ton this month, and expects to

LORD CECIL WILL HOLD CONFERENC
 AT WHITE HOUSE
EngliShman Will Be Told Ad- miniStration's Determined
 Foreign Policy

WASHINGTON, April 1S.-For the third time during the Harding ad- ministration, a distinguished messen- ger from abroad comes to plead the case of Europe and the League of Nations at the threshold of the White House. A month after Harding be- came President, former Premier Nivi- ami of France arrived to interest the new administration in the plight of Europe and especially in the League of Nations. Six months ago Georges Clemcnceau came. Now the two fla nous Frenchmen are followed by the likable son of Britain, Lord Robert Cecil, who, next to Woodrow Wilson, perhaps, had more to do with found - ing the League of Nations than any other statesman. Lord Robert will
 be received by President Harding at the White House and listened to with the same genial cordality which was bestowed on Niviani and C1em-
 enceau. But he will be told, as his two predecessors were, that the United States is unwilling to join the league or become involved in European affairs. Harding is ready to lend help, but not in any way that

Baldwin Sees No Advantage In Debt
 

LONDON, April 1S-Stanley Bald win, in replying to question in the House of Commons Wednesday,, de- clared that he saw no advantage, at present in the calling of a con ference to discuss allied debts.

 commits the United States to per manent role.
 It is probable that the United States will accept the invitation of the league council to attend the in ternational customs conference to be held at Geneva next october. All though state department officials will take no action until the official invitation is received. it is pointed out that the United States now par ticipates in the league commissions to study anthrax and traffic in wom- en and children.
 Brings Wave to Climax.
 The arrival of Lord Robert here brings tle latest prologue wave to climax. It will give the President m opportunity to answer definitely the recent assertions from various quarters that he is veering towards the league by proposing to join the international court set up by that body. Administration spokesmen have tried to dIspel this impression, bu. they have been rather unsuccessful and only direct utterance from the President himself will satisfy the more apprehenSive like Senator Bo- rah and Senator Johnson.
 <. William Allen White, a progressive republican, who assisted in drafting the international plank of the party's platform in 1920, has added his voice to the renewed caapaIgn for the ie&suc Returning from trip through Europe and the Near East, the Kansas sage declared here Wed EeSdey that lie still favored joining the league either with or without reservation. He believes that Ameri- can isolation has been responsible for much of the trouble in Europe since 1919. The first thing that ought to be done, In Whites opinion, is to call world conference which would include nc. only statesmen but flnan- ciers, business men. labor leaders. and students of world politics This con ference should rcdraft the boundar- ies of Europe and deal with the other problems from a fresh point of view. Which will be aligned with a group of prologue republicans like George Wharton Pepper, and former Gov. Henry Allen of Kansas, in trying to persuade the party to revise it's attitude toward Europe. This movement is likely to gain con siderable momentum before the next convention. It's aim will be not so much to unseat Harding as to force q declaration in the party platform,

 The period of the flapper now happily vanished was one ' of the most horrible eras in our history.
