OUSTED D. A. R, MEMBER WILL ASK VINDICATION Expelled for ‘Black List’ Revelation, Fights for Reinstatement. B'l Time * I tn ini WASHINGTON. April 13—Mrs. Helen Tufts Baillie, the Massachusetts woman who was expelled from the D. A. R. for her opposition to the organization's "black list,’’ will seek vindication from 3.000 representatives of the individual chapters when the "Daughters” hold their thirty-eighth congress here next week. Mrs. Baiilie's friends will move for her reinstatement by appealing against the decision of the national board of managers, which expelled her last June after a trial behind closed doors. Mrs. Baillie cai not be present, but she has engaged attorneys to presen’ her case, provided the congress agrees to permit an appeal. There is no assurance that it wilL The national body will also be represented by counsel, who has prepared a pamphlet containing the D. A. R.’s views. Hearing May Be Denied The D. A. R. may refuse to give a rehearing to the case. Last year they turned down by 2,000 tc 6 a resolution introduced by the Baillie group in an effort to obtain a vote by individual chapters on all questions of "national importance.” Under the present system national policies are determined by resolutions adopted at the annual April congress and the resolutions committee can kill any proposal by refusing to report it. to the floor for vote by the delegates. No precedent exists for the present situation. But the national body charges in the pamphlet that ‘‘every opportunity was given her to defend and justify her acts,” and that she was expelled by unanimous vote. Protested Naval Support Mrs. Baillie had objected to the D. A. R.'s support of Ex-Secretary Wilbur’s billion-dollar naval program. She had also exposed and waged war on the organization’s ‘(black list,” in which many promirient persons of liberal views were banned as speakers before chapters. In an acrimonious controversy with national officers she charged that the society had been duped into a campaign for suppression of free speech. Mrs. Baillie, with the aid of counsel, has prepared a paper setting forth that "blacklisting” still flourishes. Names of men with view's diverging from those of 100 percenters are still given to the D. A. R. by Fred Marvin of the Key Men of America, she charges.

BY PALL MALLON United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, April 13.—Aroused by the free flow of diplomatic liquor from embassy boards to the chosen few of Washington society, a group of senatorial drys is preparing to demand at the coming session of congress, some action to require diplomats to subscribe to prohibition laws. A resolution has been prepared by a dry Republican senator proposing to express the sense of congress that the President should declare persona non grata all diplomats named to Washington unless personal assurances are received they observe the laws of the United States. The organization of the dry army against the diplomats is anew phase of the general prohibition furore which is growing among legislators assembling for the opening of President Hoover’s special session Monday. Scores of resolutions are being prepared for introduction, delving into nearly every phase of the prohibition question arising from the recent I’m Alone sinking, the Aurora (111.) killing by a prohibition agent, sale of liquor on the Leviathan, the Jones law and the proposed enforcement from the treasury to the justice department.

GERMANS SEEK ARMAMENT CUT Drastic Suggestions Put to Geneva Conference. B.U United Press GENEVA, April 13.—Although the preparatory disarmament conference will not be opened formally until Monday, private discussions began today, with the memorandum filed by Germany a chief topic. The memorandum was written by Count Von Bernstorff. former ambassador to the United States, who heads the German delegation. It is understood the Germans will make an effort on Monday to drive their suggestions through. To date, the German memorandum is the most drastic yet filed with the conference, with the possible exception of that of the Soviet. It asked for the limiting of trained reserves, war stores, armaments and general war supplies. Von Bernstorff suggested a convention to provide a simultaneous reduction of armed reserves. He also asked a rigid limitation of aggressive weapons, such as tanks, bombing planes and long-range guns. He suggested the creation of a permanent commission to settle complains of any nation not complying with the convention terms. The number of buffalos in primitive times is estimated to have been between fifty and seventy-five million head.
