FRANCE, SOVIET REACH ACCORD ON PEACE PACT Treaty of Nonaggression Is Signed by Two Nations at Paris. fCoovrlirbt. 1931. bv United Press) LONDON, Aug. 19.—A long step toward peace in Europe was believed to have been taken today *'ith the conclu.'-idn of a treaty of honaggression between France and Soviet Russia. The United Press learned that the pact had been initialed by representatives of France and Russia in Paris, concluding negotiations started in May. The pact binds these nations, two of Europe's most intense political rivals since the World war, to maintain strict neutrality in event the other is attacked without provocation by a third power or group of powers. Otherwise, it was understood, the agreement closely follows the lines of the German-Soviet Union neutrality accord. The conclusion of the treaty was regarded as significant in the relations of France and Russia. It furthermore was believed certain to have a strong influence on other European nations. The Soviet authorities repeatedly have charged France with participation in alleged anti-Russian plots. The Moscow press, government controlled, frequently has pointed to France as the future leader of a "capitalistic war” against Russia. French diplomatic relations with Moscow often have been severely strained.

If adopted by southern states, Long indicated he would try to put the "no cotton plan” on a world wide basis. All New Orleans newspapers announced editorially they would support Long in his campaign.

By United Press HOLLYWOOD, Aug. 19.—Battle lines having at least been sharply drawn in the Jack Dempsey-Estelle Taylor divorce feud, Miss Taylor settled down today to perfect herself in the vaudeville part which soon will take her east. The actress said that since Dempsey has sued for divorce in Reno and she had sued him for a divorce in Los Anglees, there wasn’t much more to be done until the courts of Nevada and California act. "I'm not talking much about the divorce,” she said. "It’r sort of a relief to get the thing out in the open after all these months of negotiations, but that’s about all I can say. I don't think it’s very good policy to talk at a time like this. "Now that we have the thing in court, I’m going ahead learning my lines for my vaudeville tour. I leave here Saturday for the east.” Miss Taylor was served Tuesday night with a summons in the Reno case. Joseph Scott, Miss Taylor’s attorney, indicated he expected to get a much better figure for her through the California courts than he could have by negotiations directly with Dempsey’s attorneys.

SNEAK THIEVES SEIZE PURSES IN CITYHOMES Petty Robberies Reported to Police; Street Car Man Is Held Up. Petty crime flourished in Indianapolis Tuesday night and early today, according to reports of sneak thievery and minor banditry received by police. One man was captured after he was seen trying to enter a downtown restaurant this morning. He was Peter Ston, 26, New York, who said he only recently was released from prison at Mansfield, 0., where he served nineteen months, for a Cincinnati burglary. Ston said he was trying to enter the Monninger delicatessen and restaurant at 38 West Ohio street when a porter saw him. Ston ran up an alley, but a police squad captured him a few minutes later. He is charged with entering a house to commit a felony and vagrancy. George Dewitt, 1010 Eugene street, conductor of a Fairview car, walked behind the car at Forty-second street and Boulevard place to replace a trolley pole someone h~d jerked from the wire. A masked gunman met him behind the car and took $26. Three north side homes were entered by a sneak thief while families sat on their porches Tuesday night. From each house purses with small amounts of money were taken. The robberies occurred at 2316 North Pennsylvania street, home of Alfred M. Tine; 2124 Broadway, home of Mrs. Mary MaManon, and Mrs. A. Cartier, and 221 East Fall Creek boulevard, home of Joseph Kibler. James Weber and H. B. Harris, 708 East Eleventh street, Apt. 4, awakened earl ytoday and saw two men piling merchandise from an A. & P. grocery at Eleventh street and College avenue, into a washtub in an alley behind the store. A lookout man saw Weber and Harris as they went down to investigate, and the trio escaped, leaving behind them the tub, filled with meat and tobacco.
