FRANCE TO ASK ADJOURNING OF WORLD PARLEY (Continued from First Page.) standard until it is sure that stand ard will work. The resolution was before the sub-committee on permanent monetary affairs There was an interesting development when, through the intercession of Sena tor Pittman, James P.

Warburg, who. is advising the Americans in technical matters, was granted the courtesy of speaking from the floor although he is not a member of the committee. It was Mr. Warburg who told the committee bluntly that America would not accept the gold standard again until certain that it was workable. France Presses for Gold.

Mr. Warburg's declaration pre sumably was drawn out by the fact that France and other gold bloc nations had immediately pounced on one clause of the Pitt-man resolution as giving them a chance to further their drive to force America to revert to the gold standard and to stabilize exchange. This is clause two, which pro vides "that gold should be reestablished as the international meas ure of exchange values." Viscount Hailsham of Great Britain a government which takes an attitude similar to that of America regarding the return to gold intervened and asked that this clause be amended to leave it to each country to determine time and parity" In connection with going back to gold. Six countries Germany, Italy, India, China, Mexico and the Irish Free State tendered full ad herence to the Pittman resolution, while numerous others. Including Britain, Brazil, Czechoslovakia, Portugal and Uruguay, agreed on the broad principles.

France, through Jean V. -Far- mentier, expressed entire accord with the part, of the resolution calling for stability in the International monetary field and with the clause providing for reestablish-ment of gold. France also was ready to study the silver question but considered other parts of the resolution so novel that it wanted to know more about them before accepting.

Release of Andalnsla Ma Is Recommended Along With Verdict In Coanly Coart Case.

Along wtlh a veTdlct finding four Andalusia young men guilty of disorderly conduct, a jury In the Rock Island county court handed to Judge George D. Long today a recommendation, signed by all the Jurors, asking that the court grant probation to the defendants. Those found guilty are Raymond Howard, Eugene Simmons.
