BORAH INSISTS ON
AN ECONOMIC MEET
Renews His Proposal In Senate
-Exepcts Stormy Session
When Submitted

WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.-Sena-
tor Borah has renewed in the sem
ate his proposal for an international
economic conference to be called
by President Harding.
The conference proposal, which
has already been the center of one
senate storm and is expected to de-
velop another, submitted this time
by Senator Borah as a separate reso-
luton which at his own request was
laid aside for further consideration
after the pending farm credits leg
islation is out of the way.
In order to prevent any undue de-
lay, however, Borah indicated that
when the proper time came he prob
ably would move to add the resolu-
tion as an amendment to some bill
already under discussion.
The resolution was almost identi-
cal with the Borah naval bill amend
ment which Borah withdrew after
administration leaders had said it
would embarrass the state depart
ment negotiations then in progress.
President Harding under a reso-
luton, was requested to invite such
governments as he might deem de-
sirable to the conference charged
with the duty of considering econom-
&c problems now obtaining through
out the world"
