P.) —All suggestions for limitation of mil: tary aircraft \were trust aside as im- practicable toda¥™ by the naval commit- tee of the arms conference, the following resolution being adopted: “The committee is of the opinion that it Is not at present practicable to impose any effective limitations upon the mem- bers or characteristics of aireraft, either commercial or military.” At the same time, agreement was reached for the creation of a mixed commission of experts and jurists to take up at some future time a study of the rules of warfare In their application to aerial operations. The exact wording of the resolution to this end, including the specific mission of the commission and just how the body was to be_con- stituted, was lefs to the drafting com- mittee. The resolution declaring aircraft lim- itation fmprasticable at this time, follows closely the danguage of the renort of the sub-tommittes. It was changed, how jover, to eliminate an exception to lizht- er than alrcraft noted by the sub-com- mittee, the full committee discussion making it clear that the delegations were agreed that th same general arsu- ment agalnst restricting afreraft develop- ment because of the wide possibilities the future may hold for commercial avi- ation, applied both to airplanes and dir- iglble: Another change In the sub-committec conclusion was the insertion at the suz- gestion of Arthur\J. Balfour, of the British_group, of the words “at present.” Mr. Balfour said the time might come e a o n a color ;{q.l‘h/\ flag of the free state. when arms limitation projects could be Mr. Collins anparently thought they|nrojected Into the field of aviatlon, more conld summon a ratifying body of mem- deftnite knowledge then he ble as to, the vractical distinction be- four members representing Trinity col-| tween - commercial and m fiving lege.

Newberry, of Michigan, declared foday that with God as his wit- néss he was not to this hour conscious of a single act—uniawful, dishoncrable or corrupt—in his eampaign against Henry Ford in 1918. For exactly half an hour Mr. Newber- v/ with eves bf his colleague upon him, read a prepared speech without interrup- tion. And then when he had conciuded for half an hour more he was subjected 10 a cross-examination at the hands of Senator Walsh of Montana, a democratic member of the committee which in a’mi. nerity report, held he was not entitléd to his_seat. How Senator Newberry came through the trying crdeal was viewed for the most part through partisan eves. There appeared to be no doubt that his repubii- can friends were jubilant.
