BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
LONDON, July 14.-Prime Minister
Macdonald told the House Of Com
mons today that he understood from
conversations with Premier Herriot
OF France and others that If an Amer
lean were appointed to the repara-
tions commission to safeguard the
creditors of the f4o.o0o,000 loan to
Germany, France would undoubtedly
insist upon an extra appointment to
the commission.
The fact that the reparations experts
committee had been appointed, and that
Americans were present as members of
the committee, had undoubtedly tre-
mendously contri ributed to- friendly rela-
tions between Great Britain and France,
the prime minister said.
In the course of a debate on the Dawes
plan and the forthcoming allied confer
ence, the premier remarked that the ex-
perts' committee was inherited by the
present government, and then added
that there. was no doubt in his mind
of the benehcent sffect of the commits

Salaries Effect Increase,

Although the estimates that will go
to the Budget Bureau tomorrow are
$5,o00,000 in excess Of the tentative fig
ure recommended a year ago, the in
crease is made up principally Of higher
salaries provided for by Congress, be-
ginning with this year, so that the sum
requested for municipal projects is
probably no greater than was sought a
year ago.
A year ago, however. the Budget Bu-
reau ordered the Commissioners to make
heavy reductions in their original fig
ures, bringing the total down to about
s26. .00o, 900.
District officials are hoping the Bud
get Bureau will not cut the estimates for
next year, because they believe they
have already eliminated everything that
could be called non-essential and some
essential items as well.
The city heads will wait for further
information from the budget Office be-

SHAVER IS ASKED
TO RUN CAMPAIGN
West Virginian, Longtime
Supporter, Davis Choice -,
to Take Management.
SEEKS LEADERS'ATTITUDE
Wants Assurance of Cooperation
of Such Men as Roper
and Roosevelt.
SEEKS LEADERS'ATTITUDE
BY DAVID LAWRENCE.

NEW YORK, July 14.-Clem Shaver
of West Virginia has been asked by
John w. Davis to become campaign
manager This carries with it the
chajrmanship of the Democratic ma
tiouai committee, and when that body
meets, three weeks hence, arrange
ments would be made to have the
present member from West Virginia
retire in order to make way for Mr..
Shaver.
There has been some doubt how
ever, whether Mr. Shaver would ac-
cept. He is so eager for the success
of John w. Davis that unless he
could be assured of the active CO.
operation Of men like Daniel c.
Roper, Franklin Roosevelt and others
who know national politics from the
Democratic viewpoint due to their
experience in previous campaigns, he
would not take the position.
Mr.. Shaver is anxious for a harmo-
nious front He has excellent polit-
ica1 judgment and it was largely due
to his tact that no steps were taken
by the friends of John W. Davis in
the preconvention fight which might
have prejudiced chances of victory
In view of the factional differences
that have existed. the selection by
Mr. Davis as his manager of any one
who had a conspicuous part in the
preconvention fight, it is felt, might
prevent harmony. Mr.. Shaver re-
mained on good terms with all fac
tions throughout the convention. He
is the type of man who would draw
to his side all the assistance he could
get. Judge David Ladd Rockwell,
the McAdoo manager. has already
volunteered his services and probably
will be an important aide in the cam
paign to come.
Long a Davis Supporter.
There are other reasons why Glenn
Shaver is looked upon as the logical
choice. He made the first speech nom-
mating John W. Davis for Congress. He
helped organize the first John W. Davis
for President Club. He was at San
Francisco four years ago with his little
band of worshipers Of John w. Davis
He knows the candidate intimately, and
is in a position to speak authoritatively
for him. And John Davis knows Glenn
Shaver. There would be no pledges
made, no compromising negotiations Of
any kind which might embarrass the
nominee Indeed, it is a mark Of con-
fidence that John Davis did not wait a
single day before Offering his lifelong
friend the highest position he could give
him in the national campaign.
The desire of the Davis campaign to
appeal to the West and Middle West

Sinclair Must Stand Trial.

Justice Hoehling reviews at length
the Kilbourn case decided in 1881,
the Chapman contest case in 1897
and the Henry case in 1914 where
the United States Supreme Court
considered the fundamental question
of jurisdiction involved in such con-
tempt cases and has left it still open
and undecided and it has ever since
remained so. Following the general
rule in such matters the court de-
clares that he is of opinion that the
question of the authority of Congress
should be resolved against the de-
fendant and in favor of the existence
of the power to compel pertinent
testimony in aid of the exercise of its
legislative function excluding, of course,
self determination.
On the claim of counsel for Sin
clair that the Senate, il it had
authority to ask the questions, had
deprived itself of Jurisdiction by the
resolution to refer the oil cases to
the courts for determination, Justice
HoehTing finds that this was only
part of the subject matter of the
Senate inquiry, which he asserts has
not even yet been completed. The
court then passes to discussion of
the relevancy and pertinency of the
question asked by Senator Walsh and
which Mr.. Sinclair declined to an
swer. He finds that six of the in
| auiries were pertinent and three not
pertinent. AS to the former, the
court directs that Sinclair must stand
trial, but that he does not have to de-
fend his refusal to answer the other
