Poor Jock Soutar. In the diguifed

the fact remains that in the two whitl-

Republican A. p. Leased Wirel

WASHINGTON, April 5.- Rene Viviani, envoy extraordinary Of France, was the guest of President and Mrs. Harding at a dinner in his honor at the White House tonight. Ambassador and Madame Jusserand also were present, as were Vice President and Mrs. Coolidge, Speaker and Mrs. Gillett. Secretary and Mrs. Hughes, Senator Lodge. chairman Of the foreign relations committee; Rep resentative Porter. chairman of the house foreign affairs committee: Un- der Secretary and Mrs Fletcher. and Myron T. Herrick of Ohio, who has been mentioned as the next ambaSsa- dor to France. In a statement to the Associated Press today M. Viviani indicated he had not yet abandoned the treaty of peace as basis of dis cussion with American officials in connection with his mission of pre- senting the cause of France and sounding American public opinion on foreign policies. He is understood to be vexed by attempts made to in terpret the conclusion formed by him during his conferences with govern ment officials, representing in his statement that no one was authorized to speak for him but himself.
 In presenting the viewpoint of France regarding the unfavorable re- action which the declaration of a separate peace by the United States might have on the relations of France with Germany, the envoy is under stood to have held that he was not exceeding his mission which he has stated was that of presenting the cause of France to America

PARIS, April 5-Premier Briand paid tribute to the loyalty of the United States in resisting "insidious overtuyes by Germany" in the senate today and served notice that II Ger many continues to resist payment Of reparations after May l, France will lay a strong hand on her neck. Henry De Jouvenel, chief editor of the Matin. who preceded M. Briand, de clared that if President Wilson had intervened at the end of July, 1914, he could have prevented war.
 He pleaded with the premier to ask the United States that in case it decided later to consider resump- ttion of business relations with Rus sia, France be admitted as a party to the negotiations to protect the interest of the French people. He added:

Determines To Come Back

LONDON, April 5-Prior to his de- parture from Steinamanger, former Emperor Charles expressed the con- viction that he would return shortly and he was determined to do all in his power to bring about such a change of view in Europe as to make this possible, says the Steinamanger correspondent of the London Times. He drew up the following declara- ton:
 His Majesty leaves because of his conviction that the moment has not come for him to take over his right Of governing. He cannot permit maintenance of his right to entail disturbances in the present state of peace. He leaves as the crowned King ot Hungary"
 Discussions continued throughout the night between the advisers re- Sarding advisability of Charles mak- Ing determined resistance. the dis patch adds, and with the aid of his troops. who he was assured wouId be faithful, proceeding to Budapest to take over the government.
 Colonel Lehar, one of Charles principal supporters, has resioned rom the Hungarian army outwardIv on the ground of ill health and is sharing the sovereign's exile. A cheering and singing crowd sent the king away.

IRepubIIcan A. p. Leased Wirel

LONDON, April 5-Premier Lloyd George, replying in the house of com mons today in the debate on the coal declared what all wanted, was to arrive at pacification in a very dangerous dispute, if it could be done in a way compatible with the interests of the nation. He contend ed, however, that substituting a great industry out of taxation was wrong in principle and indefensible, espec- ially at the present time, in view of the heavy taxation and the condition of the exchequer.
 He recalled that the loss before March 31, on government control of the mines was more than f1.000,000 weekly.
 The premier would not express an opinion as to whether the wages were adequate or inadequate. as. he pointed out that would cripple the governments effectiveness in any ne- gotiations.
 The government would be willing. he continued, to undertake anything it could do in promoting an under standing between the miners and owners, but it was essential that the miner should give every facility and assistance to prevent the pits from being destroyed.

Suggests Norway's Claims
 Go Before Hague
Republican A. p. Leased Wirel

WASHINGTON, April 5.-Sug- gestion that Norways claims against the United States for ships requisi- toned during the war be adjusted by arbitration before the permanent court at The Hague was made by Secretary Hughes April l in a note to Minister Bryn of Norway, here, it was learned tonight. A special Nor wegian commission is on it's way here to reach a settlement of the claims.
 Chairman Benson of the shipping board explained tonight that an al lowance of $14, ,157 900 was made by the board for a number of contracts for ships under constrdction in this country for Norwegians, which were taken over during the war and com pleted. Norway, however. it was said, expressed dissatisfaction with the amount contending allowance should be made for the speculative value of the contracts, due to the increa sed price of tonnage during the war.>The board refused to accept the argument and referred the question to the state department.

SOLDIER RELIEF BUREAUS ID BE SUPERVISED BY |0NE EXECUTIVE
Republican A. p. Leased Wirel

WASHINGTON. April 5.-Progress in solving the governments problem of caring for ex-service men, whether sick or disabled or physically fit but having financial claims to be ad- justed, was made today at the first meeting of President Harding's spe- cial commission heading by Charles G. Dawes of Chicago. It was agreed that the administrative machinery operating separately for soldiers re- lief should be constructed under one central authority, probably new ex- ecutive officer who would be respon- sible to the president
 Heads of all soldier relief bureaus said they favored the general idea of a constructed service bureau. The endorsement, Chairman Dawes said. promised quick solution of the prob lem as 1t related to the general ad . ministration of aid for men alleged to have suffered under the system of divided governmental responsibility Among those who expressed general endorsement of the plan were Sur geon General Cummings of the pub lie health service, who said. he would be- willing to bring his service under the plan, so far as it's work with sol diers is concerned: R. H. Hallett acting director of the war risk bu- reau, and Uel Lamkin. director oi the rehabilitation division of the fed eral board for vocational education
 MT. Lamkin also favored placing the public health service completely in charge of the proposed new ex- ecutive head. to the exclusion of al but soldier work.
 Brig. Gen. c. F. Sawyer, who ap- peared as the presidents persona representative. declared empha ticall, that the public health service should be retained as an entity. He wa: supported by others of his profession l Chairman Dawes, however. expressed the belief that this service could b' placed under the one directing heat without endangering public health. ! It was stated authoritatively tha the commission would complete it investigation and present the result to President Harding in the middl l of the week.
 Dr. T. w. Salmon of the Rocke feller institute told the commission one-half of the governments build iings were unsuitable for tubercula
 cases.
 We know there are 4oo0 such pa
 tients," he said, 'and 5000 menta
 sufferers who are without treatmen
 by the government because they re
 fuse to go into charity and state in
 stitutions."
