KELLOGG WILL SIT
WITH ALLIED BOARD
Washington Officials Tell of
American Interest in Farley of
British and French PremierS.

Washington.-Co the par
ticipation of Ambassador Kellogg, as
personal representative of President
Coolidge, in the conference of Premi-
ers to be held in London on July 16,
State Department officials said that
the interest of the United States in
the coming deliberations is even more
definite and unmistaka BILE than it was
when Colonel Harvey similarly repre-
scented President Harding in the SUI
preme Council.
At that time there were to be gen.
eral discussions of ways and means
of rehabiiitating Europe, and the
United States naturally was interest
ed in seeing this accomplished Now
however, d definite plan has been
evolved as the result of the efforts
of a committee of experts, headed by
an American, General Charles G.
Dawes, and the Premiers are to dis
cuss the necessary steps to put it
into execution.
The United States has claim for
approximately $256,000,000 for the
costs Of the American Army Of Occu-
patton, and It has claims in satisfac-
ton of American Claims against Ger
many which nave been adjudicated
by the Germah-American Mixed
Claims Commission sitting in Wash
ington. An estimate of this latter
amount placed the total at something
over $200,OOO,0O0, though these fig
ures may be chang ed.
The United States Government has
been assured that the conference OF
Premiers in London will not consider
the question Of interallied debts or
debts of the Allies to the United
States, it was stated officially. In
the past, whenever there has been
a question of American participation
in an economic conference, whether
at Cannes, Genoa or Brussels, the
insistence of the F. ench Government
upon the consideration of lnterna-
tional debts along with the question
of reparations has made it impossible
for this Government to participate.
The Monmouth inquirer., 1924-07-03
RUHR OPEN TO
100000 ExILES
Jail Sentences Also Are to Be Sus-
pended or Reviewed by Order
of Premier Herriot.
BERLIN PROPOSAL REFUSED
Premier Won't Let Rail Tax Receipts
Be Departed From Bond Interest
Payments-Note on Resump-
ton of Military Control.

Paris - Premier Herriot has in
structed General Degoutte, command
ing the Franco Belgian forces occu-
plying the Ruhr, to permit with few
exceptions the return to the industrial
region of all Germans expelled since
the beginning of the occupation in
January of last year,
While the exact number affected is
not known because their families
were sent out with all Germans
against whom expulsion orders were
issued, it is understood the new order
will permit the return to their homes
of about 100000 persons. The only
exceptions ase those expelled for Sc
rious non-political crimes, whose
number is small M. Herriot had pre-
viously authorized the return of $4,000
Germans expelled from Rhineland ter
ritory exclusive of the Ruhr.
1t is further announced that the
sentences on all Germans condemned
to prison for taking part in the pas
sive resistance program without Grim
inal violence will be suspended and
that persons convicted for crimes of
violence will have their cases re-
viewed for the purpose of exercising
the largest measure of clemency.
This measure is quite in accord
with NJ Herriot's position that exploit
tation of the Ruhr should now be
given up in favor of putting into op-
GRAFTON the Dawes plan, and that re-
CARELESS of the merits of the expul-
sion of those who interfered with this
exploitation there is no use prolohg-
ing their deportation. There is some
criticism of the Premier's measure
before putting into operation the ex-
perts' plan, on the ground that he
could have used permission to the ex-
PEELED Germans to return as a card in
the coming negotiations with the Ger
mans.
Coincident with the announcement
of this move, it has been made known
Chat M. Herriot sent note to Berlin
rejecting the German proposals in re-
gard to the Ruhr Micum accords.
These proposals were made two days
before M Herriot became Premier,
and stated that the Germans could not
renew the agreements for deliveries
b. the Ruhr industrialists unless the
French agreed that the 200,000,000
gold marks railroad tax planned by
the Dawes report should be used to
repay the industrialists. Inasmuch as
the Dawes plan intedded the railroad
tax to meet the interest charges on
an issue of bonds to be delivered to
the Allies, it was perfectly apparent
that the German demand amounted to
an effort to reduce the amount Ger
many would have to pay under the
experts system.
In rejecting this proposal M. Her
riot said France and Belgium wished
the accords prolonged on the present
basis until the Dawes plan went into
effect.

Berlin Favors Military

Berlin.-The German Governments
answer agreeing to resumption of al
lied military investigation into the al
legged warlike preparations in Ger
many was dispatched from here. The
Government heads arrived at an agree
ment regarding the tenor of the note,
since when slight changes have been
made in the original text outlined.
The note will not be telegraphed
but taken direct to Paris by courier,
who will hand it personally to Premier
Herroit, who is ex-officio chairman of
the Conference of Ambassadors,
which sent the allied demand for re-
sumption of military control, to which
Germany is now replying.
The reply covers five typewriter
pages, taking up the question with
considerable detail The actual word
ing is still jealousy guarded as the
Government does not wish to publish
it before it is received in Paris. How
ever it may be stated with assurance
that German acquiescence in the al
lied demands is practically uncondi-
tional.
