TODAY IN SOCIETY
BY MAY BIRKHEAD.
H 1t haa long been recognized, and often
» ; emarked, that the best way to produce
T a renew effect is to dig up something from
'
: - Past- This idea finds interesting il-
t lustrations in. 1Dusic. More- and more,
? the purveYors of concert and apena are
refurfoishing the successes of previous
generations. Within recent months, M.
h Jacques Rouché has solicited the opinion
I 0f the Palais Garnier subscribers as to
what" they would like to have revived.
Guillaume Tell has latterly been dusted
eîf, also Beethoven's ballet; and now we
are to have a chance to hear again
jfeyerbeer's celebrated Les Huguenots.
This composer, after jrefashioning his
style in Ita.ly, was first heard in Paris
in 1-825, at the Théâtre Italien, with his
lg Croisé en Egypte. Six years later,
when his Robert Le Diable was produced
here for the first time, the Grand Opéra
}ia.d one of the most delirious moments
ever known. This tremendous success
caused the Paris Opéra to solicit another
work from Meyerbeer. He took his time
about it, but finally Les Huguenots was
performed here in February, 1836. So
, dlfferent was its style from that of
Robert Le Diable that the Paris opera-
goers took some time to adjust them-
selves to the change; but oncé they had'
I done so, this intensely dramatic work
entered on its brilliant career.
. Next Monday night, the Opéra will give
a revival of Les Huguenots, originally
created by such artistes as Nourrit, Du-
prez, and Mlle. Falcon. The performance
on Monday night will have a brilliant
cast, with Mme. Yvonne Gall as Valen-
tine, Mme. Eidé Noréna as Queen Mar-
guerite, and the other parts taken by well
known artists, under the direction of M.
Henri Busser. This work has always ex-
ercised a great ho!d over the public with
its intensely dramatic situations, and its
inusic so admirably fitted to reveai the
smgers to the best advantage.
Mme. Eide Noréna is at present busy
on-two roles which she will create within
the . next few weeks; In March she ap-
tiears at the Opéra in Monte Carlo
■ where she will create the role of Eve
,Ir Raoul Gunsbourg's new work Satan.
C,Iie is also creating, for the f?rst time
in France, the :'ole of Ninetta in
Johann Strauss' Une Nuit à Venise,
Vfh its lush and delicious melody to
y>ç ,given. Íp Monte.. Girlo . Sïnis part ' hâs been sung in Vienna by
IWme. Jeritza. Raoul Gunsbours has
Iprovided the librcttto for Strauss' music.
IBefore g'oing' to Monte Carlo, Mme. No-
[réna will . fulfill. engagements at Bor-
Ideaux and Toulouse.
Mr. Seton Henry !s returning from
Rwit^erland on Jan. 18 and will proceed
immediately to Egypt. to spend some
weeks, ' Mr. and Mrs. Henry and their
family, including the- handsome Cairn
terrier, went to Adelboden a few days
after Christmas. Mrs. Henry and their
hildreu will rems in there some weeks
longer. Mr. Henry is something of a
3og fancier and, like the Prince of Wales
Lord Birkenhead, thinks there is
othing so \yonderful as a Cairn. Several
(veeks ago, he bought two fine Cairns
in England paying about 80 pounds a-
iG\}e for them. After getting them safely
to Paris, he found they wer" not alto-
ether co'hg'enia], so very - reluctanUy
gave one to a friend. A few days later
J.he friend notified him that the pup
tad disappeared and was nowhere to be
.found. Though his new home \Vas at
the oll1er side of Paris, the' Cairn was
soon seen trotting u'p the front steps
>f the Henrv house in the Rue de Va-
enne. :NeedJess to say, it was not easy
or the Henrys to part with this in-
ei1igen ttie. animal again. The Prince
?f Wales is laj%'ely responsible for the
reat Cairn vogue in England. He is
arely seen without his favorite Cairn
om. ; When the Prince left for Africa
ast week, he would enti-tist the dog' to
io one but his sister, Princess Ma.rv.
^ord Birk-enhead has also had some-
to do with making the Cairn
amous. He carries his Cairn under his
rm whorever he a'oes.

JAPANESE ASK
NO CHANGE IN
CAPITAL SHIPS
Policy Of French Now
Seems Reconcilable,
London Reports
(Tribune Press Service)
LONDON, Jan. 8.—"Japan is not de-
manding any change in the Washington
Treaty ratio for capital ships. She is
quite content with the 5, '5, 3 ratio and
intends to abide by it. What she claims
in the coming negotiations at the Lon-
don Conférence deals with other classes
of ships entirely, and in these auxiliaries
she demands a ratio of 10, 10, 7. Our
position has been misunderstood un-'
willingly, and, I haven't a doubt, mis-
represented, because it. has been 'assum-
ed that we are wanting to change the
capital ship ratio. That is not so." Th:s
statement was made to The Tribune to-
day in a special interview by Mr. Wak-
atsuki, chief of the Japanese delega-
tion. ' .
He went on to say that Japan was
opposed to the abolition of the sub-
marine because she regarded it as a de-
fensive weapon and the whole theory of
her navy was defensive. It was nôt con-
sidered as a commerce destroyer.
"We have always obeyed the rules of
war." said M'r. Wakatsuki, "and we are

Heading Society
For Project
(Special Cable To The Tribune)
WASHINGTON, Jan. 8. — The high
hopes of.wets are not reduced, and their
déterminations is strengthened by the
report made today by President Hoover's
Law Enforcement Commission. While
this body agreed unanimpusly against
modification of the Volstead Law, it
split very. seriously;on its recommenda-
ti&ns as to how tb make prohibition
effective..
Not ' only are many : religious bodies
now '' lukewarm regarding, prohibition,
but ' influential civic associations have
lately become aggressive in denounc-
ing. the law. as no longer a '.'noble ex-
p-eriment," but in reality a menace to
the morals 'of the American people and ■
a threat to peace on the Canadian bor-
der. '
A march of 30,000,000 people, who will
"parade in the sacred-cause, of Personal
liberty," is one of. the demonstrations
planned tbroughout the contry in pro-
test against the prohibition law. These
activities are sclieduled. for this spring,
with many other spécial plans to sup-
port the cause.
To carry out the proposai, which has
excited national enthusiasm by its mere
announcement, a society has been for-
med with Major. General Clare E. Ed-
wards, wartime commander of the
Yankee - Division of the American Ex-
peditionary Force, as chairman.
"Youth today has no ideals," says
General Edwards. "We ha vI' forgotten
-w'iat the word 'liberty means." -
Major Général Edwards and his sup-
porters . believe that "tbe ca.ncerous
situation in the United States" can be
greatly improved by permission to use

HAGUE PARLEY
SEEMS ON WAY
TO AGREEMENT
Private Talks Result
In Settlement Of
Many Points
BY HENRY WALES.
(Tribune Press Service)
THE HAGUE, Jan. 8. — Widely cir-
culated rumors last night that the Ger-
man delegation were offended by Pre-
mier Tardieu's insistent demand for a
written agreement and that the repara-
tions question revert to the compétence
of the Versailles Treaty if the Reich wil-
fully defaults the execution of the
Young Plan, were blasted today wh on
private conversations among the prin-
cipal delegates resulted in considérable
progressy toward the settlerpent of the
outstanding points.
The French Premier tonight asserted
that only four major problems had not
heen settled and expressed the hope
that a complète accord would be reach-
ed on all questions early next week.
The French this evening sent Dr.
Curtius a draft of the document which
they hold as satisfactory a& a guaranty
hinding the indemnity settlement if the
Young Plan ..is ever denounced. The
text was telegraphed to Berlin for the
Reich Oabinet's examination and a reply
is expected tomorrow or Friday.
Premier Tardieu a!so explained to the
Germans in détail that the "sanctions"
mentioned as a recourse ln case of de-
fault, do not mean forceful measures or
military occupartion but. merely fixation
of the juridical pos-itlon for référence
t.o the World Court or other body to
settle. ;
Other Problems Open.
Another open problem is the ques-
tion of commercialization of the unc'on-
ditional annuities and réparations and
the mobilization of the initial portion
as an international loan.
The French take the position that
Germany should not jeopardize the suc-
cess of this ' loan in the world money
mal'k;ets by attenipting to rai se the loan
for the Ikeiç]Î posts- and the Reich rail-
ways which is under qonsider;a,tipn ln

N. Y. CRASH ENDS
ARTY SWINDLE OF
MUSEUM OFFICIAL
Borrowed Cash Fails
To Come Bach After
Stock Debacle
[ A clever swindling scheme invented
by a French Government employee has
been cast on the rocks by the recent
Wall Street crash and the ingen:ous
plotter is now languishing in a local
Jail..
Edouard Ramond occupied a position
in the administration of the French
national muséums which placed con-
sidérable sums of money at his disposa!.
So he decided to borrow somè of 'it and
buy modern paintings of . the best
known French masters. These he sent
to New York, where he organized an
exhibition and sale.
The theory of the scheme was that
he would sell the canvases at a large
profit and then be able to reimburse
the State without anyone being the
wiser. Ail. was. gúing nicely until the
stock crash wiped out aIl the loose
money ih New York and sent the prica
of paintings way down into the cellar.
So the borrowed money stayed
missing and people got suspicious. In-
vestigations, followed and ended with
the indietnient of the worthy Ramond
for misappropriation of Government
funds. t
So far as ls known. about 500,000
francs are missing, but the State hopes
to get sorrie of this back by the con-
fiscation of the meagre sums which
\\ere finally paid for the paintings by
starving' Gothamites,

Prince And Princess Unite
Nations At Wedding Rites
Marie-Jose And Umberto Are Married
With Pomp And Ceremony Before
Brilliant Throng In Chapel
BY DAVID DARRAH.
(Tribune Press Service)
- ROMIJ, Jan. 8.—Littlo Belgium today gave its snow white Princess in
marriage to -Crown Prince Umberto, heir apparent of Mussolini's young
Pascist iîaly. !
In the mystic half -,Ii,uhts of the Quirinal Palace's Pauline Chanel,
where many Popes have been elected, King Albert led his daughter to
the red plush-coverod prayer stool where she was immediately joined
by Prince 'Lmberto'. Both Imeeled before the altar. There Cardinal
Maffi, Archbishop of Pisa, married them, for better or for worse, uva>
ceremony which lasted only about five minutes.
Mussolini, i'il the uniform of Prime.
Minister, watched from the right-hand
side of the altar and as Cardinal Main
asked the questions of the marriage
ritual, the two -young royal spouses
glanced in the direction of their parents,
the sovereigns ot Belgium and Italy,' as
if mutely asking their consent.
The marriage took place before 1,500
royal guests, diplomatie corps members,
Government représentatives, newspaper-
men and photographers who filled the
Pauline Chapel and the adjoining Salon
of Corrazzieri, while about the .Royal
Palace, which sits atop the Quirinal Hill,
was thrown a steel ring of soldiers to
control the enormous crowds.
The chapel was decorated with d'^ep
red velvet draperies and 25 large a.nd
extremely valuable tapestries. A red
velvet canopy was draped above the altar.,
and six golden candlesticks bore the' lopg
wax ceremonial tapers. On either side
of the altar stood a throne, backeod 'by
the colors of the regiments of the
garriso:n of Rome, the regiment of
Prince Umberto and the flag of the
Belg'ian Disabled Soldiers,
Outside the chapel, in the, Room of
the Corrazzieri benches had been ar-
ranged. On the firs-t three rows were
four or five hundred women, wives,
daughters and relatives of diplomats, '
State officiais and those who had been
presented at court. Most of them wore
half decollete dresses with long. creamy
lace veils fitte.d over their heads and'
with bejewelied diadems in the form of .a
hoop. The men wgre, ey.çi}ing. clothes
with black vests, or 'uniforms, and most
of the. manly breasts were covered with
at least five or six medals. '
There was à long wait, which every-
one spent in scrutinizing dresses and
manners of the new arrivais. Prince&s
Marie-José had left the Belgian Embas-
sy for the Palace shortly after- nine
o'clock, but at 10 o'clock, when the
ceremonies were to &tart, there was no-

retired heavyweight boxing champion,
may have to' undergo an opération, ac-
cording to a statement made here by
Biilty G'!bson, the eX-!pug;Ust's former

of one of Walpole's books for 1,500 en-
thusiastic women.
Tunney's autograph reads as follows:

1,400 Liters Flow Freely
As Brandy Barrel Bursts
SAINT-JEAN,-D:ANGEJLY, Jan. 8.—
The good people of this village never
heard of the régime sec. Therefore it is
not surprising that they behaved as they
did today when the staves of a barrel
containing 1,400 litres of brandy gave
way, allowing the liquor to escape.out
of M. Audoin-Dubreuil's worthy estab-
lishment.
When the brandy poured out into the
gutter. everybody ran for utensils of
one sort or. another. Some just cupped
their hands and others licked it up like
a cat does milk. À few geese and ch:ck-
ens strutting about the street likewise
sipped of the flowing, golden , liquid
which they thought was water. They
staggered away ccmp!ete]y surprised.
j M. 'Audoin-Dubreuil. however, reckons
the whole affair as a loss.

TODAY IN SOCIETY
BY MAY BIRKHEAD.
H 1t haa long been recognized, and often
» ; emarked, that the best way to produce
T a renew effect is to dig up something from
'
: - Past- This idea finds interesting il-
t lustrations in. 1Dusic. More- and more,
? the purveYors of concert and apena are
refurfoishing the successes of previous
generations. Within recent months, M.
h Jacques Rouché has solicited the opinion
I 0f the Palais Garnier subscribers as to
what" they would like to have revived.
Guillaume Tell has latterly been dusted
eîf, also Beethoven's ballet; and now we
are to have a chance to hear again
jfeyerbeer's celebrated Les Huguenots.
This composer, after jrefashioning his
style in Ita.ly, was first heard in Paris
in 1-825, at the Théâtre Italien, with his
lg Croisé en Egypte. Six years later,
when his Robert Le Diable was produced
here for the first time, the Grand Opéra
}ia.d one of the most delirious moments
ever known. This tremendous success
caused the Paris Opéra to solicit another
work from Meyerbeer. He took his time
about it, but finally Les Huguenots was
performed here in February, 1836. So
, dlfferent was its style from that of
Robert Le Diable that the Paris opera-
goers took some time to adjust them-
selves to the change; but oncé they had'
I done so, this intensely dramatic work
entered on its brilliant career.
. Next Monday night, the Opéra will give
a revival of Les Huguenots, originally
created by such artistes as Nourrit, Du-
prez, and Mlle. Falcon. The performance
on Monday night will have a brilliant
cast, with Mme. Yvonne Gall as Valen-
tine, Mme. Eidé Noréna as Queen Mar-
guerite, and the other parts taken by well
known artists, under the direction of M.
Henri Busser. This work has always ex-
ercised a great ho!d over the public with
its intensely dramatic situations, and its
inusic so admirably fitted to reveai the
smgers to the best advantage.
Mme. Eide Noréna is at present busy
on-two roles which she will create within
the . next few weeks; In March she ap-
tiears at the Opéra in Monte Carlo
■ where she will create the role of Eve
,Ir Raoul Gunsbourg's new work Satan.
C,Iie is also creating, for the f?rst time
in France, the :'ole of Ninetta in
Johann Strauss' Une Nuit à Venise,
Vfh its lush and delicious melody to

IBefore g'oing' to Monte Carlo, Mme. No-
[réna will . fulfill. engagements at Bor-
Ideaux and Toulouse.
Mr. Seton Henry !s returning from
Rwit^erland on Jan. 18 and will proceed
immediately to Egypt. to spend some
weeks, ' Mr. and Mrs. Henry and their
family, including the- handsome Cairn
terrier, went to Adelboden a few days
after Christmas. Mrs. Henry and their
hildreu will rems in there some weeks
longer. Mr. Henry is something of a
3og fancier and, like the Prince of Wales
Lord Birkenhead, thinks there is
othing so \yonderful as a Cairn. Several
(veeks ago, he bought two fine Cairns
in England paying about 80 pounds a-
iG\}e for them. After getting them safely
to Paris, he found they wer" not alto-
ether co'hg'enia], so very - reluctanUy
gave one to a friend. A few days later
J.he friend notified him that the pup
tad disappeared and was nowhere to be
.found. Though his new home \Vas at
the oll1er side of Paris, the' Cairn was
soon seen trotting u'p the front steps
>f the Henrv house in the Rue de Va-
enne. :NeedJess to say, it was not easy
or the Henrys to part with this in-
ei1igen ttie. animal again. The Prince
?f Wales is laj%'ely responsible for the
reat Cairn vogue in England. He is
arely seen without his favorite Cairn
om. ; When the Prince left for Africa
ast week, he would enti-tist the dog' to
io one but his sister, Princess Ma.rv.
^ord Birk-enhead has also had some-
to do with making the Cairn
amous. He carries his Cairn under his

NO CHANGE IN

London Reports
(Tribune Press Service)
LONDON, Jan. 8.—"Japan is not de-
manding any change in the Washington
Treaty ratio for capital ships. She is
quite content with the 5, '5, 3 ratio and
intends to abide by it. What she claims
in the coming negotiations at the Lon-
don Conférence deals with other classes
of ships entirely, and in these auxiliaries
she demands a ratio of 10, 10, 7. Our
position has been misunderstood un-'
willingly, and, I haven't a doubt, mis-
represented, because it. has been 'assum-
ed that we are wanting to change the
capital ship ratio. That is not so." Th:s
statement was made to The Tribune to-
day in a special interview by Mr. Wak-

He went on to say that Japan was
opposed to the abolition of the sub-

her navy was defensive. It was nôt con-

WASHINGTON, Jan. 8. — The high
hopes of.wets are not reduced, and their

report made today by President Hoover's

this body agreed unanimpusly against
modification of the Volstead Law, it
split very. seriously;on its recommenda-
ti&ns as to how tb make prohibition

Not ' only are many : religious bodies
now '' lukewarm regarding, prohibition,
but ' influential civic associations have
lately become aggressive in denounc-
ing. the law. as no longer a '.'noble ex-
p-eriment," but in reality a menace to
the morals 'of the American people and ■
a threat to peace on the Canadian bor-
der. '
A march of 30,000,000 people, who will
"parade in the sacred-cause, of Personal
liberty," is one of. the demonstrations
planned tbroughout the contry in pro-
test against the prohibition law. These
activities are sclieduled. for this spring,
with many other spécial plans to sup-
port the cause.

excited national enthusiasm by its mere
announcement, a society has been for-
med with Major. General Clare E. Ed-

HAGUE PARLEY
SEEMS ON WAY
TO AGREEMENT
Private Talks Result
In Settlement Of
Many Points
BY HENRY WALES.
(Tribune Press Service)
THE HAGUE, Jan. 8. — Widely cir-
culated rumors last night that the Ger-
man delegation were offended by Pre-
mier Tardieu's insistent demand for a
written agreement and that the repara-
tions question revert to the compétence
of the Versailles Treaty if the Reich wil-
fully defaults the execution of the
Young Plan, were blasted today wh on
private conversations among the prin-
cipal delegates resulted in considérable
progressy toward the settlerpent of the
outstanding points.
The French Premier tonight asserted
that only four major problems had not
heen settled and expressed the hope
that a complète accord would be reach-
ed on all questions early next week.
The French this evening sent Dr.
Curtius a draft of the document which
they hold as satisfactory a& a guaranty
hinding the indemnity settlement if the
Young Plan ..is ever denounced. The
text was telegraphed to Berlin for the
Reich Oabinet's examination and a reply
is expected tomorrow or Friday.
Premier Tardieu a!so explained to the
Germans in détail that the "sanctions"
mentioned as a recourse ln case of de-
fault, do not mean forceful measures or
military occupartion but. merely fixation
of the juridical pos-itlon for référence
t.o the World Court or other body to
settle. ;
Other Problems Open.
Another open problem is the ques-
tion of commercialization of the unc'on-
ditional annuities and réparations and
the mobilization of the initial portion
as an international loan.
The French take the position that
Germany should not jeopardize the suc-
cess of this ' loan in the world money

N. Y. CRASH ENDS
ARTY SWINDLE OF
MUSEUM OFFICIAL
Borrowed Cash Fails
To Come Bach After
Stock Debacle
[ A clever swindling scheme invented
by a French Government employee has
been cast on the rocks by the recent
Wall Street crash and the ingen:ous
plotter is now languishing in a local
Jail..
Edouard Ramond occupied a position
in the administration of the French
national muséums which placed con-
sidérable sums of money at his disposa!.
So he decided to borrow somè of 'it and
buy modern paintings of . the best
known French masters. These he sent
to New York, where he organized an
exhibition and sale.
The theory of the scheme was that
he would sell the canvases at a large
profit and then be able to reimburse
the State without anyone being the
wiser. Ail. was. gúing nicely until the
stock crash wiped out aIl the loose
money ih New York and sent the prica
of paintings way down into the cellar.
So the borrowed money stayed
missing and people got suspicious. In-
vestigations, followed and ended with
the indietnient of the worthy Ramond
for misappropriation of Government
funds. t
So far as ls known. about 500,000
francs are missing, but the State hopes
to get sorrie of this back by the con-
fiscation of the meagre sums which
\\ere finally paid for the paintings by
starving' Gothamites,

Prince And Princess Unite
Nations At Wedding Rites
Marie-Jose And Umberto Are Married
With Pomp And Ceremony Before
Brilliant Throng In Chapel
BY DAVID DARRAH.
(Tribune Press Service)
- ROMIJ, Jan. 8.—Littlo Belgium today gave its snow white Princess in
marriage to -Crown Prince Umberto, heir apparent of Mussolini's young
Pascist iîaly. !
In the mystic half -,Ii,uhts of the Quirinal Palace's Pauline Chanel,
where many Popes have been elected, King Albert led his daughter to
the red plush-coverod prayer stool where she was immediately joined
by Prince 'Lmberto'. Both Imeeled before the altar. There Cardinal
Maffi, Archbishop of Pisa, married them, for better or for worse, uva>
ceremony which lasted only about five minutes.
Mussolini, i'il the uniform of Prime.
Minister, watched from the right-hand
side of the altar and as Cardinal Main
asked the questions of the marriage
ritual, the two -young royal spouses
glanced in the direction of their parents,
the sovereigns ot Belgium and Italy,' as
if mutely asking their consent.
The marriage took place before 1,500
royal guests, diplomatie corps members,
Government représentatives, newspaper-
men and photographers who filled the
Pauline Chapel and the adjoining Salon
of Corrazzieri, while about the .Royal
Palace, which sits atop the Quirinal Hill,
was thrown a steel ring of soldiers to
control the enormous crowds.
The chapel was decorated with d'^ep
red velvet draperies and 25 large a.nd
extremely valuable tapestries. A red
velvet canopy was draped above the altar.,
and six golden candlesticks bore the' lopg
wax ceremonial tapers. On either side
of the altar stood a throne, backeod 'by
the colors of the regiments of the
garriso:n of Rome, the regiment of
Prince Umberto and the flag of the
Belg'ian Disabled Soldiers,
Outside the chapel, in the, Room of
the Corrazzieri benches had been ar-
ranged. On the firs-t three rows were
four or five hundred women, wives,
daughters and relatives of diplomats, '
State officiais and those who had been
presented at court. Most of them wore
half decollete dresses with long. creamy
lace veils fitte.d over their heads and'
with bejewelied diadems in the form of .a
hoop. The men wgre, ey.çi}ing. clothes
with black vests, or 'uniforms, and most
of the. manly breasts were covered with
at least five or six medals. '
There was à long wait, which every-
one spent in scrutinizing dresses and
manners of the new arrivais. Prince&s
Marie-José had left the Belgian Embas-
sy for the Palace shortly after- nine
o'clock, but at 10 o'clock, when the
ceremonies were to &tart, there was no-

1,400 Liters Flow Freely
As Brandy Barrel Bursts
SAINT-JEAN,-D:ANGEJLY, Jan. 8.—
The good people of this village never
heard of the régime sec. Therefore it is
not surprising that they behaved as they
did today when the staves of a barrel
containing 1,400 litres of brandy gave
way, allowing the liquor to escape.out
of M. Audoin-Dubreuil's worthy estab-
lishment.
When the brandy poured out into the
gutter. everybody ran for utensils of
one sort or. another. Some just cupped
their hands and others licked it up like
a cat does milk. À few geese and ch:ck-
ens strutting about the street likewise
sipped of the flowing, golden , liquid
which they thought was water. They
staggered away ccmp!ete]y surprised.
j M. 'Audoin-Dubreuil. however, reckons
the whole affair as a loss.
