PRES. HARDING BLOCKS MOVE
 ON CONFERENCE

WASHINGTON, Dec. 29-In a let ter to Senator Lodge President Hard ing yesterday took definite steps to block Senate action on the matter by the direct request that the Senate should not adopt the proposals for a new International economic confer ence, as advocated by Senator Borah, in his proposed amendment to the Naval Appropriations bill. The Presi- dent declared that formal Congress sional action at this time would en- barrass him in negotiations which he is already conducting in that direc- tion. The President stated in the letter that while the Senate might properly advise" the Executive with regard to international negotiations, such action as that designed by the Borah plan might give false impress sions" to foreign powers. The letter went on to say that the Administra- tion is trying. to be most helpful" to the European situation which, it added, has been given "the most thorough and thoughtful considera- tion for many months' . ra
 Regarding negotiations for further disarmament, as proposed by Senator Borah, the President warned against action on the part of the United States which might be "a gesture of cannot be fulfilled until the nations directly concerned express a readi- ness for cooperation to such an end"

WASHINGTON, Dec. 29. - Advo- cacy of the Borah amendment was expressed in the Senate yesterday by Senator McNary, of Oregon, one of the active members of the Senate Agricultural bloc. Declaring him self opposed to the policy of isola- tion on the part of America toward world affairs, Senator McNary said: q do iiot know whether it~was the stubbornness of our distinguished President Wilson, the perversity of the able Senator from Massachusetts, or the eloquence of the Irreconcil- ables, which prevented the ratifica- tion of the Treaty of Versailles. Yet shall always think, as one of the mild reservationists, that much of the unrest and hatred existing among nations at this time would not have occurred if the Treaty containing the League of Nations covenant with the Lodge reservations had been rati- fled" 3sl5-

scheme to kill Ford, Kunath says the woman unfolded her plans with a calm deliberation that made his blood run cold. Many plans were discussed and abandoned as being "too risky" Kunath says. Plans We'll Laid
 The stage for the last act in the drama was carefully arranged Kun ath made an appointment with Mrs. Ford in park boulevard apartment to discuss final details. Hidden in an adjoining room were two officers Straith and another. The officers had previously cut hole in the wall be- tween the two rooms and placed a newspapers over this with small sits in 1t. Conversation between Mrs. Ford and Kunath was plainly over heard, it is said. For an hour and fifteen minutes they listened to Mrs. Ford discuss the killing with Kunath, heard her review her whole life with her husband, telling how she had played" him to propose and she fin ally "hooked" him, the officers as- sert.
 Mrs. Ford suggested that her hus- band be waylaid in his farm home or while doing the chores and slugged with a piece of lead pipe or other heavy instrument" Kunath declares. in telling of the alleged plot. "The body was then to have been hustled into an automobile and taken to a farm 30 miles away. It was then to be soaked in oil, covered with straw and set afire. The farmhouse was in a remote place and would burn to the ground before the fire could be ex- tinguished," Kunath swears Mrs. Ford told him.
 Precautions Taken
 Mrs. Ford even suggested that her husbands gold teeth be removed, so that in event the bones were dis covered there could be no indentifi- cation through false teeth.
 "She said that one plan which had entered her mind was to hire gun men to come to the farm, kill her husband, the hired man and shoot her through the arm, in fake robbery, but abandoned that because she wanted an absolute alibi," Kunath said
