SAN FRANCISCO, May 14.-Victory Liberty loan committee officials ex- pressed the belief here tonight that final returns from the twelfth federal reserve bank district. expected within "A hours, would show that the district loversubscribed its quota of SSO1, ,5OO,- coo. Actual bank returns up to to- night, they said, showed subscriptions amounting to approximately sSOO,OOO,- 900.
 San Francisco's subscriptions to the loan were tabulated at $7O,O0, 900. While loan committee officials were unwilling to predict that the final count will put this city over it's quota of $79, ,31S,15O they were more optimis- tic particularly in view of the fact that thousands of subscriptions had not yet been tabulated.

 TO COFFERS OF STATE

PHOENIX, May 14.-At the first oi a series of conferences of heads of departments directly under the gov enror's control, held Saturday and Monday, steps were taken to reduce the cost of administering these branches of the states activity, it was announced at the governors office.
 "The idea of these conferences, g said Governor Campbell, 'is by frank criticism. by the different department, al heads of each others work to cut down expenses to the absolute mini mlIn at the same time give the state the best possible service"
 Verbal reports, backed by his own personal investigation, revealed, said the governor, that all the institutions under his direction are being ably ad- ministered.
 During the conference the affairs of each institution or department were taken up in turn and when each oPOhCoLAoh he10 S1NCA o1CCOUAI Ol his stewardship, he was bombarded with questions and subjected. to con. structive criticism.
 The governor denied that there was any political significance attached to the gathering, adding that it was sim ply called in an. effort to give the people better service for less money.
 The institutions and departments represented at the conference were:
 State hospital, insane; state super intendent of health; commission of state institutions, state engineers, superintendent of prisons, industrial school, game warden, state sealer, library, sheep sanitary board, pioneer home, Northern Arizona Normal school, state veterinarian, state ex. aminer, state fair commission.

NEW YORK, May 14.-FederaI eus. toms collectors and appraisers from all parts of the country, assembled here in convention, discussed today the problem of getting increased pay, speakers emphasizing that wages are not uniform at the several ports.

U. s. SENATOR'S SEEK REFERENDUM VOTE ON
 LEAGUE OF NATIONS
By Milton BrOnner
N. E. A. Washington Bureau


 Senator Chamberlain, Oregon demo crat, approves a national referendum on ratification of the peace treaty and the league of nations.
 Chamberlain says: ''This league and peace treaty combined are so important and far-reaching that we ought nOe to take the ipse dixit of the president or senate upon the sub ject- I say this, although personally I am now inclined to vote for the league, as most of the objections originally made to it have been reme- died.
 "Our action upon this league is the most important thing the country has been called upon to decide since we adopted our federal constitution. The only drawback to the referendum plan that I see is the matter of delay The president probably will get back here some time late in May with the league draft. Suppose some such law for a referendum as has been suggested were introduced. There would be the same discussion of the project and the same pealousy that the surrendering prerogatives that the league debate will bring out. The bill for the refer endum would probably not be passed until some time in Judy and the act ua1 referendum would not be had un- til August. This would be very ser ious postponement Of action.
 Personally I believe a nationwide referendum would show the people in favor of the league. They would not pause to consider highly technical, but none of the less important, mat ters like the future of the Monroe doc Urine, the effect upon immigration regulation, and kindred subjects. They would simply see in the league a brave attempt to make an end to wars.
 T believe in the referendum be- cause I would like to see the people take the responsibility for settling this question. In the long run I think collective opinion is more often right than individual opinion, and if the people go wrong it is their country"
 Senator Harry New, republican from Indiana, said: ''If a referendum is feasible and can be taken without undue delay I am for It. I have just returned from speaking in my home state. I addressed meetings in ten cities, and found the mass of the peo- pie opposed to the league. Based up on what I saw and heard believe h. diana would vote against the league.
 -'I was opposed to the draft crigi- nally brought back by the president and said so. I have not determined by course with regard to the amended draft. I am reserving judgment. I want to hear what the best legal minds inthe country say as to the meaning of some of the sections.
 From my mingling with the people I am convinced that is not a partisan question. It is, of course, political in the higher meaning of that word, but that is far different from parti- san. think we all want to take counsel together, and for that reason I believe a referendum would be help ful to the senate when the time comes for it to make decision"

A new chamber music organization
to be known as the New York Trio,
Clarence Adler. pianist; Scipione Guidi.
violinist, and Cornelius Van Vlios
'eelist, will soon become part of this
city's musical activities. The members
have all been identified with well
known ensemble organizations-Mr
Adler with the Hopping Trio Mr.. Guidi
as concertmaster OF the New Sym
phony Orchestra. and Mr.. Van Viiet
as solo celiist Of the same orchestra.
The New York THO Will give its first
concert on Monday evening, Deem

The Zimro Sextet of Russian instru-
mentalists will give concert at Car
negie Hall on November L, This or
gnnization appeared at a concert at
the Waidorf-Astoria earlier in the au-
tumn- The purpose of the seXtet is
to raise funds for the encourageme mt
OF Jewish art and letters on world
tour. The programmes will feature
little known Jewish folk music.
Aubrey Yates, who will give his first
recital in Aeolian Hall, Thursday eve
ming. October 90, comes from a family
of publicists, dramatists, actors and
writer's. His forefathers were cronies
OF Thackeray and Dickens. Indeed, his
grandfather in London was the first
to dramatize Dickens's novels. An
uncle. Edmund Yates, the English nov
ellst, was for several years London
correspondent for 1.-THE New York
Herald" and was the first to send a
cable dispatch to this country.
Walter Damrosch and Pierre Mon
teux have solved the problem Of un-
necessary duplication Of the orchestral
works presented at their respective
concerts. During his witt in Paris last
summer Mr.. Damrosch suggested a
plan to NJ. MonteuX, &c, arding ~ which
the home orchestra sends its pro-
gramme scheme to the visiti.g con-
ductor at the earliest time possible.
This enables the visiting conductor
to avoid duplication, and should
result in mutual concessions made in
a friendly spirit. Mr.. Monteux was
heartily in sympathy with this plan.
and practical result of the arrange
ment is already seen in the fact that
/ nj. Monteux courteously withdrew his
performance of the d'Indy Third SYM
phony for his November visit to New
York, because Mr.. Damrosch had al
ready announced it for the same week.
In turn Mr.. Damrosch will pay Bee
thoven's Fifth Symphony on Sunday
afternoon, November 9, instead of the
I'd, as announced, as M. Monteux
wished to perform the latter at his
concert of November 8.
