Twenty-Five
Year Peace Pact
ClaimePending
Philadelphia Inquirer in Story Says
France, Great Sritain, Germany,
Italy and Poland Agree.
PHILADELPHIA, July 22 (UP)
The Philadelphia Inquirer said today
in a copyrighted dispatch from Wash
ington that it had been informed that
Great Britain, France, Germany,
Italy and Poland had reached a ten
tative agreement to preserve peace
for 25 years.
An American ambassador in Eu
rope sent a copy of the proposed
agreement, expected to be ratified atjfajr They wjI1 be KOne about thirty
a five-power conference within twojdays During that time Uncle Henry
weeks, to the state department, thcjwm ,ook ft th, , home and
newspaper said. A "noticeanie iacK
of information about the probable
meeting place of the conference was
reported.
Under the terms of the agreement,
as reported by the Inquirer, Danzig
will be returned to Germany, but
would remain a free port open to
Polish commerce, and the status of
the Polish corridor would be modi
fied, presumably giving Germany free
access to East Prussia without im
pairing Poland's communications
with the sea.
Other provisions, the newspaper
said, would give Italy representation
on the Suez Canal directorate and
participating rights in the French
owned Addis Ababa-Djibouti rail
road; establish a neutral zone in
North Africa opposite Gibraltar to
insure British sovereignty there;
guarantee the present Franco-Ger-j
man and Franco-Italian borders per-
manently and those of other Eu
ropean countries for 25 years, and
limit armies of the signatory powers
to a maximum of 300,000 men each
for 25 -years.
The Inquirer reported indications
that the agreement might have been
sent to Washington by Ambassador
Joseph P. Kennedy at London or Am
bassador William Bullitt at Paris and
said that the United States, although
not a party to the negotiations, had
been kept informed of their progress.
The text was made available in
Washington, according to the dis
patch, so that "thep rivate and un
official reactions of these responsible
for American forign rolicy could
be learned."
PRESIDENT WANTS CLEANUP
HYDE PARK, X. Y., July 22 (UP)
President Roosevelt dropped back in
to his role as a Duchess county farm
er today to call for a complete clean
up in the county sheriff's office.
The sheriff is Dwipht Sedgwick, a
republican, but the president said his
opinion was not based on party con
sideration. He suggested the house
cleaning as a farmer of the county
rather than as president and said its
method must be determined by the
voters at a forthcoming election.
His remarks made yesterday at a
press conference were based on a
liquor conspiracy case in which thirty
two persons, including three deputy
sheriffs were indicted on charges of
violating federal internal revenue
laws. Twelve pleaded guilty an-1 four
teen ethers were convicted. The gov
ernment charged it was defrauded of
$2,500,000 in taxes by the violations
which extended back to the period
before Sedgwick took office.

went off and she fell down."

and body burns; Mrs. Ethel Allen,

her daughter had been seen leaving
Miss Knowles' apartment. Removed
