IRISH FREE STATER ENLIVENS ASSEMBLY Desmond Fltzgmld Talks Be- Torg League of Nations e TWITS BRITAIN AND FRANCE Security Through Arbitration Key- note of Well Recelved Speech— Talks on Process of Agreement Be- tween Nations, By The Asociated Press. Geneva, Sept. 13, — Security through arbjtration was the keynote of a speech with which Desmond Fitzgerald, of the Irish Free State cabinet today edlivened the last day of the-general discuasion held by the disarmament commission. of the league of nations assembly on the various propositions before it, The slim, youthful, red-haired Irish for- eign minister, enriching his remarks with dashes of typical Celtic spiei- ness faced the British delegation smiling in friendly fashion across the narrow table as he proceeded, and ‘when the speech was translated into French all the delegates joined .in expressions of keen enjoyment, Mr. Fitzgerald sald he had a bit of diffidence in speaking before. a commission of the league because his country was such a very young member of the world organization. Army Reduced “Last year, prjor to my country’s admission,” he sald, “I attended a session of the commission at which I was requested to make a statement with regard to our armament. I pointed out that we had raised an army of some 50,000; that an army of such dimensions had been created for a specific reason; .hat this rea- son had now ceased to exist and that therefore we were already begin- ning to demobilize.. Since then we have reduced our army to something less than 20,000, Mr, Fitzgerald sald he presumed that in the proposed disarmament conference all the great powers, with the possible exception of Russla, would be represented. Considers Insecurity “When it comes to doing business,” he continued, “I think I shall geton better if we consider insecurity rather than security. Instead of speaking of security and arbitration we might speak of security by ar- bitration. “There has heen great frankness here, I wonder if that frankness could be extended to a point when each government would say, ‘We maintain such or such armament be- causé we feel our duty to our people demands it as a protection against such & danger from such a govern- ment.’ Then arbitration could work out intelligently. “If weall stand for right nnd jus- tice,” he added, “and we are all will- ing to give up that which the con- science of the world thinks we have no right to hold, then we have noth- ing to fear. This would at least en- able us to judke each other's sinceri- ty."” The Trish minister's allusion to “Our old friend, France, and our pew friend, England,” delivered in the| face of the British delegation, pro- voked hearty applause. He was| congratulated by the delegates of | both these powers. At the conclusion of the discussion | the commission appointed a sub-| committee to prepare a draft recon- ciling and embodying the ideas de- veloped in the general discussion at the various sessions of the commis- sion for some project of security and sanctions as a preparation for the proposed Geneva conference on dis- armament, French Idea Works Out France's idea that general world security can be attained only if each member of the League of Natlons| will contribute what it can in the way of sanction against an agressor state seems to be working out at Geneva, The countries, led by England, are coming forward one after anothér and expressing willingness to give of what they have to the cause of peace—England her fleet, France and the other nations possessing large land and air forces the weight of their military strength, and the smaller countries which are weak in armaments the full measure of their financlal and econamic assistance. Just, how this general willingness | to contribute to the sanctions can be whipped into a general protocol, or convention is the problem now immediately before the league as- sembly. One problem relating to compulsory arbitration is already partly solved in that a sub-commit- tee of jurists has decided that it is entirely reasonable for the powers to sign the compulsory arbitration claims of the world court of justice and at the same time make reserva- | tions thereto.

Berlin, Sept. 13.—The authorita- tive statement issued to the Qerman press last evening on the question of Germany’s war guilt and her en- try into the league of nations has causéd a considerable ebullition in the columns of the Berlin press and there is talk of an early cabinet crisis. Last night's German ' statement declared emphatically that Germany could not enter the league of na- tions until the war guilt question was solved, It set forth that the question of Germany's admittance to the league was not raised by any foreign statesmen during the Lon- don conference, despite numerous opportunities, and it declared that before Germany's empty chair in the league was occupied the cove- nant must be altered more favor- ably toward Germany and she must | not be required to ask for an elec- tive seat but be allocated a per- manent one. The statement added these conditlons would be the basis of a coming cabinet discussion of the subject. The statement ema- nated from Foreign Minister Strese- mann. The newspapers supporting the parties of the right joyfully welcome Dr. Stresemann’s declaration that the question of responsibility for the war must be settled before Ger- many can enter the league, but the democratic and socialist journals reject the proposal. The socialist Vorwaerts, heading “The impending fall of ministers,” considers Dr. Strese- mann's remarks as denoting the beginning of a government crisis. It an official repudiation of Ger- many's war guilt is not sent to the allies very soon Dr. Stresemann and other members of the cabinet will resign, it declares, while in the contrary case Chancellor Marx will subse- No developments are possible un- the newspaper /BANKRUPTCY PETITIONS. | New Haven, Sept. 3.—Joseph | in the knitting | bankruptey Cesare Rantoro, shos dealer, 88, HELD FOR STEALING AUTO. 13.—Unable to | o New Haven, Sept. orney Whitaker in city court today 18, made enqugh ad- court in he automobile of a Bridgeport man. vietv cemetery. | HIGGINS' AUTO STOLEN v ' Harry J.
