IL SHINGTON, Jan. 23.-American
C-pita1 will be employed in aiding
Europe "to get back to productive
work." not because of attractive rates
OF interest but to restore normal
conditions and to open markets for

said today, speaking before the second
Pan-American financial congress.

which we do not have" Governor
Harding said, land in order to provide
an exportable surplus we must pro-
duce more, or failing in that, consume
less. During the past year, We have
witnessed an unprecedented era OF ex-
travagance in this country; there has
been a continuous rise in price and
while the value of our products ex-
pressed in dollars has been greater
than ever before in history, the physi-
cal volume of goods produced was less
than the production of any year since
1916. Our domestic demand has been
competing with export demands, and
the result has been that prices have
been bid up on both the foreign and
domestic consumers.

be living since the close of the war in
fools paradise, and that more work,
economy and liberal investment in
foreign securities are necessary if we
wish to make our present apparent
prosperity real and permanent.
1T is important that the world
should get back to work, and in order
to provide steady employment for the
people of our own country even, it is
necessary that there should be a sus-
tained demand for products and in
order to maintain this steady demand.
it is necessary to supply markets
abroad for our surplus production.
To enable Europe to produce things

ernor Harding said American raw ma
terials and equipment must be ex-
ported and the exchange for European
products facilitated.

RICHMOND STACCERS
and SLIPS over ICY,
RAINY PAVEMENTS

1nterurban service was partially par
alyZed, railroad trains were running
late, and Richmond citizens were suf-
fering serious inconvenience from the
sleet and rain storm which fell on
the already slippery streets Thursday
night and Friday.
Interurban service stopped from the
east Thursday night and was resumed
only Friday afternoon. Broken power
lines were given as the cause for the
stoppage. Cars from the west were
late but all were running.
Eastbound trains on the Pennsyl-
vania were reported running slightly
late, but those westbound were on
time. Telephone wires, coated with
ice, delayed service in some instances.
City street cars were seriously ham,
pered, and only one line was able to
operate Friday morning. This line

the afternoon.
Creepers Are Popular.
Folks stayed in as much as possible,
and walked, "cat- footed" when they
went out. Ice creepers which fastened
on the heel became fashionable Fri
day.
Many persons sustained falls, but
late Friday no one had been seriously
enough injured to be taken to Reid
hospital. One girl suffered dislocat-
ed ankle coasting on Methodist hill.
Country roads turned to arteries of
ice during the night, and ruts which
had been worn in the ice covering
the streets, were filled Friday morn
ing.
The rain, which froze slightly dur
ing the morning, fell steadily during
the day. Thirteen inches of snow
have fallen so far in 1920, according
to Walter Vossler at the pumping
station.

BACKERS OF
TREATY SEE
new HOPES
Definite Advancement" is
Announced After Confer
ences Between Democratic
and Republican Senators.
MAY CHANGE ART TEN
(By Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, Jan. 23.-As a re-
suit OF the progress during the past
two days by the bipartisan committee
leaders seeking to compromise differ
ences on the peace treaty, senators
today were more hopeful of settlement
OF the controversy than they have
been for weeks.
Reports of conferees that a decided
step forward had been made in the
negotiations as to article 10 of the
league of nations covenant, the chief
stumbling block, and that definite
agreement on that point might be ex-
pected at the committee meeting late
today revived the activities of the
mild reservationists Of both sides paw
ing the way for acceptance Of the
committees agreement should one be
reached.
Many proposals for changes in the
Lodge reservation on article 10 were
considered yesterday at the confer
ence Of the four Republican and five
Democratic leaders and it was report
ed the Republicans were in a mood
ing the form and language of the
reservation though remaining firm in
their stand against any change in it's
fundamental principles.
One of the proposals by the Demo
Gratis which was said to have received
major attention was along the lines of
the McKellarKend draft. 1t would
declare that the United States as
sumes no obligation to protect foreign
territory by use of her armed forces
or an economic boycott without spe-
cific action and approval by congress
- and reserves the privilege of offering
good offices in adjustment of foreign
disputes.
Regardless of whether the article 10
obstacle was disposed of at the meet
ing today, leaders said the conferences
woud have to extend into next week
in order that other points at issue
could be considered.

Admiral Knight said that in the

Officers whose vessels were tor
pedoed, but who by good seamanship
and discipline, succeeded in saving
their ships, earned the distinguished
service medal, Admiral knight de-
clared.
"It is true that the board recon-
mended award for several of the
officers referred to by the secretary as
commanders of ships which were lost
or seriously damaged by enemy sub
marines or mines,' Admiral Knight
said
But in each case there was a spec

Finland, saved their ships by excel

the ships were disabled"
No information was available to
guide the board in making recommen-

The award recommended for Cap
