OPIUM DEBATE 1§ WITHOUT RESULT Géneva Gon!erenoa Stil Far From Decision Ly The Assoclated Prems. Geneva, Feb, 3.—A lengthy ses- slon today of the joint commission of the two oplum conferences falled to result in any agreement on the ‘prohl»m of suppression of oplum #moking in the Far BEast—the prin- cipal sticking point in the long- drawn-out conferences over = the oplum evil which had been in pro- #ress here almost continuously since lust November. On motion of Aguero Betancourt, of Cuba, a sub-committee was wup- " pointed to make a last attempt to find ground for a compromise be- tween the conflicting views of the United States and those of Great Britaln and some of the other Euro- pean powers, The comnittee consists of repre- sentatives of the United States, Great Britain, France, Japan and Finland, with Dr. Herluf Zahle, of Denmark, president of the interna- tionul oplum conference, as observer, Ropresentative Stephen G. Porter, of Pennsylvania, who wants the pow- ers to begin the suppression of | opium smoking immediately and abolish it entirely within 15 years, read a statement to the effect that the plan which would make the suppression conditional on the re- duction of the growth of oplum in the producing countries was not feasible, He insisted that the imposed upon the nations by the | Hague convention could not be! transformed into contingent obliga- | tions, The United States, Porter rald, was suffering sbriously from leakage in the distribution of oplum in the Far' East. and he asserted that the only remedy posscssed by the United States is to insist on the definite suppression of the importa- | tion of gpium into the Far Eastern | countries’ for smoking purposes. Viscount Cecil, head of the Brit- | ish delegation, stuck to the position the British have held all along. He nid definite suppression could only come when smuggling ceased to be a serlous obstacle to governmental «fforts to put a stop to the practice. Mr, Sugimura of Japan revealed during the debate that Mr. Porter 1 private conservations had agreed on a waiting period of three years Tefore beginning to apply the smok- ing restrictions to give Chi; time 10 control her production. his of- for was not accepted by the Euro- pean powers who want an impartial commission to decide when the growth of the plant had been so re- duced as to cause a cessation of the smuggling danger, WEALTHY MAN GETS LONG PRISON TERM Sentenced to 5 to 10 Years for Assaulting Woman obligations Mays Landing, N. J, Feb, 3.—| Anthony N. Bullock, wealthy Wild- ! wood realty broker, convicted last week of making criminal assault on Mrs. Mary Newman of Philadelphia, was sentenced to serve from five to ten years at hard labor in the state & prison by Judge Willlam H.

Mary daughter, who was indicted and | tried with her father but acquitted by the jury, was not in the court room when sentence was imposed. The attack on Mrs, Newman took Ball was place in the Ritz Carlton hotel here ||§ after she had been engaged as house- | Xeeper for the father and daughter. Bullock denied the charge and his | attorneys claimed that he was the victim of a blackmailing plot.

Mrs. Selmi, secured a verdict of $60,000 damages after a civil act. Playground Proposéd At Washington School Commissioner Bernard G.
