Lest the recent report that a body found at Dubuque, lowa, was be- lieved to be that of Anderson, lead to a general impression that he was dead, Rush D. Simmons, chief post office inspector, yesterday requested all postmasters to give the widest possible circulation to information that examination by Inspectors who know the fugitive disclosed that the report was erroneous. “All-Around Bandit.

DAYTON, Ohio, September 19 ().— A man who proclaimed himself George (Dutch) Anderson entered the Tippe- cange National Bank and ordered Mah- lon T. Staley, cashier, to open the vault yesterday afternoon, but the time lock had closed. He took an emergency change box containing $100, wired the cashier to a chair and left. The description . given by Staley tallies closely with that of “Dutch” Anderson and when shown a prison photograph of the bandit. Staley de- clared there was a close resemblance, except that the robber @id not wear Rlasses. = PRI ¥ i, B2 8 BRITONS APATHETIC OVER SAKLATVALA; CONFEREES SAILING (Continued from First Page.) last year received the Grasselll medal, presented by the American Section of the Soclety of Chemical Industry, for (his research work in rare metals and special steels.

BERLIN, September 19 (#).—Thirty merhbers and ex-members of the Ger- man Reichstag, including Speaker Paul Loebe, will take part in the twenty-third conference of the Inter- parliamentary Union, at Washington, beginning October 1.

The delegation includes $ members of the Democratic party, 8 Soclalists, 6 members of the German People party, 4 Centrists or Clericals, and 3 members of the Bavarian People's party.

GERMANY T0 JoIN N SECURITY PLAN Government Ignores Opposi- tion of Nationalists—Opti- mistic on Qutcome. cd Press SRLIN, September 19 indifference to possible an onism on the part of the atfonalist party to the German government's position on the proposed European security pact 1s reflected in Berlin official quarters, where it is stated definitely that the Luther-Stresemann government would participate in the coming con- ference of foreign ministers next month. It is believed the German delegation will consist of two mem- bers of the government, in addition to Foreign Minister Stresemann Germany Is Optimistic. The informal conversations on by the allied and German juridical | experts in London appear to have stimulated a conslderable feeling of optimism in German official quarters One of the difficulties of the situ tion, in the opinion of n'le: ers, 13 sugsested in the settiement to be reached over article XVI of the league covenant. Germany will argue that unless a definite modifica tion of this article is made, 1t should | not be forced submit to its ac- | ceptance for the obvious reason that a demand for the transit of foreign troops through German territory would constitute a casus belll politi cally, and in addition would harbor serfous economic menaces. Obligation Is Seen. Officlal opinion appears to ume that Russia would not fundamentally oppose Germany becoming a partn to a Rhineland pact if article XVI were eliminated, and that the spirit and letter of the Rapallo treaty sug gest no hindrance to the conclusion of a formal security pact. Neverthe- less the German government con- siders {tself obligated to give dune con- sideration to its relations to the Sovlet government, in so far as they are| liable to collide with agreements gwrd nto with her western neigh- rs. > That Germany will seek to bring about formal diseussion of other | issues than the security pact also is indicated in a cursory reference to the question of terminating the occu- pation of Cologne at the earliest pos- | sible date, and a demand for certain reforms in the present allied admin- istration of the occupied Rhineland.
