Convict’s \dentification of Hotel Death Weapon Gives New Lead.

CHICAGO, Aug. 25 (U. P)—A|

Stateville penitentiary convict’s story ‘that he may have given the revolver used in the Drake hotel slaying of Mrs. Adele Born Williams, wife of a Washington diplomat, last | Jan, 19 to a Chicago policeman, sent police to Bloomington, Ill, today to for some bullets fired from the gun 11 years ago. 3 The gun used in the slaying was a hammerless Iver-Johnson model

and was identified by Walter Brown, | -

a life-term convict, last night when questioned at the penitentiary. Brown, who is serving a life term for murder, is a friend of Policeman Adolph A. Valanis, a brother of Mrs. Ellen Valanis Bennett, 41, key clerk at the Drake hotel at the time Mrs. Williams was slain, Brown, police reported, sald ne visited Valanis in Chicago in 1933 and gave him a .25 caliber autnmatic .pistol. He had four other guns with him at the time, he said, and left two of them in a desk at the Valanis home. Valanis, however, denied that any guns were left there. Brown sald he was not sure if one of the guns was the weapon used in the Drake slaying. He said the gun was stolen from a drug store at Bloomington early in 1933. Short-

+ By H. H. SHACKFORD # United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Aug. 25.—Republican and Democratic foreign policy leaders today were believed seeking agreement on an unprecedented joint declaration pledging both parties to support the general details of the American plan for an international peace organizjation. Secretary of State Cordell Hull is laying the base for such action his talks with John Foster ‘foreign policy adviser to venor Thomas E. Dewey. They have conferred for five hours during the last two days and will meet again today. “We are trying to do something rather novel in American political life,” Dulles told reporters when he ‘left Hull's office last night. Hull, well aware of Woodrow Wilson's mistakes in 1919, has worked diligently to create bipartisan congressional support of his plan’ for world organization. He was assured of it for the broad outlines of his plant late in May when a bipartisan senate committee gave him a “go ahead” signal to call the current Dumbarton Oaks conference on world security.

Accord Believed Near

Before he meets Dulles for the third time, Hull will confer again with that senate committee. Republican senators who have conferred with Dulles this week have without exception stressed that the two parties are close together on questions o. an international organization and that whatever differences exist are “nothing to cause a political issue.” Furthermore, Wendell L. Willkie is supporting the key point of the American plan — empowering the United States to use its forces outside the country without a declara-

It was learned today that the most of this week's work at the Dumbarton Oaks conference has been based on the Russian memorandum. It was pointed out that it was shorter than those presented by the other two countries.

Major U. S. Points

The major points of the American plan, it was learned are: An assembly of all nations with each. nation. represented by possibly six delegates but with only one vote, to rotate its annual meeting place among the member capitals. Its major job would be election of nonpermanent members of the council A council of four permanent members—the U, 8, Great Britain, Soviet Russi and China—with eventual addition of France, and seven additional members to be elected by the assembly. The council's major job would be to maintain peace and security in the world powers and to be used only if a- majority of the council, including all the permanent members, vote to do so. -Veto Power Proposed Such a provision would give each of the big powers on the council veto power over military sanctions. The veto power would go far to kill the ghost of 1919-20 when the major issue was whether the U. 8. should commit itself in advance to the «ise of its forces in international

ican plan, the U. S. delegates could always veto any action the U. 8 was not willing to take, Furthermore, American forces would in most cases be “directed” to act only in zones which this country considers its special interest—probably the western hemisphere and the Pacific area. The American plan, it was learned, suggests that the agreements on the use of forces should be separate from the treaty setting up the international organization, but that they should be concluded soon after the organization is created. The plans are all preliminary in nature. Whatever plan is finally adopted in these and later conferences must be approved by the United States senate before this country becomes a participant, Russian, British Plans * The Russian memorandum to the Dumbarton Oaks conference was said to be a short paper not attempting to detail the various aspecls of post-war organization. It was said to follow very generally

_| the line taken by the recent Lenin-

grad Zvezda article, calling for a volunteer international air force to be used for punitive and admonitory work, and complete separation of the job of securing the world against aggressors from the job of international welfare. The latter job would be allocated to special technical councils, The British memorandum, including various technical studies, was said to emphasize the néed to — rigidity—a major fault of the league of nations. It would leave decisions to the council, arguing that the will of the great powers to keep the peace is a far greater factor. in preventing future wars than specific commitments in advance on unknown situations. ‘The British also would oppose inclusion of anything approximating .article’ 10 of the old league covenant - which guaranteed the status quo of members.
