By the Associated Pre: PARIS, July 15.—Most of the poli- ticians and diplomats who remained in the capital over the hot week end that marked the national holiday seemed to be of the opinion that Premier Ray- mond Poincare will obtain ratification of the Mellon-Berenger accord on debt settlements without reservations in the Lower Chamber before Friday. Ratification without reservations by the Senate later is acknowledged even by the most bitter opponents of this method of wiping out the war debts of France to the United States. | The premier will not oppose the | Chamber voting reservations of budge- | tary orders, purely internal, after the text of an unreserved ratification is sent to Washington. He is prepared, however, to state the life of his govern- ment upon ‘ratification without reser- vations in text.” % M. Poincare will resume at 10 am. Tuesday his plea for ratification inte upted on Friday evening, after occupy ing for two days the speakers rostrum in_the Chamber. ! ‘The premier is reconciled to the fact | that the ratification debate has veered to essentially internal political motives. | He is relying upon his usual majority of from 30 to 40 votes which have al- ways been faithful to him when party distinctions have been clearly defined. Opinion is gaining ground that the government will support a separate bill drawn up by Deputy Daligne. This reads: “The Chamber, believing France will not be able to find the means necessary for the execution of the Mellon-Beren- ger and Churchill-Caillaux accords ex- cept in regular fulfilment of German obligations as expressed in the Young plan, solemnly declares that it is in | this spirit that it authorizes ratifica- tion of the said accords and invites the government to look to regular receipt by means of the international organisms instituted by the Young plan of Ger- man annuities destined by.the said plan for payment of out exterior debts.” | CLARKE BROTHERS FACE U.

NEW YORK, July 15.—The Federal | grand jury handed down two indict- | ments against James Rae Clarke, Hud- son Clarke, jr.; Philip Clarke and John P. Bouker, the partners of the defunct banking firm of Clarke Bros. One of the indictments charged con- spiracy to conceal assets in bankruptcy, and the other use of the mails to de- fraud. Both indictments contained con- spiracy counts. ‘The mail-fraud indictment, contain- ing 12 counts in all. superseding a mail- fraud bill returned by the grand jury last week, and set forth charges against the defendants in much greater detail. ‘The four were partners in Clarke Bros'. 80-year-old bank which failed recently with $4,000,000 to $5,000,000 shrinkable in assets and estimated losses to depositors of from 75 to 95 cents on the dolla HAMMOND TO BE FETED.

Waking Up Persons Asleep in Home as Flames Threaten to Destroy All Until Alarmed in Time to Flee. BY EUGENE R. BROWN, Mall Pilot for Piteairn Aviation, Inc., on Richmond-Atlanta Run, Written Exclusively for The Star and the North American Newspaper Alliance. Things exciting on the mail line? ‘I like the job, but I don't figure that because I live on excitement. You might say a lot of interesting things occur, though. Maybe the nearest to downright excitement I've had so far has been the . three times I've seen houses burning at night and nobody in sight on the ground. It makes you want to step right out of the ship and pound on doors and windows and yell warnings; fires always have excited me. Uses Motor as Fire Alarm. Of course, you can't step out of your ship, ‘The next best thing is to dive all over the place and blip your motor. You can make a motor into a good fire alarm. It will sing all up and down the scale if you jazz it in a dive.- If you do that a minute or two everybody in town will be up. That's what happened at Fountain Inn, 8. C., about 4 o'clock one morning last September. I was bound south for Atlanta out of Spartansburg, S. C. I had been up only a few minutes when I noticed a glow in the sky, and looking down I saw a big blaze three miles off. I thought it was probably a barn, but I couldn't resist taking a couple of minutes to cover the three miles to see. When I came down a little my heart went into my throat. It was a big house. ‘The way I cavorted around that place with my motor wide open would have waked up ghosts. In less time than it takes to tell a flock of people I circled around a while, EUGENE R. BROWN. came running out. They were in their nightclothes. I wasn't late, either. No Trick to Wake Them. Those people wrote in about that. There were 14 of thenl It wasn't any trick on my part to wake them, but I guess it did save their lives, and you get quite a kick out of that. Come to think of it, T guess the biggest thrill in this business is that you are always giving a service that means something. I mean the way business people are learning to depend on the air mail, and the way we are always rush- ing things around, like radium and X-ray plates that doctors are in a hurry for. A couple of other times I've been able to wake people in burning houses, and I get more excited doing that than anything else I know about. My folks live in Decatur, a suburb near Candler Field, Atlanta. When I take off on the northbound trip of an evening I pass over the house. Mother and my kid brother, Massey, and my dog, Togo, come out as I pass. Dog Knows His Motor. Massey has an old automobile spotlight rigged on the family radio bat- tery, and he blinks it at me. Togo knows it's me, and I belleve he does. I can hear him yelp if I shut the motor off a second. I blink my landing lights—they are like a car’s headlights— in answer. Massey says he's going to be a pilot. the game isn't so bad. (Copyright, 1929, by North American Newspaper Alliance.) T TG i A Most Opportune Clearance Of All Straw Hats—In This 1143 Conn.
