London, Aug. '. - (By Associated
 Press)-The leading representative 0
 the entente allies today gathere'
 around the conference table ono
 more to discuss the questions of wa
 reparations, Germany's financial con
 dition and related issues. The meeting, the 18th within less than three years, was greeted by this mornings newspapers, without en- thusiasm and in some cases with al most despairing skepticisnn, The Times recalls that the numerous past conferences have never produced a solution of the problem burdenins Europe" and adds:
 From one point of view conditions have grown steadily worse and never since the conclusion of the treaty of peace have they been quite so bad as at this moment Europe is now at the mercy of forces that elude purely political calculations It is well that the conference Is meeting without pretensions; there will be more chance for common sense"
 Other papers while taking a less

 Divergent views are expressed re- gardins the proposals Premier Poin- care is said to be prepared to submit, some papers revealing 2, strong dis like for the French attitude and oth- CTS the Daily Telegraph for instance, commenting the very mild and somewhat negative sanctions an nounced as sequel to Frances ultima tum to Berlin.
 No time limit has been set upon the conversations which are expected to continuo for a week.
 Prior to the meeting of premiers, M. Poincare and his finance minister, M. De Lasteryrie, conferred with Pre- mier Theunis of Belgium and they were reported to have reached a com mon understanding as to the neces- sary measures respecting Germany.
 The delegates remained in confer ence until shortly after l o'clock, ! when they adjourned their sitting with the announcement that the con- ference was to reassemble at 4:30 l p. m.
 Today was bank holiday in Eng land and hundreds of excursionists and merrymakers gathered in Down. ing street long before the conference 1 opened. These crowds were soon oined by groups of American tourists, md the conference as a result had the arsest gallery of any post 0ar meeting that has been held in Lon ion.
 By a ruse, the several score news who were waiting the ar 'i,al of the experts in statecraft, were aken to the room of the prime min ster's secretary, while unknown to hem the entire personnel of the for ign delegations arrived in Downing 'treet and entered the conference com The incident caused much re- eminent among the correspondents vho had been waiting patiently to de- cribe the preliminary scenes and eN- hange a few words with various of he plenipotentiaries

Church-News in Brief.
 The much discussed gypsies. who have been more or less active in Der lin within the past week held their na- ttonal conclave in this town yesterday and local residents who were fortunate enough to pass the grounds or visit the gypsy camp claim that it was the most unusual sight they have seen in years.
 The camp for the gypsies is located next to the Picket bickyards, nd land owned by William Webster. Se- lectman George B. Carter and Prose- cutor Lewis, learning of the camp yes terday morning, started out for the place immediately after their dinner with the intention of ordering the roamers out of town.
 They did not carry out the full pur- pose of their visit, however, as the chief of the camp, who is known as Chief Frank, showed the local men a signed receipt which he had received from G. B. Picket for the rental of the land.
 The receipt. however, gave the gyp- sies the use of the land from Friday afternoon until Monday morning Prosecutor Lewis then told the chief that he, with his band of roamers. would have to leave town by today at least. This the chief consented to do as the conclave for the gypsies would be over at that time.
