CHICAGO, November 20.—Time forced the State's hand today and a| battery of prosecutors, denfed thefr last | effort to delay the event, placed Frank | Foster on trial for his life as the al-| leged murderer of Alfred “Jake” Lingle, Tribune crime reporter. Nearly six months had intervened since the revefberation of a single re- volver shot in the crowded Illinois Central pedestrian subway under Michigan boulevard startled the Nation with the climatic assassination of a newspaper reporter. Lingle was later found to have had connections with gangsters as well as with the police. Refuses to Accept Bail. For five months Foster had lingered in the county jail, denied freedom, while the State prayed for postpone- ments and went on gatheting evidence. Failure to bring him to justice foday would have meant automatic discharge, and a last-minute attempt to grant the gunman liberty on bail in exchange for another continuance was vetoed by _defegse attorneys. The serial numbers on the smub- nosed weapon found by Lingle's bod; weré the State’s first index to the tra of the assassin. Through gun dealers its purchase was traced to Foster, who was later captured in California, in- dicted. despite his protest that he had long since disposed of the telltale re- volver, and brought back for trial. In the intervening weeks, the prose- cutors had indicated Foster would be charged with being an acceseory to the murder and posséssing guilty knowledge. but James McShane, assistant State's attorney, informed the court as the trial opened that the State wotld Erov! Foster himself fired the fatal bullef Félt in City Hall McShane's examination of venirémen as to theit attitude toward the death penalty was interrupted and the trial deferréd unil Monday when a prospéc- tive juror, John 8, Durante, said he had been a few feét from the tunnel when Lingle was slain. He insisted, however, that he had not seen the killer and told the court he wanted to serve on the jury. The defense immediately asked adjourn- ment for the week énd. The killing of Lingle, who for years had “covered” the city hall as a re- porter, and was a personal friefid of many high officers of the police and other departments, had repercussions in City Hall upheavals that have not yet ended. It was followed shortly by the resignation under fire of Willlam F _Ruseell, police commissioner, and John Stege, his chief of detectives, both friends of Lingle's, who are still virtual retirement. The financial dealings between Lingle and Russell, who had joint broker ac- counts, brought investigation and only this week a special ordered convened in January to inquire into the conduct of the police depart- ment. .

Announcement of the Scottish strike came close on the heels of a ful assertion by Emmanuel Shinwell, the secretary for mines, that the danger of a national strike had been averted as a result of continuing negotiations between owners and union representa- tives.

PARIS, Novémber 29.—In the lobbiés of the Chamber of Députiés tonight the political dopesters were saying that Premier Tardieu will hold onto *his job despite the assaults on his internal fi- | nancial policies. He is understood to take the position that his cabinet as a whole is unaf- fected by the incidents of the past few weeks in which Briand, his foreign min- ister, was subjectéd to bitter eriticism, hnd Peret, his minister of justice, was forced out under fire as a result of the Oustric Bank failure. Personal Factor Seen. The cabinet resignations, Tardieu is said to believe, were personal decisions coneerning the ministers alone, and he has decided to fight the opposition t6 will | the last ditch rather than turn in his resignation and make way for a new cabinet.

BY FREDERIC WILLIAM WILR. Frank Billings Kellogg, former Seo- retary of State, has Been awarded the Nobel peace prize for 1929, but his old associates ih Washington, both at the State Department and in the Senate, declare he is entitled to the all-time prise for diplomatic persistence and de- termination. His negotiation of the genetal pact for the renunciation ef war, to which 64 of the world's nations are now parties, was marked by an in- tensive drive said to be without parallel in the history of American intercourse with foreign governments. During the last year and a half of Kellogg's Secre- taryship of Btate—from December, 1927, to July, 1929—the pact was practically his sole preoccupation. To see it be- come the law of the world was not only his ambition, it became his obsession. Both in the United States and abroad Kellcgg encountered general indiffer- ence as the first obstacle he had to overcome. ~Skepticism existed on all hands. The £ vetary of State was beset by counseis of despair in Wash- ington and in various European capi- tals. From here, there and everywhere Kellogg would be told of the insur- mountable cbjections to the idea of re- nouncing war as an instrument of na- tional policy. The burden of the sof dinned into his ears was that it couldn be done. Insisted on Broader Pact. The earlies} snag into which Kell . Briand's proposal that the be pact and insisted upon a multi-lateral treaty to which as many powers #s pose sible should be parties. M. Briand's views commanded deep in Washe ington, because it was the French for= elgn minister who really fathered the whole anti-war project in June, 1927. France put before the State Department & draft of a “pact of perpetual friend- $hip betweén France and the United Btates.” Kellogg cotirteously but firmly rejected anything of this sort, savoring, as it did, of a dual alliance between t"!.I'Aers t)wu cvtm}tr:: lC!ur objections were ely set fol in Kellogg's famous note of December 28, 1.27?" The French government lost no time in assenting to Kellogg's demand for a multi-lateral pact. Then ensued from Washington a long series of diplomatic | cxchanges with the governments of Francc, Great Britain, Germany, Italy, Japan, Canada, Belgium, Australia, the Irish Pree State, India, South Africa, Poland, New Zealand and Csecho- slovakia, the 14 countries which, with the United States, were the signatories of the pact as finally sealed at Paris on August 27, 1928. Before that con- summation Secretary Kellogg was in virtually uninterrupted correspondence with all these powers. He had an; but smooth sailing. All were agreed principle with what was projected. But nearly every country had ideas of its own as to what should or should not be incorporated in the pact. Kell ::’u:ld',u “l:e wemtltlg:l, that hl: c:{ preven agreement from bein lfim d&:nn ;“"i enuseus) and erzm of reatened it of vitality. The Secrétary of sufl unalterable plan was to make the pact cuous for brevity and stmplicity. Sought Senate Support. ‘While he was fencing with the foreign ministers of other countries, Kell ) Was keeping in closest fouch with arbiters of Relations Committee. Senator Borah, its chaifman, and Senator Swanson, its ranking Democratic member, were con- stant visitors to the State Department, 4s was also Senator Walsh of Montana, another Deémocratic thember of the committee. Kellogg ado) the pro- m o6f assuring himself of the com- mittee’s nugpvm in_every major move he made abroad. The result was that whén he went to Paris for the signature ong | of the pact, it was in shape that assuréed its everitual ratification the Senate, éven though that body, after threaten- ing to tack on reservations, finally in- amd ,upen attaching only “interpreta- ons.” Secretary Kellogg's next activity, after successfully ne&onnung for signature of the treaty by the 15 principal contract- ing parties, was to secure the “adher- énce” of 49 other states. This, too, proved a tedious process, but it was tackled and carried through with the same dogged perseverance that marked Kellogg's earlier diplomacy. The staf an who has just won the Nobel prize does not believe, and has never believed, that the Kellogg-Briand act means the end of war. l‘ul he is nvinced that it “is a most impressive manifestation of the spiritual nature of man” and an irretrievable step forward in the direction of settling international disputés exclusively by peaceful means.
