 In addition to the customs experts who Chairman Penrose said, merely were carrying out instructions of the Republicans in drafting changes in valuation sections, Secretary Hoover was before the committee today. The latter suggested that an amendment should be added which would take care of the countries whose currency has depreciated badly. The customs experts had been heard extensively in open sessions, according to MT Penrose.
 Under the assessment plan, accept ed by the, Republicans, the compar- able wholesale selling price provided i in the house bill as a basis remains i the same. Its scope however, is limited in the respect that where nc i article of commerce in the United uct is to be found, the American
 wholesale selling price of other com i parable foreign commodities is to be

DEAD MAN'S FIANCEE AND ARTHUR BURCH CHARGED WITH kENNEDY'S MURDER
IRepubIIcan A. p. Leased Wire1

LOS ANGELES. Aug. II. = Mrs. Madelynne Obenchain of Los Angelo s and Chicago, and Arthur c. Burch of Evanston, Ills, were indicted late to- day for the murder of John Relton Kennedy, their classmate at North western university.
 / Mrs. Obenchain, who was with Kennedy when he received the shot gun charge that tore away the back of his head and caused instant death. had been held as a material witness almost ever since she reported it to passers-by few minutes after it oc- cured last Friday night.
 The indictments were returned be- fore Judge Sidney Reeves of the superior court, who had been re- quested by the grand jury to remain at the hall of records to receive a report after his usual court hours. Judge Reeves took the bench a few minutes later and remanded both prisoners to the county jail. to be .arraigneds Monday. Bureh was arr rested late Sunday at Las Vegas, Nevada. while on his way to Chicago.
 Kennedy was killed as he stood on the steps of a cottage in Beverly Glen, a suburb. Mrs. Obenchain, according to the story she told of ficers, stood at the head of these steps and saw two men, who she said spoke with a strong foreign accent flee the scene.
 The indictments today bring to a focus the few glimmers of evidence that at first were seen about the shooting of Kennedy. which have been reinforced and increased from day to day as the officers have pa tiently followed out and untangled the many peculiar threads of circum stances interwoven into the case.
 Airs. Obenchain, who is the daugh- ter of a Los Angeles woman and whose father is dead. ran hysterical- ly down to the road leading from kennecy's little summer home ir Beverly Glen late last Friday nigh and told two passing men that MT Kennedy had been shot. They looked at him. saw he was beyond help ant took Mrs. Obenchain in an automo. bile to the Beverly Hills police sta. ton, several miles from the scene There she told officers that Kennedy
 had been shot down by two roughl,
 dressed men who had evidently wait ] ed in ambush and who had fled b,
 automobile.
 | When Burch and Mrs Obenchai
 were taken back to jail after the in dictments had been received the lat
 ter collapsed. Burch appeared down
 cast but retained his composure | The court said he would hear tn
 arraignments Monday.

 Within less than an hour after the receipt of a telegaphic appeal from the woman he had given up because of her admitted love for Kennedy, Obenchain had closed and locked, his law office and was preparing to rush to her defense in answer to his pledge that he would aid her in her hour of need.n

CANCELLATION OF ALLIED WAR DEbT|NTEREST
 MAY BE URGED
Republican A. p. Leased Wirel


 WASHINGTON, Aug. 11-Ameri- can producers may be forced to urge cancellation of interest charges on the allied governments debts to the United States, Governor Strong of the New York federal reserve bank, told a joint congressional commission today. in concluding a prolonged de- fense he has made before it of the reserve systems operations. He ex- pressed no direct opinion of the pro. posed cancellation, but declared that the economic structure of the country depended upon foreign marketing of surplus raw material, that extension of further credits to foreign buyers would not help. and that foreign ex- change quotations which necessarily were influenced by German repara- tions payments, had further compli- cated the difficulties of American ex- porters-
 "The international payment of a given sum in dollars to the United States cannot be used both to reduce debts and interest," he said. and at the same time buy goods. Isn't it of the greater advantage to the United States that the purchasing power Europe is able to develop be used to consume surplus American goods. rather than to pay interest on debts This is a question of policy for con- gress, with which I have no con- nections or concern, but I am going to ask you to consider it in connec- tion with the fact that our export market for farming products is of the greatest irnportance.'
 Members of the commission pressed Governor Strong to give his opinion of the result Tn case the debts and l interest on foreign government loans l should be collected, but he replied that while there will be a natural result. it is not necessary to dis cuss it.

heading 1t is expected special atten- tion will be given to the use of gas, dissemination of disease germs over enemy lines and similar questions. The number of principal delegates to be sent by each participating nation is not suggested in the note. In- formal negotiations regarding the size of the. delegations and proceed ing. however. with indications point ing to an agreement that each nation shall have five seats with the priv tlege of substituting whatever per- sonnel may be desired from time to time 10 cope with specific subjects. A similar arrangement obtained at the peace conference at Versailles.
 Summons Republican Leaders
 While the official invitations vera on the cables, President Harding turned his attention to a survey of sentiment in the senate, which has a joint responsibility with the executive in foreign relations. He summoned to the White House Senator Borah, Republican of Idaho, author of the resolution requesting the calling of disarmament conference, and in a conference of more than an hour went over the foreign problems generally as they are likely to affect the atti- tude of the American representatives in the conference
 One subject understood to have re- ceived special attention at the con- ference was the proposal for free tolls for American coastwise ships at the Panama canal. MT. Harding Is said to have expressed no objection to the Idaho senator's proposal to press his bill for such a provision but at the same time is understood to have I. ~r<xxx kl,rS d d1v,lr a negotiations now proceeding on the subject should be carried forward without interruption
 No Secret Diplomacy
 Senator Borah is said also to have urged the president to avoid any ap- pearance of secret diplomacy in con- nection with the disarmament con- ference. Administration officials have held, however, that although public opinion must be brought be- hind the work of the assembled dele gates to assure their success. the question of public or open sessions IS one that only the conference itself can decide.
 The text of the official invitations to Great Britain and China were made public late today at the state department That to Great Britain which was identical with the notes sent to France, Italy and Japan. ex- cept for the insertion of the respec- tive names of the powers addressed, follows:
 Text of Invitation
 "The president is deeply gratified at the cordial response to his sug- gestion that there should be con- ference on the subject of limitation of armament in connection with which Pacific and Far Eastern ques- tions should also be discussed. Productive labor is staggering un- der an economic burden too heavy to be borne unless the present vast pub lie expenditures are greatly reduced.

HOUSE WILL N0T
 PASS TAX BILL AUGUST A

IHepubiican A. P. Leased WlreJ
 WASHINGTON, Aug. Il. The movement for a recess of congress received several setbacks today and as a result the tentative date for be- ginning the 30-day vacation turned back from August 20 to August 24 or 25.
 Probable delay in house passage of the tax revision bill was the princi- pal cause of talk of postponement. Representative Mondell, Wyoming. Senator Lodge of Massachusetts, sem ate leader, that August 20 appeared too early for recess and that it now was probable the tax bill could not be gotten through until August A or 25.
 Another obstacle to the proposed vacation was rising opposition among both Republican and Democratic senators, because of the status of several pending bills. Several Demo- crats served notice in the senate to- day they would oppose a vacation resolution. possibly to the. extent of filibustering. unless the good roads bill is enacted.
 A compromise on this legislation was reached today by the senate postoffice and post roads committee which agreed to report bill next Monday calling for $100.000,000 of government appropriations. s50.000.- 900 of which would be immediately available with the balance in six months
 The committee adopted provisions giving authority to the states to lay out state roads systems, subject to

Purposes of Conference

Purposes of Conference
 That there can be no hope for peaee or stability until the tax burden resulting from heavy ar-
 maments had been reduced;
 That such . reduction is pos-
 sibIe only if troublesome inter . national problems are solved by
 common consent;
 That among these problems the
 Pacific and Far Eastern ques-
 tions occupy position of ~ur-
 questioned importance"
 That although there is 10 in-
 tention to dictate the scope of
 the conference, the discussions should touch upon matters (which
 have been" of international con-
 eern as well as those now admit
 tediy eontroversiai; and
 That the question of naval ar-
 maments might well be consid-
 cred first, though there should be
 no barrier to a full consideration
 of armaments of every sort
 Co-incidentally with the dispatch of the invitations to the four great powers. China was asked to send ( delegation to take part in those dis cussions of the conference which re- late to the Pacific and the Far East All five nations thus invited have in- dicated informally that they would accept.
 May Discuss Yap Question
 The note of invitation follows the principles previously defined by this government in its informal conversa- tions with the other powers hut par suggestion that solution of the Fal E@aS Sf cfr al ( common understandings with re- spect to matters which have beer and are of. inE ernatiopal concern State departmeht officials would noi interpret the text of the note but tht general assumption here was that un- der this definition a way would bs found to discuss such questions a. Tap and Shantung, which 'havs been" of international concern, but which Japan now is inclined to re- gard as closed incidents.
 From the start the American gov ernment has held that such subject: ought not to be excluded from ar honest effort to reach an adjust ment in the Far East. Japan on tn, other hand carried her insistence |, the point of declaring in her informa acceptance of a place in the confer. ence that she did not expect to dis cuss subjects or situations whici could be regarded as accomplished facts" whether such a qualification will be repeated in the formal accept ance of the Tol1io government Is | subject of conjecture.
 Discuss War Agencies
 Aside from the hint that naval ar fnaments would logically come first il the considerations of the conference the formal invitation makes only on' suggestion as to the subject matte of the disarmament discussion themselves. That relates to ''nev agencies of warfare" control of whici the note holds to be advisable in thu interest of humanity. Under thi
