 2--Inauguration of widespread campaign of education to induce the public to conserve fuel and to teach them how to use substitute fuels.
 One of the suggestions, it was re- ported, was that the r. S bureau of mines send engineers to various com munities to meet dealers. consumers and civil officials and offer expert ad- vice on the use of substitute fuels.
 Contrary to earlier reports the con- ference was not attended in person by governors of any of the states in- volved. All, however, sent represen- tatives authorized to act for them. Among the agencies represented were the American Railway association, of- ficers of all the coal carrying roads of the eastern and middle Atlantic states, national coal association, Am erican wholesale association, national retail merchants coal association, Am erican petroleum institute.

STEVENS AND SHAW OF
 PORTLAND WILL COACH
Pacific Coast Oarsmen Ten tatively Named to Take
 Charge at Harvard <.

Cambridge, Mass, Aug. 2S.-Sub- ject to the formal approval of the Harvard athletic committee, Edward A. Stevens of Portland, Ore, will coach the Harvard varsity crew next year. This was announced today in a joint statement by John Richardson, chairman of the Harvard advisory rowing committee, and B. M. Henry, captain of the varsity crew. Stevens will be assisted by Samuel Shaw, also of Portland, Ore.
 Stevens rowed at Cornell under Coach Courtney in 1908 and 1909 and coached at Cornell under Courtney in 1911.
 'The Washington style of rowing" :" said the statement "has been largely patterned on the Courtney stroke. In their essentials the two styles are highly similar. It is believed that un- der that direction of Coach Stevens there will be uniform style taught in all the rowing at Harvard this year.
 Shaw who is expected to devote most of his time to the freshman crew was captain of No. on the winning crew of the University of Washington this year.
 Stevens comes to Harvard" the statement continues, with the enthu- siastic backing of many oarsmen on the Pacific coast. For the past eight years he has rowed on the crews of the Portland boat club. He has twice been captain of the club. As an amateur he has been the active coach of the crews on which he has rowed
 Several members of recent Wash ington crews and the stroke and an- other member of the Navy Olympic championship crew have been rowing under Stevens at the Portland boat club. Stevens has also helped to or ganize rowing at Reed college, Port land, and comes with the strongest recommendation as to ability, tact and character from President ShoIz | of that college.
 we rowed with Stevens and went | over the situation with him thor | oughly at Portland early this month. i we believe him 10 be the right man | to undertake the work.
 Shaw, as captain of the Washing ton crew, proved himself an unusu- ally capable leader He had the re- spect of his men and greatly assisted in developing the spirit which made possible the victory of his crew at Poughkeepsie over several strong eastern crews"
 Harvard and Yale will fight it out on the Thames next year with each crew coached by a former Pacific coast expert Yale went to the uni versity of Washington to get Coach Ed. Leader.

If German Debt Is Reduced, Then Percentage of Allied Shares Must Be Revised, Premier Declares.
By The Associated Press.

By The Associated frese.
 Paris, Aug. 2S.-The Belgian gov ernment in it's reply to the last Brit ish reparations note stands with France on the principal points of con tention maintaining that the legality of the Ruhr occupation has been es- tablished by the previous action of the allies, including Great Britain, and that evacuation of the Ruhr val ley is impossible on simple promises from Germany.
 Belgium Claims Priority
 The reply given out at the Belgian embassy here this morning dwells particularly upon the justice of Bel gium's claim to priority in repara- tions payments. It points out that thus far Belgium has received only 2,000, 900 gold marks more than Great Britain.
 Foreign Minister Jaspar asserts that "the whole problem of repara- tions and the question of inter-allied debts are definitely bound together" and he proposes a new method of procedure in the negotiations sug gesting conversations among the al lies without reverting to the old sys- tenn of conferences"
 Might Cut British Share. ..
 M. Jaspar remarks that if a reduc- ton in Germany's debt is necessary the balance she is obliged to pay ought to apply to material damages only, This might be understood as meaning the elimination of pensions from the allied claims on Germany, thus reducing the British share to an infinite small percentage.
 The Ruhr regime, the note says, is what the Germans have required it to be by their violence, and resistance, It
