On behalf of the American Peace | Society, centenary arrangements are in* charge of President Burton. Vice Presidents David Jayne Hill and Jack- j son H. Ralston and Secretary Arthur i Deerin Call. The centenary is to par- I i ike of the character of a monumental j round table on world affairs. Ques tions directly bearing on the United Slates' affairs will he conspicuous. In their discussion distinguished Amer icans from all walks of public life will participate. The society announces that "an ex change of views and a clearing of minds” will take place, for example, j on these purely American issues: \Vhat is adequate national defense j for the United States? What should be the policy of the [ Government of the United States on j the question of disarmament? Should the Government of the j United States be urged to negotiate • further treaties embodying the prin- : ciples of arbitration, conciliation, etc.? j Is military training in the schools and colleges of the United States de- j airable? What can he done to establish co- j operation among the various peace organizations in the United States? (There are now more than 100 or ganizations with Independent budgets, many working at cross purposes). In what way may real peace work ers effectively combat un-American propagandists who are dominating ' end influencing some peace organiza tions. and are active in schools, col leges, churches, clubs, etc.? Should the American Peace Society renew its efforts for the calling of the third Hague conference for tbs re statement and codification of itft*ma- 1 tional law? International Realm. In the. international realm, as dis- - tinguished from the field of more ex clusively American questions, the i centenary program will embrace these i paramount and far-reaching subjects: j * What can be done toward the ulti- j mate outlawing of war? What steps should be taken to! bring about a uniform policy among 1 nations respecting protection of in- i vestments for the development of backward countries? M. Briand. foreign minister of France, will lead the discussion on the outlawing of war. Jgist Spring M. Briand proposed to Myron T. Her rick. American Ambassador at Paris a treaty between France and the United States, designed to outlaw war between them The scheme lias lain dormant in the interval, pending the jet urn to their respective posts of! Mr. Herrick and of M. Claudel, j French Ambassador in Washington. J The French foreign minister is wel] remembered in Washington from the time of his eloquent leadership of the French delegation at the Wash ington armament conference in 1921. Sir Austen Chamberlain will moke his first appearance in the United , States as British foreign minister. j Dr. Stresemann. German foreign see- ; rotary, has never visited this country. 1 His presence here will excite interest ; from many standpoints. Next year will be the crucial 1 period of the Dawes reparations pinn. i when Germany’s annual payments j w ill )>e enormously increased. There ! are many signs that the Reich pro- j .loots an impressive demonstration of j Germans’ incapacity to bear the S reparations burden henceforward in- j osirnbent upon them and will seek a j sweeping revision of the Dawes plan. Stresemann was recently described in j . "Washington by H. Wickham Steed, j British editor, as the spearhead of | the drive to bring about a “United j States of Europe” for common politi- j . cal and economic action. Success Is Assured. Dr. Arthur Deerin Call, secretary j the American Peace Society? says - j • “The importance of the Cleveland j centennial is assurari. The American j public, when it learns of the brilliant j names thut already adorn the accept ance list, will agree that it an interesting galaxy of world fi*r : ures. Briand, Chamberlain and 4 Stresemann are better known to out .pfiople than some of our other visi t<>rs, but the latter include men no ]ejw potent in the affairs of their j toi-n countries and of Europe. ;VDr. Nansen, now a professor in J the University of Oslo, though most j famed as an explorer, is in fact on<* j of Norway’s foremost international statesmen.

FUND FOR AIRPORT S REPORTED DENIED _______ I I j Budget Bureau Said to Have Eliminated Item for Gravelly Feint Field. • Reports that the Bureau of the j j Budget in secret hearings on the Dis- | ! trict budget had eliminated the $150.- ! 000 asked by the Commissioners to : start work on the proposed municipal j airport at Gravelly Point brought I neither confirmation nor denial from j Brig. Gen. Herbert 11. Lord, the bu- j reau director, yesterday. Gen. Lord declared that the airport appropria-I tion was still under consideration with j other items asked by the Commission- j ers. The Commissioners expect to be i ; notified of the bureau’s decision this j week when the estimates are com- j I pleted. Pending the establishment of an air- j port.the War Department has eon-j sented to the use of Bolting Field for contract air mail planes on the At- { lanta-.N’ew York line which will start j March 1. This permission was given j only after Assistant Secretary F. Tru- i hoc Davison had been assured that definite steps would be taken toward the establishment of a permanent mu nicipal port and the Commissioners had requested the Budget Bureau to approve the § 17*0.000 appropriation for the work. Just how the reported action of the i Budget Bureau in blue penciling the ! item would affect this arrangement could not be learned last night. ' Warren 1. Glover, second Assistant Postmaster General, in charge of the air mail service, hopes that Washing ton will retain its place on the New York-Atlanta division. He -said the j Pitcairn interests will be unable* to i inaugurate the service before March 1. j Ample Time for Action. “This should give the District ample time to persuade Congress to include an appropriation for the temporary use of Bolting Field until a permanent airport is established.” said Mr. Glover. "Otherwise, it is most likely that Baltimore will have to be desig nated as an official stop on the route. It is m.v understanding that the War Department agreed to permit the use of Bolling Field as a temporary land ing place only on the condition that Congress appropriates for a perma nent local airport.” The terms set forth by the War Department for the use of Bolling Field followed a long series of nego tiations between Assistant Engineer Commissioner Coveil, Lieut. Donald . Duke, his .aide in airport matters, ami Mr. Davison. Mr. Davison stated the 1 terms governing the restricted use of the Army Flying Field after the Commissioners recommended the air port estimate and after the committee representing Washington's three trade organizations had pledged their i support. - , Mr. Glover stated yesterday that the inaugural date of the New York- Atlanta Air Mail Service had been set back owing to difficulty with con tracts for completing the beacon lights to mark the route for night flying. As a result of this delay, work ing to the advantage of the District in the light of present circumstances, there will he enough time to bring | pressure to bear on Congress to make ! the necessary appropriation for a j permanent airport here. Cost Placed at $765,000. According to estimates prepared by Army Engineers, the total cost of con structing an airport at the Grtivell.v Point site on the Virginia side of the river below Highway Bridge would be $765,000 if extended over a five-year licriod. This estimate would provide a class A field 3.000 feet long l»y 3.000 feet wide. Included in this estimate, j it is understood, is the cost of con- | structing the necessary hangars and j offices. | The burden upon the District tax- j | payers, if the whole expense is to lx- j i divided equally between the District j and Federal Governments, as pro- ' posed, would amount to approximately 570.000 a year. The District Commissioners, at the time the budget estimate was sub mitted, drew up a bill for the action of Congress proposing that the initial | payment of $150,000 for the work : on the airport he "chargeable, one half out of the revenues of .the Dis trict of Columbia and one-half out of i moneys in the United States Treasury ! not otherwise appropriated.” i Selection of Gravelly Point as the j airport Kite followed a light that j ■ threatened for a while to split wide j i open the ranks of the various cit-! \ izens' a social ions and the three trade organizations. Proponents of the' | Penning tract site, who threatened j : to take their fight to Congress, even- j ! tualiy lost out when Maj E. It. !

This same band pl ayed “The Star Spangled Banner" earlier during the review.

Thousands who had gathered for the■ ceremonies I.in Jersey City trooped through the liig tubes, preceded by the widows of two engineers who died before their work on tlie tunnel was completed. Notables Take Part. At one minute ‘after midnight to night the tunnel will be opened, to commercial traffic, an event bringing realization of the dreams of Clifford H. Holland, its designer, who died in 1023. Gov. Smith of New York, Gov. Moore of New Jersey, several mem hers of Congress and Rfii mayors took part in Ihe program at the Jersey City terminus. Mayor Walker and officials of the Tunnel Commission conducted ceremonies on New York side. ! A note of reverence marked the speeches for Air. Holland, Milton 11.

Question Raised by Police. The question whether the railwav terminals are in the Distrii . Or the State of Virginia was raised by Maj. Hesse when he received a report from Capt. Maurice Collins of the Seventh precinct explaining that tno proprie tors of the terminal concessions had failed to procure a license from the superintendent of licenses of the Dis trict. hut were paying a fee to the Old Dominion authorities in obedience to a decree ot the State Supreme Court. The Virginia authorities, on the other hand, it was pointed out. had inform ed the cohcessionares that they would have to apply to the District for police protection. “An opinion has been requested from this office as to whether the license tax law of U>o2 is applicable to certain places of business local* d on the South approach to the Francis Scott Key Bridge ‘jurisdiction and control’ of which is given to the Commissioners of the District of Co lumbia by the act of February 28. 11*23, and complete jurisdiction of which whs assumed on November 21. 1924.” Mr. Bride’s opinion read. Lies Beyond Boundary. “It appears that the approach to the bridge lies south of the high water mark on the Virginia shore and as such is within the territorial limits of the State of Virginia and is located upon property acquired by the Federal Government for Federal purposes. As such it is not within the District of Columbia. “Thus the businesses referred to are not being conducted within the ter ritorial limits of the District of Colum bia. and not liable to the license taxes provided for in the above act referred to.” When advised ’of Mr Bride’s opin ion. Traffic Director William H. Hat land said he would confer with in spector E. W. Brown, in charge of the Traffic Bureau, to discuss with him the advisability of removing the “no parking" signs. Consideration also will be given to the withdrawal of po lie, men detailed at the south end of the bridge during the afternoon rush hours to protect passengers who cross the roadway from the Capital Trac tion Co. terminal to the Washington & Old Dominion Railway station. COLD WAVE TODAY NOT TO LAST LONG Temperature Due for Rise, Fore casters Say—Capital May Miss Frost. While Washington may he wearing its mittens today, it’s not because Winter himself has arrived, for it was only his press agent who blew in out of the Northwest last night to lower the Capital’s temperature to the vicin ity of ae degrees this morning. Better still. United States Weather Bureau forecasters said last night that the pompous subordinate will flourish about town today, tilting off hats, nipping noses and ankles and making himself generally mischievous, only to scamper away again some time tonight. While here, he isn’t even expected to leave his hand-bill of frost but is looked for to make only a windy announcement that. r<j»>n. Winter will come. Tomorrow, the weather man says. Washington wiir be hidden under fitful clouds while the temperature, low today, slowly rises. But some one isn’t taking the identi fication of today’s visitor in very good faith, for when the Weather Bureau announced the cold weather for last night and today, that skeptic promptly stole a furnace from the basement of 1611 Connecticut Fred Dor sey. the janitor of the building, ex plained to the police yesterday aft ernoon, that the heater was an old one. dismantled to make way for the new equipment now functioning at the Connecticut avenue address, and that it Was taken under a ruse by men thought at the time to he those who were to have removed it a month ago. - ■ DIES FLEEING FIRE.
