Thought Significant Washington, Aug. 6 (UP) — Echoes of the Geneva arms confer- ence failure, official, unofficial and seml-official, continued here today. The navy department announced detalls of its plans for creation of a naval reserve on private American merchant vessels, whereby crews will be trained in naval maneuvers so they can man armed merchant ves- sels. This was considered signifi- cant, coming so closely after the Geneva collapse. The Army and Navy Journal de- clared in an editorial that the Unit- ed States did not intend to traverse the seas “only with the consent of Great Britain.” The Peoples’ Reconstruction league, on the other hand, hinted in a statement that lgrge American corporations had helped to make the conference a failure, asking “shall profiteers force another war'” While the naval reserve movement was authorized at the last congress, no funds were appropriated, and the announcement of plans now is linked up with the effort of Great Britain in the conference to fix a six-inch mini- mum limit on guns, which was in- terpreted as indicating her intention to equip merchant vessels with six- inch guns. The United States sought a limit of eight inch guns, which are too heéavy for merchant ships. The department has instructed naval district commandants to con- fer with owners and operators of American vessels to obtain their co- operation in organizing the new service. An effort will be made to establish it first on vessels operat- ing from New York and San Fran- cisco. Masters of crews will receive a course of instructions on naval tactics for their crews. “Boiled down to essentials,” the Army and Navy Journal editorial said “Great Britain has served no- tice she will never surrender the su- premacy of the seas and that she will not permit equal We call on the nation to direct congress to provide a navy which will make the United States dominant afloat as it would have been but for the Wash- ington conference.” The Peoples Reconstruction league said the “public announcement of the proposed cooperation” of the Dupont interests, United States Stecl and General Motors “followed the evident failure of the disarmament conference.” “They have a highly profitable community of interest in naval competition and in wars to follow,"” said the league.

WELFARE BUREAU T0 ACT IN ROMAINE CASE State Organization Notifies Probation Officer That Home Conditions Here Will Be Investigated. Sympathy for the family of Stan- ley Romaine of 15 Star street from whom the Connecticut Humane so- ciety has taken three children has grown so strong since the mother's two recent attempts to commit sui- cide through grief, that an addi- tional investigation has been ordered by the Connecticut Child Welfare bureau, according to information re- ceived today by Probation Officer Edward C. Connolly. The bureau, which is the organ- ization which conducts investigations will look into conditions at the home thoroughly with a view to acting upon Mr. Connolly’s suggestion that the children be returned. Upon completion of the investiga- tion, a report will be made to the county commissioners and upon their ruling, final disposition will be made of the case, The absence of "former Judge W. C. Hungerford from the city makes it impossible at this time to enlist his aid in an at- tempt to have the children returned ito their parents.

Ho stated however that he fully believes the investigation will be conducted from an ,honest, human sympathetic stanfipoint, rather than that of cold blooded theory, and that if it is found that conditions warrant it, the children may be returned. Sometimes, Mr. Schultz points qut, children are returned to homes on | probation. This may happen in the { Romaine case, although Mr. Schultz i did not commit himself. 0ld Law Holds Inn | For Theft of Auto | TLondoh, Aug. 6§ (®—In olden days when inps were remote and high- waymen were rampant it was not uncommon for the robbers and the |innkeepers to be in league, so laws were passed holding inn keepers re- and their goods.

The court, in very clear terms, held that the constitu- tional declaration of national own- ership might not be applied to lands upon which ‘positive acts’ had been performed prior to May 1, 1917, be- cause such applications would vio- late a guaranty of the constitution providing against that very thing. | For the most part, the properties involved, come under the ‘positive acts’ classification, and the supreme court has said that the oil compan- ies had vested rights in these prop- erties, not affected by national own- ership.
