NO PRELIMINARY
PEACE CONFERENCE
Plant For Farley at London Have
Been Abandoned by the
Allied Leaders.
tRy the Associated Pressl

LONDON, July 20.It is believed that
the idea of holding preliminary disarm-
ament and pacific conference in London
will be abandoned. Such a conference
was originally proposed by William Nor
ris Hughes, premier of Australia, and
William Ferguson Massey, premier cf
New Zealand, who will be unable to so
to the United States during the autumn
owing to the convening Of their respec-
tive parliaments. A London conference
is supposed also to have been strongly
favored by Japan.
Instead of the proposed preliminary
conference, there will be held mere cor-
ference between the British cabinet min
listers and the dominion premiers. For
this purpose Premier Meighen Of Canada
has postponed indefinitely his idea of
sailing for home. This conference will
be devoted, first to discussion of the
policy and representations of the British
empire, at the Washington conference,
and second, to the advisability of asking
the Washington government to postpone
the disarmament and pacific coafeI ence
to some later date than November IL.

BEER AS MEDICINE
AGAIN DISCUSSED
Prohibition Commissioner Elair
Prepares to Issue Regu-
IatiOns for Sale.
(ey The Associated prsss.l

WASHINGTON, July BOB e
bobbed up again today as a possible
addition to the doctors list Of pana-
ceas for human ailments.
Prohibition Commissioner Blair an
nounced he would issue regulations
covering the use OF beer as a medicine
within the next few days unless il
appeared that prohibitory action would
be taken by congress in the mean
while. Efforts to bring the WSllis
Campbell anti-beer bNl to a vote in
the senate next week were blocked
today by opponents.
Issuance of the beer regulations
have been held up upon the assurances
of Congressional leaders that the new
prohibition legislation would be ex-
pedited Blair said, adding that the
regulations were on his desk awaiting
signature.
The new regulations for the manu-
facture and use of beer for medical
purposes are understood to make the
case the unit for prescriptions but
without any limit as to the number
of prescriptions which may be written
or obtained on the theory that At
torney General Palmer held the guam
tity of beer or the number of prescrip-
tions might be limited but not both.
Regulations for the use of wine as
medicine are understood to permit two
quarts to be prescribed at one time.

URGES NEED FOR
FORESTRY POLICY
Governor Hardwick Would Cont
pei Cutters to Replace
Destroyed Trees.
(Ry The Associated Press.1

ATLANTA, July 20.-"Citizens who
cut down trees should be forced to put
trees in their places" Governor Hard
wick declared in welcoming the third
southern forestry congress which
opened its sessions here today.
The necessity of taking steps to pre-
vent the souths forests from being de-
nuded was stressed By all speakers,
in a letter from President Harding,
and in a paper by Secretary of Agri-
culture Wallace who was unable to
be present.
Henry E. Hardner, of Urania, La,
president of the congress, declared IN
his address that taxes and fire have
been the chief obstacle in the way of
reforestation. Should it be necessary
to send to the middle west and the
Pacific coast for lumber to be used
in the south?" he asked.
Il am glad today" he added, that
most of the southern states are taking
steps to remedy their forest difficult
ties and to restore waste forest lands .
Other than to appoint a committee
on resolutions the congress transact
ed no business today, the meeting be-
ing given over to addresses and the
late afternoon to visit to the "Wren'a
Nest" home of the late Joel Chandler
Harris.

mediate points on their lines than they
charge on the longer haul into the val

resentatives said, is hauled through the
southwest into the valley and if they are
made to reduce their rates to their in
termediate points proportiona.ely to low
rates in the valley they would be forced
into bankruptcy.
A. P. Hamburg, for the Mississippi

WASHINGTON, July 20.-The un-
derstanding reached by the Wilson ad-
ministration deferring interest pay
ments on loans made by the United
States to allied nations win be binding
upon the present administration, Sec
retary Mellon stated today to the SEN
ate finance committee. The secretary,
however, did not disclose the policy
which he viii pursue in making col
iections and advised the committee he
had reached no agreement with any Of
the debtor nations on the subject.
The present situation, which the
secretary called embarrassing, was
caused by discussions in 1919 between
Former Assistant Secretary of the
Treasury Albert Rathbone and Mr..
Blacklett, representing Great Britain,
with the result thai tha understand
