This was not confirmed from other sources. NANKING, July 22 (®.—The Nationalist foreign office is re- ported to have sent another note to Soviet Russia reiterat- ing the desire of the Chinese government for settlement of the Chinese Eastern Railway dispute by peaceful negotiation. Secretary Stimson was advised today by Ambassador Claudel of France that he had been informed the Soviet, if possible, would abide by the Kellogg pact for the re- nunciation of War. . This word was brought to the State Department a few hours aft- er Chinese Minister Wu had in-| formed Secretary Stimson that 1t was the intention of his govern- ment to abide by the pact. Stimson was told by Claudel that Foreign Minister Briand of France had been informed by the Russian ambassador in Paris, on instructions from Moscow,- that the Soviet would abide by the Kel- . logg treaty. Secretary Stimson last Thursday took steps to call to the attention of the two powers their obligations under the pact. Minister Wu told Stimson the report- ed “selzure” of the Chinese Eastern Railway actually consisted of the dis- missal of the Russian employes. He also said he was hopeful that an amicable means of settlement of the dispute would be found. U. 8. INITIATIVE EXPECTED.

After a week end of rest and recrea- tion at his mountain retreat at the headwaters of the Rapidan River in Virginia, President Hoover was today absorbed principally in making prepara- tions for the ceremonial in the east room of the White House Wednesday afternoon when the Kellogg-Briand anti-war treaty will be formally pro- claimed to the world and will become effective. ‘The President today completed the drafting of the address for this historic occasfon and with that out of the way turned his attention to other details in- .cident ‘to the forthcoming event. It is underslood that his talk will be rela- “lvely brief and will be delivered im- mediately in advance of the reading of the proclamation of the treaty itself.

Sanders will meet the former President at the station. The White House an- nounced Mr, Coolidge will be a White House guest during his stay in Wash- ington, and it is thought likely that he will remain overnight. Frank B. Kellogg, former Secretary of State, whose name the anti-war treaty bears, and who arrived in Wash- ington yesterday, was today asked to the White House as a guest during his stay here, Mr. Coolidge and Mr. Kel- logg along with Senators Borah of Idaho, and Swanson of Virginia, chair- man and ranking Democrat, respectively of the Senate foreign relations com- mittee, will probably be the only in- dividuals present on this occasion, not directly identified with the present ad- ministration or with the various governments, who are signatories to the treaty.

He experienced no trouble in getting the plane away, he said. Since the voyage of Columbus, which statisticlans say would have consumed 69 days had he followea the path of present-day liners, the time . for the transatlantic passage has been reduced as man’s ingenuity ncreased.

PARIS, July 22.—Organization of Europe as a reglonal, continental entity under the aegis of the League of Na- tions and attempted solution as such of both political and economic problems is understood to be the project of For- elgn Minister Aristide Briand of France. At the League of Nations Assembly in September M. Briand proposes to ex- plain the broad outlines of his plan, which, however, does not embrace the ambitious idea of forming a nmew politi- cal institution with a parliament and a. president. His much-discussed idea of a “United States of Europe” will partake more of the nature of a political entente, with European states meeting at regular periods to study current questions of pressing interest. ‘Want Prosperous Europe. Numerous other statesmen, like Benes of Czechoslovakia, want to build up a prosperous Europe. Far from being di- rected against the United States, its role is concelved as benefiting America because it would open up bigger mar- kets for American goods.

Already Tackled Problem. The League has already tackled this problem, but more must be done before Europe reaches economic unity. M. Briand is naturally keen on the peace benefits to be derived from frequent con- sulations among European na! . He wishes to crown his idea of renunciation of war contained in the Kellogg pact and his peace efforts at Locarno and Geneva by constructing an organization within the framework of the League which will still further reduce the pos- sibilities of war in !:urofle The impression prevails in Paris that M.

Brown's ly was en to the Kaiser under- taking establishment in Laurel. The car in which the men were riding belongs to Willlam C. Jones of East Lansdale street, Baltimore.

Z‘:lre dog was thrown 25 feet from the Pole Cut in Two. Bergt. C. E. Duckworth of the Mary- land State Police Force, who investi- gated the accident, reported the car was seen to have gone through Laurel at a high speed about 2:30 this morn- ing. Speed and a slippery roadway are believed to have caused the acci- dent, Duckworth said. It was raining when the crash occurred. The tele- graph pole which the car struck was severed as if by a great knife. The accident today was one of sev eral in nearby Maryland over the week end in which District residents figured. A family of five, a small boy who was their guest, two cats and a dog all escaped injury this morning when the 2utomebile in which they were return- ing from Colonial Beach, Va. rolled over twice near Wayside, Va., two hours after they had left the resort. A Frank Newman, attached to the Dis~ trict of Columbia Fire Department, Truck No. 4; Mrs. Newman and their three children, Helen, Elizabeth and Frank Newman, jr. and Eddie Fink, a neighbor's child, who had been vacae tioning with them, were in the car. According to Mr. Newman, who was driving the car, they left Colonial Beach at 4 o'clock this morning and at 6 o'clock, when they were passing through Wayside, another automobile passed them. Almost instantly, New- man said, his car swerved and turned turtle, rolling over twice before coming to a stop on its side. It was raining at the time and the fireman saild he could not tell whether his machine had :;f:t hsise‘-tsw!p;d gy k::x; puusmg car, or er its wheel | d off the road shoulder. o “We weren't going much over 10 miles an _hour when it happened and then it was all so quick none of us knew just how it did occur,” Newman said today. “We were all in the car when it stopped rolling—my wife, our three children and little Eddie Fink, and the two cats and the dog—and not ione of us was hurt.” The only damage to the car was a slightly bent fender. The Newman party returned to Washington in the car under its own power. Other Car Did Not Stop. In the confusion following the accl- dent. Newman said he did not know whether the car which passed them at the moment they turned over stopped. Due to the semi-darkness and the rain he believes the other machine's occu- pants never knew of the accident. The Newmans live at 415 Randolph street.
