LONG CONFERENCE
 OVER DAWES PLAN
Allied Nations Sill Far From
 Any Agreement
By Th, A.sollalsa ples.

fa AHf NfFNf N@f84 asN@-
 London, July sl, - Premier Mac Donald ot England today conferred for two hours with Premier Herriol of France, Finance Minister De Stetanl of Italy, Premier Theunis ef Belgium and Ambassador Kellogg of inc Unit ed states regarding Rays and means Of obtaining an agreement between ihe delegates oi the inter,alllei con- ference on the enforcement Of the Dawes plan,
 While the pienars delegates dls' eussed the broad phases of the pnNes plan, the committees Of experts cons tinued their efforts to reach an agree ment on the measures for bringing about the fiscal and economic unity Of Germany, lt Is believed this win he realized by tonight except for the question Of railway control, which re- mains stumbling block to the plans for the evacuation Of the Ruhr
 The experts resented the conflict ing views on railway control advanced by tho British, French and Belgiana, respectively, to committee number one Of the conference and are await Ing fresh instructions how to proceed. The progress made by tho experts studying the restoration of German unity indicates it will ba possible 10 hold plenary session tomorrow
 Frank R. Kellogg. American am- hassador, was unable to attend the conference this forenoon with Prime Minister Macdonald in Downing street because his presence was demanded at the ceremonies of welcome to the bar association delegations from over seas.
 French Were Doubtful.
 The German government has com municated to the Bristish foreign office its latest views on the Dawes report and the question of German representation at the conference. The German representations will be pre- sented at the next plenary session. The French delegation appeared more doubtful today than the other con ferees as to the time of this session, taking the view that it may not be possible to hold it before Wednesday.
 The French, it is indicated are none too pleased over the possibility of losing control of all the railways to the Ruhr They have adopted a view somewhat more conciliatory toward the British position that the lines should be returned to the au- thority of the inter-allied railway board, but they are still seeking ways 10 insure the maintenance of their own communications in any eyentu- ality in the Ruhr.
 Arc Going Carefully
 Premier Herriot and his colleagues gre stepping carefully, the confer ence reports indicate, so as not to do anything to antagonize the bankers whose support is necessary for the success of the German loan. and de- spite the present differences, the French premier believes it will be possible to reach an agreement.

Eilberstein's ideas. as prevented to
the British Association at Toronto,
are as fine specimen Of trans.

easily be found. BY combining
the mathematics OF common sense
with the mathematics Of the
imagination, he produces a cal
culation Of the length Of the
longest possible straight line that
could be drawn in the universe,
and It comes out in astronomical
units as a hundred ana eighty
million light-years, which, 1t may
be remarked, for the sake Of

tillions of miles!
The Interpretation Of this re-.
markable calculation is still more
picturesque, and may be put thus:
If you could see in a straight

twice a thousand quintillions Of
miles, your line OF sight would
strike the back Of your head!
This sort Of thing, it r1ay be re.

world had ever heard Of EinSteiI,
but Professor Newcomb never

of this has been constructed the
notion that the universe Is a

IL at the same time without

sphericity Is inherent, inside and

straight in II (which many are
ready to believe without mathe-
matics). and every apparently
straight line eventually returns ID
its beginning-like q kitten chas-
ing her tail. The latest contri-
button is a calculation Of the
greatest length OF the chase.
