tain Deliberations-Venize-

Lausanne, Nov. 30.-The allies,
at the request of the Russians,
have decided to postpone the first
sitting of the conference devoted
to the Straits situation until Mon
day.
49, NJ, TchitcheFin, Russiass-a-eAAiief
delegate, will not arrive here be-
fore tomorrow night, and NJ. Ea-
vowsky requested appointment
mainly because he wants the so
Wet foreign minister present. He
informed Lord Curzon. M Barere
and Marquis Di Garronia that Rus
sia was not content with the al
lies decision to keep her from par
ticipation in all the deliberations
of the conference.
The official reply to the Russian
petition contended that the invita-
ton originally extended to Russia
clearly explained that Russia was
bidden to Lausanne only for the
Straits negotiations and that there
fore there was no possible basis
for a misunderstanding. On the
different aspects of this question
the Russian delegates would be
given every opportunity to make
known their views.
The former Grecian premier,
Venizelos, who is continuing his Of
fetal conference activities without
his position being affected by the
Grecian executions at the meeting
Of the subcommission on Otto
man. debts. this afternoon told the
delegates that Greece was ruined
and could not pay farthing Of the
Turkish liabilities. The confer
ence had been planning to appor-
ton the debt between Turkey and
her former possessions, and NJ.
Venizelos was endeavoring to make
it clear that Greece could not
shoulder any debt for Western
Thrace.
I'VE might have taken our share
Of this debt after the treaty of
Sevres was signed he said, but
the Asia Minor campaign has made
us bankrupt
The entire question Of the Gre
clan executions, the withdrawal of
the British minister from Athens
and the resultant effect of this on
the relations between England and
Greece at the conference was gone
over tonight in the course of a
long consultation between NJ. Veni-
zelos and Lord Curzon.
NJ Venizelos declined to make
any comment, but the Indications
are that he is feeling generally
embarrassed in his relations to-
ward the conference. Nevertheless
all the delegations, including even
the English, are trying to prevent
the Grecian tragedy from endan-
gering the conference. which is re-
garded as too important to the
general peace Of Europe to be ar
fected by a Grecian internal ques-
tion

ter to Greece, who has Withdrawn

BUSINESS is
IMPROVING
Increase in Activity Noted in
Review of Business by
Federal Reserve
Board

Washington, Nov. 30.-Virtually
all basic industries in the United
States are showing increased pro-
ductive activity, according to the
federal reserve board, which, in a
review of business and trade condi-
tions made public today. reported
a generally improved situation in
the American business world.
The improved conditions. accord
ing to the. review, are reflected
first, in a greatly increased en-
ployment of labor: in industrial es-
tablishments; and, second. in an
unprecedented demand for freight
cars. Reports showed that on
November l, the greatest shortage
Of freight cars ever developed was
recorded, while Immediately before
and after that date the car load
ings were maintained almost at the
|. maximum.
Mill consumption of textiles was
heavy, the review stated. and add
ed that the mill requirements Of
cotton continued on increase,
which late in October and early in
November reached the highest in
the last two years. Silk and woolen
mills. the review disclosed, were
near capacity operation in the face
of a virtually unchanged wholesale
market and seasonal declines in
liooo ~ 1r1r oNn1C
1.-The increased production" the
review summarized, has been ac-
companied by continued increase
in the volume Of employment in
industrial esta blishments. The av-
erage pay per worker also was
larger but this was due in many
cases to increased hours of labor.
Railroad repair shops and equip
ment factories made the largest ad-
ditions to their forces and shortage
of skilled labor was reported in
steel mills and metal mills and by
building contractors
Despite the increased business
activity the board noted no in
crease in loans and discounts by
banks in the leading cities which
are members of the federal reserve
system. In fact, according to the
review, loans and discounts by
banks reporting showed small de-
crease between October Is and No
vember Ia. There were. however.
small increases in loans recorded in
the Southern and Western districts
and in New England, but these in
creases were more than offset by
reductions IN loans in the other
sections, particularly in New York
and Chicago.
