BELGIUM WANTS TO FIGURE Paris, July 21 (By the A. P.)—The Belgian government has instructed Baron de Cartier de Marchienne, 'Belgian am- bassador to the United States, to present strongly ‘the reason why Belgium should participate in the conference on disarm- ament in Washington, according to Henr{ Puttmans, correspondent in Brussels of the Echo de~ Paris, today. M. Puttmans declares that the Bel- glan sensibilities have been somewhat {hurt by President Harding's phrase in | his call for the conference, the “princi- pal allied and associated powers” which | the Belgians consider reduce Belgium to a lower rank than that which the cor- respondent Belgium feels it has attain- ed by ‘its part in the war. ‘The Bel- glan interests in the Far East are des seribed as beipg of real fmportance, no- tably the Ka®Ping mines to the north- east of Tien-Tsin, the railways in China and ‘also- numlerous Belgian national bank enterprises. The Belgian government considers its national -dignity - engaged, M. Puttnmans asserts, especially it Holland is_invited to attend the conference. The Belgians consider. also that the question of dis- armament vitally concerns them as they now are-a part of the bloc of Western powers, HURLEY APPOINTED CHIEF OF STATE POLICE DEP'T Hartford, July 21—Robert T. Hurl of Hartford, captain of the state poli was appointed superintendent of the re- organized state police department of Con- necticut today by the state police com- mission. He will take office tomorrow, succeeding Supt. Thomas F. Egan, who has announced that he did mot. wish re- appointment. The state police commission elected Col. Ernest L. Isbell of New Haven as its president and Robbins B. Stoeckel, motor vehicle- commigsioner, was chosen secretary. Governor' Lake approved the appointment ‘of Captain Hurley as super- intendent. Captain Hurley later announced: the appointment of Alden L. McMurtry, who has been chief motor vehicle inspector of the state, as captain of the state police. 12 PERSONS DROWNED IN GULF WHILE BATHING Houston, Tex., July 21.—Twelve per- sons, mostly children, were drowned while bathing in the gulf near Palacios late today, according tp gwork received here tonight, { All are said to haye been delegates to the Baptist Young People’s Union con- vention at Palacios. Later reports received said that seven of the bodies had been recovered. A message just received in Houston states that fffeen bodies have been taken from the gulf and brought back to Pala- clos and that the dead will number twen- ty or more, The jexcursionists were in bathing and .were caught in a strong ugdertow and swept out into deep, water.

She was then badly down by the stern and as she started the final plunge the bow rose high out of the sea to disappear slowly. Thus the end came to a onee great ship of the German navy, which took an im- portant part with the German first battle squadron in the battle of Jutland and reached home safely after having struck a mine laid by the attacking British grand fleet. Naval men and many others of the thousands assembled on half a score of warcraft viewed th eend of the big ship almost in awe, but the army men, and particularly the aviatofs, were highly elated, many of them regarding this as proof of the claim of Brigadier General Mitchell, assistant chjef of the army air service, that the airship was making the battleship gbselete. INFORMAL EXCHANGE OF VIEWS WITH JAPAN Washington, July 21 (By the A. P)— Renewed confidence that Japan will consent to a_ broad discussion of far eastern problems as part of the disarm- amtent conference was evident in official circles here tonight after another infor- mal exchange of views between the Ja- paneso and American governments. During the day the Japanese ambas- sador, Baron Shidehara, called on See- retary Hughes and they are understood to have discussed the situation at length It was indicated afterward that the mu- tual exchange was regarded as helpful by both sides and that the conversations soon might. reach a stage making possi- ence on the subject. There was every evidence that .the American_government remained unshak- en in its belief that to definitely elimi- nate any subject from the scope of the conference beforchand, might prove a serfous barrler to the disarmament dis- cussion itself, On oha other hand, it was indicated that American officials had the no desire to formulate a list of questions that it thinks should .be cussed, and would be quite content if the Tokio government simply agreed to come into the conference with an open mind as to consideration of anything vital to isarmament agreement. in negotiations charge of the preliminary here have heard with much interest the suggestion that some of the troubles of the/conference might be obviated if such/guestions ac the dispo- tion of the Pacific Islind of Yap and the control of Shantung neninsula were set- tled before the delegates assembled. Al- though officla, eomment is lacking it is manifest that such a development would be highly pleasing to American officials an dthat some tteps may be taken to speed these questions toward solution. It is considersd entirely likely that to this end negotiations regarding Yap may be actively resumed. There already has been some diplomatic corresprndence on the subject, but thus far the negota- tions have been in-conclusive. In the case of Shantung, the indicated view of the state department -has been that any dispute over sovereignty -should be a_subject of negotiations between Japan and China. Revorts have reached here that Tok is ready to undertake such a negotiation and it would occasion o surprise if China ‘wers encouraged to take a similar- attitude. Ths view advanced in some Japanese quartérs’ that both Yap.and Shantung should be regarded as closed incidents outside the purview of the disarmament conference apparently has found little sipport here. It was indicated today that despite the suggestion of British dominion states- men_for a postponement of the confer- ence until next spring, officials here be- Ieved the plan to begin sessions by ear- 1y November womid find zeneral accept- ance. It Is realized. that some of the dominion premiers may be put to incon- ventence because their parliaments will be in sesslon curing the fall, and in some auarters it has been suggested that the date of the conference be adyanced to permit them to attend before the par- amentary sittings begin. There has been no indication that the question has been officially called to the attention of the state department, however, and the zeneral disposition is to attempt no de- finite decision for the present. Sl ey TO PRESENT SMOVIES OF DEMPSEY-CARPENTIER BOUT New York, July 2L.—Although motion pictures of prize fights are prohibited by federal statute fdom being shown in any state except that in Which the fight was held, F. C. Quimby announced today that a film reproduction of the recent Demp- sey-Carpentier contest would be shown in a local theatre on Saturday. Mr. Quimby's attorneys are said to have obtained from Attorney General Daugherty, a ruling that the Dempsey- Carpentier bout was a boxing match, not a prize fight, and therefore’ under the law pictures of it could be legally trans- potzed {rom one state to another for pub- lic exhibition., TUNLOADED FISH FEOM ' STRANDED SCHOONER Boston, July 21.—The crew of the Gloucester fishing schooner Fiora L. Oli- ver, heading to port to market their catch today, refused to let the grounding of their ship keen them out of their pay. They unloaded forty-seven big swordfish into dories, rowed four miles to the Fish pier and cashed in on their four wecks' trip while their. vessel pounded on the <hy re ex- | Tugs floated ‘the schooner later and towed her un the harbor with pumps working to keep her afioat. Dble 2 more forma* .liplomatic correspon'l-fl i | Bus l}nrpnratmn Is Sink GmSfim | Denied Inj 1unct|on Against Enforcement of Regu- lations of the Public Utili- ties Commission. New Haven, Conn., July -21.—The ap- plication of the New Haven-Derby 'Bus corporation for a temporary injunction to restrain the state of Connecticut, the city of New Haven and the town of West Haven from enforcing the regulations of the public utilities commission of Con- necticut in regard to jitney routes was denied tonight by Judge John E. Keeler of the superior court. The application was made in the su- perior court in Bridgeport last week by counsel for the jitney ‘bus corporation as a legal move to prevent the Police from carrying out the rulings of the public commission in barring jutney ul lities 'buses from many streets and highway: Judge Keeler's accision says in par The jitney law is attacked for uncon- stitutionality on various grounds. The first ground alleged is that the act provides no penalfy for breach of its pro- ons.” This claim does not go into the constitutionality of the act. The act provides that any person vio- lating any order, rule or regulation estab- lished in accordance with its provisions. or any provision heredf shall be fined or imprisoned or both. The words quoted clearly relate to the express provisions of the act. The. second ground alleges that the act grants special priivieges to certain class- es of persons and the applicants alleged the act deprives tho plaintift of the equal protection of the laws. j§ * There does not seem to be !n)“hin: in the specific provisions of the -statute which is obnoxious to these objections. It is provided that any person may oper- ate a jitney route where he is found to be a proper persen and route proposed is one of convenience and necessity. The determination of these. questions is left to_the public utilities commission. The fourth ground of objection says the legislation takes plaintiff's property without due process of law. Clearly no tangible property of the plaintiff is so taken. Yet it is true that in some cases a franchise or an established business is regarded as property and protected by the constitutional provision. This act takes away no franchise from plaintiffi— it never had any. The fifth objection alleged that by means of the operation of the act the plaintiff is deprived of the use of the highway for lawful purposes, while other persons are given privileges denied to it. This contention leaves out of account the fact that this sort of occupation is affect. ed by a public interest and where such is the case the legislative power is ample to control the occupation, The sixth ground of ‘dbjection sets “forth that the act confers upon the com- mission legislative and judicial powers. It by no means follows that the act is therefore obnoxious to any constitutional provision. The seventh and eighth objecti¥ns both go to the same point, that is, that the commission, insofar as it exercises the powers conferred by the statute, is vested with arbitrary power violative of consti- tutionat rizhts. The seventh and eighth grounds are not tenable. The ninth ground of objection states the claim of arbitrariness from a slight- iy different angle. The act provides for Detition, hearinz and granting the certifi- cate or refusal therec? and appeal from any decision by any party in interest. If the above comclusions are correct the act is a legitimate exercise of the police power by the gzeneral assembly with referenec to z business peculiarly affected by a public interest with ample povision by way of review to anyone concerned due prucess of law whereby his constitutional rights may be safe- guarded. GOVEENOR OF ILLI PRESENT NOIS To ARGUMENTS TODAY Springfield. IIL, July 21.—Counsel for Governor Small will yresent arguments to Judge E. S. Smith tomorrow that the governor as the state's chief executive need not submit to arrest for embezzie- ment or conspitacy to defraud the state, {as charged in indictments returned yes- {terday against him, Lieutenant Governor Fred E. Sterling and Vernon S. Curtis, Grant Park, Illinois, banker. State Attorney Mortimer, it is report- ed, will bs on hand to contend that the governor's position does not make him immune from arrest and that warrants issued azainst Smail should be served. Lieut, Gov. Sterlng was expected o appear in court tomorrow to give bonds unless his attorney attempt to show that he also may, on constitutional rights, resist arrest. Mr. Curtis’ bonds, reduced from one hundred thousand to fifty thousand dol- lars, were arraigned today. COURT RULING FAVORS DISTRICT ATTORNEY TUFTS Boston, July 21.—The attempt of At- torney General Allen to add to testimony in support of charges in which he -secks the removal of District Attorney Nathan A. Tufts evidence that certain cases were quashed improperly was defeated today by a ruling of the supreme court. The full bench ruled that it could not be held against Tufts as a cause for re- moval that Iris assistants were ineflicient or corrupt. All evidence of the disposi- tion of cases of which District Attorney Tufts was not shown to have knowledge aws adjudged incompetent. The attorney general said that in view of the decision the commonwealth would offer no more cases except those in which it could® be shown that Mr. Tufts was personally responsible for disposal. RUSSIA SEEKS INVITATION TO WASHINGTON CONFERENCE Stockholm, July 21 (By the A. P.)— M. Kergentzeff, chief of the delegation of Soviet Russia to Sweden today handed to Sheldon L. Crosby, the American charge d'affaires, a long note protesting against the failure to invite Russia te the Pacific conference in Washington. The note expresses astonishment at the omission, considering, it says, that Rpssia is a sovereign power and ‘that both the Russian republic and the far eastern republic - possession ° terrrmories along the Pacific. Comblaint is made in the mote that the attitude of the promoters of the confer- ence is completely in favor of the Rus- slan counter revolution and a new mani- festation of the sysiem for intervention in Russian affairs.
