SENATE PARTY' SAILS FOR HAITI TO INVESTIGATE Members Expect to Clear Up Complications in South Sea. PHILADELPHIA. Nov. 24.—The senatorial committee of 22 members which will Investigate conditions under the military occupation of Ha it s and San Domingo by United States forces, sailed aboard the transport Argonne today from League Island Navy yards for Port-du-Priuce. Haiti. The party included Senators McCormick. Pomerene and Jones, the latter replacing Senator King, who resigned from the committee. Capt. G-. C. Day and Lieutenant Commander Mayo, liaison officers; Water Howe, attorney for the committee; Ernest Angell, counsel for Haiti; Horace Knowles, counsel for San Domingo, and a number of secretaries, interpreters, agricultural experts and press representatives. Senator McCormick, discussing the trip, said: “After six years of American military occupation, the situation in'Haiti and San Domingo is so complicated and serious, with apparently no responsibility or co-ordinated government, that an investigation is imperative, not only for the future welfare of the islands, but to vindicate the good faith and honor of the United States. Otir investigation will be made in no partisan spirit of criticism but inspired by the equal desire of Democrats and Republicans to doing justice to wrongs if they exist.” Senator Pomerene agreed with McCormick and added that impartial local Investigation was necessary to bring out the full truth and clear up misunderstandings and mistakes to lay the basis for future cooperation and cordial interrelations.

Says Children Should Develop Slowly CHICAGO, Not. 24.—“ Don’t tell your child to be e ‘little man’ or a ‘little lady.’ " Mrs. Marietta Johnson gave this advice at a meeting for mothers held by the ! Chicago League of Women Voters. “We have enough ‘little men’ and ‘little ladies' —I mean spiritually and socially, not physically,” she declared. ! “He’s a little boy and she’s a little girl. ! and each is as different from an adult as a green persimmon from a ripe one. “No mother should be proud of the precocious child, because a child who is overdeveloped in one sense is under- j developed in another. The hope of the ! race is in prolonging childhood.” Too many parents, according to Mrs. ; Johnson, “have their children In college before they’re a year old.” Parents have no right to determine what the child Is going to be, she said They should not try to “make” musicians or lawyers or anything else out of children. Their concern, in the opinion of Mrs. Johnson, is with the present, not with the future of the child. The kiddies should be permitted to gradually develop themselves.

Briand Leaves for France Commending Conference

Tells Press Battleships Not Buiit for Sardine Cans. By MARIE I)E MONTALVO. WASHINGTON, Nov. 24.—The Premier of France left Washington today amid the warm demonstrations of his popularity that have followed him throughout his visit. An enthusiastic crowd was waiting to see him at the nniou station and M. Briand’s face was wreathed in smiles. He shook hands with every correspondent and expressed his pleasure at the way the newspapers had treated him. "I had the impression,” he said, “that the press of the country was ferocious — but you have been most kind. 1 appreciate it. I appreciate it the more because I am one of the ‘gang’ myself, oh, but really one of the gang. In my young days I nsed to report dogfights myself and if I could not find a fight, I Invented it.” M. Brand's last word to the press was that battleships a;e not bnilt for sardine fishing and as long as there are capital ships for the big nations, there miiit be submarines for the smaller ones. “The very existence of capital ships," he continued, “is symbolic. They are buiit for aggressive warfare, and to k -ep them means that an aggressive warfare will still exist. Submarines and cruisers are obviously for defensive purposes.” It was called to M. Brland's attention that his attitude on this question did not seemed popular with the British proas, which attributed an ulterior motive to France's opposition to the British pro gram. “Ah," said the premier, “but when the British asked for 500,000 tons of capital ships, I did not try to see in it a menace to France. “We do not wish to give np the submarine. We have disarmed ail that we can. Our land disarmament will be greater than the naval disarmament which has been proposed. The naval disarmament xVill be 39 per cent of present forces. France has reduced her land force already 33 per cent. When the plans pending are put through It will be 50 per cent. Yet France stands iu FAIL TO CLAIM BANDIT’S BODY Dead Robber Taken to State Medical School* Special to The Times. MARION.

Relatives failed to claim the body. Engle, who was shot by the bandit, and who Is reported recovering, will receive a reward of 3200 for killing the bandit, it is said.

Max Stevenson, negro, address “city,” was found carrying a two-gallon jug containing one gallon of “white mule” whisky, last night, at Roanoke and Washington streets.

Premier Briand Happy as He Quits Arms Conference WASHINGTON, Nov. 24.—“ The Washington conference has done much for France. I am a happy man.” With these words. Premier Briand of France took a smiling farewell of the limitation of arms conference. Accompanied by members of bis staff Briand -left for New York, from whence he will sail for France tomorrow.

BRIAND’S ARMY STAND AROUSES BRITISH LAMENT Official Organ of Lloyd George Sees France Pledged to More Militarism. LONDON. Nov. 24.—England is extremely disappointed that Premier Briand has not seen fit to reduce substantially the land armament of France, the London Chronicle —Premier Lloyd George's organ—undoubtedly expressing the highest British opinion, declared today. Even considering France’s Hitter memories of German invasion—her armies are not more to her than our navy is to us—the Chronicle stated In a bitter arraignment of Brland's platform: AMERICA’S LEAD FOLLOWED. "We followed America’s lead. Indeed, we even hoped to better it, but France has refused to give or follow In military arms limitation. Instead, she has confused the issues and started awkward cross- currents in the sea of peace. "English opinion has given due consideration to Briand’s view of European affairs, with every sympathy of the great suffering of France during the war nnd with undiminished faith in the value of the entente —and England rejects it. "Europe is not on the verge of war. Germany is effectively disarmed. Both America and Britain have assured France she will never stand alone as champion of liberty. France's lack of practical sympathy does not merely demand a predominant army, but goes so far as to couple the demand with a plea for battleships and submarines. This does not point toward disarmament, but to a new era of militarism. LOYAL TO NAVAL PROPOSALS. "We remain loyal to our naval proposals, but the nature of the demands makes the burden more difficult for us to hear unsupported. "As America's hopes—as well as our own--nre jeopardized, we must point out that Brland's policy is necessarily a bar to the realization of a general limitation of armaments, which Britain hoped and still hopes that Washington will achieve.” CLIMBS TO DIE.
