WASHINGTON. Sept 5.-Iamcs ". For
gan, chairman Of the committee Of bankers
appointed to consider a plan of action to
meet the cxigencics OF tho domestic and
foreign exchange situation handed the
commuters report to Comptroller John
shelton Williams to-day Mr.. williams
accepted the report ana announced his
Intention OF laying 1t before the Federal
Reserve Board at Its meeting on Tuesday.
Neither Mr.. William nor Mr.. Forgan
would discuss the character OF the re-
port, but it is known that the plan reoom-
mended is, along the lines of that outlined
In THE SUNS despatch this morning.
The committee recommends. the creation
~ gold fund through the cooperation of
the banks OF the country to meet the de-
mands OF Europe growing on; of the trade
balance against the United states.
just what details the committee has
recommended for the creation of this fund
has not been disclosed definitely, but the
plan Is based on the broad priucipl, that
tho banks Of the country must stand to-
g"th"r In the present emergency and
through their united efforts clear the for
eign exchange situation In such a way AS
to permit the United States TO 20 forward
and take advantage OF the unprecedented
opportunities now knocking at its doors.
At last nights conference the commit
tee was seriously considering the crea-
ton OF this fund through "A syndicate
underwriting to be participated In by
banks all over the country. The amount
of the fund was said 10 be about $780,
100000 This Is probably the form which
the committee relief plan suggests.
The only other suggestion was Tor the
creation of gold fund through less
formal procedurr-the organization of u
pool by the banks Of the country with the
same object In mind.
IL was learned to-day that considerable
opposition developed at yesterdays con-
ference at the Treasury Department,
when the suggestion of cooperation by the
banks in the matter ~ raising a gold
fund was drst laid before the gathering
There was a disposition on the part Of
some bankers to complain that the burden
was chiefly New Yorks and that the New
York banks were seeking 10 distribute Il
90 other parts Of the country.
Before the conference was over how
ever. nearly all the bankers had come 20
realize that the question of adjusting the
foreign exchange situation was necessary
10 insure the beneficial returns which the
United States as a whole should receive
from the present situation
The bankers committee in its cortmunt-
cation TO the reserve board have also
outlined their Views as to what should
be done by the Government to assist In
conserving the gold supply. The COM
rnittep which made the report IL composed
OF Mr.. Forgan. Benjamin strong, Jr..

pany Of New York; l.. l.. Rue Of Phila-

suffered the most and that the peril was
still very real there.
But 1t was also agreed that the allies,
working together. would eventually tri-
umph. It was then. at the suggestion
OF Sir Edward Grey, that the agreement
was drawn up which binds the allies to
make common cause together to the
very end.
II Is believed here that this agree
ment. will serve to permit France and
England to have the final say in any
peace negotiations should the German
armed forces be crushed. II has been
suggested that Russia might demand
that Austria Hungary be turned over 20
her intact after the war Now. how
ever, II will be possible for England
treating with France on the one hand
and Russia on the other. TO insist on a
basis OF settlement that will not disturb
the balance Of Europe in the future
The official announcement that tn.
agreement was made was issued by the
official war bureau at o'clock thi,
afternoon. II was couched in simpl,
language and said
Sir Edward Grey and the French ant
Russian Ambassadors this Afternoon
signed mutual agreement on behalf OF
their Governments pledging the allie.
not 10 conclude peace with German,
separately during the war When peac,
Is finally concluded the allies undertake,
to make no Individual demands without
a previous mutual agreement"
II was also pointed out that as a re
suit of this agreement. even though
France should be conquered by the Ger
mans and completely overrun by them
It would be impossible for the French
Government to negotiate peace with
Germany on an individual basis.

president of the National city Bank. the
basis Of the plan agreed upon inWsshing-
ton to arrange for gold payments to adjust

II was not present at the conference In

mittee of bankers, headed by James Il.
Forgan. president Of the First National
Bank OF Chicago. in reporting to-day to
tho Federal Reserve Board and to the
Comptroller OF the Currency looked to the
different reserve districts to furnish some
certain proportion Of the gold required. a
proportion that would bc fair In compari

New York bankers heard last night
that the Western delegates to the wash
ington conference are pressing for an i'm
mediate opening OF the Federal reserve
banks.
Albert H. Wiggin. president of the
Chase National bank and chairman of the
Clearing House Committee. and Benjamin
Strong. Jr,' president OF the Panbers Trust
Company. who attended the conference IN
Washington. declined yesterday TO discuss
the decision OF the conference.
They said that the news must come
from the Federal Reserve Board or from
Secretary McAdoo. II is well founded
belief among bankers here. however. that
arrangements have been made TO rals'
enough gold among the reserve districts
TO clear up the foreign exchange situation.

 The officials of the New Haven road have not, as yet notified the depart rnent of justice that they will no long CT continue the plan. for dissolution agreed upon some months ago. The ppssfbility that the road will recon s1der it's attitude and accept the legds- 1aHaon is entertained here.
 It Is the Intention of Attorney Gen era1 oacReynolds to reply to the reso.. lution by stating that the legislation passed by the Massacnusetts legisla- ture is in entire accord with the dis solution agreement As soon as this reply is received by the directors of the. road, 1t is believed that sufficient pressure will be brought to bear upon them to agree to the terms laid down tH the legislation and turn over the sock in the Boston & Maine road, now held by the Boston Railroad d Kidding company for the New Haven with the understanding that it shall revert to the state of Massachusetts whenever that commonwealth sees fit to purchase it.

ALASKAN VOLCANOES
 ALL IN ERUPTION

Seward, Alaska, July OAn the volcanps along the AIaslzan Penin- sula west or Seward to the Aleutian Islands are in action according to a. report brought by Capt. AEcAduIlen of the steamship Dirigo9 which arrived yesterday from Dutch Harbor.
 Capt. McMullen said Mount Kat mai, the great volcano on the main land across Shelikof Strait from Ko- rdiak Islands was throwing out great volumes Of sulphur laden smoke. The sea, he said, was discolored byA sul- phur dust and pumice for a distance of 100 miles Mount Shishaldin and Mount PavIof the most activs vol canos in the Aleutian Islands were smoking when the Dirigo passed them.
 Capt. McMullen reported that the natives living along the Alaskan Pen insula said the great clouds of vol canic dust hurled into the air last month were caused by volcanic erup- tions and not by old deposits of vol canic ash stirred up by a terrific windstorm as previously reported by passing ships.

DOGGERAL HYMNS FULL { or JJNTRUTHS, DECLARES
 METHODIST PREACHER

Chicago, July 1o-That modern church hymns were nothing more than doggereI was a declaration made to- day by the Rev John Thompson. speaking before the Ministers Forum at the fifty fifth annual camp meet ing of the Methodist Episcopal church.
 .4The time has come when more attention should be paid to the hymns sung in our churches" said pr. Thompsons We are singing a good many hymns which are nothing more than doggerel. They would be just as good sung backward. Many of them are full of theological ntrl1tha, If a. preacher preached the heresies sung in many of these hymns he would be rushed to trial and theolog- tca1ly decapitated.
 s'AlI great religious leaders, such as John Wesley, Martin Luther and others, knew the value of good hymns. They put true religion into their hymns. Our church hymns should be sublime sentiment instead of doggerel It is time to drop empty sentimentality and return tu. the gospel in our music.''
