BY Gable TO Ths Star and Chicago Daily News
PARIS, September 20.-Two impor-
tant events probably will ensue short
~ as results of the two-hour inter
view Wednesday between Prime Min
lister Baldwin of Great Britain and
Premier Poincare of France. One is
an interallied conference on repara-
tions at London; the other is the ca
pitulation of Germany in the Ruhr.
Premier Poincare is reported to
have approved of the London confer
ence under certain conditions. Pre-
mier Baldwin is said to have justified
the Ruhr situation by accepting as an
accomplished fact Franco Belgian oc-
cupation of the region, and agreeing
10 wink at the demand for cessation
. of passive resistance as a sine qua
non for the opening of final negotia-
lions between France and Germany.
Baldwin Chief Speaker.
Premier Baldwin did most of the
talking, the writer is informed, start
ing out with an explanation of Great
Britain's traditional distrust of the
Ruhr adventure on the ground that
IT was not paying proposition. To
this criticism Poincare replied that
while the Ruhr had not paid much up

and Furthermore that it's occupation
had been instrumental in bringing
about momenrous political results
This led to the question of what
would happen when Germany finally

resistance in the Ruhr. Would
France promise to modify her occu-
patton? Would Great Britain be ad-
United to the Franco Belgo-German
negotiations on an equal footing with
the other two allies?
1t was this latter point which fur
nlShed the most serious topic of dis
cussion. Premier Baldwin obviously
was afraid his country might be iso-
lated in a fashion similar to that
which former Premier Lloyd George
used to propose 50 frequently for
isolating France. Conditions have
changed since the days of Lloyd
Georges premiership. Then it was
Great Britain who apparently was on
top. Now it is France.

DISTRICT TO PRESS
BUDGET BUREAU TO
GRANT VITAL NEEDS
Commissioners in Second
Letter Stress Many Prof.
ects to Cost $7,103,084.

Detailed arguments in support of
the supplemental estimates of s7,105.-
0S4 will be laid before Gen. Lord in
a second letter, to be transmitted to
the budget bureau today.
Although the Commissioners will
not make public this communication.
it is understood to contain convincing
reasons why each request made in
the supplementals should be allowed.
The first letter, made public by the
city heads two days ago, outlined in
a general way the serious situation
that will confront the local govern
ment next year if the limitation OF
$25,144,SS2 on District estimates is
not increased.
The supplemental estimates are
made up of the many important prof.
ects that had to be eliminated from
the regular estimates in reducing
them to the maximum total fixed by
the budget office.
Ask S1,OOO,OOO for Schools.
1t is reported that the supplemental
list includes an appeal for something
more than a million dollars for the
school building program. The amount
carried for this purpose in the regular
estimates is nearly 100000 less than
the current appropriation for school
buildings
Thousands of dollars worth of new
street paving jobs. sewer and water
mains that had to be stricken from the
primary estimates also are in the sup
plementals. With the possible excep-
ton of school buildings, there are no
items in the supplementals of greater
Importance to the taxpayers than these
street paving, sewer and water main
jobs.
1t also is reliably stated that a sub
stantial amount has been asked for in
the supplementals to begin the proposed
renovation of the street lighting sys-
tenn. This item may be as much as
several hundred thousand dollars.
High Pressure Not Included.
1t was definitely learned today that
the supplemental list does not con-
tain request to begin installation
of system of high pressure Tire hy-
drants to give the downtown section
of Washington better fire protection.
The Commissioners have deferred this
project for future consideration.
An appropriation to prepare detail
ed plans for the rebuilding of the
Washington channel waterfront is
reported to be in the supplementals.
Another important sum eliminated
from the primary estimates and
placed in the supplementals is for
the acquisition of park sites, which
are likely to be taken UP by private
building operations If they are not
soon purchased.
An additional appropriation for the
erection of the proposed home for
feeble-minded persons near. Camp
Meade likewise is said to be asked
for in the supplementals. After pur-
chasing the site recently, the Com
missioners had only $4,000 left out
of the first appropriation to put up
the building.

NEW YORK PAPERS
. STILL DEFY STRIKE
Publishers Await Reply to
Demand Unions Charter
Be Revoked.
BY the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, September 2O-New
York's newspaper pressmen's strike,
which has curtailed publication of all
leading dailies since Tuesday morn
ing, faced little prospect of immediate
settlement today, the publishers at a
meeting last night having rejected
propositions put forth by the local
union and demanded that George L.
Berry, president of the International
Union. revoke the locals charter and
form a new organization.
Whether this request would be
granted Mr.. Berry declined last night
to say. He previously had ordered
the men to return to work, charac-
terizing their walkout as illegal. and
telling them the charter would be
| taken away if they did not break
| the strike. A meeting of officers of
the International Union was called
| for today and it was expected definite
action one way or another on the
owners request would result.
Call Strikers Defiant.
The owners, in their statement.
characterized the strikers as defiant"
, and declared they would have no
further dealings with their organiza-
ton. They said they would continue
to publish combined editions of both
morning and evening newspapers,
which they have done since the strike
| started.
You have assured u.s." the owners
told Mr.. Berry, that you would out
law the local union and give a
charter to another union. We will
not deal further with this defiant
union. We await your promised
action to revoke the charter Of this
| defiant local union"
The unions proposition for settle
owners called for the appointment of
an arbitration board consisting of
three union members, three publishers
and three impartial members.
Ask Former Conditions.
They asked that nothing be done in
the way of a permanent agreement
until this board decided upon the
| question of hours, wages and the
number of men to each press. The
union also demanded that conditions
prevailing before the award of Judge
Manton in March, 1922, be restored.
Upon reports that a newspaper deliv-
cry truck had been attacked on Man
haitian bridge today, ten police automo-
biles were added to the fleet of twenty
previously assigned to strike duty.
| Police reserves sent to the pressroom
entrance of the Daily News this morn
| ing scattered crowd with night sticks.
Recovering Circulation.
1t was announced today by the Pub
| fishers Association that the circulation
of yesterday mornings newspapers was
| 40 per cent of normal and today's cir
culation 20 per cent of normal. Circu-
! lation yesterday afternoon was 45 per
cent of normal.
Most of the papers are publishing
| eight-page editions labeled The Com
bined New York Morning Cor EVENING"
Newspapers" Each front page con-
tains the names of all the papers af-
fected by the strike. but each paper pub
| ishing makes its own selection OF news
and retains its typographical individ-
fuality.
