CURZON TALK APPROVED BY LONDON SCRIBES Continuance of Large Standing Army by France Is Generally Condemned. LONDON. Nov. 25.—The Britis;i press today agreed with the stand taken by Lord Ourzou, severely criticising the French attitude against limitation of her military resources. The Brondle summing up the opinion of the larger portion of the press says: “The door is still open, but if France bangs it, we do not know what will happen to Europe.” The Chronicle, organ of Premier Lloyd George, warned France against “the mistake of Germany.” "Germany trusted only to her physical strength—and she fell. So will France, if she tries the same,” the newspaper says. A reliable authority asserts that Premier Briaml may come to London before returning to Paris from the Washington conference. This, it was said, may delay the expected journey of Lloyd George to the disarmament conference. The London Times was practically the only dissenting voice in the wave of sentiment against the French position. It did not criticize the staud outlined by Curson, but merely pointed out it contained no su tgestion that the British government is prepared to “display a vigorous initiative in international affairs.”

The Morning Post denied (hat France is afraid of Germany saying she is only asserting her rigiit to "security.” Cnrzon, in his speech declared, “If France were to attempt to adopt an isoshe not in the long run injure Germany and she would fail to protect herself. "In what lies the strength aud protection of our ureat ally across the channel? It does not consist in the valor of her soldiers, great as that is. it does not consist in the strength of her armies, powerful as they are. it does not consist in the Inexhaustible spirit of her people or the justice of her cause. "It exists in the fact that the conscience of the world and the combined physical force of the world—including .America: — will not tolerate the reappearance in the heart of Europe of a great anil dangerous power which has always rattled the sword fit fife scabbard and which is a perpetual menace to the peace of the world. * “We ,shall convert Germany into a peaceful member of the international court officially if the great powers combine.” Thiavas tak-m as the unofficial answer of Britain to the speech of Premier Briand made before the disarmament conference.

Moll of Superior Court, Room 5, to sign a decree granting a divorce to Mrs. Oma M. Hamilton, 558 Highland avenue, from Frank Hamilton, today resulted in the court summoning both parties into court. When the Hamiltons arrived, they discovered that Judge Moll had requested Prosecutor Evans to be present to hear questions which the court desired to ask Mr. Hamilton relative to his testimony last Monday at the time the court granted a divorce to Mrs. Hamilton. According to Judge Moll, Hamilton testified last Monday that he assaulted his wife for no sufficient cause. "The more I thought of his testimony, the more convinced I was that, something had been put over on me.” said Judge Moll, “I refused to sign the decree and summoned both parties into court, along with Mr. Evans, whom I have asked to decide whether the matter should go to the grand jury for possible perjury or assault and battery.” The court then reopened the case, heard additional evidence and vacated the decree granting the divorce. Shortly afterward Mrs. Hamilton dismissed tho divorce action. No action will be taken by the grand jury, it is thought.

"All we needed was Jes' two bones.” Asked if he had not been arrested for soiling liquor he explained: “You know, judge, how it is in smnll towns, where they are prejudiced. After the police arrest some white people they say, 'Why don’t you go down and raid tlie niggers?’ so they come down and arrest us. But they never convicted me.” WHISKY TURN’S TO TEA. He pointed out that once when lie was arrested with two eases of supposed whisky that the stuff turned out to be tea when taken to court. “1 got defrauded," Brooks said.
