GATHERED "FINE CROPS"
Declared Premier Lloyd George, Speak
ing Of Conference.

Genoa, May 10 tBy the Associated
Press ~ Prime Minister Lloyd George
of England in his yaledictory speech
to the Genoa economic conference TO.
dav said the conference had gathered
.fine crops" namely the meeting TO be
held at The Hague, the non aggression
pact. and the reports of the finance,
transport and economic commissions,
which he said alone justified the hold
ing Of the conference.
These results must be Incorporated
into living practice, however. the pre-
mier added, in order to aid in restor-
ing European yigor and prosperity.
Mr.. Lloyd George won great aap-
plause when he arose to deliver ms
address. He was in fine form and IN
a good humor.
aWe are now at the end of the most
remarkable conference ever held in the
history OF the world" he said. "The
Genoa conference will forever be an
inspiring landmark in the pathway of
peace.
He proposed resolutions of thanks to
Premier Facta and Foreign Minister
Schanzer Of Italy and paid glowing
tributes to the hospitality of the ltai-
ian people.
Mr.. Lloyd George called attention to
the bad effect the Russian memoran-
DUN had had on the world, and he
warned the Russians that if they de-
sired to win success at The Hague II
would be better for them not to en-
ter eloquent presentations of the doc
trine of reputation of debts. Such
a course was unwise when one wanted
to borrow money, he remarked.
Europe, said the premier, was anx-
ious to help Russia, but Russia must
accept the code of honor which Eu-
rope had as an inheritance from cen
turies of hard working, honest people.

PRESIDENT HARDlNG'S
TRIBUTE TO THE LATE
COLONEL YOUNG

1T is a pleasure, which indeed
I count a duty as well, to testi-
fly my very high opinion and re-
gard for Colonel Young. A grad
uate of the West Point Acad-
emy, he spent his life in the
Army serving with real distinc-
tion. My recollection is that al
though he had been retired
some time before the United
States entered the world war,
he promptly rendered his SER
vices and was greatly distress
ed because they were declined
because of his age and physical
condition. Colonel Young was
a credit to the service and a
distinguished honor to the race
from which he came; a race
that in the world war carried it's
full part and acquitted itself
with utmost credit. 1t is highly
fitting that you and your asso-
ciates should pay him a tribute
of respect, and affection.
very sincerely,
(Signed) Warren C. Harding"
