ANE ERICAN AND
 NORWE CLAN IN
 CLOSE CONTEST.
Student from Missouri and Army Officer Lead for
 Olympic Prize
OLYMPIC STADIUM, ANTWERP.

OLYMPIC STADIUM, ANTWERP. Aug 21-The title of the worlds best all around athlete lies tonight between Erastus K. Hamilton of the University of Missouri. and Captain Helge Loveland of the Norwegian army, who were well ahead in the Olympic decathlon. So few points separated them that a recount of the points all told will be necessary which is Jhe better man, but it ap- pears that the Norwegian has a slight advantage in the ten events.
 Whoever is awarded the cup do- mated by the late Russian emperor, which Jim Thorpe had to forfeit at Stockholm to Weislander of Sweden in 1912 because of the charge of pro- fessionalism, there is so little differ ence that both Hamilton and Love land may be justly proud of their a"rels
 Although Loveland failed to score single first, he made equally good time with several others in the dash est and his performances in the jump, pole vault the 1500 metres and the shot put and discus were so consist ent he obtained second. third and fourth. He thus apparently outpoint- ed Hamilton, who won first in the shot put and the 100 metres and did we'll in the broad jump, the javelin and discus, but got only seventh in the 150O metres and eleventh in the high jump.
 At the finish of the 1500 metres, the tenth event in the two days, Hamilton fairly staggered into the arms of friends and was assisted off the field.
 In addition to Hamilton's bitter two Aays battle to defeat LoveIand, other American athletes made an ex- cellent showing during a cold, raw eighth hour competition in the events. Six places for 21 points were cap- tured in the three finals today. These consisted of first and second in the 56 pound weight; third and fifth in the 5000 metre walk and fifth and sixth in the hop, step and jump.
 As a result of today's wins. Amer ica's points total 179, more than twice the total of any of the three nearest of. the competitors. who are punched as follows: England 67; Finland 65: Sweden 63; not including the de- cathlon.

Principles To Rule Deals
The general principles for the con.
sortlum have been summarized as
follows:
That no nation should attempt tc
cultivate special spheres of influence
That all existing options held ty o
member of any of the national rrouns
should, if practicable, be turned ove1
to the consortium as a whole.
lhat the four banking crouDs oi
tho countries in question should act
together as partnership created in
the interest of China
That the operations OF the consor-
tium should deal primarily with loans
to the Chinese republic or to province
OF the republic, or witt. loans guar
anteed or officially having to do with
the republic or it's provinces; and in
each instance Of character sufficient To
warrant public issue.
when the consortium finally come
INTO being it is said that Belgium NAV
be invited to join.
Inc original four-group consortium
composed of banking groups from tn =
United States, Great Britain. France
and Germany, was formed in 1909. and
through 1T one Chinese loan, the impe-
RAJ Chinese government s per cent
Hukuang Railway sinking fund gold

10, ,000, 200, nominally about 100000 600.
and one-quarter of the issue was Mace i
IN New York, London, Paris and Ber-
lin. 80 '''" oo1
IN 1917, the consortium was enlarged
to admit Japan and Russia. Secretary
OF State Bryan in 1913 announced thot
the state Department was unwilling to
give It's support further to an Amcri-
can group IN the consortium. For this
reason. the American gr,up withdrew,
ana when the war came the consortiuro
ceased to function
Change Made in Policy
NeVerai years later the State Depart
ment lndlcated that change of policy
had been decided upon, and approved
the formation of an American groun
to Join an international consortium.
The State Department then proposed
to the governments of Great Britain.
france and Japan that new inter
national consortium be formed along
the lines Of an effective partnership
to aid the Chinese republic in it's pub
lie affairs. AS result, the meeting
IN Paris was held last May.
Besides lending money to China, it
is likely that the consortium will
undertake to reorganize China cur
rency and taxation systems.
Mr. Lamont will sail from Vancouver
on the Empress of Russia on February
l9. He will visit various parts of
China, too, and will study conditions
there, and on his return report to the
American group on the opportunities
and needs.

their declarations that the country does
not want it and that it would be politi-
cal suicide for many members in anv
way to appear to be ndorsing it or even
to sidestepping the issue.
A telegram was read to the caucus
from Representative Scott Ferris. of
Oklahoma, chairman of the Congress
sional campaign committee, asking that
he be recorded against universal train
ing.
All Pleas Rejected
Representatives Doremus, Small. of
North Carolina; Fisher, of Tennessee,
and several others argued that the
caucus should support the President
and at least defer action to later day,
when the subject might come to
point in the House where members
might be forced to vote upon it any-
way.
Despite these pleas, the view pre-
vailed that since Republican leaders
have come out strongly in opposition
to universal training, it is up to the
Democrats in Congress to let the coun-
try know where they stand, even to
the point OF openly disagreeing with
the President. Most of the speeches,
just as most of the votes, were against
universal training.
After the Doremus substitute was
beaten, representatives Ayers, Gard
and Humphreys, Of Mississippi, who also
proposed modification of the original
Ayers proposal, got together on the
resolution finally adopted Representa-
tive Griffin, of New York, suggested q
resolution putting the caucus on record
as against the Senate army reorganiza-
tion bill or any other measure contain
ing universal military training fea-
ture, but this was rejected, and the
adoption Of the Ayers resolution fol-
lowed
