His views have beén reflected in the communications sent abroad. * Mr. Hoover three days ago made an address the significance of which was overlooked. Most of the spéech was not reported in the press. Mr. Hoover said Political Stability First. “The well-being of the continent is indeed a matter of concern to us. 'We have a desire to help, but before our strength can be employed toward ecomomic stability a foundation of political stability must first be ob- tained. Sconomic stability cannot be created in an atmosphere of alarms and threats of political actions and its possibilities of war. Economic strength has not yet been built on armies. “The Washington conference has eliminated the malign political forces between the great Eroup of mations 'with which we were directly involved, and it secured a limitation on arms in this group. It must be our wish that other great groups of nations, 'where we have less direct interest, should take up the same proeesses. 'Wé have no problem of land armies. 'These political difficulties in Europe 'which breed armament, with its train of economic Jeopardy, arise from causes in which we do not partici- pate. They do not affect us in their results. We find ourselves much torn between an earnest wish to be of service and a rightful desire to keep ourselves free from matters to which we are not a party and which we cannot remedy and participation in 'which would, nevertheless, undermine our strength, our influence and our abitity to render real service in the future. The Washington conference found some solution to excessive naval armament and the political cauges that gave rise to it. Hopes for Army Cut. “All America hopessthat the conti- ©f Europe can enter upon those steps which will lead to a reduction of Mo land armament and thus lay the foundations upon which economic recomstruction can be safely built. “The limitation of land armament and the mitigation of malign forces in‘ Burope would indeed be a com- panjon pier to the accomplishment in paval limitation at the Washington conference. 1 believe that Americ: out of her own interest, would join her economic strength to build the spam on these firm piers so vital for ecomomic progress. Without this foumdation, there is little for Ameri- ca {0 build upon: with this founda- tion, America will not fail to do her part.” Mr. Hoover's views carry added welght, since it was announced that he Would be a member of President Hapling’s commission to fund the alligd war debt. There Is every reason to MHalieve that Great Britain is in thoough accord with the policy of the|Tnited States and is endeavoring to persuade France to join in a con- ferefice which shall assure Europe agalnst military aggression by any of its component parts. Some time ago a proposal was made that hee, Belgium, Great Britain, and taly should sign a four-power pact similar to that signed at Washing- ton, but guaranteeing that all nations shomld come to the aid of the other in case of unprovoked aggression. It was, suggested also that Germany her#elf be included in the treaty, so that she would be pledged against undHrtaking offensive measures. i\ Would Promote Peace. The argument is being made in Sritish_quarters that such a treaty would be wholly in line with the ef- fortsiof the league of nations to pro- mote peace and would at the same time, constitute a x-egltcmfil ;mnde‘:; s ng supplementary to the leag oll‘.:zlons. While the league is try- ing to solve the question of land armament, a direct agreement be- tween the nations having the largest armies would, in the view of officials here, be a quicker way to achieve Tesuits. Prime_ Minister _ Lloyd George knows that unless Europe gives evi- dence, either through the league of nations or four-power pacts, of a genuine intent to put its own house in grder, America must remain in- diffggent to the pleas of T'urope for ecoffomic aid. Until Europe ceases spending money for the maintenance of drmies, America doesn't see why anyiassistance should be given her former allies in the matter of re- funding the allied war debt. The key' to the situation today, there- fore, is the secret conference between Prime Minister Lloyd George and Premier Poincare. (Copyright, 1922.) BAR PICKS COMMITTEE.

SW YORK, Febryary Dorothy Atwood, listed by the district attorney's-office as one of the lesser “domino club” stock pool, declared today she had run Mrs. Lillian N. Duke, divorced wife of James B. Duke, “tobacco king,” a close race for honors of “chief goat” in the broker’s operations. Instead of the $97,000 she was re- ported to have contributed to the pool with which Lindsay is alleged to have said he and George F. Baker, Thomay W. Lamont, James A. Stillman and a few other giants of Wall street were going to make a big “killing” in the street, she put in $225,000 in cash, about $50,000 in jewelry and nearly $1,000 in dogs, Mrs. Atwood said. The missing broker, she declared, carried off two of her pedigreed Mexi- can dogs, after he had got the last of her ready cash, representing that he had found good sales for them. He tried to borrow a third, she said. but her suspicions had been aroused, and she kept the dog. Raises Dogs for Living. Mrs. Atwood has earned her living since by raising pedigreed dogs— something that was just a hobby be- fore the suave Lindsay came into her life. Mrs. Atwood sald she had first met Lindsay through Mrs. Duke, who thought so well of him that she in- trusted more than $350,000 to him. “He was the most convineing man in the world,” she said. “He should have been a\writer. He could tell the most fabulods stories in a way that made one believe them. I never ques- tioned his honesty at first because of having met him through Mrs. Duke. He always acted very nice and talked big. Names of big men were always on_his lips. Finally, however, she began to sus- pect him because his grammar wasn't up to the Yale education he claimed, Mrs. Atwood said, and -she had a woman friend meet him, who imme- diately warned her that he was “no good “The next day my friend phoned me that she had seen Lindsay at the Astor Hotel with a woman who was wearing the diamond lavallier 1 had given him to invest in the ‘domino club’ pool,” she continued. *“I was about to go to the district attorney | vith my story at tha to jail I would never get anything. ‘Don’t kick a man when he is down he begged me, so I let the matter Atwood laughed at reports indsay was too cautious to ac- cept checks and that he always sisted on cash. “I have plenty of checks sindorsed by him,” she said.
