PRESIDENT LOOKING
FOR DEBT SOLUTION
Meeting Of Commission With
| British Cabinet Expected
4. to Further Plans.

President Harding was represented
at the White House yesterday as feel
Ang confident of the success or nego-
tiAtions for the refunding OF Great
Britain's war debt to this govern
Inent
Progress is expected to be made, 1t
vas explained, through meeting OF
the British debt commission with the
Cabinet at London, and cabled advices
70 Ambassador Geddes here. with
George Harvey, the American am
bassador at London, ready to confer
with the British officials at any juno
ture. Col. Harvey was in Washing
ton during the negotiations here be-
tween the two commissions and Is
thoroughly conversant with the sit
uation.
The President and the American
debt commissioners were declared to
believe that the counter proposition
presented by the Americans. after the
British mission had outlined terms on
behalf Of its government, was sound
and one that might have been accept
able to Congress. The firmness OF the
Americans in supporting their counter
proposition was contributing rea-
son, il was believed. for the decision
of the British to have cabinet con-
sideration of the whole question be-
fore proceeding further with the ne
gotiations. Should settlement be de-
layed beyond the present session OF
Congress. ending March 3, 1t was eX.
planned, there would be no extra ses-
sion Of the new Congress, on that ac'
count.

COAL MEN DENY GREED
DELAYED WAGE PACT
National Association Issues State
ment Denying Reports Of Con-
nivance by Producers.

nivance by Producers.
Calling attention to a false report
that signing Of wage scale might
be delayed for profiteering purposes.
the National Coal Association has Is
sued a statement. In part. as follows:
The wage agreement reached at
New York between operators and
miners of Illinois, Indiana and Ohio
was preceded by only a few hours by
q fraudulent statement, widely dis
seminated. that a considerable num-
ber of coal producers were conniVing
to pIoiong negotiations SO as to
stimulate public apprehension that
there might be strike on April 1
and thereby enhance the price Of
spot coal
"In this connection. the National
Coal Association wishes to point out
coal industry exists Is predicated
largely upon Just such false and mis-
leading statements as these. The as
sumption that fear of strike would
cause panic prices for coal could have
Imagination. The public memory is
not SO short that II cannot recall that
for sixty days prior to the strike Of
last summer the coal market was at a
very low ebb During this period
thousands of cars of coal were sold
at less than the cost Of production.
During this pre-strike period. also.
many mines were. closed because of
lack OF orders for coal at any price.
The beginning OF the strike saw thou
sands of loaded cars on the tracks un-
sold and with no buyers at prices that
would even meet the production cost,
much less yield a profit to the pro-
ducers.
with that recent experience in
mind what assumption Is there that
the situation would be any different
this spring? Certainly no sane coal
producers would make such an un-
warranted calculation"

Importance of Valley
Stressed on Ticket
Agents

Determined, to' impress, upon the
800 easterlr railroad .StieRet agents
who are visiting California on their
return home from their convention
in Portland, that Imperial Valley is
one of fhe sections of the state that
they should be familiar with, the
directors of. the Chambers of Com
merce took quick aetionY at their
meeting last night to make arrange
ments for giving the railroad men
4 hurried trip through the south
end of the valley, following their
arrival here at o'clock tonight
from San Diego.
C. w. Runge, district freight and
passenger agent of the Southern Pa
cific Company, and also director
in the Chamber of Commerce, left
for San Diego Immediately after
last nights meeting to acquaint the
ticket men with plans being made
for them here, and will accompany
the party to Ell Centre.
Secretary Coyle was busy this
morning soliciting automobiles and
drivers from local citizens and these
will meet the ticket men at the
Southern Pacific station. There
the visitors will enter the machines
and be taken for a ride about city
and thence to Calexico where they
will board their special train,
which in the meantime will, have
gone to the border city.
Stress Writer Climate
Each ear will be supplied with n
live-wire citizen who will give the
visitors information on Imperial
Valley, emphasizing the fact that
the ticket men should remember
this part of the country when MAX
ing up schedules for tourists to the
Pacific coast.
The necessity for constructing the
Boulder Canyon dam and the All
American canal will also be pointed
out to the ticket men, as well as the
high standing Imperial Valley has
as a winter resort. Statistical
sheets showing the productiveness
of the valley will also be distribut-
ed and nothing will be left undone
to make Imperial Valley remain in
the minds of the party as one of
the principal points visited by
them. s
Although Secretary Coyle was
successful in obtaining many ma
chimes, more are needed, and Ell
Centrans with ears and an hour to
spare are urged to be at the South
ern Pacific station at 5:45 this af-
ternoon to assist in transporting the
visitors. There will be just time
enough to make the trip to Calex-
leo, and as no program is planned
for the visitors in the latter city,
those making the trip from here will
not lose any great amount of time.
