Later, she said. Cherry came In. ?nd aubsquently they all went out Into the yard, engaging In an ar gument. but apparently settling their differences and shaking hands. Both Newbern and Poyner were drinking she said, adding that Newbern was considerably more nnder Ihe Influence of liquor than Poyner waa. Then, according lo Mrs. Cherry, they began arguing about the wo man with whom Newbern was said to be on Intimate terms, and pres ently the Cherrys' little aon threw a quantity of dirt Into Newbern's face.

June 1. ? Whether to ^accept the Arperlcan definition of armaments promises to oreupy at least two days of the discussions 'of the military sub-committee of [the preliminary disarmament con I ference. I The committee started executive sessions Friday and agreed to post ' pone organization of special groups to consider land, sea and aerial phases until later. The com mittee plunged Immediately Into the task of getting a definition i of armaments, which It proposes i to reduce. All eight representatives of the American Army and Navy were present, under the leadership of I Rear Admiral Hilary P. Jonos and Major General Dennis K. Nolan. Admiral Jones presented the Am erican viewpoint defining arma ment as follows: "Armament Is the organised military forces of a country, In j eluding reserves, with their ma Jterlal and installations actually In existence." Under the procedure adopted by ,tho committee, the military repre sentatives of each of the twenty nations participating In the eonfer I ence are expected to give their def initions of armament. These gen erally are expected to accord with J the views expressed by the repre , sentatlves of the various nations | at the plenary sessions, though : they now will be stripped of their 1 political aspects. All the military representatives are agreed that It Is Impossible to limit war time armaments. Ev ery nation Is certain to mobilize . all available resources In rase of war. Therefore limitation Is pos sibly only regarding peace time ! armaments. Beyond that common starting I point, the delegates do not agree to what constitutes peace time ar maments. The American theory considers only those armaments 'Actually In existence. Great Brl I tain advances the name definition. 1 Another group of countries, led by ! France, extends the definition to Include Industrial plants and fac tories capable of conversion for war purpose*. The American definition of sol diers, reserves, equipment, guns and ammunition actually In the possession of the Government In cludes arsenals, naval bases, and all plants actively producing war materials of any kind. On the other hand. National resources, whether of wealth or population, while Important, are not arma ments in the sense that they can be limited. While general staff take Inlo consideration In estimating a na tion's war potentialities. Its Iron and coal mines, steel mills, chemi cals. cotton, railroad and river trsnsportatlon. agricultural re sources and ability for Industrlsl mobilisation. U Is not possible to reduce theke factors and equalize them for peace time purposes. France Is not dogmatic In op posing the American definition, hut Indicates that when the next . phase of the discussion is reached.
