The investigatlon is sald to have revealed no basis for the Senator's charges. On the contrary, the authorities state, 1t showed tha lated graves in local cemeter serupulously kept up b although they are visited by Ameri- cans only once a year, on Memorial day. The American Graves Registration Service, chavged with the uplkeep o the grest national cemeterles. denies catezorically any desecration of graves, which are guarded daily by former service men. CARAWAY EXPLAINS Desecration of Graves Second-Hand Knowledge. ator Caraway of Arkansas, in 8 canlegram last night to the Paris yow. of the American Legion, denied personal knowledge of the desecration of the graves of Am W dead in France. Ihe Senator. who in a pronounce- ment after recent trip abroad said such inseriptions as “To hell with America” had been written on the white crosses that mark the graves, cabled that the “'siatement made by me rested upon no personal informa- tion of mine." I was careful to make it plain thut I had not been in that part of France,” he adde Senator Caraway «uoted Senator David A. Reed. of Pennsylvania, who ie a member of the American Battle Monuments Commission, as having told of the desecration of the fhonu- ments at a _meeiing of the Senate military affairs committee last Spring. “The suhstance of this testimony was published at the time” Senator Caraway eontinued, “and has never heen contradicted so far T know. ‘The statement with elaborations was made 0 me at the time by Senator Reed. “Also I am in receipt of letters from many people substantiating the state- ment T have made with reference to the attitude of France. Among them was a letter from a gentleman in Bos- ton criticizing me, saying he had seen such inscriptions, but thought that they had been written by drunken Americans. Of course, with that ex- planation, if it satisfles him and oth- ers, I have no quarrel.” charge of the Deseration | £l As reported 1 \ C...

The French spokesman admitted that great progress has been made during the year toward givihg na- tions a sense of security through the adoption of the Locarno pact and various regional treaties of amity and arbitration, but he insisted there is much yet to-be done to make all na- tons so assured of their security that » really dragtic general disarmament plan could be adopted. Replying to the Norwegian proposa} for outlawing specific implements of warfare, such as submarines and tanks, M. Boncour said: “Why is a submarine obnoxious and a battleship not? The battleship has no peace time use.” The French spokesman saw no fea- sible check on chemical warfare be- cause useful peace time Tactories could he changed overnight. to pro- duce lethal gases for wars. “The disarmament conference will be useful if it convenes in time, but useless, if it meets too late” de- clared Louis de Brouckers of Belgium, supporting the French argument. ‘The council’'s POWERS’ APPROVAL matters are referred plans for a disarma- ment conference, decided on the sug- gestion of the French members to question the secretary general of the League of Nations regarding the pos- sible speed with which the council could be summoned In case of war or a threat of war.

The draft of the protocol hetween the United States and Court members will specify that acceptance of the American reservations can be de- nounced by a two-thirds majorit should they prove incompatible w the best interests of the Court of the League at some future time.
