GERMANY IS TOLD
To INCREASE BID.
IN BRITISH NOTE
Proposal Called Great Disap-
pointment-RepIy Is Con-
CiIiatory To France

LONDON, May 15.--Great 2ritain,
acting in the role of peace maker
has counseled Germany to increase
her offer of 10000, 100000 gold marks
TO settle the reparations account.
In a communication to Germany
signed by Lord Curzon, British for
eign minister, the government stated
the proposal OF Germany was great
DISAPPOINTMENT for the following
reasons:
L. The amount that Germany Of
fered was insufficient" and based on
loans the success of which is very
doubtful
9 Germany failed to offer "suf-
ficient guarantees" to France that
she would not promote a war of az
gresson in the future.
According to forecasts, the reply OF
Britain was decidedly conciliatory to
France Despite the fact that France
refused to dispatch a joint note with
England to Germany, the British gov
eminent saw fit to agree with France
that the sum offered was entirely
too small.
This is taken to mean. by many in
responsible positions. that Britain
and France will at not far distant
time. reach an agreement concerning
the reparations question.

ALLIED DEMANDS MAY
BREAK UP CONFERENCE
Want Foreigners Granted Special
Rights In Turkey

LAUSANNE, May 13.-The Near
East peace conference. in the opin-
ion of observers here, will break
down unless the allies back down
from their demand that foreigners
have special rights in Turkey.
In case the Turks induce the en-
tente to forego the demand that for
eigners be tried in special courts in
Turkey. the Moslem nation VIII
emerge from the parley completely
victorious.
1t is anticipated that the allies will
lose in their fight to pursuade Ismet
Pasha. Turkish nationalist repreenta
tive, to accept the special provision
relating to the treatment of for
eigners.
The Turkish delegates declare their
country's sovereignty is at stake and
that If they accept the demands of
the allies Turkey will continue under
the domination of European powers.

Country Curious To See Hard
ing In Flesh During His
Western Tour

WASHINGTON, May lathe null
titude of speaking invitations now
coming to the White House in every
mail testify to the curiosity every
where to see the President of the
United States in the flesh when he
goes on his western tour next month
Those who saw Harding during the
presidential campaign in 1920 now
are interested to observe what
changes two years in the White
House have wrought in him.
There have been number of sig
nificant changes in Harding's po-
litical associations in that time. He
has leaned away from the Senate ir-
recCncilable group which had a big
part in nominating him at Chicago,
and toward men like Hughes, Hoover
and Root.
'In quitting the company of ire
concilablts President Harding has
escaped their influence and at the
same time has put himself in closer
touch and apparently also in sympa-
thy with republicans who favor Civ

AIiennted Politically.
Politically. Harding is alienated
from Senators Borah, Johnson, Moses
and to degree from Watson of In
diana.
Yet in his personal relationships,
Harding scarcely has changed from
the Marion front porch DAYS At
heart he still is man from Main
street. as he rather proudly described
himself just after his Inauguration.
He has given striking evidence of
this within a week by appointing a
Marion days as postmaster at Bed
ford, Va. Friends who inquired at
the White House about this unusual
appointment. which defied orthodox
political considerations" were in
formed that Harding did not see tho
point in being President if he could
not occasionally take care of an old
friend.

Harding has contrived to keep up
his old friendships and diversions,

fixed by many predecessors requires
the President to wear formal dress

LABOR BOARD WILL
MAKE DECISION IN
SHOPMEN'S WAGES
Eyes OF Thousands Of Rail-
road Workers Turned
Toward Chicago

CHICAGO, May 13-As American
industries continue their war of wage
boosts tC secure additional labor and
to keep what they have, the interest
Of the railroads and hundreds of
thousands of railroad workers has
turned to the United States railroad
labor board, which reconvenes Mon
day with full membership.
Among the first actions of the
board, it is said. will be the handing
down of a wage decision in the case
of the petition for raise by the
shopmen of the Philadelphia and
Reading road, comparatively unim-
portant in itself, but highly signifi-
cant to the host of railroad employees
who have begun concerted move
ment which may bring them a total
annual pay increase OF more than
$50, 900 600.
Observers here believe that this
decision will indicate the sentiment
Ct the board regarding railroad
WAGES in the face of the general up
ward trend The downward trend of
the boards decision definitely
stopped early last fall, after two
years marked notably by the sizeable
wage cuts OF July /, 1921, and July L,
1922.
If the board grants the Pennsylva-
MIA and Reading shopmen substan-
tial raise, 1t is predicted, other
classes of labor in the various roads
will benefit either through the ava
lanchei of petitions which will be re-
leased onto the tribunals docket or
through considerable yielding on the
part of carriers in negotiations now
in progress or in prospect with rep
resentatives of the men.
Expect Workers To Win.
Judging from past performances of
the board, the Pennsylvania and
Reading workers will win. The labor
board has always upheld the conten-
tion that railroad labor should be
paid on a proportionate basis with
workers in similar occupations in
other industries. The strong train
service organizations. the Big Four"
not involved. their officers having
made agreements with the carriers,
effective until December. These
unions, however, did not share in the
sweeping wage cuts made by the
board last July.
S14T,0o0,0oO. 1t is not unlikely that
this will be regaintd by railroad la
Dor Increases negotiated on various
roads during the last few weeks
without recourse to the labor board
are estimated at $4,000. 900. Amicable
negotiations involving some $4,000,
600 more are in progress, and much
more will soon have been demanded,
The Philadelphia and Reading
'shopmen, represented by American
Federation. of Railroad Workers, de-
manded a return to the wage scale
established by the board in it's re-
duction of July |, 1921, and an addi-
tional increase of 10 per cent.

DRIVES TWO TO DEATH
Girl And Sweetheart End Lives To
Escape Gossip

NEW YORK, May 13.-Unable to
stand the gossip of neighbors who
had discovered their secret, 2l-year
old girl and her sweetheart AZ
year-old man, took their lives in
suicide pact here Sunday.
The bodies of young Anna Bruner
and the older William Bruner were
found clasped in each others arms
in the rear room of their modest
apartment in the Bronx. The girl had
died of gas asphyxiation and the
man by a bullet in his brain.
The two. said to be uncle and
niece, had posed as man and wife
since they rented the apartment last
october, but recently the friends
they had cultivated began taking
about them. The girl then hid her
self away and refused to admit call
ers.
The couple left a brief note to
friend explaining that they had de-
cided to escape the wagging of hos
tile tongues.
