The one-third reduction proposal was referred to favorably but was not adopted. Hundreds ot questions remained unsolved, but the chief ones may be set forth follows: Question Unsettled 'French demand for organized International security. X--The German demand for arms equality.

Neither question can be settled without a Franco-German understanding of effectives (military personnel.) capital ships shall be abolished or limited In size. submarines shall be abolished. land and naval artillery can be simultaneously limited as to officials said they believed If a solution of the opposing Franco- German thesis could be found and some definition of effectives reached. they would regard the conference as certainly having succeeded. OBITUARY (Continued from Page One) day.

The mayor said that It had been decided to hold the court In the fiont hall lobbv Instead of in the police department section for the convenience of motorists. In this manner, he said, they are spared the necessity and embarrassment of entering police headquarters and appearing before the police desk sergeant. Mayor DeVan said he had Issued orders to all city employees that they may not excuse tags. Judge Dawson, he said, also had agreed not to excuse tags and the only person with power to pass upon them will be the clerk, sitting as traffic judge or the officer who issued the tag. The officer who Issues the tag may withdraw it he sees fit, the mayor said.

Under the plan discontinued Saturday, an officer was not permitted to excuse an offense. "Except in cases of sickness or absence from the city." Mayor DeVan said, "each motorist who receives a tag will be expected to appear personally before the clerk on the afternoon following the day he Is tagged. If through negligence or wilfully he neglects to appear, a capias will be Issued for the violator and he will forfeit his right to ask the city to excuse him. "Each motorist receiving a tag will have the right to present his excuse to the clerk, and If the clerk sees ftt he may excuse the motorist. If he does not see fit.

he may assess the $1 flnc. If the motorist oblects to this, he may appeal his case to the municipal judge who will sit each Saturday morning to pass upon the cases." Under the first experimental court, only a few of the several hundred persons tagged appeared, and each was excused. To those who did not appear. Mayor said, will be dispatched a letter Instructing them to come to the new one-man court. "This is our flrst experience with a traffic court." said Mayor DeVan.

In addressing the city's traffic officers Saturday, when the flrst court was discontinued, "and I want to discuss with you the failure of the public to respond to the summonses Issued by you. under order of the city govern' mcnt 'In trying to solve the difficulty Judge Dawson. Chief Britton and I have discussed the feasibility of a traffic court to find out just how few do respond to parking tags. "This many." continued Mayor DeVan, Indicating a huge stack of yellow and red sections of tags, turned In by the officers, "have Ignored the summonses Issued you men. These stubs represent sufficient tags.

If each violator was fined, to pay your salaries, the cost of printing the tags, the cost of no-parkins signs and the expenses of the whole traffic system for a week. Thin tr.anv neraons think the traffic system a Joke. "We have decided that in the future each motorist receiving a tag must make a personal appearance to put up bond or to present his excuse. At the end of each week the traffic court will sit to assess lines against those who have not appeared. "We wnnt you to understand that this administration Is going to back you In your efforts to enforce the city's traffic laws.

The people have got to recognize those summonses. The purpose of this Is not to make it hard upon the conscientious motorist who occasionally slips up, but to discharge the open and deliberate violator. "If it is possible to prevent a.viola- tion, do so. Warn motorist first, if you see him in a violation, and if he persists in the violation then issue him a tag. It is always better to prevent any crime than It is to apprehend the wrongdoer after the crime has been committed.

"Be courteous to the public at all times. Hold within you the things you ere sometimes tempted to say. Be courteous, but be firm. Be salesmen. Sell yourselves as Individuals and sell your department to the public through courtesy and help.

"The traffic situation Is one of the most difficult and most important of all city problems. Through the enforcement of the rules, which are designed to help the many and not any minority, we hope to make the problem solve Itself. "In the future no one In the city employ has a right to excuse a tag The violator must make a personal appearance at the city hall before the designated authority, and ISc only agency with authority to excuse the tags will be this court or the onicer who 'ssued It. If the ofllcrr who Issues the tag believes there Is grounds for withdrawing a tag, he may do The mayor admonished the men never to discriminate, tagging one violator and failing to tag another He said he received complaints of this, but It wns apparently due to a misunderstanding of circumstances among the motorists rather than a fault of the ofllccrs.

Rainey urged recognition to bolster American foreign trade and to win for the United States a friend.

It Is a high-handed procedure." Carey pointed out that the board of trade, the world's largest grain market has not suspended Its operations, except for holidays, since Its formation In 1848. The effect of the flrst suspension In the board's history, he predicted, would be "chaotic." Millions of dollars in grain transactions, he said, would be paralyzed.

"With harvest time approaching, the suspension would have a terrific effect on the millers of the country. As the world's largest grain market, the board of trade naturally is the most widely used for hedging operations, by which millers protect themselves against price fluctuations on futures contracts. Suspension ot the board of trcde would deprive the millers of its facilities. KANSAS CITY. July 23 (UP).

New Working Plan To Aid Jobless Evolved MUCCATINE. Iowa, July 23 (UP-An industrial experiment designed to relieve unemployment and economic conditions by raising wages and reducing the number of working days per week was announced here today. The experiment Is fostered by O. A.

Hammer, president of the Iowa Pearl Button company. His plan is certain to help the towns in which his four button factories are located. He believes It may help the whole country If other manufacturers follow his example. Hammer's announcement said that starting August 15 his four factories will operate at capacity, giving employment to 300 men and women. Wages will be raised 5 per cent and a standardized five-day week will be adopted.

The button workers are paid on a piece-work basis, so the wage Increase and the reduced working week are directly related. "For at least 60 days," said Hammer, "we are going to forget all about our profits and concentrate on the profits that accrue to the community from added employment and Increased buying power. "We-belleve It is better to give jobs than doles. Continual charity will weaken the fibre of people who receive it. But the morale and self- respect of the country can be upheld by decent employment.

"If our plan were adopted generally over the country. It would so restore buying power that there would be a satisfactory demand for the products of our factories." "The cIToct of suspension would be so widespread that the grain futures commission might just as well have gone the limit and ordered the board of trade closed permanently." --Russia has a peculiar lizard that chirps through Us tail. --About 9 per cent of the forest fires are due to railroads, it is said.

They are go- Ing to resume "weather shooting." The custom was widely practiced In the Bavarian as well as the Austrian Cannon shots were Into clouds threatening a thunderstorm.

In order to precipitate an early burst and prevent much feared ball- storms. In 1817, the Bavarian government prohibited "weather shooting." calling It a superstitious belief worthy of the middle ages. In the meantime, however, science claims to have established that the Bavarian farmers' notion about weather shooting was not so superstitious after all, and the old custom will be given a new trial this summer.
