NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 17, 1929 M—_——_ COLLISIONS WERE PLENTIFUL TUESDAY Slippery Weather Keeps Police Busy Reporting Them Officer Thomas Tierney reported a ¢collision on Franklin Square at 6:20 last night between a truck owned by Max Zucker of 516 Main street end driven by Thomas Milikian of 142 Tremont street, and a touring car owned and driven by George Roy of 685 East Main street. The truck ‘Was going north and the touring car was going south, and Roy said he thought the truck was going to cut in front of his car, s0 he pulled to the left and the truck struck the right front wheel of his car, dam- aging it, and also damaged the bumper and right front fender. Of- ficer Tierney found no cause for po- lice action. Officer John W.

The bus stopped at Lincoln street. The left front fender of Fanion's car was damaged, and the left rear fender and left side of the other car were damaged. Officer I.. E. Harper reported no cause for police action. TURN DOWN SOVIET PROGRAM ON ARMS (Continued from First Page) tee should mect in Geneva on June 15. Russian Defends Plan General Alexander Langovov, Rus- sian military expert, in defending and explaining his country's propos- als, pleaded for a maximum of 10,- 000 tons displacement for warships as against 35,000 tons fixed by the ‘Washington conference. He charged that the 10,000 ton cruisers being constructed now when they take the sea will have a displacement of 14,- 000 tons. The Boviet proposals he explained #s having four points: First:—Reduction instead of mere limitation of armaments. Sccond:—Extensive reduction of the armaments of larger countries but lesser reductions for smaller na- tions. ‘Third:—Destruction of offensive armaments while purely defensive armaments are left untouched. Fourth:—Consolldation of peace- ful positions of the nations. He called attention to the limit ©of 10,000 tons set for German war- ships by the allies and said there action proved that size was as large as was needed for defense, and small enough to restrain owners from ag- gressive warfare. Flaw in Warship Treaty General Langovov declared the method of limitation of tonnage elaborated by the Russlan govern- ment would present derogations which he insisted the system fixed by the Washington treaty permitted. He alleged that when the 10,000-ton eruisers took to sea they really dis- placed 14,000 tons. “In limiting the calibre of guns of warships, renouncing airplane combat and prolonging the life of warships, we weaken the destructive force of naval warfare and diminish the budgets of navies,” he said. *“In proposing the immediate rcrap- ping of airplane-carriers and the gradual replacement of enormous warships by ships of 10,000 tons, we suggest that this be achleved by 1942, the date by which certain of the powers must replace their old #hips under the terms of the Wash- ington treaty.” Referring to submarines, General Langovov explained that the abolish- ment of undersea vessels was not proposed until total disarmament was fcasible, but the Russian plan wanted them reduced to defensive proportions. Japan in Opposition N. Sato of Japan, the first speak- er, said he wanted to comment on the Soviet plan submitted by a state “with which Japan had friendly re- lations” but wanted to recall in the most friendly manner that under the league covenant countries were only called upon to reduce their arma- ments to & minimum compatible with their national security. He opposed the Soviet project on the ground that it was too mathe- matical and falled to give sufficient attention to the special positions of various countries, or the necessities ©of their defense growing out of spe- cial geographical situations. The Japanese delegate also opposed the project because it provided for ac- tual reductions, whereas this ques. tion of figures should be left to the forthcoming international confer- ence. He declared the preparatory commission was merely empowered to build the technical structure for & conference and appealed to M. Lit- vinoff not to insist upon fixing the figures of armaments, belleving this would hasten an accord. Germany States Views Germany through Count Von Bernstorff approved the fundamental ideas of the Boviet plan, but agreed with the Japanese that the question of figures should be left to the later International conference. He urged giving closer examination to the Bov- iet principles because they pointed the way to genuine reductions, elim- inated inequalities now existing fn the armaments of the powers by levelling armamente, lessened the possibilities of agression and protect- d civilian populations by prohibiti the dropping of bombs from the air. J. Valdes-Mendeville of Chile said he looked upon the Soviet draft pro- ject as a surgical remedy which needed the presence of skilled doc- tors. He opposed referring the plan to the technical committee and ex- pressed belief that the commission should follow its own draft treaty. France Rejects § France, through Count Massigli, ewise rejected the Soviet scheme as impracticable becaus eit was too mathematical. He insisted that the necessities of defense of theé differ- ent countries varled in accordance with geographical and other condi- tions. He urged adhering to the pre- paratory commission’s draft treaty as offering the best hope of progress and said he was convinced the Soviet plan was putting the cart before the horse in seeking to concentrate at this time on figures of actual reduc- tions, instead of striving to achieve that agreement on methods of limi- tation which would justify convoking an international conference.

REOPEN DRIVE 0N BOY BODTRLAGHS Shoe-Shine Stand Owners Pe- tition Council for Relief | For a third time in as many years, owners of boothlacking establish- ments have appealed to the com- | mon council to pass ordinances pro- Libiting the shining of shoes on the | streets. The names of the Landis Shoe Shop, Domonic Bosco, Frank Cuse- lee, Domonick Cianflone, Philip Camp, Joseph Carazza and Angelo| Gagliardi, appeal on the following petition: | “We, the owners of established | shoe shine rlors and voters of the city of New Britain, hereby once | more petition the honorable lu\\"‘ making body of this city to puss| #ome law with immediate action on | your part, instead of leaving the| matter ‘closed in a closet’, as has been the case in past ycars, to pro- hibit boys from soliciting on street corners. “Regardless of weather, we are obliged to pay various bills such as electric lights, rent, taxes, etc. Street corner bootblacks give us unfair competition, furthermore they spoil our merchants' window displays, after time and money have been spent on them. In most cases th shine a customer's shoes while leans on some show window or | | building. ‘ “It would not only benefit us but also the boys themselves and, gentle- men, you should judge this as the | case of your own son. “We know that child labor should not belong in our civilization, but | | that children should be in school or at play, not working on the street corners where they often meet bad assoclates, get the habit of lounging around pool rooms and undesirable places, and unless of strong chara ter, are likely to be led astray. We all know that there is no future to a street bootblack's job. Do your part and gulde them as if they were your sons.” Connecalfi Continues Quest of U. S. S.
