Parkins were the next witnesses. On
the night of the murder those two

Raymond Schneider was called

Only two witnesses, Drs. Anderson

through the lower branch.
The Alabama, Georgia and South
Carolina delegations were reported
tonight to be unanimous against sub
sidy. Representative McDuffie OF
Alabama, was absent and his views
could not be obtained direct. Repre-
sentative Overstreet of Georgia, Is
also absent. The colleagues, how
ever. declare them opposed to the
subsidy bill of the administration.
There was some doubt as to the at
titude of Representative Logan OF
South Carolina. To this bureau to-
night, however, he declared that he
would vote against the bill. the other
southern delegations are in great
majorities against the bill, and the
democratic party in the House Is like
wise overwhelmingly against it.

OPERATORS ARE
 AGREED ON PLAN
Predict Proposal Will Pave Way for Understanding
 With Miners Leaders

CHICAGO, Dec. 5.-A plan of settle menti, unanimously agreed upon by representatives of coal operators from 15 bituminous states here today will pave the way they predicted, for an understanding when they meet with the miners representatives tomorrow which will lead to a wage settlement. While the details of the plan were not given out, operators intimated that they had enough concessions to make the plan attractive to John l.. Lewis, mine union president.
 The plan was first drafted by com mittee composed of Charles O'Neill and J. H. Sanford. representing Penn sylvania operators; Hugh Shirkey. In diana Rice Miller, Illinois; Harry Fay Tor, the southwest, and E. S. Brooks, Wyoming.
 This committee first reported a plan operators said, based on district set clement, with the privilege of states grouping for any group settlement they might agree to, and carrying arbi- tration and a sliding scale of wages based on the market price of compet. ing coal fields.
 Following the submission of this, the committee was ordered to re- phrase part of it but operators said lit tie objection was voiced against the essential features of the plan and it is expected a plan along these lines will be submitted to Lewis and the miners representatives tomorrow

 PROBLEMS UP
 AT CONCLAVE
Harding and Cabinet Delve Into Question of Maximum
 Emigrant Quotas
DAVIS PRESSES CHANGE
Would Retain Present Limita- tions But Advocates Higher
 Standard of Entrants

WASHINGTON, Dec 1.-The whole problem of immigration was dis cussed at length today by President Harding and his cabinet and it was indicated afterwards that this would to be one of the subjects with which the executive would deal ir his forth coming annual message to congress
 While it was stated at the White House that MT Harding had made no decision as to policy at the cab inet meeting some administration of ficers were under the impression that MT Hardiig would propose con- tinuation of the present restriction law with certain amendments spon- sored by Secretary Davis and de- signed to raise the general standard of emigrants. Embarking for the United States. The labor secretary, it was said authoritatively, is op- posed to any increase of the exist ing three pre- cent limitation, at least until the tide of immigration from northern and western Europe reaches the quota allowed by low. Thus far the number of immigrants coming from those sections have equalled only about 50 per cent of the authorized maximum. On the other hand officials pointed out, the inflow from southern Europe has reached the permitted maximum each year with many thousands of those in that section seeking to come to this country.
 Amendments to the present law which Mir Davis is having pressed hard would provide for an examina- tion at embarkment ports of all immigrants aliens with particular re- ference to character and physical and mental conditions. There also would be a blood test. The exam inations would be conducted by pub lie health and immigration bureau officers stationed abroad
 The immigration problem as eX- plained today presents many per picking phases and any solution of it might have it's effect on general economic conditions over the coun- try. It was stated that unless a shortage of common labor could b2 relieved through. immigration, there would be a tendency toward higher wages for this character of help with attendant increases in prices and also the inducement for farm hands to flock to the industrial centers. On the other hand, atten- tion was called that a letting down or immigration bars might produce an over-abundance of labor, with re- sultant unemployment, a lowering of purchasing power.

TIGER VISITS PRESIDENT AT
 WHITE HOUSE
Meeting Described as Social Call; No Discussion of
 American Participation
DIFFERS VISIT TO WILSON
President Said to Rejoice That U. s. Had Not Assumed
 Mandates in Turkey

WASHINGTON, Dec. 5.-(By the Associated Press)-Georges Clemen- ceau visited the White house today and talked with President Harding for 40 minutes. But the subject nearest his heart-America partici- patton in European affairs-did not come up.
 The visit was described at the White house as merely social call of courtesy at which it was said serious problems of state were not discussed.
 The Tiger said tonight it was "a delightful visit" during which he gave the president his views about European conditions in general. He emphasized that he did not ask the president for any assurances, point ing out that he was merely a pri- vate citizen of France. and asserting he had gone to preach to the presi- dent, but to pay my regards.
 If Clemenceau's picture of condi- tions overseas had any effect on the administration foreign policies it was not indicated in comment at the White house later. With re spect to the Lausanne conference on the Near East, full participation in which has been suggested by Clemenceau, the president was said to feel that every proper influence of this government-and this in fluence was described as great-al- ready was being exerted in a man. ner believed to be in harmony with the best judgement of the world statesmen who were fully in touch with the situation.
