Sit in Supreme Council
Refuoes. Homeuer, to Indicate
Whether He VIII Participate
or Merely BE an OHt0okor

LONDON, May 81 (By The hsso-
ciated Press) Ambassador oi>rvey
told the American correspondent to-
day that he expected to attend the
Forthcoming meeting of the Supreme
Council in Boulognc, but he would not
indicate whether he would take part in
the deliberations of the Council or sit
with it merely as an observer. The oc-
casion was the ambassadors first recep-
tion of the representatives of the press
since his arrival here three weeks ago.
Ambassador Harvey took occasion to
dispel the idea that had been expressed
in some of the London newspapers that
because of his close personal relations
with President Harding he might de-
part from strict diplomatic usage and
voice his personal opinions with rela-
ton to international questions.
The ambassador declined to express
an opinion as to what the American at
tude would be in the matter Of as
aisting in the execution of the League
of Nations plan for the economic re
habilitation of Austria and other issues
involving the league.
Ambassador Harvey said nothing had
been brought officially to hi; attention
with reference to an allege diversion
of Irish White Gross funds for the pur-
chase of American ammunition found
in Ireland.

Letter Demanding Accusers
DO Him Justice Placed

From Ths Trfbuno's Washington B.reau
WASHINGTON, May 31.--A defense
OF the record of Bernard M. Baruch
through the war period, prepared by
Mr.. Barnch himself in letter to Sen
ator Kenyon. was put into The Con-
gressicnal Record in the Senate to-
day at Mr.. Kenyon's request.
Mr.. Baruch in his letter declared he
had done nothing with relation TO cop.
per price fixing which was subject to
criticism, and that, so far as his ex-
nense account was concerned, the gov
ernment had never paid "for so much
as q glass of water or piece of bread
for me-"
Mr.. Baruch wrote Senator Kenyon
. because of comment the latter made in
response to a letter of inquiry from
Clifford Thorne, counsel for the Amer
:can Farm Bureau Federation.
In March Mr.. Thorne wrote TO the
Iowan Senator saying Mr.. Baruch had
been called before the Farmers Market
ing Committee for advice in regard to
formulation of system for coopera-
tive marketing of grain. He asked
Senator Kenyon the basis for the at
tacks on Mr.. Baruch in Congress on
April Ia. Senator Kenyon in a letter
TO Mr.. Thorne said he had a feeling
there was a good deal of patriotism
about Mr.. Baruch, but he could not
overlook fixing of the price Of copper
MIL,
interests in copper, nor the S15o,000
e4per sc item.
Kenyon Would Withhold Halo
Some of these things naturally put
question mark in my mind when it
comes to the placing of nalos on
baruch's brow" said Mr. Kenyon.
Mr.. Thorne obtained permission from
Senator Kenyon to show this docu-
ment to Mr.. Baruch. The latter then
wrote the Senator. His letter said in
part:
Doubtless If I had not entered the
service of the government my fortune
would have continued to increase. 1t

She has visited the chid's mother and

Salvatore Varotta, the boys father,
becomes increasingly agitated as the

have been done away with, but his wife
never wavers in believing that he will
be returned to her. Every time step
is heard on the dark tenement house
stairway she rushes to the door and
peers over the ratings. She has ap-
pealed to her neighbors to stop calling
on her, for she fears that, if they in

be frightened away if they see too
many persons around. Her husband is
less optimistic. Not only does he think
that he may never see little Giuseppe

contained in the Black Hand letter that
"they will all be killed and their house
burned"

Mcclellan Declares
Harvey Unfit and
Demands His Recall
Points TO Deadly Parallel
Between Expressions OF
Ambassador and Those
OF President Harding

From The T,fbune'a WASHINGTON Bureau
WASHINGTON. May 31.- Senator
Mcclellan. of Tennessee, attacking
Ambassador George Harvey iii the Sen
ate to-day, on account of the recent
speech of the Ambassador before the
Pilgrims Society in London, declared
that of all the criticisms uttered, writ
ten or published against the Harvey
speech the most effective denunciation
and criticism was that by the President
himself.
Senator Mcclellan presented what he
termed "a deadly parallel between
the expressions of Ambassador Har-
vey in his speech and the speeches of
the President at Hoboken, at Old
Pohick Church, and at Arlington. He
contrasted such expressions of Colonel
Harvey as I'VE were afraid not to
fight" and eve sent them solely to
save the United States of America"
with such expressions by President
Harding as "these heroes saw civiliza-
tion threatened and rescued it," and
"the supreme justice for which they
died"
The Tennessee Senator declared the
utterances of Colonel Harvey were "a
libel upon the government of the
United States.
"They constitute a desecration of
the memory of every one of the nearly
100000 young men who gave up their
lives on the battlefields of France" he
said. "They are an insult to every one
of the nearly 100000 soldiers who en-
listed in that great conflict. They con-
stitute a wanton libel upon every pa
triotc man and women in this coun-
try, They are the words of craven
and sycophant. The statement that
we were afraid not to fight is as false
as Satan himself, and the statement
that I'VE sent them solely to save the
United States of America is so false
that l do not believe there is an in
telligent man, woman or child in all
the world that cannot bear evidence to
its falsity."
He commended the President for ut
tering "these rebukes to Mr.. Harvey"
He declared he hoped the President.
would recall Colonel Harvey, that it
was shame to be represented abroad
by man who thus expresses the con-
tempt he has for his own nation and
