In the petition of Mrs. Pauline Ahl- quist for the removal of her brother, Private Frank Kordal of the United $tates army, from guardlan of his daughter, Helen, it was agreed to’ postpone the hearing until one week from today with the understanding that the case would he finally dispos- ed of at that time. The pgtition of Alex Kucynskas for the removal of his wife, Rose, as guardian of his daughters, Anna and Matilda, was started and adjourned so that attorneys for the plaintiff and defendant might prepare stipuintions that wlill settle the dispute. Kordal Still In Army In the Kordal case, Attorney Joseph G. Woods, counsel for the deitendant sald his client has not yet been dis- charged from the grmy, but expeects to be shortly and "should reach the city this week. The little girl in ques- tion is now living with Kordal's sis- ter, Mrs, Ahlquist, and she wishes the court to name her as guardian. Kor- dal will contest the action. The de- fendant was awarded custody of the child by the superior court following a divorce action several years ago. Accuses Wife of Neglect Through Attorney Freedman of Hartford, Kucynskas claimed that his wife, Rose, wham he sought to have removed as guardian of his two chil- dren, had locked them in a room and did not give them proper care after leaving his home aBout a month ago. They have been married seven years and live at 86 Rhodes street. Kucyns- kas, who works nights, came home one morning and found the family gone. He traced them to 70 Austin! etreet where the children were not liv- ing under proper conditions, he al- leged.

Parls, July 18.—The French foreign office indicated today that it expected to recelve on Friday the British communication on ‘the repa- rations problem. It his been pre- arranged by the French and British | foreign offices that the precise terms ' of the note shall be guarded with the greatest secrecy until the two govs crnments have reached an agreement' or have become convinced that they| cannot agree. It is not supposed in the highest political levels here that the note will} be such that it can be either ac«i cepted or refected as a whole. The British note, it is understood here, is neither being sent as a finality nor is it expected that it will| be received here as such. A meeting of the council of ambas+, sadors took place at the foreign ofleb today. The principal conversation before and after the meeting was with regard to the so-called crisis between England and France. Text Not Ready By The Assoclated Press.

Belglan Sulcmem Brusgels, July 18-—Belgian om:m eircles declare that the position of Belgium as regards reparations is dominated by the fact that up to theé end of 1922 Belglum had received 5,658,000,000 francs In reparation money and had expended 22,712,000,- 600 for restoration work. An additional sum of from 10,000,- 000,000 to 12,000,000,000 francs would be necessary for this work it was said, which would make the total advances by Belgium to Germany's account nearly 30,000,000,000 francs.
