HARDING SAYS
DIFFERENCE IN
VIEWS TRIVIAL
President Again Explains His
Statements Interpreting
Meaning of Treaty
ENTAGLEMENT DENIED
Declares No Alliance Will Be
Negotiated; Is Confident
Lasting Peace Is Near

WASHINGTON. Dec. 23-(By the
Associated Press) President Hard
ing. in formal statement today. de-
clared that the difference of inter-
probation which have arisen over the
four power Pacific treaty are to his
mind ''unimportant."
Declaring that an unjustified effort
had been made to magnify his differ
ence of view with the American dele
gates regarding the treaty. the presi-
dent asserted that he was more than
satisfied" with the work of the dele
fidence.
The presidents statement, which
was delivered orally and then formal
ly given out. follows:
The president will offer no COM
ment on the disputes which attempt
to magnify the differing construc-
tions on the four party treaty To
him, these are unimportant. The big
things aimed at are UNDERSTANDINGS
for peace and an agreement to meet
and discuss the preservation of peace
whenever il is threatened.
Denies Secrecy Charge
I'No alliance or ENHANCEMENT is
thought of; none will be negotiated.
II would be better to rejoice over the
things accomplished than to dwell on
differing views which can be of no
great consequence.
"The president is unwilling that the
unjustified charge that the United
States delegates are withholding in
formation shall go unchallenged- He
had full confidence, alse he had not
chosen them: hence he has full con-
fidence now and is more than graft
fled over their efforts, because they
are working out the greatest contri-
button to peace and good will which
has ever marked the Christmas time
in all the Christian era.
1T is one thing to talk about the
ideals of peace, but the bigger thing
is to seek the actuality. This, the
conference is doing. in harmony with
an overwhelming American sentiment
and a world settlement. too, and in
full accord with cherished American
traditions"
Confident of Outcome
Replying to the question: DO you
feel that the world has made great
progress in the direction of peace and
good will?" President Harding said:
81 THINK / mdue SOIle SuCH IePiy ~
n similar question at the last inter
view. | do think so. / believe 1t with
all mp heart. | do not say that with
the thought of arrogating to the Unit
ed States of America any greater part
of the contribution than which has
been made by other nations of like
importance and like civilization. But
il seems to me that in 1921, as we
have come to know more fully the
aftermath of the war, as we have
come to appraise the unspeakable
cost of it all. there is new conVic-
ton in the hearts of men that that
sort of appeal-the appeal to arms
to settle international questions, is
futile thing and that We are unworthy
of our position and unworthy of the
blessings which fall to a righteous
civilization if we do not find some
means for righteous adjustment
without appeal to slaughter and waste
and all the distresses that attend.

Utilities Board Hopes to Main tain Jurisdiction Over Intra- state Rates Without
 Right of Appeal
By FRED H. GoRMLEY Montgomery Bureau. The Age-Herald 22l-2 First National Rank Ruilding


 Montgomery. April 1S.-(Special )-Ala- bama will make it's final stand against the policy of the interstate commerce commission of controlling intrastate rates and charges when the railroads ap- pear before Examiner Hosmer of the ir- terstate commerce commission here April 2l in support of their petition of the imposition of a surcharge of 50 per cent on all intrastate Pullman tickets in Alabama. The public service commission denied the railroads petition and they appealed to the federal board at Wash ington.
 Hugh White, assistant attorney gen eral will appear before the examiner in opposition to the petition of the railroads and will contend that as the public serv- ice commission has already held the pro- posed surcharge to be unreasonable, the interstate commerce commission should not impose it upon intrastate travel in Alabama. .
 State officials doubt that the states fight will have much weight as the in- terstate commerce commission has or dered that imposition of the surcharge in other states after the state commis' sions had denied it. The railroads con tend that the charge is reasonable, as they are put to great additional expense in hauling Pullman cars, which arc solely for the accommodation of those who are willing to pay an additional charge for comfort and convenience.
 Examiner Hosmer has been ordered here to receive the testimony of the rail- roads and those opposed to the sur charge He will make his report to the interstate commerce commission, which will render the final decision.

 As proof that France is able to do her part in reconstruction of the worlds business, MT. Viviani cited report he had just received from France that last January, for the first time since the war. his country's exports exceeded her im- ports.
