Agreement Is Reached After Conference Between Davis
 And President

WASHINGTON, May 27.-An agree. ment on wages and working condi- tions was reached tonight between representatives of the Marine Engi. neers' Beneficial Association and Chairman Benson, of the shipping board. in the controversy which has threatened a tie-up of American ship ping. The terms will be submitted to the various local unions Sunday for ratification.

 The terms of the tentative agree ment were not made public, but in general they are understood to follow the lines previously laid down of pro- vi9ing for a 15 per cent wage reduc- tion and making some changes in overtime rules and working condi- tionS.

With the Borah amendment "authorizing and requesting" the president to call three power conference 10 discuss disarmament already in the bill. Sen ator Pomerene offered a supplement tary amendment. It would have au- thorized the president to gspend American naval construction for six months "in order to arrange" the conference and if disarmament agreement should be reached to sus- pend construction in part or in whole. The proposal was beaten twice. once on point Of order. sus- tained by Vice President Coolidge and again by a reserve vote, 29 to 37, for suspension of the rules to make it in order.

WASHINGTONs. May 27. - A group of bankers and financiers from every section ol the country are to be consulted by President Harding before he concludes the series of fi- naneial conferences begun Wednes- day n.ght at the White House din ner when the eastern banking inter- ests were chiefly represented. No appointment for furthr conferences has yet been made, but it is proba- ble that a group of financial lead CTS from the middle west will be the next to be summoned by the presi- dent.
 IL was indicated in administration c'rcles that financial men are very unanimous in believing that the fed eral reserve board holds the key to q proper readjustment of general fi- nancial condit 'ons.

 Removal Of restrictive measures placed by the board on credit eX- tenc.on. under the federal reserve get was said to have been advocate by the bankers as a means Of solving the problem facing the farmers.

 Leg'slation to permit longer cred it's to the farmers through extension of the limits fixed by the reserve act on agricultural papers eligible for rediscount at reserve banks was said to have been favored. The opin' ion was expressed that restriction cn eligible agricultural paper to six months was too early maturity in the case Of many farmers.
 A phase of the export problem which, t is understood. was dis cussed was the question of a possi ble guarantee of the stability of the governments Of countries into which American goods might be shipped

A GARDEN DISCOVERY

Sunday two years ago."
After that there was such a, buzz oil
excited talk that nobody did quite re-
member who said what. But every
body was happy and making joyous
plans and everybody was brimming
over with interesting ideas.
The next two weeks were busy ones
All the clothing and furniture and toys
and everything had to be packed for
shipping. And in addition to that
work, Mr.. and Mrs Darrow found time
to take the children down town and
select garden tools and make inquiry
about chicken houses and supplies.
Il think we can manage that chick
en- business very WE'LL" said Mr.. Oar
row thoughtfully, "but think we had
better walt, Bob, till the garden is
made. I will give you and Florence
each patch of land for your own.
and you can cultivate that. And then
I will depend on you for certain
amount of help for the general garden.
When we get those to going, We'll buy
some baby chicks and, If you like, a
setting hen and some eggs and you
may go into the chicken business. But

then. before the children recovered
from their amazement enough to
speak again, the little creature gave a
few long leaps and was out of sight in
the hedge.

down in, in the fall. And there they

Such fun as 1t was to move to the
country! OF course this wasn't really
truly country like ON a farm, but the
house was on the edge of tiny village
and, so far as the children knew, that
was real country life. The furniture
went out on great van and the fam
lily and the trunks went by train.
It was a beautiful day-birds sing
ing, spring breezes blowing, trees a
mass of bloom and such a sweet, clean
smell in the morning air. But there
was little time for looking at sights
that day, for the van arrived and then
there was the hustle and the delightful
hustle of getting settled. It's much
easier, the Darrows found, to settle
things into house where there is a
place for everything, than to move
into a tiny fiat with dark store room
way down stairs. In the new house,
there was a place for everything and
