british and French statesmen and
- financiers have not yet been able
to come to anything like agreement
concerning the German reparations,
and from both countries come unofi-
cial but insistent calls to America
to take part In the discussions. The
hope is expressed daily that President
Harding will call another conference
to handle this problem and that OF
world finances generally. Meantime
the senate finance committee is fuss
ing with the ADMINISTRATORS foreign
oar refunding bill and trying to dc
things to 1t which Secretary of the
Treasury Mellon does not like. He
especially objected to a proposed pro-
vision requiring foreign nations to
make payments of Interest on their
indebtedness to the United States
semi-annually. He said this would
seriously handicap negotiations for re-
funding the loans.

China's delegation stepped forward
again on Wednesday with formal plea
to the Far Eastern committee for
h a%brogation of the treaties grow
ing out of the twenty-one demands
of Japan in 1918, which China says
she was forced to accept. BY these
treaties Japan retains her hold on
Shantung and Manchuria. The Jap
anese delegates quickly and sharply
objected to the Chinese proposal and
the committee adjourned sine die.
Meanwhile the negotiations between
he japanese and Chinese outside the
conference are continuing, the latter
putting Onward a plan by which Chi
nese bankers propose to purchase from
Japan the ownership and control Of
the Shantung railroad-the nub of the
whole controversy over that province.
II was said the Japanese had so far
receded from their original claims for
retention of half ownership that they
were now willing to give up the road,
with certain reservations concerning
the methods and security for payment,
and also preferential rights of invest
ment. These rights might result In
giving the Japanese actual control Of
the management, but China realizes
that she cannot get all she asks.
The members Of the conference evil
IDENTIFY feel that the best they can do
for China now Is to adopt a new bill
Of rights" for her which will enable
her to organize a stable functioning
government, and that TO such a govern
ment may be left many of the coun-
try's problems and troubles.
To further complicate the Chinese
problem came from the soviet govern
ment Of Russia a protest against dis
cussion Of the Chinese Eastern rail-
way by the conference. The road,
which Is of immense strategic and
economic Importance to Russia, China
and Japan, was built by Russia inc
legally speaking belongs to Russia.
For several years 1t has been managed
by an interallied board whose chair
man is John F. Stevens Of America.
Both the United States and Japan
have spent large sums on the upkeep
Of the line.
Secretary Hughes made public the
main points Of the agreement entered
into between the United States INT
Japan concerning zap and the other
islands north OF the equator assigned
to Japan by the treaty of Versailles.
1t confers upon the United States
equal privileges with Japan in all
those islands but imposes on 1t no
obligations or responsibilities.

D REPRESENTATIVES. OF $4,000 rail-
~ way maintenance of way and
shop laborers met in New York and
voted to reject any wage reduction pro-
posals and to appeal to the railway la
Dor board for increases In pay. Two
days later that board dealt the main
tenance Of way men a hard blow In
new rules 1t promulgated. Under this
decision time and a half rates are to
be paid after the tenth hour of work
instead Of after the eighth hour as I'M
der the old national working agree
ment. The 'basic" eight-hour day,
however. is reaffirmed; but the new
rules allow the carriers and employees
TO make agreements for reduction OF
working hours below eight to avoid
making force reductions. The starting
time of any shift, too. is to be arranged
by mutual understanding. This knocks
ou rigid hour stipulntions In the old
agreement.

/ Unless someone i%ntervenes, Chile
- and Peru are likely to have a wal
over the long disputed territory of
Tacna-Arica. Technically a state Of
war has existed between them since
the Peruvian assembly decreed the re-
incorporation Of Tacna-Arica and Tar
apaca In Peruvian territory. Now.
though there are no diplomatic rela-
lions between the two countries, Chile
has invited Peru to take part In a
plebiscite in the territory, and has In
timated that II Peru declines. Chile's
only alternative Is to annex Tacna-
africa. No M expects Peru to accept
the invitation, and the governments
organ, La Prensa Of Lima, character
lies the Chilean note as "a gross In
suit following the deportation of
Peruvians from the captured prov
inces." This journal suggests arbi-
tration by the United States as the

THE United Mine Workers OF Amer.
l lea won a partial victory on
Thursday when the United States Cir.
cult Court OF Appeals at Chicago found
Judge Anderson Of Indianapolis was In
error In enJoIning the operation OF the
"checkor" system and reminded the
case back TO him for rehearIng. This
action OF the Court Of Appeals was be-
lieved to have prevented a general
strike OF coal miners, already started
in Indiana and Illinois.
Wives Of the striking coal miners of
Kansas. followers OF the discredited
and expelled Howat, were the leaders
OF mobs In the Pittsburg region which
fiercely attacked miners who wished to
work and raised such trouble generally
that state troops were sent there.

GOVERNOR HARDING OF the fed

during the past year, though normally
Is yet TO be attained.

farmer improves" he continued. at
