Second White III on S e
Conference Is Attended
by Hoover and Mellon
From The Trsbane's Washington Bs4reau

From The 3rtbunes washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, June 24.-American
business restoration first, was the
unanimous opinion at the conference
between the President and leading
Western bankers held at the White
House last night. The President and
Secretaries Mellon of the Treasury and
Hoover of Commerce, Director Mitchell
of the Federal Reserve Board and
Brigadier General Dawes, the new Di-
rector of the budget, were present at
the dinner at the White House which
preceded the conference.
In marked contrast with the opin-
ions of the Eastern financiers and the
international bankers who dlned and
conferred at the White House two
weeks ago, the Western financiers coun-
seled against the United States aiding
in the economic revival of Europe
through the granting of loans and the
tod the President that the quickest
way to help right the world was to
sshelp ourselves" rs one banker ex-
pressed it, and spend money at home
in preference to investing further capi-
tai in Europe.
Details concerning what transpired
at the conference were carefully guard
cd at the White House, announcement
being made that discussion took
place of various problems with which
the country is confronted at this time.
Some of the Administrations projects
for foreign trade expansion were
drowned upon by o number of the
bankers, notably, it is understood, by
George M. Reynolds, chairman of the
Continental and Commercial National
Bank of Chicago. Mr.. Reynolds was at
one time mentioned as a possibility
for the Treasury portfolio in the
Cabinet.
1t is a mistaken policy, IN the opin-
ION of the Western financiers, to per-
nit Europe to plunge further into debt
when at the present time the European
countries cannot pay the interest on
their debts. 1t is understood that Sec
rotary of Commerce Hoover took ex-
ception to some of the recommended
tions made by the Presidents guests,
particularly with reference to foreign
trade possibilities and set forth his
views in succinct manner.
One outstanding result of the confer
ence which was made public at the
White House to-day was to the effect
that from now on the President and the
members of the Cabinet intend to keep
in intimate contact with the financial
situation generally through the direc-
tors of Federal Reserve banks through
out the country, Il was pointed out
that in France, England and Italy the
government banks, like the Bank of
England and the Bank of Italy, are part
and parcel of the government financial
system. 1t is felt by the Administra-f
ton that the Federal Reserve banks,
are we'll equipped TO keep the govern
ment informed concerning the financial
outlook in a fashion similar to the
functions peri ormed by the foreign
banks. The President may in the

cation, since the state Legislature re-
fused to do SO. He cannot eyade the
issue, as the Lockwood law passed b..
the Legislature authorized the city to
issue bonds for the purpose
Under these circumstances, the
Mayor sponsored u resolution in the
Board Of Estimate yesterday for the
appropriation of $8,000,0O0 for school
matters. He explained that this was to
meet part Of the $27 100000 deficit in
the budget of the Board of Education,
and that, coupled with the amount that
would be received from the state-ap-
proximately $1,000, 000--would carry the
schools until November l. Comptroller
Craig Immediately took issue with the
Mayor and declared that the schools
would need $16,000,00O and tackled an
amendment to that effect upon the reso-
luton. The amendment was defeated,
however, the Mayors resolution finally
passing Special revenue bonds will be
issued for the $S,000000.
The official statistics covering amounts
received by the Board of Education,
and their percentage to the total taxes,
were shown by Superintendent Ett.nger

discussion until next week. He prom
iged he would give DR.. Shallow and the
Comptroller chance to talk IL out at
that time.
"Ha, ha,,' said Frank x. Sullivan,
Commissioner of Public Works of
Queens, who was acting as proxy for
Borough President Connolly, "the little
fight takes place the day before the
big fight"
The Comptroller and DR.. Shallow
were on the verge Of opening hostili-
ties when the Mayor interviewed. The
Comptroller had said that the Board
Of Education had delayed the work Of
the construction of new schools. F. H.
In Guardia, President of the Board of
Aldermen, declared that the educa-
tional board had made rreat progress
while the Comptroller remained away
from the Board Of Estimates meetings,
and asked DR.. Shallow II that was not
true.
"Yes, sir" replied DR.. Shallow, 1--WE
made more progress when the Comp
trcller was away on his three months
vacation"
"Why, you didn't lay brick" said
the Comptroller.
DR.. Shallow asked permission to
address the board on school matters,
but his request was refused on the
ground that it was not on the calen-
dar
"I'll make contribution of $50 to
help hire hall for the doctor to speak
in" said the Comptroller.
When the communication from the
Comptroller charging the board with
delay in appropriating money to pay
more than 100000 of old claims
against the Board of Education for
materials, supplies and refunds on
teachers salaries was considered,
resolution was promptly adopted, in
line with the Comptroller's sugges-
ton, authorizing the issue of revenue
bonds to meet the claims.
The board authorized the issuing Of
revenue bonds to the amount of $742,-
600 the proceeds to be used by the
Commissioner of Plant and Structures
for rebuilding the ferry terminals at
the foot of Broadway, Brooklyn, and
Grand Street, Manhattan, and for the
purchase or construction of ferry boats
for the municipal operation of ferry
between the two points.

the negro and woman wage earners
was bitterly denounced.
The committees report rejecting the
constitutional amendment to give
women industrial equality" defended
the Federation's stand on women in
industry and cited efforts to get bet
ter wages and working conditions for
them.
1t declared that only few unions
were discriminating against women and
for that reason disapproved the amend
ment and urged that chose interna-
tional and national organizations which
do not admit women to membership
give early consideration for such adj
mission"
Equal rights for women in industry
was voiced by delegates from the
cigar makers and the laundry workers
unions, who declared, eff woman does
a mans work she should receive a
mans pay" All declared that organ
lied labor should protect the women
wage earners.
w. D. Mahon, president of the Anal
gamated Association Of Street and
Electric Railway Employees of Amer
lea, declared that his organization
would not allow the Federation to
dictate to it in the matter Of woman s
labor. He said he was in favor of pro-
lection for woman workers, but he did
not believe that the "back platform of
streetcar was the place for woman"
The defeated constitutional amend
ment would have provided for the issu-
ance of separate charter by the Fed
Grafton to a woman's local without the
consent of the union having jurisdic-
tion over the particular trade.
The negro question arose on the re-
port of the committee on laws, which
disapproved a resolution calling for
the suspension of unions that discrim-
mated against negro workers. The
committee, however, was upheld by
overwhelming vote.
Reply Made by Gompers
Replying to question from the floor
as to whether it was possible to force
any affiliated union to wipe out the
"color line.' President Gompers said:
"The American Federation of Labor
has previously declared that it is the
duty of all workers to organize regard
less of sex, nationality, race, political
belief or color.
"The Federation, however, cannot
force this view upon individual or
affiliated unions with out their consent"

future call into conference at any time
the directors of the Federal Reserve
banks from the twelve districts OF the
country and learn from them the condi-
tions as they exist.
The work already accomplished by
the Western bankers was discussed. 1t
was pointed out that the organization
of a banking pool for the relief of the
cattle raising industry is going to
bring very prompt, relief to that indus
try and afford 1t the necessary means
to tide over the present emharrass-
ment. The adjustment of the Federal
bank policy to the requirements of the
smaller banks is affording what seems
to be the needed relief to the agricul-
tural situation and it is believed that
with the harvesting of the abundant
crops in prospect the farming situa-
tion will be much improved.
Considerable time was given to the
discussion of the foreign exchange
problem and the promotion of Ameri-
can export trade. The difficulties of
the situation were thoroughly devel-
oped. The bankers generally deplored
the difficult situation in promoting
trade with foreign exchanges SO thor
oughly out of balance with our own
money. There was general feeling
tnaC II anything could be done TO as
courage or prevent speculation in ex-
change it would be helpful to the sit
uation. The general trend of thought
was that the promotion of our own
restoration is the best foundation on
which to enlarge our trade, but it was
freely admitted that the export of raw
materials at the present time, which
is essential not only to our basic in
dustries but even more essential to in
dustrial recovery abroad, must be en-
couraged by some provision for credits
which has not been hitherto arranged.
In discussing proposals to better for
eign exchange it was suggested that a
II, cans be found to bring about sus-
pension of the European issue of script
il the rates of exchange are to be i'm
proved. Expressions of opinion both
for and against the proposal recently
put forward of refunding the Allied
oebt into negotiable securities were
heard, while there were those present
who are understood to have said it
would be an excellent plan to cancel
the European debt and permit Europe
80 commence paying cash f~r her pur-
chases.

figures for 1921 {

The hgures Tor 1911 can only be es-
timated at present. Based upon the
budget figures, however, they show the
following: All departments, $240,042,-
872, of which the Board of Education
was allotted $50,720,880, or approx
mately 81 per cent-the lowest proper
ton in the last eighteen years.
However, it seems now almost GER
tain that the Mayor will be compelled
to make good the $27 100000 deficit. but
As the state will provide $7,055, 465 of
this, the total percentage received by
the Board of Education after the Mayor
has been compelled unwillingly in an
election year to take cognizance of the
school situation, will be approximately
29.5 per cent. Even this big unwilling
boost will not bring the percentage Of
his administration anywhere near that
of the Mitchell regime.

REVEAL THEIR ARMY TRAINING
Ex-Service Men ~lnstinctiveIy Line Up
When a Crowd Is Waiting to
Be Served.

Army training still manifests itself
In civilian life, and former soldiers
automatically fall into line when they
must wait to be served. In the army
the men spent a great deal Of their
time waiting In line for mess, drawing
stuff from the supply sergeant and "a
dozen other purposes.
The Old army training revealed it
self strongly during the recent hot
spell at the Brooklyn Central Y. NJ.
c. A., when apparently of the
10000 members sought to take adVan-
tage of the swimming pool. Crowds
Of young men stormed the locker
rooms each evening. The eX-Service
men set the example by lining up and
taking their turns to reach the gate.
AS each elevator disembarked its load
the former soldiers automatically went
to the rear. Younger men who had
not had this training and sought to
edge in far up the line were promptly
pulled out and sent to their station.
No eX-service man who has stood in
line to draw a pair Of socks or get n
mess kit full Of "Slum" will permit
anyone to get ahead Of him.

Auctralia's Geographic Position.

Australians exact position on world
maps, originally determined by Cap
tain Cook, the early explorer, was
brought into question recently when
wireless authorities. after direct check
ing by radio with standard time
clocks ut Lyons, France, said they be-
lieved there is an error Of perhaps
100 yards on all maps in Australians
north-south lines.
Seafarers who first sketched Aus
tralia's position based their calcula-
tioHs on the ~chronometer, the finely
made watch which keeps Greenwich
time. Corrections were made from
time TO time. until final checking by
cable was believed to be accurate.
Lately, however, Sydney wireless
men who have been listening to the
clock ticks at Lyons, say they have
discovered there is a perceptible loss
of time in transmitting the correct
seconds we the cable. The loss, 1t
Is said, led TO errors IN ~map-making.
