Annual Parleys Britain May Call
Suggested for War Debts Off
Asiatic Treaty TO Help Europe
Continued from page onc)

China's demand for the abolition Of
xtraterritorialitv The conference has
agreed to the demand "in principle"
but has decided on the appointment of
q commission to investigate the sub
ject in China. Each power is to ap-
point one member in the commission by
next March. 4 report is to be made
not later than March, 1923. The only
responsible body to which the commits
sion could report, it is contended,
would be another conference.
Withdrawal of foreign troops and
abolition of foreign postofficcs are
other demands which China asserts are
essential to the restoration of her ad-
ministrative autonomy. But neither Of
these issues can be settled by the pres
ent conference. The date fixed for the
Withdrawal Of foreign postoffices is
January /, 1923. Japan, France, Great
Britain and. the United States, the only
countries which maintain postal sys
tens in China, have stipulated that in
the mean time the Chinese postal sys-
tenn must be investigated to ascertain
whether it is adequate to replace the
postoffices to be withdrawn.
Similarly the withdrawal of foreign
troops, particularly those stationed as
"legation guards" at Peking, will not
be undertaken until revolutionary con-
ditions in China are known to have
passed. Japan has agreed to withdraw
her garrison of soldiers at Hankow,
500 miles up the Yangtse River, but
the question of a general withdrawal
of al foreign troops has not yet been
acted upon. A decision is expected to
provide that the legation guards will
remain until safeguards are provided
against a possible recurrence of the
anti-foreign Boxer uprising Of 1900.
Dr.s Alfred SEE, of the Chinese dele
cation, said China must necessarily be
d signatory on an equal footing with
the other powers in the nine power
Asiatic agreement suggested by MIR.
Hughes. He indicated that the status
quo as regards Japan's presence in
Manchuria and Shantung must be
greatly modified before any such agree
ment could be reached. Looking upon
an Asiatic agreement similar to the
Pacific Islands treaty as the most hope
full result for China that could issue
from the conference, DR.. SEE declared
that Mr.. Hughes's plan foreshadowed
permanent peace in Asia.

Brother of Ex-Ennpress Zita
Likes New York So Well
He viii Return

Prince Rene de Bourbon. brother of
the banished ex-Empress Zita of Aus
tria, sailed for Europe yesterday on
the Cunard Liner Aquitania
Prince Rene expressed regret at Iav-
ing to leave the United States, saying
his stay here had been one of the
pleasantest experiences of his life and
that he would return as soon as cir
cumstances permitted him to do so for
another visit. The prince is en- route
to visit his sister in Madeira and ex-
pects to remain there until the end of
February.
The Marchioncss of Crewe, who came
here several months ago as the guest of
the Countess of Granard also returned
to England on the Aquitania
The Aquitana was held fifteen min
ntes beyond her sailing hour while o
search was made for Bertha Froh-
linger, a Hungarian girl, twenty two
years old, FROM Kisvorda. She came
here recently on the Cunard liner Car
mania and was ordered deported be-
cause the monthly immigration quota
from Hungary had been exhausted.
Counsel for the girl procured writ of
habeas corpus from the Federal Court
Of the Southern District of New York
snd had the girl removed from the
liner. An effort will be made to keep
her in the country

BALTIMORE, Dec. 13.--In refunding
foreign loans the new bonds should be
drawn "to fit the ability of each coun-
try to pay Eliot Wadsworth, Assist
ant Secretary of the Treasury, said to-
night in an address before the invest
ment bankers of Baltimore 1t was the
opinion OF Treasury experts, he said,
that the debts should be refunded and
that the terms of the resulting bonds
should be arranged with this primary
condition in mind.
"These loans involve most intricate
problems of foreign exchange, foreign
trade and, to an extent, the solvencv
OF many debtor governments" MI.
Wadsworth explained. "Therc is no
rule or precedent to be followed in
dealing with the world credit situation
caused by the existence Of debts among
nations"
Obligations of foreign governments
With accrued interest are held by the
treasury to an aggregate of $ll.OOO.

Missing Records Delay
Water Meter Inquiry

The investigation into the water
meter scandal, in which the citv is
SAID to have lost hundreds of thou
sands of dollars through tamperne
with meters by inspectors Of the De-,
Paartment pa of Water Supply, Gas and
Et,lectrielty, was resumed yesterday by
David Hirshfield Commissioner of Ac
counts. Little was accomplished. how
ever, as one of the chief witnesses.
Henry L. Ferguson, bookkeeper for the
Yale Laundry, of $40 West Fifty
eighth Street. failed to produce the
books of that concern as requested
by the Commissioner.
Ihe water meter at the laundry was
found to have been "fxed" and John
Clapp, an inspector in the Department
OF water Supply, was arrested and ad-
mltted to bail pending hearing, as
a result OF the investigation that fol-
lowed. Before Ferguson left the Com
missioner of Accounts Office yesterday
ne was served with subpoena duces
tecum, and ordered to produce the
books. Ferguson testified that on De-
cember he wrote a check for SIPS
which was later signed by Henry T.
Arlington, president of the laundr,
company, and made payable to Clapp,
the meter inspector. Ferguson said
the, reason he had not produced the
books was that he had telephoned his
resignation to Mr.. Armington and later
wrote resignation and placed it on
desk.

Continued from psgs one)

Of an international economic confer
cnce, which have been current here
during the last few days. are the sub
ject of comment in the London morning
newspapers to-day. 1t is not assumed
that such q conference has been de-
cided upon, but the success of the
armament conference has aroused hopes
that the economic troubles of Europe
might be settled by a similar gather
ing.
Connected with the rumors are more
or less vague reports that Prime Min
ister Lloyd George and Premier BRAND
of France intend to go to Washington
together after the French Premier's
visit here next week.
1.-THE Daily Mail' claims to have re-
ceived official information from Down
ing Street that Mr.. Lloyd George is un-
likely to go to America for some
months, but, instead, purposes taking a
vacation trip to southern France after
the coming Parliament session. On the
other hand, "The Times" says: "The
suggestion is hazarded that after next
weeks conferences with NJ. BRAND Mr..
Lloyd George might not deem the mo-
ment inopportune to lay the whole
question Of the needs of shattered Eu-
rope before President Harding, who
undoubtedly has the warmcst sympa-
thy for the stricken continent. Should
Mr.. Lloyd George take the initiative in
appealing to him to summon another
conference to consider world economic
and financial conditions, the appeal it
is thought, might not be unavailing."

Show Arms Farley Is Near End
British Delegate Refuses to Get Hair Cut i'm u. S
Belief He VIII Soon Be Able to

From Thc Trsbunc's Washington Bureau

From Thc T,ibwe's Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, Dec. 13.--Signs that
the conference will soon be over were
multiplying daily. 1t is reported on
the highest authority that the dozens
of typcwriters placed by the thought
full State Department in the Navy
Building for the use OF the corre-
spondents have suffered innumcrable
casualties recently and never move
has been made to revive ITEM. The
few that still are in working order
have ribbons that are so worn out that
it is almost impossible to write legibly
with them.
1T stands to rcason,' said we'll
known neutral diplomat when ques-
toned about this, "that if the confer
ence were to continue long the State
Department, owing to it's great solici~
tude for the press, would have renewed
the ribbons. l cannot see how any
other Interpretation can be placed lSon
this highly significant fact than that
the department confidently expects the
conference to be over in the near
future"
Attempts to reach the Secretary Of
State on this important matter we're
frustrated owing to the fact that he
was in conference with Mr.. Balfour and
Baron kato.
i, * X
From British sources further con-
firmation of the early termination was
Forthcoming. A high spokesman for
the British delegation, who refused to
give his name, when asked whether the
conference would soon end, pointed to
his hair, which already was flowing
down over the back of his collar. The
gesture was all the more dramatic be-
cause accompanied by the most perfect
silence. "Rather long, what?" said the
correspondent, so as to relieve the en-
barrassment. "Quite," said the Brit
Usher, in an intonation that implied
you've said mouthful." Have you
been to barber?" the correspondent
hazarded. "My word, no. There aren't
any in this country. All you have is
tonsorial artists. Jolly we'll going to
wait till l get home before / have my
hair cat, you know. Deuced bore, this
conference, lasting so long, isn't it?

Harding Wants Congress
To Let Budget Stand
From The Trsoune's Washington Bureau

IRON IHe Irt0une'S washington BuTedN
WASHINGTON, Dec. 13.-The Presi-
dent feels that the new budget pre-
pared By Director of the Budget Dawes
is being tested now, and he lopes that
Congress will not make a,ly SUBJ
stantial changes in the estimates. The
Budget Director tried to cut all esti-
mates to the bone, the President feels
General Dawes has brought the cost Of
government and the call for govern
ment funds to the lowest possible
estimate consistent with the require
ments Of the various departments.
The President is known to hold the
opinion that the recommendations made
by the budget officer will be sufficient
to establish the justification Of the
sum asked for. 1t is felt in Admins
tration circles that the budget cannot
succeed if the recommendations are
looked upon as basis on which TO
trade. 1t is the first time in the cou,.-
try's history when the budget has been
sent to Congress with the cutting of
estimates already ACCOMPLISHED,

Democrats i'm
Senate Outline
W ar ON Treaty
tcontlnued from page one)

che inundated islands of the North Pa
cific will be ratified. Senators Reed, Of
Missouri and Watson, of Georgia, came
out against the Yap agreement to-day.
Senator Reed thought that under the
treaty the japanese could "listen in"
on any message sent via Yap.
at seems to be as though under the
agreement the United States surren-
6ers all her substantial rights in Yap
or any other inundated possessions of
Japan in the Pacific" said Mr.. Reed.
Senator Overman, Democrat, Of
North Carolina, opposed the four-power
treaty. He held that japan under the
Angl o-Japanese treaty had one power
backing her and now lad three, and
that Japanese influence in the Pacific
would be much enhanced.
Senator Robinson, of Arkansas,
called the treaty relative to the man
victory for Japan" He did not saw,
however, that he would vote against it.
1t is not impossible that reserva-
tions or amendments will be proposed
to the four-rower treaty in the Senate.
One reservation talked about is to the
effect that decisions in conferences
under the four-power agreement must
be unanimous.
Senator La Toilette in statement
to-day opposed the four-powe treaty.
He said: "After a preliminary study of
the proposed treaty | am convinced
that President Harding and the SEN
ate cannot bind this country in alli-
ance with Great Britain, France and
Japan, under the terms proposed, with
out revolutionary denial of our tradi-
sional American policy, surrender of
our national security and independ
ence, and betrayal of the trust reposed
IN this Administration by the Ameri-
can people at the polls.
Calls 1t Alliance for War
"Under the cloak of .,aference
made possible by world wide senti-
mcnt for disarmament the diplomats.
representing reactionary sentiment in
Great Britain, France, Japan and the
United States, have hatched in secret
treaty of alliance which morally
binds this country to go to war when
over the rights of any of the high
contracting parties in the Pacific are
'threatened.'
