Apparently the Only Way Out is
for Japan to Renounce De-
sire for Island.
COUNCIL is LIEN T
Enemies of Publicity Succeed in
Closing Meetings to All
Outsiders.
(sy The Assoeiated Pressl

PARlS, Feb 24.--The secrecy of the
proceedings OF the council OF the league
today provoked lively speculation as TO
the effect of the American note upon the
different members It became known
when the fun text of the note was
made public today that the United States
in addition TO making reservations with
respect to the Island of Yap, attributed
to Japan as mandatory, claimed m
equal concern and interest with the
other principal allied and associated pow
ers in the disposition of the overseas
possessions of Germany.
The theory has been advanced that
the only possible friendly solution of the
question again brought to the forefront
by the United States would be for japan
to say that she did not insist upon the
mandate for the Island of Yap, and
would be agreeable to the internationali-
zation of zap under Japanese supervi-
sion.
Thus far the Japanese government has
not committed itself. and the general
impression is that the whole matter
must go TO the supreme council, the
members of the council of the league
being unable in any event to take a de-
cided position on question Of inter-
national policy without approval of
their governments
The adversaries of publicity in con-
nection with the proceedings of the coun--
Gil succeeded today in hermetica1ly clos
ing both morning and afternoon sessions.
Very little leaked out through indiscre-
tions as to details of the discussions, and
no official communique was issued The
mere announcement was made this eve-
ming that the council had continued to
consider the Polish Lithuanian conflict

COAL CONTROL
BILL APPROVED
Committee on Rules Unanimous.
ly Recommends Its Imme-
diate Passage.
SAYS CONGRESS HAS DUTY
Measure as Modified Would Pro-
vide for Publicity of Coal
Profits.
(Ry The Associated press).

WASHINGTON, Feb. 24.-Greatly
modified in form, the Calder coal reg
ulation bill was sent to the senate to-
day by the committee on rules with a
unanimous recommendation for pas
sage at the present session.
All provisions in the bill for federal
control and operation of the coal in
dustry during emergencies and all tax
proposals aimed at elimination of ex-
cess profits in coal dealings were
stricken out by the corqmittee ses-
sion but requirements for full and
current publicity on coal mining costs
and profits to be gathered by the fed
era1 trade commission were left in
tact.
The committee inserted a section
requiring the federal trade commits
sion whenever in its general reports
it found instances of extortionate or
excessive profits taken by coal mining
corporations to make Individual and
corporate names available to the pub
lie and to report them individually to
congress. Further sections added
would require the commission to COM
pile data on contract sale of coal,
while the geological survey is author
lied to compile full current reports on
coal production, stocks and move
ments.
The report of the committee said
the bill was mot" offered as a COM
plete legislative solution of the prob
lem of preventing "a recurrence of
the deplorable conditions to which the
consuming public has been subjected
more especially during the past year"
THE committee finds" the report
added, that no cause constituted
either justification or legitimate ex
cuse for the great advance in prices
which occurred" which the evidence
clearly shows was participated in by
operators, wholesalers and retailers,
and aggravated by the entrance of a
horde of spectators. 1t is fair to say
that not all operators, wholesalers or
retailers increased the prices unduly.
Many operators, particularly of the
larger class had a large proportion of
their output under contract prices pre-
vailing prior to termination of the
fuel administration.
The report concluded with the as
sertion that congress has a manifest
duty at this time" to bring about pub
licity of costs and profits in the in
dustry and to declare that coal is a
basic necessity charged with a pub
lie interest and use"

FORDNEY BILL
BACK in HOUSE
Battle Scared Emergency Tar
iff Measure is Reported by
Conference
DUTY PLACED ON SUGAR
House Overwhelmingly Defeated
Proposal Before and May
Repeat Action.
(sy The Associated Press).

WASHINGTON. Feb. 24.-Dlfter-
ences in the Fordney emergency tariff
bill as it passed the house and senate
were smoothed out today by confer
ence committees of the two branches
of congress and the battle Scared
measure was sent back to the house
for final action.
Although the bill has a parliamen-
tary right to consideration tomorrow
it was deemed unlikely that it would
be called up before Saturday. Some
of it's enthusiastic supporters, how
ever, may compel earlier consideration
in an effort TO hasten its arrival at
the white house and enable an at
tempt to override the presidents veto
if such is necessary.
AS the bill went back to the house
it carried a flat rate of 2 cents a
pound tariff on the ordinary house
hold brand of sugar The senate
amendment whicA was considerably
higher was slashed to pieces in the
threatened deadlock of the conference
and a new rate. in substitution for
the present tariff on sugar was ac-
cepted by both delegations. The pro-
posed tariff therefore, amounts to a
doubling of the import duties on sug-
ars of all grades, making Cuban sugar
pay a duty of $1.60 per hundred
pounds, and a similar rate on mo-
lasses and kindred sugar products.
While agreeing to the tariff on sug-
ar, the house conferees stood pat on
a refusal to permit tariff on hides
and leather products. They likewise
forced reduction of fifty cents per
pound from the rate fixed in the SEN
ate amendment on certain classes OF
tobacco. The senate rate of four cents
per pound on cherries was compro-
missed at three cents per pound, Some
differences in the provision, original
ly in the bill, for duty on rice COM
PEELED rewriting of that portion with
a flat rate of one cent per pound on
all except cleaned rice and rice used
for the manufacture of canned foods.
There was speculation tonight
whether the house would coiscer in
the agreement of it's conference COM
mittee on the sugar duty. Three at
tempts We're made, it was recalled to
put sugar on the list when the bill
was put UP in the house and all were
voted down overwhelmingly. Several
members of the conference committee
said privately there was no reason to
anticipate a changed verdict this time
although many members are eager to
get a tariff measure through that will
give relief to the farming interests.
