While there is no diminution in ths governments annou1eed deterrnina- ton regarding the DardaneIlss, g semi-offlcial statement Issued thaa evening seems to fndicats some modI- flcation of the British policy and It's attitude toward Greece in Thracs which 1t may be assumed ia the o,xt- como of the Paris negotiations in which Lord CurEon. the British nnr- eisn secretary. participated
 This statement declared Great Britain was seeking nothing for.ser self, but she would insist on nsuh~s- ization of the Dardansliss and fr& passage of the waterway unter tks league of nations or some other in- ternational organization. An other questions were secondary.
 Charge Pro-6sreaIx Axfftuas
 The negotiations In Paris hawe not been completed but accordinw to ad vices Premier Poincare fs hopoful that by tomorrow n formula will be found which will enable the af3ies to send a note to the Turks suxzest- ing conference to arrange . peace between the Turks and the Greeks.
 One of tn strongest charges made against Premier Lloyd Georg~z near eastern policy, especially by the labor party, has been it's pro-Greek char acter. The labor party announced that 1t was unwilling to engage in war for the fuifilimenk of Crack ambitions. It has been Commented on as strange that after th> Pre- mier's conference with tho labor leaders Wednesday no report of the speeches made were pubfiahed by either side.
 This silence was considered h some quarters to indicate that sorns explanation or concession to inc viewpoint of labor was made by the Premier.
 According to Constansinopia sd- vices received here, Mustapha Kemar rasna' tho Turkish nationalist lead or. demands within 4s hours guar antees Tor the evacuation of Traco by the Creeks. On the other bar6. the Greek government sxpres..n ths strongest determination 10 hold Thrace at all costs. France is sup posed 70 Dc willing to ses the Trriss pack in eagtern Thracs. and sf an agreement between tha British and French governments en this rnntter is reached. 1t is believed Greece would not be likely to oppose the VieWs or united entente.
 Soldiers Volunteer
 The foreign office has no conffru- ation of the report that Renal has fixed limit of 4s hours for the carrying out of the required guar antees or of any advance movement by the Kemalist troops The govern ment. however. Is continuing it's pre- parations for any eventuality.
 According to the view expressed in official quarters the issue lies in kemaPs hands. There is no secret about the strength of the force that tho nationalist leader is able to put In the field.

HARDING t MAY BE|
 RENOM|NATED HEAD| .OF RESERVE B0ARD|
Poll Being Conducted to Find If His Denomination Would Be Confirmed-Senator
 Mclean Active
By HuGH w. RopERTs

Washington Bureau, The Age-Herald,
 800 Davidson Building.
 Washington. September 22.--(Spe- cial.)-That W. P. c. Harding. whose term as governor of the Federal Re- serve BSard expired on August 9 last, will be renamed by President Harding for the position, was the opinion ex- pressed today by Senate leaders who are conducting poll of the Senate to ascertain whether Governor Hard ing could be confirmed if nominated by the President.
 Senator Reed or Pennsylvania be- gan a poll of the Senate Wednesday and Senator Mclean, chairman of the Senate banking and currency com mittee, and Senator Hitchcock of Me- braska are also conducting a poll in an informal way to find if a suf- ficient number of votes can be ob- tained to assure confirmation of the former head of tte reserve boar
 Senator McLeKr denied that Ffeii- dent Harding had definitely notified him of his willingness to renomi- nate Governor Harding, but expressed the hope that the President would do so. It Is thought likely that the President may make a recess ap- pointment of Governor Harding, which would make it possible for him to remain at the head of the reserve board for SO days after Congress convened on December 5.
 Mellon Favorable
 Secretary of the Treasury Mellon has been one of the outstanding sup porters of Governor Harding. as he has been impressed by the indorse- ments of bankers in all sections of the country. While others have been pessimistic during the interim, Mir. Mellon has evidenced satisfaction that the President ultimately would make up his mind to offer Governor Hard- ing another term.
 The chief opponents of Governor Harding are John Skelton Williams, former comptroller of the currency, who has furnished ammunition" to certain members of Congress, and Senators Tom Heflin of Alabama. and Tom Watson of Georgia.
