CANADA SOON TO NAME
MINISTER TO u. S.
Delay, Premier Says, Is Due
to Selecting Best Man.

OTTAWA, April e1.-Deflnite announce
ment Of the Canadian Governments in
tention TO appoint a Minister TO the
United States was made in the House
OF Commons tonight by Arthur Meighen,
the Prime Minister, during debate on
a vote OF 0.Ooo for Canadian repre-
sentation at Washington.
1T Is intended 10 make tine appoint
ment," Premier Meighen declared. There
is one reason. and one only. why the
appointment has not already been made.
and that is because the Government has
not been able TO decide on the best man
to occupy this important post"
"The appointment Is in tho best in
terests Of Canada and OF the Empire"
declared y. W. Rowell. former President
OF the Privy Council IF we are TO be
on the best OF terms with our ncighbors
we must be In constant touch with them
and understand their frame OF mind"
Conflict sooner or later between the
British Ambassador and the Canadian
Minister was advanced as an argument
against the appointment BY w. F. Cock
shut. a Government supporter.

CRAIG FIGURES ON
$26O,OOO,OOOLOAN
Puts Blame of City Shortage
on Failure to Advance Tax
Payment Date.
INTEREST TO BE S2,250, 900
Comptroller Says 1t Will Be
Easier to Get if Mayor Be-
heads Chamberlain.
INTEREST TO BE S2,25O, 900

AS a result of the failure OF the
Legislature to pass the bill he re-
quested, moving the date for payment
of the second instalment OF taxes up
to July 1, Comptroller Charles l.. Craig
said yesterday the city will have to
seek the largest loan ever undertaken
in the history of the New York mar
ket to obtain the funds it needs for the
second half of this year. The total
figure he expects TO have to ask is
$3.50, 900, ,O00 He declared that he has
no assurance whatever that he will
be able to get it.
So serious Is the situation, he said he
is considering asking Gov Miller to call
special session OF the Legislature to
pass the tax date bill.
OF the $3.50, ,000.. the sum of $780,
600, 0c0 is to be borrowed on corporate
stock, and would have had TO be bor-
rowed even if the bill had passed, but
the additional burden imposed by the
failure makes the negotiation Of loans
more difficult. The remaining s160,000,-
900 win be sought on special revenue
bonds to meet the budgetary requirements
after July l. The Comptroller said that,
had the bill passed. 1t would have been
necessary to borrow only $20,00o.0O0 on
special revenue bonds, resulting In a
saving of nearly s2.250.c00 in interest
Should the Mayor approve the bill
now before him abolishng the Office cf
City Chamberlain. the Comptroller said,
It would enable him to negotiate loans
with greater ease. since ne then could
leave the borrowed money on deposit
with the lender until needed.
The Comptroller will address mem
orandum to the Mayor asking his APP
proval of the Chamberlain bill. There
appeared small hope. however, that the
Mayor would agree to legislate his close
friend and adviser, Philip Berolzheimer,
out of Office.
Chamberlain Berolzheimer said that
the only reason the city may have
trouble in getting money Is the schem-
ing OF the Comptroller" and added
"If Comptroller Craig cannot get the
money, can and will"

Gov. Miller sad to-day he would
consider tie sdvasahiity OF convcnns
an extraordinary session OF the Su-
preme Court in New York, IL neces-
sary, to keep pace with the liquor vio-
lation cases now clogging the courts.
1t has not been suggested officially
as yet to the Governor that he take
hold of the situation in New York be-
cause of the situation growing out OF
strict State enforcement of the prohi-
bition law. But the Executive is keep
ing close watch on developments. De-
feat of the State prohibition law will
not be tolerated through breakdown of
the courts.
That In effect, is what the condition
in the metropolis would amount to II
the cases kept piling up by the hum
dreds and the courts were unable to
dispose Of them. Estimates have reached
the Governor that it would take two
years or longer to clear the calendars in
General Sessions Of the booze litigations
now pending.
The Governor said It was natural at
this early stage to overestimate she
gravity OF the situation, and that prob
ably IT would not be found as serious
after the law was more firmly estab-
lished. He was asked whether he would
do anything to expedite the trial OF
cases, and answered.
Il might convene an extraordinary
term of the Supreme Court and assign
justices to help out and clear up the
cases." he replied.

hearty. II only moral. support OF any
reasonable proposal Premier BRAND OF
France may offer.
A report was heard here to-day that
America would be represented In the
Hythe conference. but IL was promptly
discredited in both American and British
circles.
IL was repeated in well Informed cir
cles that the conference would be al
most private meeting between Mr..
LLOYD George and NJ. BRAND TO enable
the latter to put the British Prime Min
lister in touch with what happened in
connection with the German reparations
question while he was absorbed with the
labor troubles.
Not only will Mr.. I.l5yd Georges
policy depend on whether the coal
miners decide to 40 back 10 work, and
thus restore Industrial peace n the
British Isles. when their conference OF
delegates meets here tomorrow, but II
