Great Britain Decides on Pro-
posaIs to United States.
Willing to Disarm, But Wants
Start Over Here.
TO GO AS FAR AS FRANCE
Geddes Expected to Head Mis-
sion Sent Across.
Will Wait Outcome OF Visit by
Viviani Mission.

Washington, March 26.-Great Bri-
tain has decided tentatively upon the
program she will follow in negotia-
tons to be opened shortly with the
Harding administration. advices reach
ing Washington today indicated.
England in approaching the United
States on Questions of world policy
apparently will observe these deci-
sions:
1. Proposals to the new administra-
ton will be guided, SO far as possible,
by the reaction which follows the visit
here of Rene Viviani, former French
premier.
.. Sir Auckland Geddes. British am
bassador to the United States. likely
will be designated to head the British
mission to Washington.
3. Unless the United States indicates
she is ready to inaugurate a movement
for world disarmament, England may
take the initiative and suggest dis
armament conference.
4. Britain will consent to the elm
nation of Article X from the League
of Nations. but will urge that the main
body of the covenant be retained.
Willing to Modify League.
She will not go as far as France in
modification of the league.
| Adyices are that England will not
send any ENJOYS to this country until
the French mission is completed. She
will observe the outcome of VivianIs
visit hoping to profit by lessons which
may grow out of the Frenchman's con-
| tact with the administration.
Geddes, it is understood, will be
named to head the British mission,
| lest the appointment of a special COM
| mission from London might seem to
undermine the ambassadors position
here. Geddes, however, will be sup
ported by a naval office, a military
man and possibly other aides who will
| be sent from London.
Wants To Disarm.
1t Is reported Britain is becoming in
creasingly eager to open a disarma-
ment discussion. According to advices
| from London, she does not appreciate
the movement in this country to pur-
| sue the naval building program when
Britain has just announced cut in
her naval appropriation.
1t is declared that while England
| would prefer to see a call for a dis
| armament conference come from
Washington, she will not hesitate to
start such a movement herself if il
| becomes apparent the United States
| does not intend to act.
| This sentiment may be conveyed tc
| President Harding after the Britons
completed their formal pleasantries.

MUST KEEP STATIONS OPEN
Public Utility Commission Makes
Ruling in Railroad Case.

LII Lt<1nIOdu SdSS-
Kansas railroad stations must be
maintained and kept open under a
decision by the public utilities COM
mission. The opinion declares that
in some instances the railroads pay
the agents almost as much money as
the gross revenue of the station. Yet
the responsibility to the public is not
relieved by bad contracts, it is de-
clared. The commission suggests
cheaper help as a remedy. -.-
With their revenue cut and slashed
under new conditions. the railroads
sought relief in move to reduce sta
ton agents. They applied to the old
court of industrial relations for per-
mission to close a large number of
stations in Kansas. Similar requests
were presented to regulatory bodies
in other states. The Kansas commits
sion, however, holds that an implied
contract exists and that railroad sta
tons must not only be maintained, but
must be kept open. This service
must be given the public even tho the
agent receives a comparatively excess
sive salary and performs little service.
In the little town of Marmaton the
Missouri Pacific railroad retains an
agent who last year received a salary
of S1,343.S9. Revenues of the station
from all sources amounted to 1.620.-
o. The commission suggests that
perhaps a person can be found who
month. In any event, tho, the rail-
road cannot close its station and dis
charge its agent whether the office
pays or loses money. Similar condi-
tions exist regarding a number OF
other stations

Stimulated by exceptionally mild
weather in February, spring trade has

finds. The moderate temperature
proved beneficial to agriculture on the
many farming communities indicate
apprehension at the possibility of seri-
Gus crop ravages by insects. The in

particularly pronounced this year. I
In II paragraph of the review de-
voted to labor, the situation is charac-
terized as unsettled, due, it says, to
efforts at readjustme emit. Altho some
industries have been compelled to re-
duce forces, renewed activities in
other lines have created new demands
and absorbed large part of the I'M
employed. s.s,-ssss
Further progress has been made,
the review declares, in the direction
| of reduction of the volume of credits.
This has been accompanied by a de-
crease in the aggregate of reserves and
deposits. Nevertheless, the demand
for loanable funds continues heavy.
| No softening of the rates is discerni-
