NEW YORK, July 6.-The need for
America to apply its great power for
world betterment in a concrete way

Herrick, re-appointed ambassador to
France, at a luncheon given in his
honor by the France-America Society.

their problems, the. solution which

In a message President Harding
said:
Il desire to join in spirit with those
present in tribute to Mr.. Herrick. The

FRENCH OBJECT
TO CLAUSES TN
COP. TARIFF

PARIS, July 6.-(By the Associated
Press)-The French government this
afternoon forwarded to NJ. Jusserand,
French ambassador in Washington,
for transmission to the state depart
ment there, protest of the French
chamber of commerce against the
provision of the new American tariff
law calling for inspection by Ameri-
can agents of the books of French eX-
porters for the purpose of determin-
ing the ad valorem duties to be COZ
lected by the United States.
French exporters are said to be
greatly disturbed over this feature of
the tariff measure, and declare iHaI
under no conditions will inspection be
tolerated. II is pointed out that such
a privilege as the American law re-
quests is not accorded even to tine
French government except in unusual
instances. The French in their pro
test say they are willing to give to
treasury department agents full state
ments upon which the ad valorem tax
can be based.

Sam Brown Belts
To Be Worn By
Army Officers

WASHINGTON, July 1.-THE
Sam Brown belt, worn by officers
of foreign armies and Americans
who saw service overseas, was ap-
proved today as part of the regu-
lation issue uniform for officers
of the United States army. Under
the orders all officers in uniform
will be compelled to wear the belt
beginning July 15 Members of
the army nurse corps and warrant
officers are not permitted to wear
the belt.
General Pershing and his staff
continued to wear the belts upon
their return from Europe. but all
other officers were ordered to dis
card them. The explanation was
made that the belts served to dis
tinguish those who served overseas
from those who saw only domestic
service.
Officers who have worn the Sam
Browns declare they lend an i'm
provement in appearance to the
uniform and in addition are an aid
in carrying sabres and sidearms by
removing the weight of such bur-
dens from the waist to the shoul-

Irish Problem Can Be Solved Says General
Jan Smuts, South African Premier, Following
Conference In Dublin With Sim Fein Leader

LONDON, July 6.-(By the AssOci-
Jan Christian Smuts, South African
premier, is the outstanding figure in
the hoped-for peace settlement in Ire
land. General SHUTS has just return
ed from that country where he con-
ferred with Eamonn de Valero, and to-
night he declared his belief that the
problem is capable of solution.
Today General SHUTS was closeted
for many hours with the British prime
minister; Sir James Craig, the Ulster
premier; Sir Hamar Green, chief sec
retary for Ireland; Lord Birkenhead,
lord high chancellor; A. j. Balfour,
lord president of the council; Edwara
Shortt. home secretary: Earl Middle
ton, leader of the south Irish Union
lists, and Sir Horace Plunkett, chair
man of the Irish convention in 1917-1S.
1t is confidently believed that the
latter was the bearer of definite pro-
posals from De Valera At the din
ner of the South African colony to-
night, General Smuts pleaded for co.i-
ciliation on the part of both sides and
declared that similar problem, equui-
ly difficult, had been solved in South
Africa. Now South Africa was one
of the happiest countries in the en-
pire, said General SHUTS.
Sim Fein flags intertwined with
Union Jacks in the Irish quarter of
Liverpool greeted the visit of the
Prince of Wales to that city. and, ac-
cording to a prominent Sim Feiner
the order for this came from Dublin.
Other signs of conciliation are looked
for.

Railroad Asked TO
Explain Expensive
Repairs to Engines

CHICAGO. July 6.-Officials of the
Chicago and Northwestern railway,
appearing before the Interstate Com
merce Commission here today, told
why locomotives had been sent to
outside concerns for repairs instead
of the roads own shops. Shortage
OF equipment, supplies and help were
the principal reasons given. To a
degree these reasons were rafuted by
Investigators for the commission
who, during the afternoon session,
testified that the need for repair
work was not so urgent as represent
ed by the road and that during 1920
more workers were employed by the
road than had been previously EN-
ployed.
The hearing is being held by the
commission for the purpose of ascer-
tanning if the railroads violated the

economical operation of all roads. F

that il would block ''all refunding op-
