By Cuable to The Star and Chicago Daily News. Copyright, 192 PARIS, France. July 30.—How France tried determinedly to bring about ef- fective general disarmament at the time of the Paris peace conference and how the French delegates abandoned their efforts only after a personal intervention on behalf of the American point of view by Eleutherics Venliselos, is told in the current number of I'Illustra- tion; by Andre Tardieu. The French point of view, according to M. Tardieu, was that if disarmament was to be anything but dupery in which nations of good faith would fall victims to nations of bad faith there must first be international commissions of control for the purpose of ascertaining If the terms of the disarmament were not being violated; and, second, an international military organization to enforce the will of humanity and civilization upon the violators. Authorizsed by Clemenceau. Leon Bourgeois was authorized by Premier Clemenceau to do everything possible to obtain the insertion of clauses to this effect in the covenant of the league of nations. Opposition was immediately forthcoming from both the United States and Great Brit- ain. On February 11, 1919, President Wuson declared, utel trol of its armaments. We Ameri- cang could not consent because of our Constitution.” Mr. Wilson was_immediately sup- Dnr‘;efl by Lord Robert Cecil, who said: “There would be strong opposition in Great Britain to any control re- garding the number of British sol- diers kept under arms. 1 do.not be- lieve that thls formula' can be adopted.” The French, however, persisted. On March 24, President Wilson said: “Our constant {dea has 'been to avold the conception of a super- state and in these conditions it would seem to be difficult to operate cer- tain superyisions within the &ssociat- ed nations.” M. Venizelos' .intervention was in the form of an urgent call.upon M. Tardieu, to whom he said: “I call your attention to the grave political problem which is at the bot- tom of this judicial debate. Mr. Wil. son must meet congressional opposi- tion, which is striving-to .check him by every possible means. He feels willing, but on condition that the way be made smooth for him. If his ad international armaments to reproach him with hav- ing sacnificed national sovereignty the ‘treaty runs the risk of not being ratified’in Washington. France, there- fore, by her insistence, is embarrass- ing the government of the United es. comments M. Tardieu, “the opposition to effective measures for the reduction of armaments came from the United States and Great Britain.” M. Tardieu remarks further that the {republican party after being in power {scarcely six months “is reopening a {question, the settlement of which |caused President Wilson to retreat {and is placing itself on the same ;ground on which it accused Mr. Wil ison of having so rashly ventured. For he who says limitation says control and from control to guaranty is a treacherous slope. BURY-HERO TOMORROW. Body of Lieut. Strawn Brought Home From France. Funeral services for Lleut.

By the Assoclated Press. e GREENSBORO, N. C. July 30— Judge ‘James E. Boyd, ' In federal court, today made permanent the in- junctions issued against J. W. Balley, collector of internal revenue for North Carolina, restraining the col- lector from selling property to satis- fy assessments made against twenty- nine persons in the western district by the commissioner of internal reve- nue and the commissioner. of prohi- bition for alleged violations of the Volstead prohibition act. Assessments made possible by the Volstead act, Judge Boyd ruled, are not to be summarily executed by the internal revenue department on the unsupported word of enforcement agents, without the knowledge of the accused person, but must be assessed by a court of competent jurisdiction after that court has heard the case and found the defendant guilty of the offense with which he is charged. “The rights of American citizens must be protected at all hazards,’ the opinion declares. “This protec- tion cannot be guaranteed if federal prohibition agents are allowed to in- dulge in flights of fancy, estimate the length of time a still has been in operation and forward reports to ashington that enable revenue agents to figure out penalties amounting to thousands of dollars against 2 man who sometimes has al- ready been acquited by the courts of the charge of manufacturing liquor. —_— POLICE_KEPT BUSY.

CHICAGO, July 30—Blocked from the lake shore along more than half its South Side, Chicago has started work to jump the Intervening rall- road tracks by ‘building a five-mile parkway out in the lake. This is to run from 12th street to §5th street, connecting downtown lake front improvement with Jackson Park, and adding the missing link of a forty-mile drive running llom rvuhln a stone’s throw of Lake Mich- gan. A start is being made this summer on the initial fil on the present shore line and on a necessary break water. It is hoped to complete the first part of the shore fill before the year runs out. This will eventually add a strip of land about 600 feel wide and five miles long beyond the railroad tracks, The made land will be converted into a park. The much larger task of construc- tion of a long, narrow park in the waters of the lake may be started next spring. It will be bullt about 1,800 feet from the present shore line. Its east side will give Chica- goans the uninterrupted view of the lake on the south that they have long wished for. Its side toward the city will inclose a long lagoon, fur- nishing an admirable course for re- gattas. It will be 600 feet wide.

Conslderation of the administration railroad debt funding bill is to be begun this week by Senate and House inter- state committees. Republican leaders hope that it may be passed by the House ahead of the tax revision bill and re- ported to the Senate before the pro- posed recess of Congress. They said they had been advised by Treasury of- ficials that such a schedule would meet the situation, without necessitating having Congress forego its vacation in September. 5 The tentative plan for disposing of the railroad legislation, leaders said yester- day, was based on expectitions of a long and stubborn fight in the Senate. Be- sides opposition of a group of senators to what they declare would be a loan of $500,000,000 to the railroads, questions of repealing the so-called six per cent raté guarantee of the carriers and re- storation of state rate-making powers to state commissions probably will be brought up as amendments to the fund- ng bill.

The statement is based on a com- pilation by the Bureau of Railway Isconomics. Charges on a suit of men s clothes from_ Baitimore to this city emount to 1% cents; on a pound of beef from Chicago to Washington, 1 cent; on a sack of flour form Minne- apolis. 4% cents; on an automobile tire from Akron, 156% cents; and on 8 dozen oranges from Lakeland, Florids, 6 cents.
