GHLDS IS OUSTED FROM CAFE CHAN Founder and Family Lose Control by 60 Per Cent Vote of Shares. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, March 8.—The name “Childs” on a country-wide chain of res- taurants was little more than a tra mark today. William Childs, its founder, and his family were out of control of the company William lds went down fighting. but was stopped at every turn by his opponents, who voted proxies represent- | ing 60 per cent of the company's 411,- 000 shares of stock. | From the platform where he presided over the annual stockholders’ meetings | yesterday as chalrman of the board of | directors, Childs at last conceded vic- | tory to the faction headed by William A. Barber, former attorney general of South Carolina, and in a voice choked with emotion announced he was through. “Thi ny.” he said, “is the ¢ of my efforts.

Then, after conceding the Barber fac- tion's majority, Childs sought to arrange a compromise through the appointment of a neutral board. This was defeated when Joseph F.

SENATE MUST PASS ONROOT'SFORMULA | Ratification of U. S. Entry in| World Court Necessary, Members Think. STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, Senator Walsh regards the Root formula as a substitute for reservation V, which was adopted by the Senate three years ago when adherence to the Court was voted. Some of the countrics concerned failed to approve this reser- vation. Reservation V stipulated that the Court should not render advisory opinion on any subject in which the United States has or claims an interest. The suggested redraft of article IV pro- vides similar safeguards. Dy the Associated Press. | If the Root formula designed to clear | the way for the adherence of the United | States to the World Court is accepted, the question of America’s adhesion will probably be fought out in the Senate. | | All members of the Senate who have | publicly expressed an opinion declared | that Senate ratification seems to be| necessary, even if the suggestion to re- | draft article IV of the 1926 protocol is agreed to by the countries conccrned. enators Walsh of Montana and Swan- | son of Virginia, both Democrats and | | both _supporters’ of this country's ad- | herence to the Court, have declared | that the Root formula was satisfactory, but they have also declared that they believed Senate ratification necessary. 1t is regarded as certain, if the ques- 1p in the Senate, that there vigorous fight made against by ave to adhesioh 1sh indicated matter might be ence | been consistently oppr Chairman Borah of the Senate for- eign relations committee has been a foe of American ‘entry into the Court, and while he has not made his present attitude public in detail, it is known (able to render advisory opinions over | the opposition of the United States.
