More than 900 kilograms we're sent

The steel trust, as it happened, no
titled him that the price of steel 'of
$1.40 bars would at once be increased
to $3.50 and that the price would go
to 81 at a date in the near future.
Ford is quoted as saying:
II told them that l wanted no steel.

will not pay graft nor will pay an ex-
cessive price for steel. l could get

Coal is offered to me every day at an

buy $4,000 tons at $6 ton. Four dol
lars and half ton Is good price

II will not be party to profiteering.
That is why am going to shut down
until coal and steel profiteering are
over. Tolerate such conditions and
they will continue indefinitely.
There is no good reason why such
conditions should exist at all. It Is
all conspiracy to fleece the public.

ACID TEST I'm SENATE SHOWS
PROPONENTS LACK THE
STRENGTH.
PRESIDENT SILL OPPOSED
Little Time Found for Di
Senate With Coal and RI
Holding staoe-May v
It BY Weekend

Washington. presidential vote
on the pending soldiers compensa-
ton measure will mean its final dis
position for this session OF con-
gress. All hope of passing this leg
islation.A despite the disapproval OF
Mr.. Harding, abandoned. 1t is adj
mitted that sufficient votes for that
purpose cannot be obtained.
An acid test poll of the senate was
taken this afternoon by Republican
leaders. They found themselves at
least one vote short Of the number
required for enactment despite
presidential disapproval. This came
as q severe shock because It had
been vigorously contended that the
opposition erred In maintaining that
the bonus was beaten If the presi-
dent vetoes the bill, as is expected
by its antagonists.
The Borah- Underwood faction, op.
posing the bonus, claim 35 votes to
sustain the presidents veto. This fig
urs Is not admitted by the Repub-
lican leaders, but they say there is
sufficient strength to sustain the
veto and nothing more is necessary.
1t is stated by McCumber and all
those closely affiliated with the
bonus legislation that no actual In
timation has come from the presi-
dent concerning his purpose. They
VIII not predict what he will do, but
express the consiction that his ap-
proval will be given after all the
facts have been laid before him.
The. president has plainly told all
callers at the White House who in
quired regarding his attitude that
there has been no change and he
cannot approve the McCumber bill
until 1t carries the method of raisir 8
revenues, to meet payments. He has
declared at all times there has been
no abandonment OF this attitude.
Whom Republican leaders in the
senate sought to take the matter up
with the president and ascertain just
what he will do, they we're refused
an audience on the ground that the
coal and railroad strike required all
his attention. Since that time the
subject has not been discussed be-
tween the president and the Repub-
lican leaders.
But brief time was given the bonus
today as between the coal situation
and the letter of Secretary Hughes
generating Newberry all other ar
fairs were shunted aside. In fact,
short speeches by Underwood (Dem-
ocrat. Alabama) and Wadsworth
Republican, New York; afforded the
only reference to the bonus bill.
1t became evident that much time
will be consumed each day on the
coal famine and no suggestion. is
made for vote on the bonus before
the end OF the week.
The bonus was opposed by I'm
derwood on the ground that the
amount was mere pittance com
pared with what the former service
men are making in civil life. He
favored taking the utmost care Of
the disabled
Exceptions were taken by Wads
worth to the suggestion made by
McCumber that II the soldiers were
not allowed adjusted compensation
they will not be willing to Naid Their
country in the event of another war
He declared such an assumption was
unfair and unwarranted He repu
disted it on behalf Of the service
men.

Paris.-The negotiations in Berlin
hetweeen the reparations mission and
German government officials came to
an end without having produced any
compromise on the German repara-
tions question acceptable to both the
British and French representatives.
according to advices reaching French
official circles.
1t is now believed the reparations
commission will hold special meet
ing soon. at which it will try finally
to dispose of the question of grant
ing moratorium to Germany.
II the last minute guarantees Of
fered by the Germans prove to be as
unsatisfactory as previous proposals,
the British are expected to try to
postpone action by the commission in
order to delay the carrying out Of
penalties independently by France
with the hope that some way out OF
the difficulty may be found.
There has been much speculation
as to what form the French penalties.
If carried out. would take. Nothing
has been Indicated officially. but all
reports from Germany seem to agree
that the first move would be occupa
ton of the Ruhr section. The French
government will take no action until
after the reparations commission has
made Its decision. it was said in Off
cial quarters. When the commissions
decision has been made known the
cabinet will meet and finally approve
Of plan OF action which already has
been drawn up.
It was suggested by some obsery.
ers that Premier Poincare may delay
the proposed penalties until the re-
convening of the Chamber OF Depu.
tise the first week in October, in or
der that the government may proceed
with its program backed up by q
vote OF confidence.
