HENRY OUTLINES |G, oo e VIEWS OF FRANCE First Secretary Tells U. S. in Radio Address “Charity Begins at Home.” Believing its wartime sacrifices en- title it to “create and prosper.” France 3s willing and unashamed to apply the principle “Charity ns at home” in fts efforts to secure that prosperity, Jules Henry, first secretary of the| h5.ch embassy, declared in an address over radio station WMAL and the Columbia Broadcasting System network last night. Mr.’glenry's nddress was a feature of the “Conclave of Nations” program, ‘Wwhich was presented in honor of France, and he spoke on behalf of Paul Claudel, the French Ambassador. Senator Jo- seph E. Ransdell of Louisiana, a State noted for its large percentage of French descendants, Introduced the speaker. Mr. Henry paid tribute to the part Frenchmen played in the building of the United States, mentioning particu- Jarly the French-Canadians, who, he declared. now are migrating _rapidly from Eastern Canada to New nlll‘nd.‘. Music Is Presented. { A musical program of the works of French composers was presented under | direction of Channon Collinge from Co- | Jumbia’s New York studios. The speak- ers appeared before microphones in ‘Washington. H “Now that we have mostly wiped out | the traces of ruins,” sald Mr. Henry.l “we want to create and prosper.” The sense of the program of former Premier “Fardieu, he said, was “Charity begins at home, * * * which will very likely be followed by his successor. “For the first time since the end of the war we find ourselves in what I may call a comfortable .position, comparable only to our great eras of pre-war pros- perity. I think such a prosperity is well deserved, because it has been dearly ‘bought, and is being maintained through financial burdens greater than those of any other country. Littls Unemployment. “There is no unemployment in France today, but that problem was cruelly solved by the loss of one Frenchman to every 28 persons. The Prench is modernized because it was ruined. “In our financial position lies one of the greatest guarantees for the peace of Continental Europe. Votedin Kentucky Governor’s Demand for Curb on ‘“Octopus” System Answered. By the Asseciated Press. v . FRANKFORT, Ky, March 5.—The Kentucky Senate yesterday passed by vote of 27 to 11 the House bill levying a graduated tax on the gross sales of re- tail stores, and the measure now goes to Gov. Flem D. Sampson. He urged in his annual message legis- lation to curb the “octopus” of the chain . and provision of this measure bit directly at chains, as retail stores pay the higher rates of taxation, W. H. Davies, Louisville, declared in debate, however, that chain store com- panies could incorporate their stores separately and so escape the higher rates, with the result that only the large department stores will be heavily hit. The proceeds of the tax are to go to the charitable and penal institutions and toward l;uldflkm of the State's floating debt, of the measure were changed after three Federal judges at Indianapolis held unconstitutional an Indiana act directed at chain stores. —— German loans on the French market is one factor which should not be disre- garded. “Improvements all along that line will allow us to pursue our policy of reducing armaments further at the same time that our national security is in- creased. Already our land forces have been decreased by 36 per cent, com- per cent. There is no reason why, if at the London Conference the French is favorably taken into con- sideration, there should not be an agree- ment which would permit important re- ductions of the present figures. People of all nations today are to vast armaments. If they were not, we should have to despair of ecivilization. The French, who fought too many wars, are perhaps more attached to peace than others.” owned by one concern are grouped and | Dep: other countries. and the probability o!! pared with 1913, and our navy by 28 | THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D.

Crosby to the office of District Commissioner, members of the Columbia Park Citizens' Association last night refused to indorse the selection and condemned the election of any military officer to civil posts in Wash- ington. A resolution commending the Police artment and condemning as useless the continued criticism of the depaft- ment was defeated. It was contended that there was no reason for commen- “dation at this time. Following defeat of this resolution, its supporters introduced a motion favoring a salary increase for police and firemen. This motion also met opposition, but was finally passed, as it was said larger salaries might improve police personnel, Adequate street lighting was requested for Emerson street between Third and Fifth street, Hamilton street between Fifth street and Arkansas avenue and the intersection of Illinois avenue and Ninth and Ingraham streets.
