JANGLE STARTS
AT CANNES OVER
NDEMNITIES
rum Disputes With France
Relative to Priority
Rights.
PAYMENT CONDITIONS
By FRANK E. MASON.

CANNES, France, Jan. 5.-When the
s5a1lied experts met today to work out
details of the agenda for the supreme
council meeting beginning Friday, it
became apparent that Belgian priority
in the matter of distributing German
indemnity was going to be one Of the
stumbling blocks threatening the sue
cess of the conference.
1t is understood the British will re-
quest Belgium to renounce her priority
rights to a share of the first two billion
gold marks paid by Germany.
In compensation the Belgians would
receive a promise that Britain and prob
ably America would not press for pay
ment Of loans to Belgium which had been
guaranteed by Belgium's priority indem-
nifty rights.
Your correspondent is able to give the
outline of a tentative program arranged
at London covering the distribution of
German Preparations. 1t was planned to
use this program as a basis for discus
sion, changing it from time to time as
the necessity arose. Under its terms
France would secure her long wished for
abrogation Of the Aug Is agreement,
which divided Germanys first one billion
gold marks (aIready paid) between Brit
ain and Belgium to cover the costs Of the
British and Belgian armies Of Occupa-
ton.
Under the August agreement It was
held that Frances income from the Saar
Basin with its rich coal mines would
cover the cost Of her army of occupa-
ton.

THE LONDON
PROPOSAL.


Germany's first billion, the allies agree
ing that the income from the Saar Basin
not be counted toward defraying the cost
of French military occupation. 1t was
expected that in view Of this concession,
France would consent to delay further
German payments.
1t was suggested that Germany pay
SOC, 600 600 gold marks in four monthly
nstallments-January, February, March
and April 10. Then Germany would lie
given a respite until 1928 Added to the
original billion paid by Germany. the
total 900, 100000 gold marks-would be
divided as follows:
England, 100000; France, 300, 600 600;
Italy, 10000, 900; Belgium, $40 100000
One condition would be that France get
her cash Immediately. The French sen
ate and chamber OF deputies have been
heckling Premier BRAND, insisting that
Germany be made to pay in full and that
France get her share Of the indemnity
gold at once.
Premier Lloyd George fs said to be
insisting that the submarine disarmament
question and Preparations are closely
linked. France is countering with the
demand that under the principle of the
Versailles treaty, England should enter
close defense alliance with France.
QUESTION OVER y--....
NEAR EAST.
Despite NJ. Brands insistence upon
closer relations between France and Eng
land it is certain that some friction
viii develop when the Near East is
taken up and the British foreign min
ister, Marquis Curzon, begins seeking
light upon tie French treaty with the
Turkish natiOnalists.
The British and French premiers had
hoped to work out the agenda for the
supreme council but found themselves
running upon obstacles which made 1t
impossible. Consequently the task was
turned over TO the experts.
Lloyd George holds that it is necessary
to discuss the general European economic
crisis if the reparations problem is to be
solved. The British premier is expected
to make long exhaustive speech at the
opening Of tha supreme council meeting
outlining a world economic program.
1t is believed Lloyd George hopes to
rival the effectiveness and prestige Of Sec
rotary Hughes great naval reduction
speech at the opening Of the Washington
conference.
The British and French premiers al
ready have discussed the proposal in
ternat1onal economic conference with
Russia and Germany participating and
ranging the program for it.
POSITION OF
PREMIER BRAND.
Premier BRAND Is going to concen-
trate his efforts upon the consummatfou
of an Anglo-French alliance, hoping to
succeed where Clemenceau failed. If
BRAND is able to bring about the treaty
he will be in position to crush the op-
position of Clemenceau's followers in the
chamber of deputies.
1t is learned from reliable source that
France does not expect any support from
George Harvey, the American observer.

NATHAN STONE x NEW OFFICER OF
 COLLEGE LEAGUE

At the close of a two-days' session of the New England Business College Association, held at Providence and Woonsocket, R. l., during which con vocation papers were read by school men from Providence, Woonsocket, Lowell, Lawrence, Pittsfeld, Worces- ter, Salem, Boston, Northampton, Nashua, Manchester and several other New England cities, the election of officers for the coming year took place, and New Haven was honored in the selection of Nathan B.

 The mayor of Providence was one of the speakers at the banquet held at the Biltmore and he spoke in most complimentary terms of the work ot the private commercial schools Tn training, not only for clerical posi- tions, but for executive positions as we'll.

RAILROADS MUST LIVE UP TO THEIR
 AGREEMENTS

Chicago, Ill, Dec. 8-Agreements reached by collective bargaining be- tween union heads and railroad ex- ecutives must be carried out by both parties, the United States Railroad Labor Board rules.
 In two decisions of far reaching effect the board demanded that both roads and workers live up to agree ments made by their representatives
 The board decided that shops of the New York Central at Elkhart, Ind, must remain on piecework basis. The workers vote favored piece work.
 The second decision, in a compar- atively minor case, was against the railroads, but upheld the same prin- ciple that agreements reached by col lective bargaining must be followed out
 : The Great Northern railroad reach ed an agreement with heads of the Photographers union that the men should work from 9 a. 1n to p. n1., with an hour for lunch. John Pelf- scma, in charge of small station for the road, was required to work from 10 a. m. to 7 p. m., the union com plained The board ordered over time be paid after D. m 5

The present status of affairs as it related to the striking shopmen and the New Haven road and the facts relative to the arrest of Organizer Schleifcr were presented clearly and in detail by John ]. Egan, general or ganizcr for the International Asso- citation of Machinists, and by Edward Hotchkiss, representative of the Dis trict Organization of MachIniSts.
 After the matter had been present. ed by these speakers, the delegates took a hand and discussed the situa- ton most thoroughly and 1t was quite evident that they were we'll posted and prepared to act with determina ton.
 On every hand were heard cxpres sions of faith in the innocence of Or ganizer Schleifer and the belief that he was the victim of a frame-up.
 The delegates urged that definite and concrete action be taken to the end of placing back of Schleifer the entire moral and financial support of the organization with the result that the following resolution, presented by Joseph Pede of Cigarmakers' Local No. 30, was unanimously adopt ed:
 "Nhereas, The members of the Railway System Federation employed on the New York, New Haven X Hartford Railroad, have been .en- gagged in a justiiable strike against the said road for the past five months, and
 "Whereas, Ernest Schleifer, an or ganizer of the International Associa- ton of Machinists, while engaged in assisting the strikers, in legitimate manner, was at the request of the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad Co.,, or it's agents, placed un- der arrest, and held under excessive

DAUCEERTY'S WRIT FAILS;
 SHOP MEN STANDING FIRM

Chicago, Dec 9.-The Daugherty y injunction has failed to drive railroad shop men back to their employment, and the policy now is to ignore these workers and their effort to stop wage lowering of shop conditions.
 These workers show that their movement is no longer "strike," as they have been locked out since last July, when they accepted President Harding's peace settlement. This of fer has, been rejected by g trunk lines and 57 short lines, employing approximately 200, ,ooo workers. These trunk lines and their feeders" are dominated by high finance and in clude such systems as the PennSyl- vania, Santa Fe, Reading, Burlington, Southern Pacific, Illinois Central and Norfolk X Western.
 These railroads and their packers no longer cry: "The shop men are de lying government" Ii would appear that when the railroads, by superhu- man effort, and disregard for life and property, maintain a semblance of service, the nation is not in danger.
 Attorney General Daugherty has stopped making stump speeches against the shop men and ti1nid folk are no longer awed by his recital of how he rescued civilization from the abyss of revolution and ruin.
 The program now is to maintain a policy of silence. This, the railroads and their allies believe, will aid them, rather than have newspapers discuss

courts for their assumption of author lty. "It IS necessary, If we aim to restore the control of our government to the people," he said, "that every attempt at judicial assumption of power or the attempt at legislation to restrain freedom of assemblage, speech and the press must be stop ped" He attributed to "unquestion- ing allegiance to the party" much of the political evils of the present and past. In breaking this power of par ty, he declared, was the hope of real control by the people.
 In a speech that should make the ears of Secretary of the Treasury Mellon jingle, Congressman Frear re ! ferred to the ease with which cor taxation. The internal revenue coin missioner's office, which is a unit of the treasury department, is controlled by lawers of little experience, said Mr. Frear The solicitor of >that office, who passes ,on millions of tax ationS, was an usher in the White House only few years ago. Why was this inexperienced boy placed in this job? And only recently he pass ed the job on to his brother-in-law That and other matters connected with the treasury am prepared to prove, and I intend asking for con gressional investigation"
 The conference closed with dinner attended by more than 400 men and women from every section of the country. The speakers included Sen ators-elect Brookhart of Iowa, Ship stead of Minnesota, Frazier of North Dakota and Wheeler of Montana. These men told the same story of villifcation and in Qne case threatened lyncliing by the agents of privilege because they stood for the people. A feature of the dinner was the oratory of Toastmaster Edward Keating, former congressman from Colorado and a member of the labor group, in introducing Senator La Toilette, who was hailed as ''the leader of the pro- gressive forces of Americai"

Senator-Elect Dill
 Opposes Injunction

Seattle, Dec. S,-In a public ban quet tepdered Senator-elect Dill, he scathingly denounced the Daugherty injunction and declared 1t one of his purposes to work for the enactment of national legislation that will prohibit the in injunction in labor disputes. He also announced opposition to the Cummins-Es law and the railroad labor board. Opposition to govern ntent boards attempting to regulate wages and working conditions were also condemned by the speaker, who said that where labor boards are to be established he will demand legis- lation making it mandatory for such labor boards to consider the living wage as the lowest minimum that can be paid, and that such wage be regarded only as the minimum.
 Senator-elect Dill declared that the labor forces of the state united in supporting his candidacy in larger degree than ever before
 The speaker closed by decalring that he received a mandate from the people of this state to carry out cer- tain pledges and should the interests of his party interfere at any time with his obligations to the people he will ignore the party.

fatalities, wrccks, delayed trains and broken down equipment that will in crease as the weather becomes more severe.
 When the anti-union press was molding a frothy public opinion to justify Daughcrty's injunction the Strikebreakers were almost defed.
 We must protect our loyal men, " said the railroad managers. The shop men insisted that seniority was not an issue "1f you will settle our grievances we will pit our skill against the strikebreakers when we return to work, and may the best man Win," was the answer of the shop men to the seniority cry
 The shop men show the hypocrisy of the seniority claim by pointing to offers to them to return to work in their former positions if they accept the company union" and other con ditions they have no part in creating.
 The trade union movement of this country must not be fooled by the complete change of front by railroad thirds of these workers who were de nounccd as enemies of civilization q few months ago are on the streets, and no reference is being made to them They arc idle because they re fuse to accept the company union" that the railroads have established in the hope that workers will take this substitute for collective bargaining.
 Organized labor should aid these workers in every way possible.

Washington, Dec 8.-Non-partisan- ship has been intensified as the result of notable two-day conference in this city, called by the peoples legis- lative service, Senator La Toilette, chairman, and Congressman Hudd1es- ton, vice chairman.
 The outstanding feature of the con ference was the determination to face facts and the knowledge that privilege is not invulnerable. Not the slightest reference was made to a third party Attending the conference were many senators-elect and congressmen-elect as we'll as members of congress There was no attempt to adopt rigid program, or to pass highsounddng impossible resolutions, or to outlaw dissenters. Instead, each member oi congress may go his own way, but il he wants to deliver effective blows for progressive legislation voluntary afflliation with the progressive group will make that. possible.
 The purpose of the conference was clearly stated by Senator La Toilette at the opening session. He said ii was intended to carry out the original vice, namely, to prepare legislation
