopted nnd the adherence of the
smaller nations te them Is invited.
The purpese of the suggested plcnnry
session would be primarily- te afford an
ej'PprtJinity for a full statement of the
British view In regard te submarines
nnd auxiliary craft, but It is under
stood that the .Beet resolutions might
nlse be considered.
Itoet Resolutions Significant
The American delegates attach a great
deal of Impertance te these noet reso
lutions, nlmest ns much as they de te
the Itoet four-point resolution laying
down principles for guidance -of the
Powers In their dealings with the Far
bast. Though unscnsatlenal in ap
pearance, the proposed submarine dec
laration. In the opinion of the Ameri
cans, marked U dlntlnrt nilvnnrn tnur.l
the movement te divest nnval war of
its most repellent Inhumane feature.
The British delegation, through one
ui in sneKcsmcn teuny, whlle approv
ing of the resolutions In principle, re
called the fart that similar resolutions
adopted uy The Hague Conference many
years age had net been respected, nnd
they (,ccincd mere or less skeptical as
te the value of the Itoet resolutions.
rrcpencnts of the resolutions feel,
hew ever, that they are an Improvement
ever The Hague rules In that they con cen
tnln within themselves the means for
severely punishing violators of the reg
ulations. It is conceivable that the In
ternational Supreme Court, an out
growth of the Paris Conference, may be
the tribunnl which in the future would
determine whether thebe regulations
have been vielnted.
Tackle Iteplaccmcnt Problem
Naval experts nre preparing te take
up the capital ship replacement pro
gram as coon as the Naval Cemmittee
reaches a point that will permit lt te
turn te the subject. A preliminary
meeting of the experts was scheduled te
be held late today.
French acceptance of the 1715,000
ten limitation en capital ships still
hinges, according te M. Sarrnut's
formal statement te the Naval Com
mittee, en ngrcemcut ns te details In
regard te the ten-year naval holiday
and nlse en determination of the period
of years for which the tonnage limita
tion agreement is te run.
He indicated that France desired te
begin in 1027, four years befere the end
of the ten-year naval holiday, con
struction of such capital ships ns might
be necessary te replace units In her llect
which will have passed the twenty-year
mark by 1031.
If this Miggcstlen is nccepted the
actual period of the holiday would be
cut te six years, ns under the original
American proposal no building was te
be started until the. full ten years have
clepe I.
IS'avnl officials have realized, how hew
tver, thnt many things might happen
which weud mnke a further conference
desirable befere the ten years were up,
and there has been informal discussion
nmeng the delegations nf the desirabil
ity of calUns for nnetlier meeting of
the Conference in 1020 or 1027.

itself with outlining principles te ue
followed then, should no radical change

AIRCRAFT CARRIERS
ANOTHER PROBLEM
Washington, Dec. 20. (By A. P.)
The status of aircraft carriers in
modern naval establishments may prove
difficult of determination for nuval
limitation purpose, some American offi
cials believe, as a result of recent de
velopments. The question was up today
before the Cenference Naval Committee,
but lt was net clear whether all five
Powers aere prepared te accept the
American view thnt elrn-aft carriers
are purely an offensive weapon.
The American position Is bahed en
pWnes. se far as naval use is concerned,
the argument mat nirpiuiies mm ecu-
are eentiaii.v ueit'iiMve in iniuiit-n-r
mill limited te oneriltleil 111 llOIll
waters. As neon us u surface vessel
is provided, however, which can cou ceu
vcv the airships te ether waters and
from which they can take fllsht en an
offensive mission, nnd te which they
can return when their mission is con
cluded, it is the American view that a
potential offensive character has been
given the air fleets of the nation pos
sessing such carriers.
In a general wny, aircraft are new
limited te operations within 200 miles
or se of land. Fleets can make seme
use of nallcr types of scouting planes
te locate hostile ships, but, returning
te a battleship is net practical for any
thing but a seaplane, and even then in
n smooth tea. ,
There is u tceling among some offi
cers however, that airplanes accom
panying a fleet en airplane carriers
can be made of distinct use In defense
ncalnst submarines, cither for the
fichting fleet Itself or in protection of
trade routes from submarine raiders.
In view of the decision of France
te nlnn for tripling her submarine fleet
and the British reply that Great Brit
ain in that ease could accept no lim
itation en auxiliary agencies te deal
with submarines, it appeared possible
that the question of limiting airplane

imum size of such sh ps at 27,000 tens,
as the American delegation proposed,
'Xernf.OOO-ten.figure

BRITISH TO BE PREPARED
Washington, Dec. 20. Following an.
neunccment by the Arms Cenference
Taval Committee yesterday that lt had
abandoned its efforts te reach an agree
ment for limitation of submarine and
auxiliary ship tennage, there were ex
pressions of disappointment from the
American, Italian and Japancse delega
tions and a wnrnlng from the British
group by Arthur J. Balfour that Great
Britain must regard the French sub
marieo program as "a very great men
nee" te British security.
Mr. Balfour had no doubt, If the
occasion ever arose, that Britain would
be equal te lt, but it was en condition
that she reserved the full right te build
nnv nuxtllarv craft which she censid
ered necessary te deal with the situa
tion. Fer the Italian group Senater Schan
zer nlse sneke of the "serious pre-
occupations" of Italy because of the
"economic sacrifices" and the "polit
ical consequences" which the French
naval program might produce.

influenced "bv any comnarlsen with
what our neighbors arc doing or by anx

"Herein," M. Sarraut continued,
"lies the profound dlffcrcnce between
our points of view nnd theso of ethers.
"We object te hnvlng lt believed or te
having lt said that the creation by
France of n defensive weapon involving
n certain tennage of submarines could
be considered no a nienace te uny of her
friends."
Recalls Past Wnrs
Mr. Balfour declared that whlle It
was "unthlnkable" that anything but
friendship should prevail between Great
Britain and France hlbtery recalled that
they had been In conflict in the "dis
tant pnst." Britain nlwaya had pos
sessed superior naval armament and in
ferior land forces te Fiance, he said,
adding:
"Never in the history of France has

Britain te strike a blew at her heart.
In the nature of things thnt must be se.
Ne Inferior military Power has ever yet
been able te Invade or seriously imperil

"Suppese the almost Inconceivable
happened nnd close allies became en

case no British superiority of capital
ships would Imperil the life of France
for an hour.

In the face of France with the largest

believe that iu time of stress she would
net se use It. If Britain were unarmed
against submarines it was evident that
France, using that felonious weapon,
could destroy her very existence.'
Mr Ttnlfeiir KAid M. Sarraut had
talked of the abKolute necessity for
France of possessing a fleet of 00,001)

"Fer what purpose? he continued.

RESOLUTIONS OF ROOT

Washington, Dec. 20. The text of
proposals presented by Ellhu Itoet te
the Arms Conference yesterday te hu
manize the submarine warfare fellows
I. The signatory Powers, desiring te
make mere effective the rules adopted
n,v civilized nations iur me iiiuiwumi
of the lives of neutrals and non-com
batanlH at sen in time of war. declare
that among these rules the following
nre te be deemed an cstabllshea part
of International law : ...
First. A merchant vessel must he
ordered te step for visit and search te
detcrmine its character before It can be
captured. . , 4 .
A mercnani veoect .uuai, ui, ,

and search after warning.
a merMinnt vessel must net be de
streyed unless the crew nnd passengers
have been first placed In safety.
Second, lieillgercnt Huuinurincs ure
net, under nny circumstances, exempt
from the universal rules abeve stated;
and If a submarine cannot capture a
merchant vessel In conformity with
these rules, the existing law of nations
requires it te desist from attack and
from capture and te permit the mer
chant vessel te proceed unmolested.
The signatory Powers Invite the nd nd
herence of all ether civilized Powers te
the foregoing Btntemcnt of established
law, te the end that there may be a
clear public understanding throughout
the world of the standards of conduct
by which the public opinion of the
world is te pass judgment upon future
belligerents.
II. The signatory Powers recognize
the practical impossibility of using sub
marines as commerce destroyers without
violating the requirements universally
accepted by civilized nations for the
protection of the lives of neutrals and
non-ceihbatonts, nnd te the end that
the prohibition of such use shall be uni
versally accepted as a part of the law
of nations, they declare their assent
te Mich prohibition nnd Invite all ether
nations te adhere thereto.
III. The signatory Powers desiring
te Insure the enforcement of the hu
mane rules declared by them with re
spect te the prohibition of the use of
submarines in warfare, further declare
that any person In the servlce of any
nt tlm Powers adentlnc these rules who
Hhall violate any of the rules thus
adopted, whether or net such person Is
under orders of a governmental supe

After a brief pause Mr. Gilpin taid
he would read te Mr. Chandler nn ex

became of the $0021. It bald Fred T.
Chandler, Jr., took part In the under
writing of the American Ship nnd

That amount, the statement declured,

This completed his testimony.
At the beginning of his statement,
Mr. Chandler explained $1)021.53 should
be subtracted from the $153,031.47
debited against him en the concern's

"New. Mr. Reber," he said, "that

Mr. Gilpin said he wanted it made
clear thnt the $35,000 Hem was net

Mr. Chandler hnd included his life in

Beldleman by Snyder, when the lnltcr
was Auditor General, but would offer
no explanation.
The two candidates were preceded by
several hours by W. Hurry Baker, sec
retary of the State Senate, who Is
Bcldleman's campaign manager. It Is
understood that Baker Is arranglnz n
series of conferences for Beldleman nt
which the Lieutenant Governer win
meet lenders in this section ei me
Stnte. Among these, of course, are
Senater Vare and Governer Sproul.
tfifvdcr repeated thnt In paying Bel-
Aiemnn Mm S.-.IKIO. he. Snyder, "was
the Auditor General and the boss, lie
ulee reiterated that: "The only mis mis
take I made was that I did net pay
Eddie mere. The only mistake he made
whs that he did net charge mere, l
had a right te pay him. I was the, boss.
Why the Stnte ewes him 5-1000 new
en another claim."
De you expect te see any political
leaders while you are?" Mr. Beldleman
was asked.
"Oh, yes," he replied, "if we run
across them. I'm down here en a little
business."
Mr. Beldleman was asked te state
where the $5000 check story was wrong,
as he says.
"In the first place." replied the lieu
tenant Governer, "I did net knock off
$13,000 from the Wcstlnghouse clulm.
Correspondence will show thnt the com
pany was entitled te this credit because
of havlug previously paid in the
$13,000.
Vare leaders say they never were for
Beldleman. At one point in the Bcldle
mnn progress, however. Sproul and
Crew were hopeful of lining up the
Vares. Van; men say the only one of
the se-called State 4dmlnistratlen can
didates they leek en with any favor
is Highway Commissioner Sadler. .lust
new Vare men nrcfer te talk about
Harry A. Mackey, chairman of the
Workmen's Compensation Beard, and
Receiver of Taxes Kcndrlck for Gover Gover
eor. The Magee inaugural will threw some
light en the plans of the new combina
tion. It will probably be decided
whether Jehn A. Bell, who aided the
Magee campaign financially, will be a
candidate, for Governer or for United
States Senater. Bell would like te be
Senater, and a move Is under way te
try te get Urew out or the held. The
Vares will be for Crew if he insists en
being a candidate for election for the
full term of United States, Senater.
Othenvlse they will be for Bell for
Senater.
Meanwhile the booms of Congressman
McFnddcn, of Bradford County, chair
man of the Heuso Cemmittee en Bank
ing and Currency, nnd of Jehn S.
Fisher, State Banking Commissioner,
are in the dnrk-her.su stage.
News come from Pittsburgh that
Colonel Jeseph II. Thompson, of Beaver
County, commander of the American
Legien in Pennsylvania, is about te
threw his hat In the ring. In a short
u Commander Thomnsen u-lll tour
time, Commander Thompson will tour
tuc winic in n membership drive for the
Legien. Colonel Thompson is regarded
ns a friend of both Penrose niul Vnrn.
His friends urge that as Sproul and
renrese admit tne service men should
be recognized in the Lieutenant nnv.
ernershlp, there is no reason why they
nheuld net b honored with the guber
naterial prize.
Pelltlcul observers nre uet under.
estimating the possibilities In n new
rii
that Gomner Sproul's term is drawing
10 ji ciobe, ami mac as a consequence
much of his State-wide power will lie
curtailed. Senater Crew is net well,
and his crln en the State erennlzntlnn
is loosening. Harry Baker has run
mi against a stene wall with the Reldle-
man boom. Meanwhile. Senater T.
Larry Eyre, of Chester County, bus
forsaken the State Administration
crowd, of which he was a leading light
during the legislative session.
Vare Still en the Jub
Senater Vnre Is htlll en the job. how
ever, mid his friends say he would just
as seen cut loose from Sproul us net.
When the new combination was first
mentioned tome tlme age, lt only com
prehended the Vare and Magee organi
zations. New, however, this nucleus
has gathered in Lancaster aud Schuyl
kill Counties, with ether counties yet
te be heard from.
The activities of the Vare-Magee
leaders and the disruption In the old
opreui-urow ranks may cause Sean

IT W4VS obvious te Helen Granger
ns she turned In nt the gateway of '
10 Cottage lane that the small bun-
tralOTV. trft l,..l W hoe,, .n,e.l
galew there had just been vacated
Although it was a cold New Year's
day, the deer and windows were open,
papers and excelsior were strewn evc
the perch and path, nelen mounted the
perch steps nnd walked in the open
deer. She found a rather disconsolate
looking young man within piling some
books from a built-in bookcase into n
hamper en the lloer.
"I found you Just In tlme," tnid
Helen joyously. "Yen see, I'm one of
the- collectors for " She paused nnd
looked at the man. who had turned ami
faced her with a quii-.r.lcnl smile en his
goed-lookliic face. "Yeu're Mr. Rebert
Jenes, T believe?"
He nodded as if net tee proud te
beast the Idi'titilv "More bills." he
sighed, digging 11 hnnd mechanically
into his pocket.
"It's net exactly a hill. As I said,
I am one of the volunteer collectors for
the Orten Vnlversity alumni fund. Your
name wbb given te me ns en of the
men who hnd pledged money for thn

glve offense, "and hadn't ceme across,"
sne niKieu qiurniv
"Hew much had I nledired?" nnltp(l
the man with a Blub.
Helen consulted a notebook in her
hnmlbng. "A huntlted tlellurs," ahe
read from the list of ilelliifiuents. "I'm

devil that has had te sell his furniture
nnd books te pay his creditors I didu t
realize it was as much as thnt."
"Then I'm glad I came," she said
Jubilantly. "Of ceurse you won't like
te go back en your pledge nene of the
Orten men ever de. But you sce they
gave me this list of the men who hadn't
sent in their pledge money because I
thought I could make It easy for them
te pay. Some of the men have families
and all that and lt really Is hard.
Yeu're down as a bachelor," she said,
looking again nt her list.
"Yes," said the man, "I'm all of
Hint, but what are you going te de te
make it easier for me te pay?
"Why, you tee, when college women
have te raise money for their nltna
mater they de something te earn the
money, you knew mnke scaling wax
beads, or batik blouses, or baskets, or
something. I even knew u girl thnt
baked bread for her pledge money. Se
it seemed te me that the men who find
it hard te raise their money could de
something in their spare time and get
their money that way without really
having te scrimp for it. Of course jeu
couldn't de Just thnt same sort of thing,
but tbcre nre all berts of things a mnn
could de "
"What, for Instance?" The man
looked In vain for a chair. "I'm sorry
te keep you standing. Let's sit down
nnd talk things ever en the stairs."
Se they sat en the bottom trend of the
narrow bungalow stairs that led te the
attic abeve the ground fleer nnd talked
matters ever. If a man lived In the
country, Helen suggested, he could raise
mushrooms. One man she knew was
going te ralse gulncn pigs and rabbits
for the college laboratory. The profess
ors in the biology department nt Orten
had premised te patronlze him.
"I don't knew ns.that would appeal
te me," laughed the delinquent alum
nus. "I'd probably get se attached te
the noer creatures after I'd raised them
that I'd be unwilling te ship them off
te tllClr execution. tut, Bt-riuusiy,
what de you think a fellow like me
could de te raise money that way?"
Helen looked him ever with careful
scrutiny.
"Well," she said, "if it weren't that
you were moving out of town I would
suggest that you ceme ever te our place
In the unrlnc and summer whenever you
have any spare tlme and pick berries
and fruit. Anybody can de that, and
we always have morn work than we can
find men te de it. Yeu don't mind be
cause I suggested It. de you?"
"Why, net in the least." His sraile
showed that the preposition both pleased
and amused him. "Besides. I'm net
really moving away that in, net far
away."
"It Isn't as If you would he doing
it for strangers," Helen cxplnined. "My
father nnd brothers nnd uncles and
grandfathers back as far as anybody
can remember have gene te Orten "
"But I wouldn't wnnt .te meet them
whlle I was picking berries nnd cher
ries nnd things. I'd only de It en con
dition tha they didn't see me "
"Thnt could be arranged beautifully,"
seethed the girl. "They have given me
charge of the farm. When I'm net
busy collecting pledges for Orten I'm
out in the country Inspecting crops and
trees nnd pigs and things. Really. I'm
qulte a farmer."
Arrangements having been made for
this Orten alumnus te report for work
nt her country plnce the third Saturday
aftcrnoeu in Mny for strawberry pick
ing. Helen started away.
Every Saturday afternoon nnd often
whele days during the week the young
man reported for work at the Granger
estate. Always he worked under Helen's
personal supervision nnd never ence did
he encounter any of the members of her
family who might knew the secret way
in which he wns making geed his pledge
te their alma mater.
One warm day in August, during
peach picking. Helen was net at. band
when her fruit picker nrrlved, but he
found his ladder in the accustomed
place and proceeded te work, unchal
lenged by the farmhands In adjoining
orchards.
When Helen did appear 6be came
running brenthlcssly and ordered her
empleye te come down from the ladder.
An open letter fluttered in her hnnd.
"What In the world deps this mean?"
she said accusingly. "Here is a letter
signed Rebert Jenes, c!ns of 1018. but
it's net your writlne. And it couldn't
be from you anyway, beeniwe It contains
money at this late date, but last year
I suffered financial reverses and I have
only just found myself in a position te
pay my obligation.' "
The fruit picker put a hand te his
brew meditatively and left upon its
jnjjst surface a smudge of peach stain.
TItcre must be some mlstuke some
where. ' he said. "Perhaps there are
two llebert .Tencf.es. That's probably it.
There must be two Rebert Joneses."
'Hut don't you knew whether there
w.ro.t.we llbert Jerefcs in your clns-.,
silly?" nsked the sirl. She had be
come very well acquainted with the
impecunious Orten graduate nnd dared
te call him silly If she chose.
Further explanation wns unneces
sary, for net far off came the sound
of the voice of Tem Granger. Helen's
brother. "Say, Helen." said Tem com-
lng In QUICK Strlllee. "hprn'e cnn.l e...,

"Why, bless my eyes Lawrenee

"Lawrenee Carter?" echoed Helen
weakly, and she In turn laid a droop

port. '
"I was just going te tell veu "

bondholder just referred te. "Rut Tem
