HERRIGK PLEADS FOR WORLD PEACE Ambassador to France Urges Ontlawry of War PRAISES U. §. DOUGHBOYS Calls Upon This Country to Approve Kellogg-Briand Pact Nothwith- standing Criticism Against Multl- lateral Treaty Involved. Clevelenad, Nov. 13 M — With refreshed memory of the horrors of the World war which ended a decade ago, Myron T. Herrick, Unit. ed States ambassador to France, to- day appealed for a permanent peace based upon the outlawry of war and imparted to this nation the duty of leadership in declaring for such a principle, Before an Armistice Day gather- ing in Public Auditorium, Ambassa- dor Herrick discussed the trend of world events in the last 10 years and singled out the problem of establish- ing world peace as one of the fore- most that has arisen in that period. Urges Pact's Approval He pointed with hope to the Bri- and-Kellogg pact for outlawing war and called upon the United States to approve {t, notwithstanding :ny criticlsm that might be directed against the multi-lateral treaty by those who believe that treaties only can be enforced when backed up by instruments of war. With fitting tribute to the valor displayed by American doughboys during the war, Ambassador Herr'ck pictured the position into which this nation came as one of nathral lea- dership—a premier place among m nations of the world. “The United States has not ¥ into wentth wnd- }t other country's humiliatien; , wealth 18 not bullt upon any “inere improvement,” said the speaker, “this record which gives us a deep sense of satisfaction and pride is cur priceless heritage.” WREATH LAID AT BASE OF WORLD WAR SHAFT Armistice Day Exercises Held at Walnut Hill Park ‘While church chimes played & solemn accompaniment, members of the American Legion placed & wreath at the base of the Soldiers’ Memorial in Walnut Hill Park at 11 o’'clock this morning, and stood with bowed heads while clergymen led in prayer. It was the annual Armistice Day observance of Eddy-Glover Post of the Leglon, and it attracted several hundrcd men, women and children to the park. The legionnaires, num- bering about 100, marched from their home on Washington street, through the court of honor and to the memorial shaft, led by the Legion drum corps attired in their colorful uniforms of red and white, topped by nickel helmets. Maurice Pease, who is to be the next commander of Eddy-Glover Post. was master of cercmonies and the wreath was placed by Nathan C. Avety, the present commander. Rev. Raymond N. Gilman, pastor of Stanley Memorial church, led the invocation, uttering a prayer that world peace will be realized and a hope that the passing of years will not cause the world to forget the men maimed in the war, the widows and children of those who passed on.

Caldwell, a tentative juror in the perjury trial of Robert W. Stewart, chairman of the board of the Stan- dard Oil company of Indiana, told Justice Jennings Bailey in Dlistrict ot Columbia supreme court today that he was approached yesterday by & man who asked him whether he would “hold out” in the case. Caldwell said the man, had given the name of “McGinnis” and when asked for detalls of the meeting said, “I got rid of him.” He, described McGinnis as about 21 years old of light complexion and wearing a grey suit. District Attorney George A.

Justice Balley asked the 24 other talesmen collectively whether they had been approached, but none an- swered. The incident developed early in the selection by Justice Balley of & jury to try Stewart on a perjury in-| dictment of three counts based on testimony by him before the senate | public lands committee during the Continental Trading company phase of the Teapot Dome investigation.

The world celebrated the clos- ing of a great war, but on the other hand it looked like the opening of a still greater war by the millions of radio set owners who tried vainly but without success to get their fav- orate stations. Reams of paper were used and many a pencil blunted in an effort to mark the log sheets with the new position of the dials on radio sets, but all in vain. Many who expect- ed to give the day up to listening to interesting addresses and musical programs commemorating the anni- versary, finally gave up and sacri- ficed the rest of the day trying to lo- cate stations, All in all, the new plan of the commission looked like a failure from the very beginning and unless something drastic takes place, the radio fan will continue to marvel at the whistlings, screechings' and the like, which were in abundance.

From the contents of these vaults 2nd books police hope to learn some of the secrets of the gambler's life und possibly even the secret of his death. District Attorney Banton ordered the police guard, after L. Gainsberg, attorney for Rothstein's mother and other relatives who will contest the will, had passed on to him informa- tion that there might be attempts to remove the gambler's effects. Gainsberg and Mrs. Esther Roth- etein, the mother, conferred with Banton for half an hour. Gains berg asked the district attorney to! subpoena Assemblyman Maurice Cantor, Samuel Brown aend Wil- llam Wellman, named in the will as executors and principal bene- ficlaries, to question them concern- ing validity of the will, which the gambler signed with a cross on his Police Inspector John F. Cough- lin broke the silence with which police have covered their actlvities to say that only three men were be- ing sought, one of whom he inferred fired the fatal shot in Room 349 in the Park Central hotel a week ago | last night. Denyipg the popularly held theory that Rothstein was lured to the ho- tel room and killed because he welched op debts contracted in a stud poker, high spade game last September, Coughlin said that the gambler's death was not plotted but was the result of a sudden quarrel. Geoxge McManus, Rothstein's friend, and “Tough Willie” McCabe were two of those sought, Coughlin ! said, but he did not reveal the name not say which, pulled the gun from the hand of the killer just after Rothstein was shot and threw it through the screen of the hotel win- dow into the street where it was found. “He had plenty of merve,” said the inspector admiringly. The gun has been traced from the manu- facturer in Hartford to a jobber in a western city and the identity of the purchaser may be known soon, Coughlin said.

Stanford University, Call,, Nov. 12 (M—Final orders have been received from Washington by the command- ing officer of the Battleship Mary- land to take Herbert Hoover to South America, salling from e southern California port not earlier than next Monday. The latest word here today was that the president-elect would board the ship at San Pedro, the port for Los Angeles, on November 20, sail- ing the same day, and arriving at Balboa at the Paclfic entrance to the Panama canal, about five days later. Shi After the inspection of the canal the ship will continue on to the first port of call in South America, which is yet to be determined. Maryland, one of the largest and newest of the navy's battleships, and regarded as an extraordinarily steady craft in rough weather was placed in dry- dock today at Hunters' island in 8an Francisco Bay, to be conditioned for the voyage which will take her as far south as Valparaiso, Chili. Hull Painted After her hull has been cleaned and painted and some repairs made to minor damages she suffered at San Pedro recently when she was sideswiped by a foreign steamer, the Mayflower will sail for the southern port to refuel and there await the president-elect - and his party, who will go from Palo Alto to 8an Pedro by rail. Admiral's Sulte During the voyage to Chile Mr. Hoover will occupy the admiral's suite, located in the extreme stern of the ship under the quarterdeck. This suite is a sumptuous one, con- sisting of a large reception room, a dining room, a bed room and & pri- vate bath with a separate small sit- ting room. These quarters will be equipped with all the necessary fa- cllities for the president-elect to carry on the great volume of work he must do on the voyage.

Parollo was hurled clear of the au- tomobile while his companion was found in the wreckage. They were taken to the Meriden hospital by Chris Powers, manager of the inn, and John McIneney of 87 Beaver street, this city.

The authorities stated that their condition was not critical. H. A. Rowley of 646 North street, Pittsfield, Mass., whose car was fol- loving the local auto, extricated Motto from the wreckage with the ald of Powers and Mclnerney. He stated that the local machine passed his car and in doing so, forced him to the side of the road. Parillo was unconscious when taken to the hospital and until an early hour this morning had not re- gained consciousness. 1°atto was al- 80 unconscious when taken to the institution but revived a short time tafter he was admitted to the hos- pital, After the car left the road it over- turned then landed upright on a side of the hill.

Alderson Says. That the spirit of militarism is making headway in the United States, and that its foundation 1is composed of lies, misrepresentations, and shackled minds, were warnings uttered by Rev. W. H. Alderson in | his sermon on “Militarism’ at Trini- ty M. E. church Sunday morning. ‘The spirit of militarism, he said, had its climax during the World War, when millions of people were made to believe that their enemies in war were barbarians and prac- ticed barbarianism. None of the stories had ever been substantiated in fact, the minister declareds No children mutilated by the enemy had ever been located in Belgium, he gaid, and he personally investigated a story that men had been crucified, but without success. “I saw the barn where the al- leged atrocity was sald to have taken place,” the minister assert- ed, “and after making diligent in- quiry in the neighborhood all I could locate was people who had ‘heard’ about the crucifixion but not one person who had seen it.” | Hate Manufactared | Such stories, the minister lald,} were told in order to engender hate against the enemy. “It is very hard to get a man to point a high-powered rifle at another man—a rifle with sufficient power | to send a bullet through nine men standing behind one another—and pull the trigger. The military sys-| tem must have it that the man's mind must be poisoned with suffi- cient lies to cause him a harbor hate against the other man before he pulls the trigger.” The system of manufacturing hate | was practiced on both sides in the (Continued on Page 18) General Booth Passes A Restless Night London, Nov. 12 #—General Wu- | liam Bramwell Booth, head of the Salvation Army, passed a restleas night.

Public Mass Meeting in This City Resolves Into Movement to Outlaw Armed Strife. A memorial calling for the adop- tion of the Kellogg multilateral treaty for renouncing war as an in- strument of national policy was adopted and signed by 800 persons last night at the Stanley Arena as New Britain celebrated the tenth anniversary of Armistice Day by do- ing honor to those who had given their lives in past wars and by lend- ing the welght of its influence to the movement to prevent repetition of the need of such® sacrifice. This memorial was introduced and its adoption moved by Rev. Theodore A. Greene, pastor of the First Congre- gational church, was accepted by a rising vote, and will be forwarded to Washington, D. C., as a recommen- dation to the president and senate. Text of Memorial ‘The memorial is worded as fol- lows: “We the undersigned citizens of the United States, profoundly be- lieve that our government should co-operate to the fullest extent with the other nations of the world in taking effective steps toward those of force in the settlement of disputes between nations. “We therefore heartily rejoice that the pact of Paris renouncing war was signed on August 27, 1928, by the United States and 14 other na- | tions and that invitations were ex- tended to 49 additional nations to become signatories. In giving our| enthusiastic endorsement to this multilateral anti-war treaty we de- | clare our belief: “1. That war shall be renounced and never again be resorted to by civilized nations as the means fer settling disputes, enforcing national claims or secking national objectives. *2. That war should be made a crime by specific provision of inter- national law. *“3. That the settlement of every threatening dispute, whatever its nature, should never be sought ex- cept by pacific means. “4. That cven regarding disputes which the nations involved may not be ready to submit to arbitration or judicial settlement, they shall never- theless pledge themselves not to re- sort to war. “5. That solemn engagements pledging the good faith of the na- tions in these vital matters are es- | sential to the development of the spirit of mutual confidence, which must precede a general movement for thorough-going disarmament. “We therefore respectfully express to President Coolidge and the senate our earnest hope and desire that the multilateral treaty for renouncing war as an instrument of national policy, now before the nations, may be promptly ratified.” ‘The service was of a community and patriotic nature and was held (Continued on Page Five) the | substitution of peaceful methods for | FRANGE NEARS END INRECONSTRUCTION Labor Chmgm Whole Aspect of Northern Villages 00000 HOMES REBULT Flooded Coal Mines Restored and Produce Half Million More Tons Monthly Than Before War Was Declarcd. Paris, Nov. 12 (®—Ten years after the close of the World war France is approaching the end of its labor of reconstruction in the dev- astated regions. Aspect Changed That labor has changed the whole aspect of northern France, model villages, many of them built through the generosity of American and Dutch philanthropists and societies have sprung from the ruins of ple- turcsque and rambling old world towns. Neat rows of cement and brick houses stretch along the streets that show little traces of war's devastation. Altogether nearly 700,002 der farm buildings have been rebuilt; thousands of factories and industrial establishments have been equipped {with machinery and are producing at better than the pre-war rate. Flooded coal mines in the Nord and Pas De Calais departments have been restored and are producing & half million tons more each month |than they did before war was de- clared. The huge work has cost in the neighborhood of three and a half billion dollars. Another half billlon remains to be spent and the task of reconstruction, it is expected, will be accomplished in another two years. Costiy One The human aspect of reconstruc- tion has also been a costly one.

They were faced with hours of waiting as the wintry wind whirled their cockle shells of boats through the water and they watched the ship in which they had but a few hours before been &0 luxuriously housed sink below the waves, about: 300 miles from Hampton Roads. Destroyer on Way Early reports that the Japanese. isteamer Ohio Maru was standing by were definitely contradicted by later advices and it seemed probable that: the coast guard destroyer Davis, due at the scene at five o'clock this aft-’ ernoon, would be the first to arrive, - By that time it was feared the lit-, tle boats might be scattered and that approaching darkness would seriously hamper the work of res- cue. S80S at 10 A. M, First word of the distress of the Vestris came in an 8 O 8. call shortly after 10 o'clock this morn- ing and at once a dozen steamers and numerous government dyaft turned from their paths in a race to the rescue, The wireless of the Vestris continued brief messages un. til 1:25 this afternoon, at which time the radio operator announced that he would be able to send mo more and was therefore joining the ngers and crew who had al. ey, taken to the 4&_.’ ‘ Then From that time on there ‘was af-'"" lence, and no more information was possible until one of the rescue boats should reach the scene. The messages received < om the Vestris told of the great danger and described the ship before the pas- sengers left her as lying on her side with the decks awash, but nothing was sald as to the cause of her die- tress. Apparently there had been no collision, as no other ship was mentioned, and the most widely held theory was that, tossed by waves still running from a week-end storm, the Vestris had shifted cargo to such extent that the ship had been twisted sideways until the seas ran into her. Left New York Saturday ‘The Vestris left New York last Saturday with a general carge of 6,000 tons and a consignment of mail, in addition to her passengers. She was bound for Barbadoes and South American ports. Although details of her predica- ment were lacking, it was assumed that she ran into the severe gales that swept the north Atlantic coast on Saturday night, and it was thought that her cargo might have shifted. At 12:45 p. m. the signals comlnt‘ from the Vestris were not so strong, indicating that the radio operator, was using his auxiliary set. The only signals he was sending out were such as would enable on-rush- ing ships to determine his direction.
