SENATOR TOWNSEND DEFENDS NEWBERRY | tery, Michigan Senator's Colleague Takes Floor To Explain Inside Facts in Dispute With Ford. ‘Washington, Jan. 7—Senator Town- send took the floor in the senate in a defense of his colleague from Michi- gan, Senator Newberry, the title to whose seat is contested by Henry Ford, his democratic opponent. First referring to what he charac- terized as the spirit of animosity and hatred which had marked discussion of the Newberry case, Senator Town- send said it was necessary, in order to | arrive at a clear understanding of the facts, for senators to know and ap- preciate the condition under which the Michigan senatorial primary was conducted in 1918. “We were than in the midst of war,” he declared, “there was the spirit of loyalty as against disloyalty. The demand for defense of the coun- try as against pacifism was very pro- nounced in Michigan elsewhere in the United States. Ir. I"ord had been greatly adver- tised for y s, in 1916 and even he- fore that,” Senator Townsend contin- |ned, “through whole pages of news- | paper advertising, in opposing war | |and preparation for war. e spent |thousand¥ and thousands of dollars in 1916 in advertising the election of President Wilson on the theory that he had kept us out of war.

L'Helaire, which is generally credited with rep- resepting Premicr Briand, says. “Mr. Lloyd George has spoken. He leads the way and the representatives of the allies follow as a subject fol- lows a hypnotist. As he had announc- ed he subordinated the question of reparations to that of the reconstruc- [ tion of Europe so that Germany can find in Russia the money she owes u. [ It 1s a well known proceeding. It is | that followed by all financial adven- turers. When the company is un- able to meet its obligations a new one | is formed in which the capital of the old one is drowned.” The newspaper concludes: “The plot is well designed. We are put to sleep so Lloyd George can strip us at his leisure. The Pan-German concert is always up to strength; if we give up the Rhine, Alsace Lorraine will be re- quired of us tomorrow in the name of pacificism.” The FKigaro organ of conservative opinion remarks: The first results at Cannes are frankly bad. Lloyd George wins eas- ily all along the line. A great finan- cial and economic conference is to be called at Turin or Genoa, where the French premier may exchange views on the reconstruction of Kurope with lienine and Dr. Wirth. Meanwhile the inhabitants pf our so-called lib- erated regions continue to live in their huts.” SEEK RECRUITS HERE Coast Artillery Service at Fort Wright Needs 300 Men—Recruiting Officers in City.

The air of pessimism noticeable immediately preceding the opening of the council largely dissipated by the suc- cessful results of the first day's ses- sion. The Belgian delegation has an- nounced that it will insist on Bel- gium’'s priority to 00,000,000 gold marks of the German reparations. This is regarded an important ob- stacle to the British plan which the Irench are disposed to accept in part. Oppose Moratorium, Both the Belgians and the are opposed to a moratorium for Ger- many but the French are inclined to agree to a reduction in the cash pay- ments, provided the difference is made up by deliveries of reparations in kind. The British stick to their pro- posal to reduce the total payment due this vear from 2,000,000,000 gold marks on condition that materials be delivered to the value of 2,000,000,000 gold marks at this rate it will take five years to pay off priority claimed Belgians and France will have to ™ that long before receiving any cash at all.

A tre- mendous impetus it is generally con- ceded was given the conference by vesterday's results. " Many of the delegates gttribute the quick results of yesterday's moel_mg to the example set by the \Vashvmmon armament conference. They point m:n that Mr. Lloyd George's economic program was presented and accepted with the same suddenness and ‘spcod as the opening proposa's of Secre- tary of State Hiughes at the armament hering. 4 . *he question of reparations will oc- cupy most the time of the conference today and the delegates are hopeful that a decision will be reached on this question also at the end of one day’s consideration of the subject. The experts this afternoon began discus on as to how the first billion marks by Germany last August, should be divided.

T.—Greenwich vil- lage famous in story and song as the abiding place of art, has a rival as New York's Quartier Latin. The presumptuous aspirant-— thus characterized by those who love the Greenwich Village section of Manhat- tan—is the “heights,” a section of Brooklyn. About it still clings the odor of sanctity, recalling days of its glory, when it was the center of the fashionable society of Gotham's trans- pontine siste But the villagers' scorn pauperizes expression when they arve forced to mention it. Whe demands Greenwich Village —than which there is no more fluent and continuous a demander—can the poet woo and muse and, the painter find inspiration, but just off Washing- ton Square? Where can one's cmo- tional complexes find expression hut in the narrow streets and byways still haunted by the shade of O. Henary? Brooklyn retorts effectively, bheing gifted rhesorically, but Greenwich Viilage claims the benefit of tradition in all its ramifcations. Meanwhile the Brooklyn colony is ing strong. Of the six judges selected to choose the prize winners for costumes at the yearly art models ball, four reside on the “heights.” PRAISES DR.

Mayor Hylan praised the surgeon for his “errand of mercy” and re- buked physicians and others who had attacked his motives and methods.

Policeman Kumm alse fired one shot, but the gun becams clogged and the stranger made good his escape. Wilhelm, while German emperoe, had 73 castles and other residences.
