Mrs. Owens the day following the
convention. and it was not astonishing
that the the sight of her had re-

WASHINGTON, June 49, The
United States will soon be ''official-

speed up the settlement of the rep
arations problem and Europe's eco
nomic troubles.
George Harvey, ambassador to
Great Britain, is scheduled to take
back to London with him next
month u comprehensive statement
Of the views of this government.
Harvey will be able to give British
statesmen valuable assistance in
their efforts to keep the reparations
problem moving to settlement, it
was learned today, though he will be
acting in a personal and unofficial
capacity when he does so.
U. s. Won't Mix In
Both President Harding and' See
retary of State Hughes are deter
mined that the U. S. shall not get
mixed in the reparations squabble.
European statesmen understand
by this, time that American domestic
politics will not permit this or any
other administration body to throw
the influence of this government in
to the scales over there. But the
psychological effect of what Harvey
will tell Premier Baldwin and other
British officials once it is known
IN other European capitals will be
