2 HOLLNOT FAVORED BY ANTI-SALOON Surprise Gansed by His Rating of “Fair” Boston, Sept. 1 UM—Something of a political sensation was caused here today when it became known that the Massachusetts Anti-S8aloon league in its “Information regard- ing candidates” had clamified the record ofW@ohn C. Hull, speaker of the house of representatives, as only “Fair” while three other seek- ers after the republican nomination for leutenant-governorship were called “dry.” Jrecaguised Spokesman Hulf for years had been the rec- ognized ~spokesman for the leaghe in the legislature and that body was reputed to have been largely re- sponsible for his decision to seek the lieutenant-governorship. Last year when the league was bitterly opposing a bill then before the legislature which would allow a state-wide referendum on the prohibition question and the roll call after a bitter debate showed a mar- £in of one vote In favor of passage, Hull intervened to cause a tie and the defeat of the measure, The league at that time com- ‘mendsa the speaker., At this year's session, however, Hull was accused of faillure to defend William M. For- grave, league superintendent, who was under fire in connection with allegedly false charges against va- rious members of the legislature. No Interference ‘The speaker did not interfere and the house passed censure on For- grave. In political circles the action of the league in classing Hull's long record as only “fair’” was seen as a retaliation for his attitude then. Others familiar with the situation were inclined to believe that the breach between Hull and the league might have resulted from his ap- pointment of a “wet” majority on the important committee on legal affairs which handled much of the legislation in which the league was interested. “Dry” Candidates Candidates classed as “dry” by the league were Charles L. Burrill of Boston, Gen. John H. Sherburne of Brookline and State Treasurer William 8. Youngman. Four other candidates were unclassified by rea- son of absence of record. They were George A. Bacon, Springfield; Pehr G. Holmes, Worcester; Robert M. Leach, Taunton, and Wyecliffe C. Maushall, Watertown. FLASHES OF LIFE: JACKIE COOGAN'S ONE DESIRE IS TO FLY IN PLANE Bolzano, Italy — The.

Paris, Sept. 7.—(P—Great im- portance is attached in France to the conversation at Geneva yesterday be. tween Aristide Briand, foreign min- ister, and Chancellor Mueller, of Germany. The conversation is look- ed upon as the atart of prolonged negotiations in which Great Britain. Belgium und Italy must take part as allies of France. These negotiations are to settle two vital questions, the evacuation of the Rhineland and fixing of the final terms of the war indemnities to be pjd by Germany. The French official mind asso- clates these with the debt which this country owes fo the United Statem The view is that Washington and Paris agréed upon the principle of capacity to pay when they entered upon the Mellon-Berenger agree- ment under which the origi French debt ‘was funded at $4, 000 000 in principal and interest. " is pointed out that France's capacity 1o pay is partly determined by the sums which she is to receive from Germany. Germany in turn has indicated that her capacity to pay indemnities is partly dependent upop a free hand in the Rbjneland. Kellogg Always Has Treaty in His Sight Aboard the 8. 8.
