FRENCH DEBT SETTLEMENT IS LIKELY SOON New Ambassador to U. *s. Composes One-Man Commission. Times WasKlnntoti Bureau. lil New l ork Avenue WASHINGTON, Feb. 26.—The French debt to the United States, amounting on June 16 last tc $4,227,000,000, likely will be settled within the next ninety days. A number of things have happened to change the Franco-Ameri-can debt situation since Finance Minister Joseph Caillaux, in a huff, hurried back to Paris following the sudden and sensational collapse of the September parley. Caillaux himself, brilliant, egotistical, has passed from the scene. With him went what he once dubbed his “council of guardians”—the other members of the debt commission, a varied assortment of personalities ranging all the way from able to decorative but dangerously dumb. In their place France has sent to Washington a one-man commission —Senator Henry Berenger, with the rank of ambassador. Level-headed, lacking the irascible, jumping-jack temperament which unfitted Caillaux for dealing with such characters as Mellon, Hoover, Smoot and others of the particularly stolid American war debt commission, he Is mote than likely to get results. 1 Shuffles the Cards Unofficially, Ambassador Berenger has not yet commenced negotiations. In reality, he began the day he landed. Now, quietly shuffling the cards preparing for the deal, when public announcement Is finally made that the game has begun, it will, in fact, be nearly aver. Caldaux lost out because he was a poor poker player. He tried to fill too many inside straights—he insisted upon too many formulas that were not vital. Also, he set a time when he would have to quit playing, winner or loser, and it was his fate to have to j&?t up and leave the table at the exact moment when his fortunes were at their lowest. Had he taken the time for one more round, j a few more shuffles of the cards might have given him a winning hand. Plenty of Time Ambassador Berenger has plenty of time. He can take off his coat and collar —even his shirt, If he wants to—and play until the cows come home. Meantime, sentiment and events are veering his way. Officials here are beginning to realize that France faces a grave political crisis and that something must be done, and done soon, to her. A debt settlement Is Imperative now to prevent disaster. If the crash comes there Is no telling when. If ever, there will be a settlement. Aonther factor In France's favor Is the liberality shown to Italy following the Caillaux fiasco. America settled with her at 26 cents on the dollar, present value—with no serious payments due on account for he next decade —and loaned her another $100,000,000 Into the bargain. Britain gave her even bettter tjrms than that. Why, friends of France here are asking, should France, who had the war forced on her, and who suffered far more than Italy suffered, be treated less generously than Italy, Who came Into the war of her own volition nearly a year after It started end for specific purposes of her own?

OWNS LESS THAN THIRD Pennsylvania Senators Denies Mellon’s Trust Grip. WASHINGTON, Feb. 2B. —Secretary of the Treasury A. W. Mellon and his brother Richard, own less than 33 per cent of the stock of the Aluminum Company of America, Senator Reed, Pennsylvania, Republican, and former Mellon attorney, asserted in the Senate today.

Strength and Renewed Health for Men Past 40 New Magic of ARlUM—Radium In Tablet*—Without Drugs—Bring* Amaiing and Lasting Relief from Kidney. Bladder, Prostate and Nervous Weakness—•est It Yourself. Money Refunded If It Palls Seven out of ten men past 40 are victims of overworked, sluggish kidneys and bladder weakness, say doctors. These bring on so many distressing ailments which often lead to serious and perhaps fatal diseases, that every sufferer from lame back, rheumatic twinges, dizziness, pains in the head, sour stomach, irregularity, nervous weakness and lack of strength, should start at once to get into his system the marvelous, restorative radium power supplied by ARIUM. This produces a vitalizing internal exercise, renewing proper normal action Just as Nature intended. Amazing testimony of Physicians and users gives convincing proof of the remarkable power of ARIUM to restore health and strength to the sick and afflicted. A multitude of alarming symptoms quickly disappear.* You see and feel a truly startling improvement in yourself each day. Ben F. Finney, a prominent Minerologist of Tulsa, Okla., writes: “I have just received the second order of ARIUM from you, which is evidence of what I think of it. It is not necessary for me to add any praise to a radium product, as I feel sure everyone already knows the wonderful power it furnishes to the body, which in all cases is the cause of renewed health and strength.” The Associated Radium Chemists, Inc., of New York, which supplies druggists with ARIUM, guarantees successful and satisfactory results from its progressive use in every case or money refunded and offers $5,000.00 reward if it fails to prove thaj a definite quantity of genuine radium fs used hi its preparation. ARIUM is easy and economical to take and may now be readily obtained in this city from good druggists such as Hook Drug Stores, Haag Drug stores,f tores, H. J. Huder and Goldsmith’s.— dvertisement

John D. Is Great Golfer, Trip Around Links Shows

John I). Rockefeller on the links in Florida.

Rockefeller Has Trouble With Caddies, Though— They’re Awed. By Hamilton M. Wright, Jr. NE A Service Writer ORMOND BEACH, Fla., Feb. a . —I took a lesson in golf from John D. Rockefeller, Sr., the other day. I took It by observation as I kept Mr. Rockefeller’s score. When the six-hole game was over, Mr. Rockefeller gave me a shiny new dime. “I’m glad you couldn't count more than seven,” he laughed. Playing with Mr. Rockefeller were Mrs. J. V. Warner, Mr. Boulder and General Adelbert Ames. I thought Mr. Rockefeler’s game remarkable. He wore, by the way, a gray cap and suit, with a sweater under the coat, and w'hlte cloth gloves. Mr. Rockefeller was the last to drive off at the first tee. He sent the ball straight down the fairway for 150 yards. His second shot hit the green, but the ball rolled on across. The Repartee Starts “You can take that shot over If you wish,” said the General. “I don't have to. It’s already over,” chuckled Mr. Rockefeller. The General missed a putt, and insisted the hole was in the wrong place. When they drove off from the Second tee, Mr. Rockefeller’s ball bounced into the rough. He came up, and looked at it thoughtfully. “Better move It over here,” he said to his darky caddy, indicating a spot on the fairway. “You know we give ourselves all kinds of license,” he said 'to me. Mr. Rockefeller made a remarkably good shot on the third green. Mrs. "Warner came over a.nd shook his hand. "Well, I don’t know what kind of a game I’d play if it were not for all these kind remarks,” he said. Another Wise Crack General Arnes teed up, took a long swing and a poor drive Into the rough. “Too much talking, too much talking,” he protested. “I can’t drive when you people talk.” “Well, I didn’t say athlng,” said Mr. Rockefeller. "I haven’t said a thing for the past six months.” He laughed heartily, and thought it a good joke on the General.

Mr. Rockefeller didn’t play the full nine holes. After the third he led his friends over to the sixth. I asked him why he didn’t play right on through, as the fourth hole was straight and level. “Well, we always go this way,’’ he replied. Mr. Rockefeller took off his coat and handed It to one of the caddies. The caddies were all dumbly silent. They were awed by the presence of such a notable, I guess.

none of them said a word during the entire game. Straight Into—the Pond From the sixth tee Mr. Rockefeller drove Into a pond. "Hurry! Hurry!” he exclaimed to his caddy. "You can get the ball before It sinks Into the mud.” But the caddy was overcome by stage fright, apparently. He didn’t move a step. Mr. Rockefeller teed up another ball, and again drove into the pond. He was puzzled. “I think I looked up,” he said, “and I shouldn’t do that. Did you watch me?" Nobody answered. Mr. Rockefeller glanced about and saw another foursome headed by Miss Dorothy Johnston, daughter of the manager of the Hotel Ormond. "Come on and pass us. We are In no hurry,” shouted Mr. Rockefeller. But Miss Johnston, thanking him, begged that he keep right on. For Economy’s Sake The oil king then walked to the side of the pond to soe if he could find the ball. He said to the caddy: "Now don’t you think that If you made a mark here in the mud, you could get that ball when we’re through?” The caddy just mumbled. Mr. Rockefeller then teed up the third time, and made the hole in seven. It was a par five. “How do the scores read?” Mr. Rockefeller asked me en route to the eighth hole, where the game ended. “Are we holding our own? You know I picked Mrs. Warner for my partner, and I feel responsible for her record.” I told him that he and Mrs. Warner were one stroke under the General and Mr. Boulder. The score was 58 to 59 for five holes. “Bravo, bravo,” said Mr. Rockefeller to Mrs. Warner. “We axe doing splendidly.” And he struck up a lively -whistle. I asked Mr. Rockefelelr then If I might take some pictures. He nodded his permission. He sank an excellent putt on the eighth green, and then walked out to meet the foursome which was following. He shook hands with Miss Johnston and two other young ladles In the party. Then his chauffeur came and whisked him home. (Copyright. 1926, NEA Service. Inc.)
