VIEWS HELD WRONG.
Tradition. of Peaceful Debt Collec-
tion Followed at Paris.
BY DAVID LAWRENCE.

The United States Government has
not become involved in any obligation
requiring the use of force in the col
lection of debts from Germany or any
other country.
The traditional position of the United
States has been maintained, notwith-
standing the implications in European
press dispa tches and apprehensions ex-
pressed by the ''irreconcilable" group on
Capitol Hill.
Secretary of State Hughes merely
reiterated in his statement today what
has always been the American attitude
ever since Elihu Root presented to The
Hague conference of 1907 a convention
embodying the Drago doctrine, which
repudiates the idea of enforced collec-
ton of debts.
When Mr.. Hughes points out that the
agreement just reached at Paris does
not provide for sanctions (penaities) or

arise il the contemplated payments

New York in 1921.
Chapman was brought here from
Muncie last night. Mr.. Cavins said
Chapman would be placed in the
custody OF the warden OF the Federal

called for him.
Linus p. Meredith. United States

oner to Atlanta today. but the district

be to wait for the warden.
Operations In Muncie.
Federal authorities revealed that
they traced Chapman TO Muncie as
long as four months ago, but eff
successful. He was said to have
operated at Muncie as a member of
the hight brow gang" The author
titles also declared that Chapman had
been attentive to young woman
who was a member of rather prom
inent Indiana family, but who is

GaIliher Fears GrandStandS

SALE OF RESERVATIONS
ONLY WAY TO PAY BILLS
President Determined to Retain
Stand for Simple
Ceremony.

With President Coolidge determined
to apply in the strictest sense his re-
quest that the ceremonies attend
ing his Inauguration be thoroughly
modest-''the simpler the better -
the WASHINGTON committee in charge
is faced with a serious problem In
the matter of raising funds with
which to meet the expenses OF even
a simplified fete.
Already deprived of the revenues
that were once derived from the now
discarded inaugural ball, the COM
mittee may now be called upon to
confront the loss of it's last big
source OF revenues, other than public
subscriptions. If the parade is too
severely censored-the sale OF reserva-
tions for reviewing stands.
Need of Big Pageant.
1t was pointed out today that
large enough crowd to fill all OF the
grandstands that can be built along
Pennsylvania avenue will not be at
tracted to Washington on inaugura-
tion day by anything but a brilliant
military pa geant escorting the Pres
ident from the Capitol after he has
been formally sworn in as the Ma
tion's Chief Executive.
William 7. Galliher, chairman of
the general committee, had a further
conference with President Coolidge
this morning on the matter of what
troops may participate. Mr.. Galliher
told the President that he had re-
quests from a number of military
organizations known from one end
OF the country OF the other as crack
regiments" for permission to accom-
pany the governors of their respect
i've States in the march up Pennsyl-
Vania avenue.

Limit on Troops.

The President, it is understood, re-
iterated his desire that the number of
men who might accompany the State
governors, including their staffs,
suites and official escorts, should be
limited to 100 each. This Limitation
on the number OF troops that may
appear In line. excepting the regular
lighting establishments of the coun-
try, it is said, would also apply to the
local High School Cadets.
Mr.. Galliher pointed out that it was
not his desire nor intention TO plan
a big parade from the standpoint of
numbers. There are, in and about
Washington. he said, perhaps a full
brigade of Regular Army. Navy and
Marine Corps troops and Reserve Off

Division of Governors.

Then. he continued, it was his plan
to have a second division composed
of the governors of every State in the
Union. their staffs and their suites.
But accompanying each governor
would be contingent of troops,
ranging In size from company of
peace strength to a battalion, and
representing the outstanding military
organization of that State.
This plan, he said, would bring to
Washington the very flower of the
country's military, and give to Presi-
dent CooIidge's Inauguration a touch
of color the like of which no other
President had enjoyed. Most of these
old organiza tions have picturesque
uniforms and represent entrancing
chapters in the Nations history. Their
presence, marching behind their gov
ernors. It was pointed out, would
sweep the crowds off their feet with
enthusiasm.
1t is understood, however, that the
President feels that unless the num-
is limited. the State Legislatures may
misunderstood the nature OF the
inaugural procession and waste large
sums of money sending big contin-
gents of State guards to Washingt ton.
Such a situation. it has been made
known heretofore, would be to the
Presidents disliking.
Between Two Fires.
AS result Mr. Galliher is between
two fires. He is anxious and bound
to respect the wishes of the Presi-
dent. On the other hand, he is re-
sponsible for the ceremonies attend
ing the inauguration next March. IL
the parade is curtailed to the extent
that now seems probable, 1t is said by
those in a position to know, there is
likely to be insufficient money to meet
the inauguratio expenses unless the
people of Washington pay the entire
bill.
Harry Wardman, chairman of the
finance committee, is out to raise
$1,000 for inauguration expenses
decorations, entertaining, fireworks
and all other purposes. Even though
the committee is successful in selling g
all OF the reviewing stand reserva-
tions, it is said, two-thirds of the
100000 may have to be made up by
patriotic business men and other citi-
zens who will pledge contributions.
Up to the time of President Will
sons administration, Mr.. Galliher said
