London, Aug. 10.-(By A. Pr
That modified proposals for relieving

conference of the Allied statesmen
either by the British or Belgians,

While in French quarters it was re-

London newspaper says it under

porary unconditional moratorium to
tide over Germanys August Is

ference will be called in Brussels in
September.
Officially, however nothing was
vouchsafed as to just what could
materialize when the statesmen
gathered in Downing street tomor-

Schanzer of Italy made the state
ment that in his opinion hope for
reaching LASTS of agreement be
tween the French and British was
not entirely gone.

UNDERWOOD'S VIEW

Senator Underwood of Alabama,
the Democratic leader, suggested that
the President would not have either
the time or the opportunity to work
out conclusion from the facts pre-
scented him in the many intricate
cases arising in the consideration Of
a tariff. Mr.. McCumbcr replied that
he did not want the President to be
governed entirely by the facts pre-
scented by the commission; that he
should take into consideration data
from the trade commission and state
and commerce departments.
The Democratic leader insisted that
the President, even il not bound by
the tariff commissions recommended
tionS as to the rates, should have
the benefits of such recommendations
Senator Lenroot took a similar posi-
ton and indicated that he might
propose an amendment requiring the
commission to make such recon-
mendations, with discretion left with
the executive as to their acceptance
CT rejection.
Constitutlonality of the flexible
tariff amendments We're directly
questioned by Senators Walsh of
Montana and Pomerene of Ohio,
Democrats. Senator Walsh declared
this was an astounding delegation
of the functions of Congress to the
executive. athorizins him to exercise
a power which no constitutional
monarch can exercise and 4 power
quite like in character that for the
the assumption of which Kings have
/ cen brought to the block"
no emergency block, however
grave" said Senator Walsh, can
justify the surrender into the hands
of the President of the taxing power
entrusted by the people to their
representatives in Congress, no mat
tor how profound may be his states
manship. nor how exalted may be
his character.
The fathers of this Republic
would have been Mortified at the idea
cf reposing in the President the
power to impose customs duties. to
raise or lower those duties, carrying
with it the opportunity to ruin or
enrich the citizen, to shower wealth
upon him like Of which Crocsus never
knew or Monte Christie ever dreamed
Of"
Like Senator Walsh, Senator Pomer-
ono cited prccedents to support his ar
gument against tho constitutionalltT
Of the proposals, and also he attacked
the proposition, advanced by support
ers, that the supreme court had held
that such a delegation of authority to
the president was valid. He argued

with those operators of the central

in the conference.
Approximately 20 per cent. of the
normal coal production of the central

the conference, but this proportion
did not deter President John l.. Lewis

Lewis.
None of the Illinois or Indiana as

There was too great a tendency
on the part of Great Britain to label
everything France suggested as poll

insistence upon most rigid controI

EAST ROADS TO FIGHT

New York, Aug. 10-(By A. P)-
AS western and southern transporta-
ton managers began to arrive here
today for the session tomorrow of
the Association of Railway EXecu-
tves to pass on President Harding's
new rail peace plan, indications were
that the no surrender" policy voiced
by l.. F. Loree, chairman OF hte
Eastern conference was vast gaining
momentum.
A concerted effort Of the Eastern
men to- strengthen their position was
seen in several informal conferences,
held this afternoon and tonight. at
which the newly arriving officials
were guests of local executives.
Officials of Southern and Western
daRoads were the first to arrive of
the zoo representatives of class one
| roads which arc expected to be rep
resented when tomorrow's confer
transportation history. is called at
the Grand Central Terminal.
The subterrancan drifting of senti-
ment against acceptance of piesi-
dent Harding's proposal, which until
today seemed to be confined to a few
OF the more belligerent eastern roads,
now appears to dominate among the
executives here for the conference.
Their attitude is that the strike is
already lost to the shop craftsmen
and that, by accepting the strike
leaders challene to a fight to the
finish" their shop forces soon will be
recruited to normal strength and the
power of the union disintegrated.
Southern and Western roads, how

question of their seniority status be
