HUGHES WAITING
CONF IDENTITY FOR
RUHR MEDIATION
Premature Peace 0yertures

WASHINGTON, March 5. - Al
though President Harding sees
nothing at the moment that might
carry the United States into the
Ruhr situation the recurrence OF
rumors to that effect is not with.
out plausible origin.
ANY statement of what the gov
erbment will do can be applied only
to 24.hour periods, for the situation
not only may change at any minute
but there is more than a vague ex-
pectation that it will.
Secretary Hughes did not aban
don his proposed trip to the Pan
American conference in South
Africa because of any sudden in
crease in the activities of the de-
partment OF state. All things con-
side~ed he is in g. much better po-
sition to detach himself now from
the routine of the department of
lII0il 1lS was OIl IllC ONNoSAOA
of his previous voyage to Rio lie
Janeiro last year.
1t would, of course, have looked
a bit easy going if with Presiden.
Harding bound for Florida for a
month the ecretary Of state ha.
also gone away to South America
but the reason for the abandonment
of Mr. Hughes journey goes deep
er than the public impression which
might be produced by the absence
from the national capital of it's twr
most most important administra.
tive officers, especially with both
houses of congress adjourned for
nine months.
The truth is the mediation by
diplomacy is inevitable. Govern
ment officials are no more aware OF
what the process will be than Is
the general public but it takes no
extraordinary power Of analysis to
assume that the Ruhr situation Will
not go on Indefinitely and thar
somehow it must be composed
through the friendly offices Of out
side powers.
President Harding and Secretary
Hughes have made it plain to the
American ambassadors at London,
Paris and Berlin that the United
States will not intrude, will not
make a move which can be con-
strued as undue interference, but
will wait for a propitious moment
when no possible antagonis!n can
result from American attempts at
helpfulness.
Remembering the bitter feeling
which was engendered in America
when Great Britain recognized the
belligerency Of the Confederacy, re-
menbering the resentment of eff
forts to mediate before the United
States had a chance to make eff
fective war on Spain and recalling
ty toward America in the allied
countries during the first two years
of the war every time a peace note
was sent by the Washington gov
eminent, there is no disposition TO
butt into European matters"
This has been the policy for sever
al weeks, but it may be changed
any day by some hint or indication
from France that a diplomatic set
tlement would be welcomed. Officials
here seem to feel of course, that
Great Britain is much closer to the
situation than is America and that
when the proper moment for media.
ton comes, the British will ask the
United States to cooperate.

MANY MEASURES
UND|SPOSED Of AS
CONGRESS ADJOURNS
Minor Measures and Nomi-
nation Combinations Get
Chance for Passage Only
After Many Hours Delay

WASHINGTON, March 4.-(By
the Associated Press.)-The senate
filibuster which marked the waning
hours of the sixty~seventh congress
finally broke down near midnight
Saturday night, and nominations and
many minor matters were considered
in executive session. Hundreds OF
nominations, mostly of postmasters,
were confirmed, and action was COM
pleted on the government employees
salary Redistribution bill.
Managers of the filibuster conced-
ed defeat, admitting that they had
abandoned hope of securing action
by the house on the nitrate measure
and had not received sufficient sup
port in the senate to carry on the
battle. The senate then reached an
agreement to spend two hours in the
consideration of minor bills and ad-
journed at 1925 o'clock to 10 o'clock
Sunday morning.
Night sessions were held by both
senate and house to clear away the
last real legislative business on the
calendar. Sundays sessions be-
gan at 10 o'clock, giving a two
hour period for the final formalities.
President Harding went to the cap
itol to sign eleventh-hour bills and
sharply at noon the congress passed

Views of Record
In the course of the day, how
ever, and during the evening hours,
scores Of minor bills squeezed
through and others received their
death-blows. The debate turned on
many subjects. Many statements
praising the two years record of
congress were made by Republican
leaders, while opposite views were
voiced by their political opponents.
Revision of the tariff and inter
nal revenue tax laws with reduc-
ton Of expenditures and army and
navy forces were claimed by the
Republicans as outstanding achieve
ments, but Senator Robinson, Of
Arkansas, the acting democratic
leader. issued statement declaring
that the tariff law was the only
administration triumph" Other
important measures, he said, were
bipartisan, and he declared the
present administration was reap

Il will see that none of the fam

necessary to farm. Having read so
much Of the suffering over there and
at the same time needing a depend
able tenant, I decided to do my bit
In helping a rdpressed German

are any Germans in the state who
wish TO bring relatives to this coun-
try ! wish they would write me and
we might be able to make a deal"

one Familiar With Works,
Charge Made at

Metropolitan Utilities district into
distressful water conditions arising in
Omaha during the week of August II
follow:
That an unidentified person with
technical knowledge of the water
plant at Florence opened a mud valve
which, il 1t had not been discovered,
would have delayed furnishing OF

other 10 days.
That shortly after muddy, un-
drinkable water began flowing into
Omaha, plant employees discovered
the opened valve and reported 1t TO
superintendent A. B. Hunt.

trouble centered. had not been thor
oughly cleaned for more than a year

rect charge of washing basins.
That breaking OF bypass valve,
of great Importance In keeping ma
chinery OF the water plant working
to capacity. was not reported until
some time in July and although the
breakage occurred in May. necessary
