Lady attendant. 55 Fourth Brooklyn 55 Madison Manhattan NEW DEBT TALKS IN 'NEUTRAL' CITY NOW PROPOSED Paris Atmosphere Held Unfitted to Patch Up Former Enemies' Claims. Paris, April 29 (P)-The twelfth week of the reparations conference opened today with a meeting of the drafting subcommittee to examine preliminary work on the proposed texts of the report to be submitted by the experts to the various governments interested. These texts cover principally the question of establishing an international bank to replace the Reparations Committee, as well as the agentCommission and Transfer general in the receipt and distribution of reparations payments.

The meticulous care and long time spent in drafting the texts of the report was said to be due desire of the delegations to leave the way open for another conference to be held later on some "neutral ground." There was 1 feeling among some of the delegations that the atmosphere of Paris was not at all conducive to patching up financial difficulties between former enemies. In one delegation, it was said this morning, semi-seriously and semijokingly, that had J. P. Morgan invited the experts instead of the Archbishop of Canterbury aboard his yacht for a cruise in the Adriatic "we might have avoided some of the shoals." Report Gilbert to Resign. Berlin, April 29 (P)-It was understood here today Dr.

Hjalmar Schacht, president of the Reichsbank and German reparations spokesman, would confer at some length with Cabinet officials before he returned to Paris Wednesday night. The purpose would be to ascertain the attitude of the government regarding possibility of a raise in the German offer for reparations annuities and terms of payments. Paris correspondents of the German papers today said S. Parker Gilbert, Agent General for Reparations, soon would resign that position to accept a post in the banking firm of J. P.

Morgan. the New York office of J. Morgan Co. a representative of the firm commented on the report that Mr. Gilbert would resign to join the Morgan company: "I can't tell you anything about that.

Such a report was circulated a year or two ago and there was nothing to it then. I don't believe there's anything to it Hoover's Pastor Will Speak in Brooklyn Next Sunday morning immediately after the close of the service at the a Friends Church in Washington, D. where President Hoover attends, the minister, Augustus T.

(Second in a Series of Articles on Washington Social Life.) Washington, April 29-With the exception of four American officials, the highest ranking persons in Washington are foreigners, the group of 14 Ambassadors who represent the major Powers of Europe, South America and the Far East. The President, Vice President, Secretary of State and Chief Justice outrank Ambassadors, but all others are beneath them in official precedence. Prior to 1914 there were not more than a half-dozen Ambassadors in Washington, but since then the United States has sent and received Ambassadors from a number of the smaller European and Latin-American States from reasons of sentiment or poiltics. Ambassadors represent the persons of Kings or Presidents, and on that account are given the highest rank. Ministers, on the other hand, represent governments, and thus rank much lower.

Foreign Diplomats Dominate. There are in all 55 Ambassadors and Ministers in Washington, representing all degrees of power, from the might of Great Britain down to the picturesque Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. The Diplomatic Corps more or less dominates the social scene. Most embassies and legations maintain magnificent establishments where entertaining is carried on for the foreign diplomats themselves and for a somewhat restricted group of Americans, most of whom have official positions. There is much angling in Washington to get invited to embassy parties.

Wednesday is "diplomatic day," on which the wives of Ambassadors and Ministers are "at home." Ambitious women spend the entire afternoon dropping cards at the various diplomatic houses. Within a short time a set of diplomatic cards is left in return. At some future time an invitation will be received to a musicale or large evening "crush." Invitations to diplomatic dinners are, however, more difficult to achieve and require some degree of personal con- tact. A Prize Assignment. The prize committee of the Senate, from a social standpoint, is the Committee on Foreign Relations.

The Senator who gets one of these assignments becomes overnight invested with a certain importance in the realm of foreign affairs. His foreign experience may be limited to a junket to Panama and Haiti, but he begins to "act up." He is assured of all sorts of courtesies if he goes abroad, and in Washington he and his wife are invited to the nicest diplomatic parties. Members of the Committee on Foreign Relations of the House of Representatives are less important because the House Committee has less power and because it is larger and more miscellaneous. A place on the Senate Committee on Post Offices or Pensions provides juicier prerogatives than a place on the Foreign Relations Committee, but it gets one in the social world. And even an assignment to the great Ways and Means Committee of House doesn't hold a candle to Foreign Relations then Committee when it comes to dining out.

Paradise for Foreigners. Washington is a paradise for foreigners, diplomatic or otherwise. The younger diplomatic secretaries, to whom little or no attention would be paid in London, Paris or Madrid, enjoy the prestige of grand dukes or princes. There are some American houses in Washington that specialize in foreigners, diplomatic or otherwise. Some hostesses would I rather have a third secretary from a Caribbean Legation dining with them than to entertain the most distinguished American scientist, musician or novelist.

Some time ago a serious situation arose when a young American woman, in an attempt to ridicule this preoccupation with Europe, invited a number of persons to dine "to meet Professor Einstein." The "Professor" was a gentleman from a midEuropean Legation who was in the secret. He acted the part even down to an incomprehensible that passed for Mr. Einstein's famous theorem, Some American women who were present, when the trick was discovered some time later, went to the various embassies and demanded apologies from the young European diplomatists who had participated in the hoax. All of which shows how serious Washington can be about itself. There is no such thing as xenophobia here.

The more representative European who is stationed here is amused, and perhaps even sometimes disgusted, with the transparent antics of Americans who pour out such social unction at his feet. AUTO ONLY CLUE IN PINTO'S DEATH With an abandoned motorcar as their only clue, Brooklyn detectives today pursued their search for the three gunmen who fatally wounded Pasquale Pinto, wealthy poultry dealer, in front of his home at 1756 69th Saturday night. The car, a blue sedan, was found yesterday in front of 1313 69th less than three-quarters of mile from the scene of the slaying. ear There was a bullet in a rear tire and another in the back seat. Pinto, who had a permit to carry a three revolver, been ambushed about by gunmen as he was enter his home after returning from his shop at 324 E.

12th Manhattan. Non-Stop Hop Around Earth To Be Attempted This Fall Washington, April 29 (AP)-The Washington Post says today that six internationally known aviators are preparing to begin a nonstop flight around the world from New York on the first clear day in ep September. The names of only three of the aviators are given-Lt. Albert D. Hulse, former Army and air mail pilot; Capt.

Harry W. Lyon navigator on the transpacific flight of the Southern Cross, and Lt. L. T. O'Connell, radio officer at Lakehurst.

The commander, the newspaper said, will be a World War aviator with more than 5,000 flying hours to his credit. The make of the plane in which they intend to attempt the most ambitious flight ever undertaken, was not learned, but it was described as being constructed partly of metal and partly of linen fabric, powered a with Whitney five engines, 420-horsepower equipped Pratt to take and on fuel in flight, and capable of a maximum speed of 150 miles an hour and a cruising speed of 120 miles. Twenty-two stations are to be established along the route, of will be used only in case of emergency, the oPst says. The plane to refuel in mid-air 12 times. Victim, Found Tied in Burning Home, Charged With Arson Self stories and a bundle left on a chair were held responsible for the appearance of Albert Pierro, 29, of 204 Avenue in the Flatbush Police Court today on a charge of arson.

Fred Belnjes of 206 Avenue smelled smoke yesterday as he was passing Pierro's home and investigated. He found Pierro lying on the floor of his apartment gagged and with his hands apparently tied behind his back. There was a fire in the bedroom and another in the dining room. The fires were extinguished by firemen with slight damage to the apartment. Pierro told the police that he had been attacked by two men as he was entering.

He said they took $61 from him and $200 from a box in the bedroom and set fire to the place after binding him. He said he had no fire insurance. Later, under questioning by Fire Marshal Thomas Brophy. he admitted that he has $2,000 insurance, according to Brophy. Brophy said he became suspicious when Pierro told him that the two men attacked him while he was carrying a bundle.

Brophy alleged he found a small bundle on a chair in the kitchen. The fire marshal pointed out that if Pierro had been carrying the bundle when he was attacked at the door of his apartment he would have dropped it in the ballway. Pierro made other conflicting statements, Brophy said. A Cook and His Canary By ALAN DEVOE Lo-Ching (not quite his real name but near enough) likes birds. He likes them alive, and he likes also to prepare them in tempting fashion for the table.

Lo-Ching is cook for a lady gentleman in St. James pl. Often, during solitary and unoccupied hours in the kitchen, he has wished for a little bird in a cage, a pleasant little yellow bird that would sing away some of the dullness of the pre-prandial hours. Last week Lo-Ching saw an advertisement in the evening newspaper, and learned that a great store had a thousand little yellow birds to sell, tuneful canaries at the trifling price of $2.98 apiece. As he read, the slanted eyes of Lo-Ching shone with happiness.

Fulfillment of his desire had come, as it always does to him who waits serenely. Happy at Thought. Friday morning Lo-Ching polished the breakfast crumbs away with unusual dispatch. Already he could fancy there was music in the kitchen, and his Oriental spirit was blithe as he left the house, with five dollars in his pocket and the name of the great store carefully in mind. In the drafty blackness of the subway, that Lo-Ching usually hated, he was oblivious to surroundings.

His habitually unexcited being was stirred, and his mind was filled with little yellow birds. When he reached the great store, Lo-Ching inquired in his politely precise manner the way to the little yellow birds. Clerks and floorwalkers smiled at the grave little Chinaman with his flat-crowned hat and MOTORIST KILLED, 3 HURT AS AUTO AND TAXI COLLIDE Police Seek Hit-Run Driver Who Knocked Down Aged Pedestrian Crossing Street. Four men were injured, one of them fatally, early today in a collision between an automobile and a taxicab at Ocean Parkway and Avenue Y. Valentine Smykea, 25, of 374 12th died of his injuries in the Coney Island Hospital; Benjamin Katz, 22, of Monticello suffered a fractured skull, and William Szalbo, 21, of 598 3ainbridge and Joseph Pellagrino, 24, of 211 Taaffe painful lacerations of the face and body.

All were riding in an automobile driven by Katz, which collided with a taxicab driven by Harold Walker of 565 W. 23d Manhattan, according to the police. The injured are in Coney Island Hospital. Detectives of the Liberty ave. station are today searching for a hit-and-run driver who last night ran down Elias Arvokova, 75, of 1966 Douglass causing him to suffer contusions and possible internal injuries.

The man was crossing Sutter ave and Douglass st. at the time of the accident. Matthew Conlon, 18, of 89 Sumpter is in the Kings County Hospital suffering from a severe laceration of the head as the result of having been knocked down by a motorcar while crossing Etna st. and Norwood ave. Martin McDonough, 23, of 684 Dean suffered possible internal injuries when he was struck and knocked down by a motorcar while crossing Grand Army Plaza.

MRS. SANGER GOES CAMPAIGNING AGAIN Mrs. Margaret Sanger, whose retirement as president of the American Birth Control League was announced last September, has returned to active campaign work since the police raid on the organization's clinic. She left for Chicago last night to attend a birth control meeting at the Women's City Club tomorrow. "The police raid on the clinic was a challenge I could not ignore," she said before leaving.

"As a result of the tremendous support we have gained because of the raid in inbuential quarters I have a new vision now of extending the work further than I had hoped to do at present. I should like to see clinics established in all parts of the city, particularly in the congested sections. Harlem has asked for one and so has an Italian community." King George Decorates Gen.

ALIEN PROPAGANDA UNDER HOUSE QUIZ Eagle Burean, Colorado Building. Washington, April 29-Spurred by an open letter from immigration restrictionists to the President and members of Congress that there is an organized "hyphenated propaganda" by organizations with alien purposes to weaken and break down our existing restrictive immigration policy, Representative John Cable of Ohio introduced a resolution in the House today to authorize an investigation and study of the alleged propaganda and efforts of foreign and other organizations to influence immigration legislation. Cable, who is a former member of the Committee on Immigration and who assisted in drafting the quota immigration restriction law of 1924 which is now in effect, stated that the purpose of the resolution is not to investigate further the national origins provision but to disclose the methods of agitators seeking to divide ranks of the restrictionists by using the national origins provision as a smoke screen. HUNTINGTON PLANS $275,000 FOR ROAD Huntington, L. April 29-Huntington authorities have decided to expend $276,000 as their share to improve New York between Huntington station and Halesite, and the town board has petitioned the State Highway Department to change their plans and construct the improvement from curb to curb practically the entire distance, and to instal the proper storm sewer to take of the surface water.

Some time ago the State Highway Department promised to place the improvement of New York ave. on thier 1929 program. This was to include a 20-foot improvement the entire distance from Huntington station to Halesite, through Huntington Village, as well as a pavement of a similar width from the Jericho tnpk. at South Huntington, south to the end of the present concrete surface at the Huntington-Babylon town line, a short distance north of the Agricultural School road at Farmingdale.

The search for Dr. Charles Brancati, who disappeared from his home, the Gouverneur Mansion, in the Bronx, on Nov. 19 last, slowed up today on the theory that the wealthy physician was still alive and that he never was kidnaped. Bronx authorities indicated it might be altogether dropped. The kidnaping theory had been stoutly held by the missing doctor's three brothers, Ernest, Edward and Oreste, who expressed the fear that the kidnapers had now done away with him.

Yesterday, however, the investigating officials learned from George B. Skillman, insurance adjuster of Congers, N. that Dr. Brancati was seen on the streets of New York as recently as the latter part of February, three months after his supposed disappearance and two months ago. Skillman.

had frequently met Brancati, he said, in the office of the late Frank M. Ferrari, head of the now defunct City Trust Company, and knew him well. In the second or third week in Februaryhe wasn't sure which said he saw Brancati at Broadway and John st. talking to David Gluckman, attorney, of 233 Broadway. Skillman, who did mot know the doctor had been reported missing, said "How do you do, Dr.

Brancati?" to him, and the doctor replied to him, "Hello, old man!" Gluckman recalled the incident, although he did not remember the name of the man addressed as "doctor" with whom he was talking. Assistant District Attorney Sylvester Ryan of the Bronx announced today that he was convinced the doctor had dropped out of sight of his own volition. 9 IN FAMILY DIE IN CROSSING CRASH Middletown, N. April 29 (AP)Only Frank Vianchi, 12, remained today of the Antonio Vianchi family of 10 to recount the grade-crossing accident that took nine lives at New Hampton, four miles from hers, yesterday. The sole survivor of the trainauto crash yesterday was still in a serious condition at a hospital here, but physicians gave him an even chance for recovery.

Relatives of the Vianchis made plans to bury Mr. and Mrs. Vianchi and their seven children, Lucia, 16; Marian, 14; Minnie, 10; George, Louise, Rose, 3, and Heien, 10 months old. The Vianchi automobile was struck 1 the west bound New YorkChicago express of the railroad. The head of the family, a railroad laborer of this city, was taking his wife and children on a Sunday pleasure jaunt when they came to the grade crossing at New Hampton, Vianchi waited for an eastbound express to pass and, as the last car rolled by, he started his machine across the tracks.

It moved directly in front of the oncoming locomotive of the fast train, was scooped up and smashed to bits as it bounded along, partly on the track and partly on the pilot of the engine. HUNT 5 FLOGGERS OF RACE REFORMER St. Petersburg, April 29 (AP)James F. Bickers, an attorney who aligned himself against dog racing and lawlessness in St. Petersburg, today was recovering from a beating given him yesterday by five men who kidnaped him from his home.

Bickers said he would heed their warning to leave St. Petersburg not later than tonight. Some mystery surrounded the affair. Bickers had just returned to his home from church services when he was accosted by the men, who apparently had awaited his return near his house. At the point of pistols.

he was forced into an automobile, handcuffed, gagged and bound. The men drove some distance from St. Petersburg, Bickers said, took him from the car, removed his clothing, robbed him of $2,000 and whipped him. RECTOR BANS CELEBRATION. The Rev.

P. J. Rogers, rector of St. Augustine's R. C.

Church, 6th ave. and Sterling yesterday completed his 25th year in the priesthood, but requested that there be no celebration of the event. The Rev. George Helsenstein occupied his place at 11 o'clock mass. Father Rogers has been pastor of St.

Augustine's for a year. long overcoat, but with such LoChing was not concerned. He ascended in the elevator and entered heaven, or so it at first seemed. Awed by Surroundings. Trills and runs, piping and warbling.

Lo-Ching was overcome by the volume of song, and could only stand in a fixity of astonishment. "A bird, you want?" someone asked him. "Yes," said Lo-Ching, "a yellow bird, please; one that will nicely Then, deliberately, Lo- Ching pointed to a tiny fat bird of brightest yellow, with fluffy wings and small pink feet. It was not possible, in the confusion, to hear the song of this little chap, but Lo-Ching I had made up his mind. He must have that bird, and he must also have the yellow bamboo cage for him, so that his bird would be a truly Chinese bird.

Lo-Ching paid his money and went straight home with his big package punctured with air holes. Ponders Silence. All day he waited for the little yellow bird to sing and when night came and silence was unbroken in the bamboo cage, Lo-Ching wondered and grew solemn. Time passed and the heart of Lo-Ching was heavy, for his little yellow bird sang not. Friday morning Lo-Ching came down to his kitchen and looked in at his little yellow bird.

In so far as canaries can, the bird was blushing furiously. On the cage floor by "his" side lay a little white egg. A furrow appeared on the brow of LoChing and he sat down to meditation.
