st. Louis, Mo-, Oct. 22.-The visit
of the King and Queen of the Bel

counter attraction to the scheduled
second days session of the Invest

had conferred with the King about
prospects of payment.
One of the most Important pa
pers, a report covering the status

situation made by a committee
headed by Allen b. Forbes, an in

ed many recommendations concern
ing the future disposition of the

u. s. TOURISTS
WISH FOR COAL
France Cold and Damp; Paris
as Badly Crowded as
During the War
By G.sceiated Press.

Paris, Tuesday. Oct. 22.--Amer-
lean tourists who have recently
reached Paris wish that they might
have brought their own coal supply
with them. October has been un-
usually cold and damp but there is
an official prohibition against the
use of coal for central heating pur-
poses before November 1, so that
only those hotels which have been
able to obtain a supply of wood are
heated. Most Paris hotels have no
coal.
Travellers just arriving from Ber-
lin and Vienna say that prices there
are much higher and heat is lack
ing.
Paris Crowded
Although it was believed that
Paris hotels would have an abun-
dance of rooms for all comers aft er
the departure of the armies of AL
lied war workers. Paris seems just
as badly crowded as at this time
last year and tourists were walking
the streets, seeking accommodations.
Paris Is still filled with refugees from
the devastated areas and from coun-
tries upset by war, accounting for
the great demand for shelter.
Apartm and boardinghouses
are as badly crowded as the no.
tells. and the demands upon the limit
ed amount of fuel far exceed the
supply. A centrally located hotel
now charges 25 to so francs daily
for single rooms without heat

francs per basket when available

count curtailing the supply for no.

heating will necessarily be limited
even after November 1.

vations, which he presented to the
Senate, for printing under the title
of suggested compromise reserva-
tions" is printed below:
It was revealed that the McCum-
Der draft of the article ten reserva-

some point in all negotiations for an
agreement, follows very closely a
draft which former President Taft
recently suggested to Senators Nc
Cumber, Kellogg, Republican, Min
nesota; NcNary and Colt, Rhode
Island, Republicans, and which they
submitted to Republican Leader
Lodge. The text of the new Taft
reservation, together with one drawn
by him. regarding voting power in
the League became public last night
for the first time. The reservations
by Senator McCumber are:
WITHDRAWAL
THAT the United States

article one that in case of notice
of withdrawal from the League
of Nations, as provided in said
article, the United States shall
be the sole judge as to whether
all it's international obligations
and all it's obligations under the
said covenant have been full
filled.

Mandate For Either
Armenia or Turkey

Constantinople, Sunday. Oct. Ia
The majority of the members of the
Harbord mission, which has been
investigating conditions in Armenia
and -Caucasia, have indicated
to the Associated Press correspond
ent their opinion that it would be
inadvisable for the United States to
accept q mandate for either Ar

If the United States does accept a
mandate it should do so only after
the interested European powers had
fully agreed to pursue a hands off"
policy.
Major General ]. G. Harbord, the
head of the mission, would express
no opinion on the subject.
The civilian members of the mis-
sion are the ones who take q diff
ferent view, at least SO far as Ar
menia Is concerned. Their feeling
was indicated that America should
