HARVEY AGAIN UNDER ATTACK
Senate Would Have President Call
Ambassador Home

Washington Senator Harrison,
Dmocrat, Mississippi, introduced Mon
day resolution requesting President
Harding to inform the senate whether
'there Is as much reason and justifi-
cation for repremand or the recall of
Ambassador George w. Harvey for his
Pilgrims day speech of May 40, 1921,
as for the reprimand or recall of Ad-
minral VIM, S. Sims for his speech of
June Z, 1921"
The resolution also would have the
president advise the senate on these
points:
whether he was consulted or knew
of the purported speech Of Ambassador
Harvey or undertaken to ascertain
whether he or, through his direc-
ton, the secretary Of state has pro-
tested or reprimanded Ambassador
Harry or undertaken to ascertain
whether the ambassador was correctly
quoted in the American newspapers"
Senator Harrison sought immediate
consideration of his resolution, but OBJ
lection by Senator Curtis Of Kansas,
Republican whip forced it over.
Senator Harrison declared Ambass-
ador Havey's statement that we were
"afraid not to fight" was an insult to
every soldier, sailor and marinee who
served under the Stars and Stripes.

western bankers to be held in Chicago
A committee representing the eastern
bankers will attend the meeting.
= While eastern bankers will make
substantial contribution to the pool
the Chicago banks will be asked to take
charge Of the details Of the scheme.
The program is to make six months
livestock loans rather than for a two
year period as has been urged. The
six months paper will be subject to re.

1t is intended that the Chicago banks
shaH handle the loans through banks
in the cattle growing sections or
through cattle loan companies. In
this way it will be possible to use ex-
listing credit machinery, which will ia
clitate matters.
Handling Of the matter through pri-
vate banking channels is regarded as
desirable because Of the urgency of
the situation.
The purpose is to facilitate the an
nual movement Of cattle feeders from
the southwest to Idaho, Montana, Wy
Oming and other northwestern states.
Among those who will attend the
Chicago conference is Senator STAN
field Of Oregon, who also participated
in the meeting Of last week in WASH
dngt0n.
II believe that private credits to the
amount Of $5O,OOO,OOO would aid ma

in our country" said Senator Stanfield
in discussing the livestock situation
Tuesday. Naturally desre to have
the financial problem handled through
private hands than through govern
mental aid. The Chicago conference
ought to establish definitely whether
there is any need for federal legdsla-
ton. Private capital or federal credits
must work to save a situation that is
headed straight for meat famine"
