Alluding to what be called the absurd and preposterous idea, that the reactionary element- in Oer- many was arming for an invasion ot Prance, this official declared that such charges suggested the suspicion that they were Inspired to keep militarism alivo elsewhere. "We have no army and no navy," he said.

"Does any sane man sup-poso we could even prepare for modern warfare wtlh our curren cy system wrecked almost beyond repair, our exchequer pretty wen depleted, our credit shattered, and with an internal economic and food situation that faces collapse.

Supplementing Chancellor Cuno's statement of yesterday, it was declared today that the German plan should bo understood as providing a truce for a perold of from 45 to fit) years and not for the indefinite time indicated by the word "generation." Although no further official information was forthcoming, the impression Prevails that Herr Cuno's move was carefully planned In advance nnd that he even apprised the Washington government of his proposed pact.

Is Regarded as the Final Effort to Reach a Collective Settlement of the Question FRANCE AND ENGLAND DIVIDED IN POLICY French Insist Upon Seizing the Productive Resources of Germany on the Left Bank of the Rhine Paris, Jan. 1 (by.

the Associate Press). The prime ministers oC France, Great Britain and Belgium together urith thft Marquis Delia. Torretta, representing the Italian premier, will go Into conference tomorrow In which is regarded as the final effort of the allies to reach a collective settlement of th reparations question. There was a sober and even anxious spirit In allied circles tonight. In face of tho probability that, if th conference fails, separate and direct action by France will follow.

The meeting Is a continuation of last month's premiers' conference in London which wrs railed to examine whether any practical results could come from a general economic congress In Brussels. The main questions to be decided are, first, whether a moratorium can bn granted to Germany, and, second, upon what terms. umaea in roiiey France and Great Britain are sharply divided in policy. The French insist upon seizing the pro- "ct the left bank of the Rhine and fn the Ruhr valley as guarantees that, when the moratorium terminates. Germany will resum her reparations payments.

President Mlller-and. In replying to the New Year good wishes of the diplomatic corps today, made It clear that Francp stands upon her conception of justice and her rights under the treaty of Versailles. "Complete peace can be established," Ii declared, "only upon tho basis of the treaties and through respect for the rights acquired and the obligations The Rritlsh government thoroughly disapproves stern methods or penalties and desires to work out a plan under which Germany would -Uu ulkwd moratorium of at least two j-ears. this time to be employed so reorganizing her resources that she may successfully shoulder the debts. Mian for Geroianr Any settlement likely to be successful depends, in Mr.

Bonar Law's view, on some form of international loan for Germany and to-cether with his associates on the Rritlsh delegation, he has received with approval the suggestion of the American secretary of state that an International committee determine the amount of reparations ti be expected. The conviction held by Premier Polncar. of France Is that a change in heart on the part of Oer-many Is required above all other considerations. He believes Germany's plans for the future are based on a policy of resistance to the execution of th Versailles treaty, and any effort to help her he regards as utw less until the Berlin government decides in earnest to fulfill Its obligations. Extension of the rresent partial moratorium, which expires on Jan nary 15, and the raisins of cash for Germanv fn the international market, will.

In the French view, be nullified by the continued German opposition to payment of her debts', so that action such as France now contemplates will be eventually forced upon the allies. The Belgian and Italian governments now appear to lean more toward thn French view than toward! the British, but with some dlspost- tlon to seek middle rrround. A Conciliatory Program The Italian delegation has a plan which It will present to the council after Polncar and Bonar Law have explained the French anil British viewpoints. This conciliatory program calls for euarantees to satisfy France, hut without penalties so as to meet the British ob-lectlon, relying upon such action by German as would have the result of making the guaranteed productive without the use of force. The Belgian premier.

M. Theu-nls, who worked strenuously in London last. August to bring Lloyd George and Poincare together, also seeks to harmonize the French and British programs, whielv It is understood, he thinks could be done if the German government would unreservedly affirm its yilllngness to fulfill the reparations clauses of the treat to the full extent of the nation's resources. Both Betelan and Italian views thus rely upon Germany to surrender economically, trusting that the allies will lav down for her terms that she can meet. The French cabinet meets to MUM I im'THUM.

1. Discovery of "a cabin In a lonely canyon near Los Angeles," Where Mrs. Clara Phillips, "hammer murderess" who escaped from the Los Angeles countv jail December "concealed herself for at least four days" after the Jail break was announced at the sheriff's office tonight. The statement was made that Armour L. Phillips, husband of the convicted murderess, was known to have "purchased food at a grocery near the cabin for four days after his wife's escape" and that another man whose identity has not been learned delivered the food at the cabin.

i iceiiplcil Riveiitly The officers declined to name the exact location of the cabin, but declared their investigations proved it had been occupied recently. They said this discovery offered them the first "real clew" to the whereabouts of Mrs. Phillips and that it would he followed by an intensified effort to locate her. Among their first steps, it was state, would be a reriuestioning of Phillips, who would bo asked to explain his alleged purchases of food and to name the man who made tin-, deliveries. After that all persons living in the vicinity of the cabin ale to he ouestioned.

According to Frank Dewar, deputy sheriff, Phillips appeared at lie grocery on four consecutive days immediately after his wife's escape, paid for a supply of. food, ordered that some of It he cooked, and told the proprietor that another man wnnM call for It later. Toward rvcnlnif. the second man would arrive, obtain the food and hurry 'away. Describes Man The grocer is said to hove given the officers a good description of the man.

The officers said they did not believe Mrs. Phillips remained in thp cabin more than four days, as lh purchases of food at the grocery ceased after that period, and it would have been dangerous for her to appear In public to obtain supplies in person. They said they believed she was transported by friends either to another state or to Mexico. Phillips recentiv announced plans to return so his former bom" in Houston. Texas, but is believed still to be in or near Los Angeles, officers said.

The lions held tho Trojans during the first period but during the remainder of the contest the Trojans gained consistently through the Penn Slate line. The first period showed the Nittany Lions at their best. Starting with tho second period, 'the Trojans displayed an offensive that proved too powerful for Coach Hugo Bezdek's men. The famed Penn State line was punctured several times for substantial gains. The Nittany Lions seemed In excellent condition and the breaks of the game were about evenly divided, Tha work of tho Trojan line proved the surprise of the day, for it held the eastern forwards, said to be invincible.
