EUROPE BANKS

Vanderlfp Cables from Genoa That
Most of Them Are "In Varying
Degrees of Insolvency"

Washington, Mag 1S.-Most cen

banker, said in a cabled review OF
the Genoa conference, sent to the

The plan for a conference at Lon

ised little of immediate result, he
added, and their proposed cooper

Describing the Genoa conference
as "a clinic" which was circum-
scribed in the type of diseases
which it might discuss, Mr.. Wander
lip recommended that the United
States enter the proposed London
financial meeting, but only with an
understanding that "our federal re-
serve system be kept free from
alien commitments" He commend
ed the Washington government for
the attitude it has maintained to-
ward Europe and said the chamber
should refrain from embarrassing
it by suggestion.

TARIFF BILL IS
FACED BYLONG
SENATE DEBATE
Lodge Says 1t viii Be
Considered Until
Passed.

Washington, May 1S.-Senate Re
publicans and Democrats were in
accord today on at least one point
with regard to the administration S
tariff bill-that it will be before
the senate for long time.
Formal notice was given by Sen
ator Lodge of Massachusetts, the
majority leader, that it was the in
tention of those in charge of the
Legislation. to keep it under con-
sideration practically continuously
until it was. passed, irrespective of
the time required.
Announcement was made by SEN
ator Underwood of Alabama, the
minority leader, that it was the
purpose of the Democrats to debate
the bill for weeks, not for the pur-
pose Of delay, but to let the coun-
try know what was in it.
Flags Stacker SolOns.
These announcements were forth
coming in the course of a stormy
session of the senate last night,
which wound up with a. fiery speech
by Chairman McCumber of the fl
nance committee, in charge of the
tariff fill, who invited Republican
senators absenting themselves on
roll calls either to stay on the job
or resign
Senator McCumber said he could
not expect the Democrats, who did
not believe in the bill. to furnish a
quorum, but that he did expect the
Republicans, who believed in the
bill, and who could attend the ses-
sions, to remain on the job If they
did not, he declared, they should
resign and let their states send to
the senate men who would do so.
Can't Keep Quorum.
The senate had difficulty during
the early hours in keeping a quo
rum for last nights session, the
fifth that had been held after sun
down for consideration of the tar
iff measure. There were seven roll
calls before sustained attendance
of a bare majority could be had,
and meantime the sergeant-at-
arms had been directed to re
quest" the presence of the alb
sentees.

Flames.

Rome, May 1S.-(By the Associ-

picturesque charitable institutions

Darkness Adds Horror.
Nurses and doctors quickly clear

and in the next ward, three Of the
patients crawled out At the mo-

electric lights were extinguished,
adding to the horror of the situa-

heavy, grinding noise and the pave

chronic patients and making ac-
cess to the wards impossible.
Two Wards Destroyed.
Caraginieres, royal guards,
nurses and doctors made heroic ef-
fort to save the patients, rushing
through the smoke and fire and

Washington, D. c., May 1S-
America must sit down and talk
things over with Europe; basis for
economic cooperation must be
found; the United States cannot af-
ford to play a waiting game too
long-this is the sentiment of the
majority of the delegates to the con-
vention of the United States Cham
Der of Commerce as reflected not
only in public discussion but pri-
vate comments.
A gathering of business men type
here today is not usual in the ma
tional capitol but occasional and
what is being said on the subject of
international relations carries more
weight because the chamber of com
merce is non-political and non
partisan. Republicans in the con-
Vention of business men are as out
spoken in their conviction that
America must play a more active
part as are Democrats. incidentally
the criticism of the Republican ad-
ministration by the Republicans is
one of the most significant things
one hears in the lobbies where bus
mess men are gathered.
Criticize Harding.
While the criticism is directed at
the slow speed of congress and its
factiOnalism, enough is said about
the hesitation of President Harding
to lead congress to indicate that
business men want more action and
less drifting. Those who have sup
posed that congress alone was the
subject of scrutiny would be dis
| illusioned to hear what the business
men are saying about the need for

Former Bull Mooser Gets
Nomination for the
Governorship.

Philadelphia, May 1S.-Returns
from 7,543 out of 1884 election dis
tricts in Pennsylvania, in Tuesdays
primary so far tabulated shows a
majority of S,O27 Tor Clifford Pin
chot for the Republican guberna-
torial nomination over Attorney
General Alter.
Philadelphia, Pa, May 1S.-(By
the Associated Press)-A steady
increase in his lead over Attorney
General George E. Alter for the Re-
publican nomination for governor
Of Pennsylvania was maintained to-
day by Clifford Pinchot, former
state forester, who was prominent
in the Progressive party movements
led by Theodore Roosevelt in 1912,
and 1914 Pinchot jumped into the
lead early last night when. about
seven thousand of the 1884 dis
triets in the state had reported
their unofficial returns from Tues
days primary, and nearly every ad-
ditional district heard from during
the night increased his majority.
With 426 districts missing, Pin
chot early today had lead of T.
639, the unofficial vote in the T.
sos districts reporting giving him
a total of 495, 5,442, against 4S7,S03
for Alter. Pinchot obtained his
lead from districts outside of Phila-
delphia and Pittsburgh, and as most
of the missing districts are in sec
tons where Pinchot showed the
greatest strength, his advantage
was expected to grow as more re-
turns were received.
Gives Women Credit.
Women played a big part in the
result. Hundreds of them were in
the thick of the campaign in all
sections of the state in the interest
Of Pinchot. Pinchot women's COM
mittees were organized in nearly
all the larger cities and many of
them toured the state in his behalf,
Mrs. Pinchot, in statement today,
said it was the women who had
brought about the victory"
at is impossible to express what
We owe to the women workers"
she said. at was not only the
leaders, but those in the everyday
walk of life, who brought about the
final result. 1t is springtime and
there has been many a postponed
house-cleaning that my husband
might ride to victory.
"One thing has been very notice
able. The women work entirely on
principle If they think a certain
candidate the right one and man
who stands for the proper ideals,
they will spare nothing to make
him successful. The men cling to
party and ties of friendship, but
the women have proved by their
whole-hearted support that they
believe in clean and honest govern
ment"
