TRADE ALLIANCE OF EUROPEAN NATIONS URGED Economic Unity Essential, Briand Tells League; U. S. Affected. BY HENRY WOOD United Pres Staff Correinondent GENEVA, Sept, ,s.—An economic federation of European states—the United States of Europe—was proposed by Premier Aristide Briand of France to the assembly of the League of Nations today. Briand joined Premier J. Ramsay MacDonald of England in urging precautions against war, but at the same time proposed a defensive alliance of trade that obviously would affect directly the United States and its tariff. “After solving disarmament,” Briand said, “the next great problem is economic disarmament. If peace is to be assured amongst nations, this work will be long and technical, but if the government add their political force to a solution, it can be found. “While the problem is somewhat outside of the League of Nations, nevertheless it is attached to the league. It involves an economic federation of states, especially those geographically close to each other, such as the European nations, that will permit them to enter into close contact and solidarity of interests. “Such a federation would not infringe in the slightest on the sovereignty of the states concerned. I beg the delegates present to take up the matter with their respective governments so at least the next assembly can consider it.” JAIL-BREAK ATTEMPT SAFEGUARDS PLANNED Time Clock for Officer and Flood Lights Adopted. To prevent recurrence of a recent attempted jailbreak. Sheriff George Winkler today planned two additional precautions against escape of county jail prisoners. A time clock will be installed, and punched by the night jailer as he makes his rounds both inside and outside the jail, Winkler said. Flood lights are to be directed against the outside of the building on all sides, so no one may drop from a window without being seen. Winkler has asked a 512,000 appropriation of the county council to improve the locking system on “federal row,” the second tier of cells. The locks there are obsolete, he said.
