NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, SATURDAY, JULY 16, 1927, —_————————————— BRITISH HOLDING HEY AT GENEVA Parley Gan Get Nowhere Until They Chiange Geneva, Switzerland, July 16 ) —The tripartite naval conference can get nowhere, said a Japanese delegate to the correspondent of the Associated Press today, until the Bri delegation accepts as a basis of discussion a figure for the total tonnage of cruisers and de- stroyers which will offer a reason- b chance for successful negotia- it he Japanese spokesman added that his delegation was agreed with the Americans in this position, as they believed that reasonable total tonnage figures are an essential condition - for pourparlers. He ex- plained further that. details, like the sizes of ships and guns, should be \iscussed afterwards. . The Japanese delegation further wnnounced that it was adhering to its estimate of 315,000 tons of cruisers and destroyers combined for Japan. This would give Japan roughly 200,000 tons of cruisers, it was explained. b The spokesman added that pri- vate meetings of the delegates were continuing, and the Japanese be- lieved that the chances of the con- ference being successful were about even. He denied the current re- port that the Japanese are threat- ening to leave Geneva. In view of the unchanged situation and the lack of progress, all the plenipotentiaries have aBandoned the plan of leaving Geneva for over Sunday. They are remaining within call of one another. MYSTERIOUS DEATH H. K. Rising, Prominent Boston Lawyer, Found Dead in River— Suicide is Coroner’s Ruling. Boston, July 16 (A—DMystery sur- rounding the finding of the body of Hawley K. Rising, of Newton, member of a prominent Boston law firm persisted today despite a medi- cal examiner's verdict of suicide by drowning, Rising's associates declared they knew of no reason why he should have taken his life although they recalled that he breakdown when he was 21 and had undergone a serious operation a tew y ago. They were inclined . to believe he might have become affected by the extreme heat. Rising’s body, fully clothed and with $34 and several legal papers in the pockets of the suit was found in the Charles river yesterday by police who investigated after dis covering a handoned autdmobile by the roadside. The attorne was a Springficld and received his educa- Boston University. Two ago he married Miss Caroline Ayer, daughter of the Rev. J. Cul- len Ayer of Philadelphia, who at present is with her father at his ummer place at Randolph, N. H. Dublin Officials Are Afraid of Agitation Dublin, July 16 (P—The city com- missioners have refused an applica- | tion from the Fianna Fail, Eamon De Valera's party, for the use of Dublin’s City hall or the Mansion House for the lying-in-state cere- mony for the Countess Markievicz, who dicd yesterday morning. IFol- lowing this refusal, the body of the countess was removed last evening to St. Andrew’s church, row. Government supporters claim that the Fianna Fail's application was made in the hope of counteracting the wave of sympathy for the Free State government after the assas- \ation of Kevin O'Higgins, vice- ident of the I'ree State council.

This was by way of a denial of the report that he was negotiating with British fliers to pilot his plane. “They say I am keeping Drouhin walting for his contract,” continued Mr. Levine. “We already have called a ‘tentative contract.’ Drou- hin was to bring in another one drawn up by his lawyer.. When it arrives we will sign it, it it s all right, and that will settle it, but it wont be for $150,000. There are too many aviators on the market to Jjustify that kind of price.” Mr. Levine said it would take a month to put his plane, the Colum- bia, in shape, and then It would be a question of the weather. He add- ed that at the first available moment the Columbia would take the air for New York with Drouhin holding the broomstick. MILITANT WOMEN “WOULD PAY MEN Mlimony Under Same Terms Given Approval Washington, July 16 (UP)—Ali- | mony for husbands? Certainly, un- der conditions in which wives are now granted alimony, say the mili- tant feminists of the national wom- an's party. A man recently was granted ali- mony in California. A judge in Chi- cago refused a husband alimony with his divorce, and an Ohio hus- band is reported seeking alimony. “We favor removing all discrimin- ation between sexes,” Mary Gert- rude Fendall, in charge of woman's party headquarters here, told the United Press today. However, there is little chance that the feminists will make any campaign for alimony for husbands. There are too many other discrimin- ations against women for them to devote time to this subject just now, Miss IPendall said. The organization's declaration of ‘prm(‘ipl(‘s does not directly mention | alimony. “The husband shall no longer ob- tain divorce more easily than the wife,” it says, “and the wife shall have the right to obtain divorce on the same ground as the husband.” | Delegates of the party yesterday carried their case directly to Presi- dent Coolidge in the South Dakota black hills. They asfled his support for the Curtis - Anthony constitutional amendment, which would remove at | one stroke all between the sexes. | Whipper Is Sentenced To Year in Chain Gang Toccoa, Ga., July 18 (A—W.

Dr. Edmund Von Mach probably was Germany’'s most active defender in the United States during and after |the World War. He was one of the | prime movers in a projected peace {conference to have been held in ‘Washington, April 2, 1917, but which failed to materialize. Dr. Von Mach was born in fert, Pomerania, Germany, in and came to this country in after serving two years in the man army. He was graduated from Harvard university in 1895 and later received both his master's degree and Ph. D. from that institution. He was in- structor in fine arts at Harvard from 1899 to 1902 and instructor in the | history of art at Wellesley from 1899 jto 1902. He later was lecturer on art at Vassar college and Bradford academy. From the outbreak of the World ‘War he became an active worker in Germany's cause and was the au- | thor of numerous pamphlets which | were widely distributed. He also de- livered many addresses in which he assailed President Wilson’s policies, supported Irish malcontents and de- | tended Germany. In 1916 he started a campalgn to send milk to infants in Germany, whom he declared were starving but a request to Secretary of Navy Dan- fels that a naval vessel be sent to Germany with milk was refused. His activities ceased with entrance of the United States into the war, but after its close he charged in a pamphlet called “The Honor of the Rhine” that French colonial troops were being fostered upon the Ger- man residents of occupied territor: During the last years he practiced law in New York, he maintained a bhome in New York and a farm in Westbrooksville, Me. He is survived by his widow, Mary Ware formerly of North Attleboro, NEW YORK READY " FOR B WELCOVE Ticker Tape and Conletti Show- ers Are Assured 1870 1891 Mass.
