zation year ago, it was announced
that it had entered into a contract
with the Hamburg American line to
reopen former trade routes of the
German company.
Contract Never Approved.
The United States Mail Steamship
company has a similar contract with
the North German Lloyd, which so
far as is known never has been ap-
proved by the shipping board Its
details have not been made public
Decision to take action against the
United States Mail Steamship com
pany was made last Thursday at
Washington. at a full meeting of the
shipping board, Mr.. Smull said. and
the action was unanimous. The al
legged dereliction of the company in
the matter of payments was called
to the attention of the new board by
the district auditor. Former Chair
man Benson. now one of the commits
sioners. suggested the course taken.
According to Elmer Schiesinger. gem.
eral counsel of the shipping board. the
board must get down to business
basis
JoIlied Out of $5,00O.00O.
''The old board was. jollied out of
S5.OOO.OO0 more than the United

"and they have left the freight and
passenger receipts since March 81"
Decision to have the United Ameri-
can lines take charge of the ships was
reached this morning, Mr.. SmulI said
He reiterated that the arrangement
was only temporary.
Complication arose Saturday night
when Emil Lederer. traffic manager.
of the United American lines. made an
unsuccessful attempt to secure posses
sion of the United States Mail steam
ship company's business office at 45
Broadway.
He presented letter from Mr.
Smull directing him to take possession
of the premises. The agent in charge
however. said no such authority would
be recognized and denied him admis-
sion to the offices.

victim "of a gigantic political
plot
Declarin gthat he was being
prosecuted by "vested interests"
treasury looters' and character

that when they found that they

their tools to disgrace and destroy
me by having me indicted by the
grand jury Of Sangamon county
county ruled by the most vicious
ring in IIlonois."
Reviewing his acts in office, the
governor said he stood against the
plundering of the state treasury
by the money powers" and that
one who had defied these interests
could expect nothing more than to
be the victim of their schemes.
His audience was made up Of the
followers of Mayor William Hale
thompson, who followed Governor

nor" said Mayor Thompson, "we
took him at his word and elected
him. He hadn't been governor two
weeks when he sold out. His COM
mission gave you higher street car
rates, higher water rates, higher
rates of every kind.
Then, after the people elected
Len Small as their governor, the
same interests went to him and
tried to buy him out. And when
they found they couldn't buy him,
they starteS in to crush him.
This man whom you elected
was prosecuted. but with your help
the fight will 90 on. The fight you
made a year ago made you an
honest governor. He will stick by

Final Plans Await
Japan's Decision as
to Discussion Range

Washington, July 23.-(By The AS
sociated Press.)-Progress towards fl
nal adjustment of the plans for the
disarmament conference continued to
be delayed Saturday by Japan's consd-
Grafton of the extent to which she will
participate in the discussion of far
eastern questions and the efforts of
the British dominion premiers to bring
ABOUT postponement of the meeting.
Officials of the government remain
ed confident, however, that out of the
deliberations of the diplomatic adyis-
ory council at Toxic, would come the
announcement of an agreement that
would be in accord with the general
plan for the discussion of far eastern
subjects, and that European opposi-
ton to conference as early as Novem-
Der would not be persisted into the
point of causing serious delay.
Confidazee Heightened.
Confidence in the ultimate decision
of Japan was heightened by Associated
Press dispatches from Toxic quoting
newspapers of the Japanese capital as
agreed that Japan will enter the con-
ference.
1t has been clearly explained to the
British government that the United
States continued to favor date not
later than November IL for the open
ing. of the conference, although it is
understood that insistence on that fea-
tnre was not carried so far as to indi-
cate an unalterable determination. A
counter suggestion said to have been
made was to advance the date of the
conference with the thought that the
dominion premiers may be able to join
in the discussions prior to the date
fixed for the convening of the legisla-
tive bodies of their countries.

Mellon Will Advise
Congress Next Week
on Allied Debt Pact

Washington. July 23.-Secrctary
Mellon has started work on memor-
andum to be presented to the senate
finance committee early next week,
setting forth how far the treasury con-
siders itself committed to the negotia-
tons of the Wilson administration with
reference to the funding of the nations
loans to Europe.
The treasury is understood to take
the general position that the negotia-
tions of former Secretaries Glass and
Houston with the representatives of
the allied governments were merely
discussions. The treasury, however,
is understood to view differently the
matter of the British accumulated in
terests, on which there was an under
standing for deferment for three years
until the spring of 1922. pending a
funding agreement for all the loans.

Rum Runners Move
North Along Coast,
Dry Officers Claim

Washington. July 23.-Iiquor snug
glers were said Saturday by coast
guard officials to be creeping up the
Atlantic coast, forced by the difficult
ties of rail transportation of the liquor
to transfer their activities from the
more favorable southern waters.
Commenting on recent reports of
rum runners operating off Long Is
land, Atlantic City and other northern
ports. officials said the shift in the
scenes of activity was due to increasing
success in prohibition of liquor ship
ments by rail from Florida. Florida
waters, it is said, are infested with
swift liquor craft but vessels are being
seized every day.
Officials explained that as a result
smngglers are seeking to put liquor
ashore in secluded bays and hidden
coves near the more important "mar-
kets."

President Sleeps
in Tent in Woods
as Guest of Ford.
Edison, Fnestone

BigpooI, Nd, July 23.-Far
away from the cares Of the presi-
dency, Warren G. Harding spent
Saturday afternoon and night in a
tented camp sequestered among
the Maryland hills.
The presidents companions on
his excursion back to nature were
Henry Ford, Thomas A. Edison,
Harvey S. Firestone, and Bishop
William r. Anderson, of the
Methodist Episcopal church. They
will remain together at their camp
near here until late Sunday when
the president will motor back to
Washington.
On his arrival here, shortly after
noon Saturday, Mr.. Harding ap-
parentIy put all the responsibilities
ST his office away from him.. As
soon as he alighted from his auto
mobile after the hundred mile ride
he threw off his coat and swung an
axe for few minutes to help out
the camp detail, cutting wood to
cook lunch. After the meal was
over he sat for a while chatting
with other members of the party
under the canopy of sycamore and
elms which cover the camp site
and later in the afternoon had a
long nap.
The camp, situated on the bank
of Licking creek, is reached only
by private driveway SO that cur
ious crowds who had hoped to see
the president at play, were kept
away.
The presidents bed Saturday
night was a canvas cot of army
model in an 8x5 tent. The camp
had many modern facilities to OBJ
viate some of the usual inconven-
fences of camp life but there was
no immunity from mosquitoes and
similar pests.
