communicated to the British Foreign
Office its latest views on the Dawes
report and the question of German
representation at the ‘ conference.
The German representations will he
presented at the next ploniary ses-
sions. The French delegation ap-
peared more doubtful today then the
other ‘conferees as to the time of this
session. taking the View that it they
not be possible to hold it before \Ved.
ncsdey.
The French. it is indicated. are
none too pleased over the possibili.
ty of losing control of all the rail.
ways to the Ruhr. They have adopt.
ed a. View somewhat more concilia-
tory toward the British position that
the lines should be returned to the
authority of the inter-Allied railway
board. but they are still seeking ways
to insure the maintainance of their
own communications in any eventu-
n his” svaisol* one
* ality in the Ruhr.
‘ Premier Herriot and his colleagues
are stepping carefully. the confer—
ence reports indicate. so as not to do
anything to antagonize the bankers
whose support is necessary for the
success of the German loan. and de.
spite \the present differences. the
French premier believes it will be
possible to reach an agreement.
Sir Eyre Crow. Permanent Under.
Secretary of the British Foreign
Office and General Nollot, French
minister of War. discussed the rail-
way situation at length this morn-
ing.
Loxnorg. JuIy 2L—Efforts to
reach understandings and iron out
disputed points between the Brit-
‘ish and French today occupied the
committees of the Inter-Allied Con-
ference which Will attempt to put
the Dawes report on reparations into
execution. While some progress has
ilready been made in adjusting the
complicated viewpoints. several
questions are yet far from scttlc~
ment.
3 The matter of arriving at an
agreement on economic valuation
has proved somewhat complex and.
although there are divergent views
among the British French and Bel.
glen delegations. it is believed that
some understanding in regard to
this point. will be reached.
The committees sacrificed the
Sundayoholiday.
Obstacle Encountered
The sub-committee encountered
an obstacle in the Franco.Belgian
claim to be allowed to maintain
some form of communication be-
tween tho Ruhr and the Rhineland
and France and Belgium. 1t failed
to agree on the railways question
and decided to report to that effect
to the full committee today.
The French. it is learned. want
to dilute the German railway per-
sonnet with a large number of
French and Belgian railway men
and thus assure themselves that the
railways will be more or less under
French supervision in case of a
strike of the German workers or in
other emergencies.
At the end of the day‘s discussions
therailways sub-committee was in a
deadlock. The British insist on a
return to the old arrangement re-
garding the railways. This was in
force for the occupied part of the
Rhineland before the Ruhr occupa—
tion. By it power was conferred on
the Inter-Allied railway commission
to utilize troops in case of a strike
or other difficulties.

Vincent. Costello.
Vincent Costello. of the arm of
Costello and O'Mcara said:--—
"I believe that the operation of
buses between Norwalk and the out-
lying districts end towns would be a
fincg‘nove. I believe that a bus to
New Canaan is needed badly at the
present time, as there are a great
many people between there and this
city that would like to come to Nor-
walk and shop. There are a great
many residents of New Canaan that
would use the buseos. There are a
nulnbes of places that would be
benentted by such a bus service."
Berry Bracken.
Sorry J. Bracken of the firm of
Conneeliy end Bracken said:—
"A bug senicc between Norwalk
and terri‘t ries surrounding the city
would he trade in this city con-
siderably. It would give a great
many eople an opportunity to do
their opping'in Norwalk. Consid-
erable business that is going else-
where would be brought to Norwalk
by the establishment of bus service."
A. J. Dawson.
A. J. Dawson. Manager of the Rol-
ler Five and Ten Cent Store said:—
“Of course I am in favor of the
establishment of bus lines to the
outlying districts. It would be a fine
move toward keeping the residents’
trade in Norwelk, who now go to
Stamford and other towns and cities.
simply because they find it impos.
sible to get to Norwalk."
Raynor Wermo. 7
Raynor “'crme of the Noru'alk

"I am most heartily in “nor of
the establishment of busses to terri-
tory surrOunding Norwalk. Many
people who are unable to trade in
Norwalk at the present time. will bo
able to do their shopping here. if
the bus lines are established. A
bus running to Green: Farms
through Saugatuck would bring sev-
crai to the city. who now go to
Bridgeport. Such lines would also
be a great help to many people
working in this city and. rvslding in

“Bus service to the outlying dis-

they are not able to reach the city

”A bus line running down. the
Boston Post road to Darlen. would
bring many people to Norwalk to do

tit to the residents of the West Nor.

Manager Bayley turned his whole

see that every blessed one of them

Storm Ellis Island
Gateway
NEW YORK. July 21.~Shlps due
to arrive in New York today
will bring the first considerable in—
pouring of new immigration—~mean-
ing the big rush for the belated
quotes of the Johnson bill. Hun-
dreds of Britishers will storm the
Ellis Island gateway when tho ves-
sels of the Cunard. White Star.

But the monthly quotes of 10 per
cent.. as specified in the new law.
instead of :1 per cent.. as allowed
in the Dillinghem act. will hold in;

heil‘d before. Representative Albert
Johnson. author of the law and
chairman of the house committee
oh immigration. was careful to pre-
vent the racing of ships into New
York harbor to claim the monthly
quotas. '
A glance at the old monthly
quotas placed parallel with the 10
per cent. monthly allotments stipu-
lated in the Johnson bill is suffi-
cient to show that there cannot be
any very float rush at Ellis Island
unless the aliens delay sailing sev-
eral weeks. which is allowed ,in the
new certificates. and then come
pouring in all at once. Even then
Commissioner General w. w. Plus-
band. with the approval of Secre-
tary of Labor James J. Davis. may
change the monthly admissions to
suit the occasion.
But. while these new monthly el-
lowancos under the Johnson bill.
bring down to a seemingly neglible
number the monthly arrivals at El-
lis island. it is important to consider
that. the new law also provides for
the crib .. o a great many nonoquotl

KIDDIES’ PARTY

office at seven o'clock. By half past
eight a thousand of them were scat-
tered in th street. bubbling over
with excite ent. But they weren't
scattered long. ‘
Chief of Police Pennington around
in the station house whispered to
officer Stratton:
“Take care of the kids.”
And Office:- Stratton needed no ex-
plantion. He marched right
straight around to Washington
street.
The white-shined majesty of the
law called out:
“Line up on the sidewalk chil-
dren."
And they did it as nice as could
be. It takes a man who knows kid
nature to do that with Just. a few
words. And Officer Stratton did it.
Then as a personal favor Officer
Su-atton hailed a motorcycle police-
man and had him help out. But the
ofiicers didn’t have much to do for
The Sentinel’s children were well-
behaved. Cheporones were stationed
on both sides of the street and kept
everything in apple pie order—that
is the until horns and the flags were
given out. There was a rush. Every
kiddie wanted one or both. “’hen
they had them they went back and
waited for the signal for the trolley
cars.
The Start.
“'ord came at ten o'clock exactly
end-t he kiddies marched of! for the
trolley cars. Old residents declared
they never saw so many children on
“'eshington street bridge at one time
in all their lives and added that it
was a fine thing and they hoped the
Sentinel would take five thousand
DEX! year.
Meanwhile. over at the Mahacke-
mo restaurant. men and women
were working like trojans to get the
food ready. Four thousand sand~
niches! Some job. Cutting a. huge
pile of pies so that the kiddies
wouldn't have to break thorn apart
at the park. Of course the kiddies
could do it but that would be too
exciting. Then. too. this morning
The Sentinel office was crowded with
packages sent in for the kiddies.
Everything was hurried down to the
park so that no kiddie would be
hungry and that there would be
plenty of prizes for the track events.
The sporting editor went down to
take charge of the athletic events.
This year the sporting editor was
foxy. He worsen old suit and an
old shirt and he left his good hat
at home. Lest S'ear he almost lost
his shirt and the kiddies rolled him
in the dirt trying to tell him who
won the different events and de~
mending their prises. There were
so many kiddies in the races last
year it was hard to tell who won--
indeed it was hard to tell who really
entered the races. So this year he
brought his “gang" with him to help
him take care of the races. And in
addition H. H. Longer. supervisor of
the playgrounds in Norwelk. went
along to try to bring the well-known
order out of the equally weibknown
chaos.
Something happened this morning
that was odd. You'd hardly believe
it! Four kids were late for the party.
They arrived after the trolley cars
had gone. Yes sir. Willie Jones.
colored: Thomas Allin‘gton. Anthony
and Vito Federici from the First dis-
trict came into The Sentinel office
about 10:30. They were tearful. sad.
pathetic. disconsolate. discouraged.
tired. Well. to make a long story
short. they were sent down in an
automobile.
There were cheers and smiles for
the kiddies as the twelve trolley cars
came' through Washington street. It
was a great sight. 2.300 of Norwalk
kiddies all together. off for a days
fun. free. ‘not a kopeck did they
need. The met-cheats. Roton Point.
the Connecticut Company and the
Sentinel took care of that.
Every body worked hard. But it
had seen so much happiness in one
was worth it. You'd say so too it you

KIDNAP RUMOR
IS SCOUTED BY
SERE mail
I
I
State Police Still Hold}
to Belief That Seven!
Children Werel
Drowned I
l
l
Belief that the seven children who;
left Fairfieid Thursday afternoon in?
a. canoe. which was later found cap-l
sized near Foyer-Weather Island by aj
Sound tug. were kidnapped was ex-2
ploited throughout Bridgeport yes—l
terday. Rumors have been spread-l,
ing through the city to the effect?
irks capsized canoe
dent of the outcome.
that the children xvi-re picked up by'
a passing boat and carried out toE
sea and the canoe overturned as aI
blind. . . '. }
Acting on the latest theory of}
their disappearance Sergeant Frank!
Virelil of the State Police head-
quarters et Bridgeport has been fol-
lowing the tragedy from a new an-
gle. Sergeant \‘irclll. while tracing
the new lead as much as possible. is
disinclined to place much faith in
it. In his estimation some one
would have probably given authen-
tic information of such action before
this. State Police are of the be—
lief that tbe children. have drowned
and that. their bodiel have either
been washed out to sea or cast up
on obscure stretches of shore either
on this or the Long Island side to
the Sound.
Another belief is that the children
may hare been picked up by a pass—
lng tramp steamer with no radio.
Local police are still combing the
Norwaik shores to see if the sea
gives up its gruesome toll.
That the children have been drown
ed in the heexy seas that broke soon
after their departure is the general
belief. although the stricken family
and the authorities still cling to the
slender hope that through some mir-
acle the boatload has managed to
survive. ‘
The children were last seen about
3:30 o'clock Thursday afternoon in.
the canoe. which they had taken
despite the refusal of the owner.
was discovered
Friday twelve miles from the beach.
Seafaring men find it incredible that
seven children could squeeze into the
canoe and navigate further than the
breakwater without upsetting. '
