RADIO MONOPOLY CHARGE HITS GENERAL ELECTRIC rAaxrlatol mm Lsunl Wm.l NEW YORK. Oct. 20. World wide ramification of the General Electric company was described today at the Initial session of the hearings Jnlo charges of the feder al trade commisaion that the Ra dio Corporation of America and associated companies comprised a monopoly in violation of the anti trust laws. They represent a total capital of nearly two billion dollars. The General Electric was shown to bold Interests In hotels, amuse ment parks, chain groceries, fruit growing companies, ship lines and other enterprises of widely varied nature. such are consumption and cancer, the epilepsy and rupture cures: the female weaknesses and weak men cures; cures for fatness and leanness: the quacka who will fit glasses on no other data than your age and abHItv to pay the bill and the faker who will aweeplnglv promise to cure deafness of what ever origin. "Quacks may be divided Into two general classes: Those who sell a more or less elaborate bet worth less course of treatment and those Who dispose of trivial, worthless, often dangerous devices at exorbi tant prices. "Virtually all of these widely ad vertised cures are sheer mdlral fakery. The testimonials, bulletins, and other paraphernalia are usual ly made from whole cloth." PACT REGARDED AS PROMISE OF LASTING PEACE War Not Outlawed, but In Future Rows Reason Will Prevail. 7 COUNTRIES SIGN UP England and Italy Pledged to Force Any of Other Five to Observe Agreements. (AaoclitH ha Uunt Win.) LONDON, Oct. 20. London awoke to find emblaxoned on the front pages of the newspapers the text of the momentuoua decisions reached at Lorcano, which virtual ly make further wars In Europe Im possible. The security pact guarantees In violability of the Preach, Belgian, and German frontiers. There are also six treaties between Germany and France, Belgian). Poland and Siecho Slovakia and between France and her eastern allies, Po land and Csecho Slovakia. Germany is to set up machinery for the arbitration of disputes which cannot be Ironed out through ordinary diplomatic handling. The engagements between France and Poland and Checho slovakia provide that if Germany shall have recourse to arms against any of the three countries, they shall Immediately go to the aid ot one another. j The treaty of mutual guarantees by Germany, France and Belgium stipulates that Germany must never Invade the toil of France or Belgium or attempt to create war In the demilitarised Rhine lone, while on their parts. France and Belgium engage never to violate Germany's western frontier. If either one. of the countries should violate the pact, it would be the duty of Great Britain and Italy to lend aid to the aggrieved party. . War Not Outlawed Arbitration ot all disputes Is necessary. None of - the agree ments outlaw war. It is clearly stated that In some circumstances war Is legltimatlsed but the treaties seek to evade war as far as possible, and prevent it from arising. Nowhere to today's papers are the treaties hailed aa absolutely securing future peace of Europe. They are described as a "promis ing attempt to return to the old family party of Europe and to ar range quarrels on the basis of reason." Confidence Is expressed by the Writers that the treaties will re ceive the ratification of the vari ous parliaments concerned, espe cially in view of the fact that they cannot be amended. By some writers It Is foreseen that the German' nationalists pos sibly will be able to overthrow the ministry of Chancellor Luther. President Coolldge's hint that the United Statea would be willing to do something more toward limi tation ot armamenta Is regarded In some quarters as among the most important results of the Locarno negotiations. The Westminister Ca xette urges the European govern ments to give serious attention to the president's hint. Allies to Leave Germany. LONDON. Oct 20.

(This serves to corroborate un official expressions msde In Paris yesterday, based on the Interview there between the British Foreign Secretary. Austen Chamberlain, and the French Premier, M. Paln leve). The authorities In London expect that Germany, taking advantage of the terms of the pact, will shortly hand to Great Britain a report on conditions In the Cologne area, af ter which It Is anticipated the British government will, order the removal o fits (.000 occupational troops to other areas held by the allies along the Rhine. Great Britain will not withdraw from the Rhine, It la stated, but will continue to be represented with the French and Belgians as long aa troops are kept on German soil.
