WHITE MUCH IN EVIDENCE
American Delegate to AIgeciras
Trying to Bring France and
Germany together,

AIgeciras, JAN 23.-Henry White,
American ambassador to Italy and
head Of the American delegation to
the Moroccan conference, is making
the weight of the United States felt in
quiet endeavOrs to bring France and
Germany nearer together before the
disputed questions arise in the confer
ence. These questions cannot be long
delayed, as the consideration Of eco
nonic and financial reforms in Morocco
will begin next week
It has been impossible for the United
States to take the lead in seeking a
way toward an agreement that shall
guarantee to all countries an equal
footing in Morocco and yet recognize
in some respects the special position of
France. 1t is a difficult task, but all
the governments except those directly
concerned are assisting in it because of
the danger Of the situation should the
conference fail Of settlement. Great
Britain is acting entirely with France
and is not disposed now to ask France
to modify her views. Italy, however.
IS the ally of Germany and the friend
Of France, and Russia as the ally of
France and the friend of Germany. are
trying to effect a compromise.

requiring a president to report to a
vice president, and added:
II did not know until yesterday of
the success of the movement to secure
a conference with the anthracite oper-
ators. and I do not know what de-
mands the anthracite miners commit
tee will make. The demands have not
been formulated"
Mr.. Lewis replied that he thought he
was worthy to be taken into the con-
ference of the organization when the

it: Draw thy sword and kill me, that
men may not say e, woman slew me-
Without for a moment desiring to be
captiouS; without wishing to make any
unpleasant comparison, one is con-
strained to wonder if Abimelech did
not pick out II. H. Rogers as his deadly
armor-bearer and to wonder further f
the sarcasm which he fiourished az
Missourfs attorney general may not be
the blade by which AbImelech shall
die"
He continued: What the present
moment demands is not that Mr. Rog-
ers and the owner of the corner peanut
stand be put on an industrial level, but
that Mr.. Rogers be made to respect the
law and that the absurdly dispropor-
Tomato difference between aim and the
peanut vender be removed, insofar as
that difference is the result of Rogers
enjoyment of legal privileges and i'm
muntties which the peanut man does
not enjoy"
