At a session of the Pan-Amer- ican conference peace committee in the late afternoon, Carlos Saa- vedra Lamas, Argentine minister of foreign affairs, intended to confront the governments repre- sented at the conference with the | fact that ample documents exist | to handle disputes without adding a single pact—if these were rati- fied by all American governments. Several of the delegates to the conference were working to obtain complete adherence to these. The existing treaties include the Briand- Kellogg pact, the Gondra conciliation treaty formu- lated at Santiago in 1923; Wash- ington concilation convention of 1929; Washington arbitration convention of 1929 and the Saa- vedra Lamas anti-war pact. i Verbal Spats Between Defend- ant and Prosecutors Sti- mulate Interest | Smash-Up Occurs on Highway i \ No. 10 as Victims Were Returning Home TELLS OF WALKER ASSAULT ‘Not a Love Tap’ Says Bureau Member of Wallop on Jaw By Colleague Joseph Dorson, 17-year-old student of the Sterling consolidated school, died at a local hospital at 1:50 o'clock Friday afternoon from injuries suf- fered when a sedan which he was driv- ing, used as a school bus, collided with @ two-ton truck in a sleet storm near Sterling Thursday afternoon and was demolished.
