CBy Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, March 1S.-Gov-
ernment officials were represented
today as being without hope that the
threatened coal strike can be averted
or that the proposed conference be-
tween the operators and miners would
be arranged.
1t was indicated that government
intervention at least in the prelim-
inaries of the situation, was practic-
ally at an end. Holding that strike
call April / is almost inevitable, gov
ernment officials according to the
view presented today on high author

REAL BUCOL|C WEEK
ENJOYED BY HOUSE
IN DISCUSSING BILL
PALLADIUM NEWS BUREAU

WASHINGTON, March 13.-Last
week the house of representatives had
a real bucolic time. The annual ap-
preparation bill for the department OF
agriculture was under consideration
and pleasant hours were spent by all
members for those congressman who
are not actual dirt" farmers at least
make claim to being town farmers.
Even Jim Mann of Chicago. the Re
publican floor leader, boasts OF one
of the best back yard gardens in the
Windy City. All things agricultural
were discussed, from free garden
seeds to the gypsy moth.
Rep. Mann thought the farmers were
expecting too much of the government
in the way of eliminating animal and
insect pests. He is anxious to stem
the tide toward paternalism In govern
ment. He scorched the wings of the
gypsy moth with his sarcasm. They
were not much of a scourge, he said.
and their activities were confined
mostly to Massachusetts, so let that
state look after them. And he was
opposed to having Uncle Sam fight
coyotes except on public land. Let
the private individuals whose property
was destroyed by coyotes go out and
hunt them, and he gave the same ad-
vice to those land owners in the cen
trail west who have been plagued
with the corn borer; that was the
way the people out west fought the
grasshopper, the chinch bug and the
army worm
Could Kill Own Pests
Mr.. Mann told the house that his
garden had been visited by rabbits
and field mice but he had not yet
asked the government for an appro-
priation to be used in driving them
off. He would have the world know

AMERICAS RIGHT TO
RHINELAND EXPENSES
ADMITTED IN LONDON
(By Associated Press)

LONDON, March 13.-Although
Americas claim TO priority of payment
for the upkeep of the United States
army in the Rhineland has been fea-
tured in the news columns, the first ex-
tended comment appeared only today
The Daily Chronicle under the cap
ton: Americas bombshell," says:
'1ntrinsically the claim is not un-
and if the practical effect
is to make some of our continental
friends less Jealous to prolong the oc-
cupation of German soil this would be
quite as much to the taste of German
public opinion as to American"
The newspaper admits it may be
urged that as the United States is not
participating in the treaty of Versail-
les, it has no claim to money collected
under that treaty and that the more
correct course would have been to
claim it direct from Berlin under its
own treaty, but thinks the fact that
America undertook the Rhine occupa-
ton jointly with the allies does give
her some moral claim for joint reim-
bursement."
Out of Allies Share.
The Westminster Gazette, using the
same headling. says that there is not
much doubt that every penny the
United States takes will have to come
out of the allies share of the repara.
tions.
America already has intimated that
she thinks the whole reparations ques-
tion a proper subject for discussion at
Genoa" adds the Gazette, land we may
properly assume that this sudden and
unexpected insistence on her rights
as part of the same policy, and tha,
she wishes the curtain finally rung
down on the reparations farce. Very
| possibly also she wants to take her
troops away and considers this a sub
| tie way of persuading her European
associates to speed the party alley.

on, workmen trimming shade trees
across the street sawed off a limb
which fell on the primary wire of the
electric company. The primary wire
was pulled down to the secondary
wire which furnished the home with
current. This permitted the full $500
volts to pass through the house wir-

PACIFIC PACT
Query Persists in Debate De-.
spite Hughes Letter Taking
Responsibility Borah Ex-
plodes in Talk.
ARGUMENT IS HEATED
(By Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, March IS. = The
cific treaty and it's supplemental
agreement" persisted in senate de-
bate on the pact today despite Secre-
tary Hughes letter taking the respon-
sibility upon himself In the course
of the argument, Senator Borah, Re-
publican, Idaho, declared that circum-
stances surrounding the reservation
attached to the treaty by Mr.. Hughes
when it was signed presented in his
opinion "the most conclusive proof
that somebody else wrote the treaty.
The Idaho senator's assertion, COM
ing in the midst of the broadslde
against the treaty by Senator john
son, Republican, California, led to
passage between the two irreconc1l-
able leaders and Senator Lodge, of
Massachusetts, Republican, floor lead
er and a member of the arms delega-
ton Both Mr.. Borah and Mr.. john
son later insisted they had not meant
10 reflect on the veracity of Mr.
Hughes.
The authorship of the pact came to
the front when Senator Johnson as
serted that Before the ink was dry
on the treaty itself, Mr.. Hughes pre-
pared and had the delegates sign
reservation relating to the mandated
island of the Pacific" Senator Lodge
interrupted to say that the reservation
was really signed before the treaty.
Sees Uncertainty
$50 much worse" responded Sena-
tor Jackson. 1--WE find first correc-
tion of a treaty and then the treaty
itself. The American delegation was
so uncertain about the meaning OF the
treaty that they first executed an eX-
planation.'
"The delegation was not doubtful,
reported Senator Lodge.
But you demand this reservation
necessary certainly we thought 1t
proper"
1--WE thought it undesirable to leave
a doubt on that point"
who wrote the treaty with a doubt
in it?"
There wasn't any doubt in our
minds but we thought there might be
some one would find fault"
Senator Borah interjected a question
as to why the point was not settled in
the treaty itself. "Mr. Hughes has
stated" said Mr. Borah. that he
wrote this treaty Why then didn't
the idea come into Mr.. Hughes mind
when he was writing the treaty to in
clude the provisions about the man.

conclusive proof that somebody else

CURIOSITY NO CAUSE
FOR FINE, SAYS JUDGE

A great American prerogative-the
right to satisfy ones curiosity when
an accident occurs by nosing to the
front Of the crowd hung in the bal
ance yesterday while Police Judge
Hardison was considering the case of
Richard 3. Hunt, q Machinist, held on
charges Of disorderly conduct growing
out of his inquisitiveness or such an
occasion.
Mr.. Hunt said that his attention had
been attracted to the scene of an au-
tomobile collision some little distance
from where he stood and that when
he walked up to that point he learned
that one of the cars in collision had
been operated by a policeman by the
name of Franklin. who he de-
clared, was drunk and swearing;
that when he approached the scene
Franklin asked him what he had to
do with 1t, II he had seen the collision
and other questions. Mr.. Hunt said he
had told the policeman that he had not
seen the collision and that he had
nothing to do with ii.
Then. said Mr.. Hunt. Policeman
Franklin, under the influence of whis-
ky, ordered him to leave the scene and
that when he refused to move along
he was placed under arrest and taken
to the station house where he was
charged with disorderly conduct and
required to put up $25 collateral for
his release. which he did The police
man denied that he was drunk. Judge
Harrison. however. dismissed the case.
