Newberry was seated as a Junior senator from Michigan by a resolution adopted by a vote of 46 to 41 in the United States senate.

BOBBER KILLED IN HOLDUP French and British Premiers Want to Return to the "Old-Fashlbned" Way of Bottling Disputes Between the Nations. Starts, Jan. IT.--M. Polncare, wfro has accepted the premiership to succeed M. Briand and completed his cabinet, engaged in a lengthy conversation with the British prime minister, who came to Paris from Cannes. WThat conclusion the heads of the two governments reached is not known, but M. Polncare, in a statement to the correspondents, declared "international questions henceforth will be settled, as heretofore, through ambassadors." This, in the expressed opinion of the premier designate, would mean the virtual disappearance of the supreme council, although he added: "There must be one final meeting of the supreme council, to which all the allies should be Invited, should the French viewpoint prevail, and I have good reasons to believe that It will so far as Great Britain Is concerned. Let us have our ambassadors settle these questions for us." M. Polncare thought" there had been too many meetings of the supreme council, to various accompaniments, and he declared a return to the oldrashloned way of dealing between nations. "My meeting with Mr. Lloyd George," he said, "was most amiable. We got along finely together." The conference turned out to be quite a success for the new French premier, according to the French view, is he apparently convinced Mr. Lloyd George that It would be construed by the French natton as unfortunate, and by himself as inimical to him personally should Mr. Lloyd George meet 2X-Premter Briand and Doctor Ratheoau, ttie German representative. In consequence of this, M. Brland's visit to the British embassy was merely a social function. He had a cup of tea with Lord Hardlnge, the' British ambassador, and a brief informal talk with the British prime minister. Mr. Lloyd George did not meet the Germans. The British premier came to Paris with ratification of the policy of a moratorium for Germany tentatively granted by the reparations commission but met with strong opposition from M. Polncare, who argued that Germany had not paid to the limit of her capacity and that some reason must be found for lightening France's burden. He told Mr. Lloyd George that Germany should be called upon to impose heavier taxation, equivalent per head to the French, otherwise there could be no talk of a moratorium. After a conference with M. Barthou and other supporters, lasting until midnight, M. Polncare announced that his cabinet had been definitely, formed as follows: Premier and minister of foreign affairs-- M. Polncare. Justice and Xlsace-Loralne--Loxtfs Barthou. Interior--M. Maunoury. Finance--Charles de Lasteyrie. War apd pensions--Andre Maglnot. Marine--M. Ralbertl. Agriculture--Adolph Cheron.

WafclJftt&fon, Jan. 18. -- AsWrftiif that the more than 3,500 m.entally disabled former service men now placed in state Institutions were victims of stich "gross neglect, Indifference and profiteering" as constitute a "black reproach on the honor of the nation," the Disabled American Veterans of the World war, in a memorial presented to President Harding, urged immediate action by the government looking to the treatment of all such cases in federal institutions, Neglect of these coses in state Institutions, the memorial said, is committing to permanent insanity many of the victims who by timely treatment probably could be cured. Describing the condition of "contract cases" of this class in the Institutions of the state oi Ohio as typical of those in ."practically every state," the memorial asserted that the government had farmed out the Insane exservice men of Ohio to state asylums which are notoriously overcrowded. For example," the memorial said, "in the Longview asylum of Hamilton county, Ohio, there are 42 gallant soldiers who broke down mentally under the stress of war, although Longview Is so overcrowded that 240 of the in mates sleep on the floor like cattle every night-" * Of the 250 mentally disabled placed In all the institutions of the state, of whom, it was said, physicians believe half might be cured by treatment, not one, the memorial asserts, was receiving "medical treatment of any kind for the mentyl diseases and curable cases are being doomed daily to permanent insanity." None of the institutions, it was further asserted, segregate their tubercular putlents. An average profit of $300 on each patient out of the $547,500 annual maintenance fee paid by the government was shown in ligures for the nine In-' stitutions of the state cited In the memorial. During the two years or more before federal facilities could be Increased to take care of all cases, the memorial urged that "Infinitely more rigid supervision" of "contract" institutions be provided by the veterans' bureau, and that to co-operate in (bis an independent commission of former* serv ice men be appointed in each state.
