The great procession of auto-
mobiles to the annual Yale-
Princeton football classic in New
Haven began early today. Thou-g
sands of machines passed through
the First district this morning
headed toward the Yale bowl in
the Elm City. The threatening
wsotber seemed to have no effect
on those who wanted to see the
,game.
By 11 o'clock a continuous
stream of cars were passing
through the city. It was not un-
til after noon time that the pro-
cession slackened.
Under the personal supervision
of Chief of Police William R.
Pennington, practically the entire
membership of the local police
department was on trame duty.
The cars were shunted through at
a good pace. Boy Scouts aided
the police in regulating trailic.

many —— Italy Warns
Too
LONDON: Nov. 17 (Associated
Press).—Tho British government
will not accede to the demands of
France for punitive measures against
Gemany. and last night notified Lord
Crews. British ambassador in Paris,
to so inform the Council of Ambas-
sadors.
The cabinet came to this decision”
after a long session, at which the
steps M. Poincare purposes to to take
to force the extradition'of former
Crown Prince Frederick William and
permit a full resumption of allied
military control in Germany, which
has been suspended fo the last ten
months, were discussed.
As Premier Poincare says France
will enforce these penalties separ-
ately if Great Britain refuses to
Join here, there appears to be a
hopeless deadlock between the two
nations. which some of the political
observers believe pretends an ulti-
mate dissolution of the entento cor-
diale.
It is felt in Ministerial circleleere
that matters are exactly where they“
were early last August, when Lord
Curzon. the British foreign secretary
sent his famous note to Premier
Poincare, in which he said that
Great Britain could not much longer
delay separate action toward a. set-
tlement without the gravest conse—
quences-‘to the recovery of trade and
to the peace of the world.
At present, owing to the elections
in England, there scams 0 be

dealing with Germany. The govern-
ment appears bent on preventing, if
it can, any further territorial occu—
pation ofAGermany. which it believes
would only further paralyze. Ger-
many's ability to pay reparations.
Some members of the government
favor making a. demand on France
for the $3,000,000.000 France owes
Great Britain as a lever to force
France to adopt the British view-
point regarding Germany. but other
ministers are opposed to this. in the
belief that it would bring no results
from France and would upset the
economic equilibrium of Europe and
a further depreciation in the franc.
They feel they must consider in this
connection the interests of the larger
number of British firms and individu-
als who have large investments in
France.
If. however, the United States
should see fit to ask France for re-
payment of the American debt it is
probable these officials say. Great
Britain would make a. similar re-
quest. 7
ROAIE, Nov. 17.—(Associated
Press.)—"Tho Italian 1 government
cannot give its aproval to any
further occupation of German terri-
tory." declared Premier Mussolini in
the senate last night.
"One must have the courage" to
say that the German people ccnnol
be destroyed," the premier contin-
ued. "They are a people which has
known civilization and which may
tomorrow be an integral part of
European civilization."
Signor Mussolini intimr‘e-J that
Italy did not contemplate such rn
extremely grave step as breaking
with France. which would. in a‘ cer-
tain sense. be equivalent to declar-
ing the treaty ofl’srsailles void and
might involve another European
conflagration and leave Itlay isolat-
ed.
The premier declared the request
to-deport the former crown prince
from Germany was a mistake. It
meant another deadlock, ‘or m
prince could not leave‘ Germany
without furthbr complicating the
situation.
In the course of a. reference to the
recent Corfu incident. Signor Musso-
lini described the League of Nations
as a "Frauen-British dust," in which
Italy hsd‘in inferior position.

tive duty. '
William B. Joyce, president of the

competence of responsible bank of-
ficials were responsible for payroll
and similar robberies and for the
death of two messengers in Brook-

information as to arrangements of
the firm and knew when the watch-
men and cleaners would be on an
upper floor.
The robbery occurred in a. neigh-
borhood ordinarily well policed. The
Union club and St. Patrick's Cathe-

of Mrs. \V. K. Vanderbilt is across
the street in one direction and the
Cartier jewelry establishment on an
opposite corner. The residence. of
Bernard Baruch is also near. Patrol-
man Small was near the Cathedral
and Stumpf was a. block away when
the crash occurred.
Gillen, the watchman in the
Twenty—sixth street stable, said the
four men surprised him while he

a. horse to it. lowered both to the
street floor and put four packing

On the upper floors of the stable
were four trucks containing silk.
