According to those in charge, highly
important results in the study and de-
velopment of plant life have been
achieved during the 2S years the work
has been In progress. Much or that
work would be wasted, IL is claimed. II
further inroads are made on the pres
ent farming area. 1t Is pointed out
that a large section of the farm area
already has been diverted by special
act of Congress for use as the southern
approach Of the Arlington Memorial
Bridge. On that section Will be built
the straight boulevard to the Gusts
Mansion in the cemetery grounds, and
the diagonal boulevard around the
north wall OF the cemetery to connect
with the proposed boulevard. For
these and other reasons. the Secretary
Of Agriculture has indicated that he
will oppose any plan that involves the
transfer of any more of the farming
area and the practical loss of the
long experimental work Of a highly
important character.
Part to Be Cemetery.
In seeking the farm area for park
development, the Fine Arts Commits
sion indicated that portions Of 1t may
eventually be needed In the extension
of the cemetery proper. and, moreover.
that its use in the development Of the
bridge project in that vicinity would
not be required for two years TO come.
during which interval 1t Is assumed
that the Agriculture Department
could acquire another field for It's ex-
perimental work.
How the issue Will be Strengthened
out is declared doubtful 1t is con
ceded, however. that the Agriculture
Department cannot be dislodged from
the Arlington Reservation except by
special direction Of Congress.

Was Consulted by Commissioners.

HreSldsnt COOndgeS consent to the
final terms was obtained by the Amer
lean members of the commission in ad-
vance Of their reaching an agreement
with the visiting Italians. The Presi-
dent was kept we'll advised of the
progress Of the negotiations from the
moment they were open until the
agreement was reached.
II is understood that the President
feels very confident that when the
terms of the debt agreement are sub
mitted to Congress for ratification
they will receive favorable action The
President attaches no Importance to
too liberal and that Congress will vote
It's disapproval.
Respecting this prediction, the
White House assumes the attitude
that the settlement has been reached
after careful deliberation and that
terms have been conceded to Italy,
while liberal, are based entirely upon
that nations ability to pay. That was
the outsta nding feature OF the policy
adopted by this administration for
terms of settlement of all the debtor
nations. Besides this. the United
States, through this settlement, will
receive from Italy the original prin-
cipal, which in round figures is
slightly in excess OF $1.640, 900, 900,
with accrued interest amounting to
approximately 100000, 900.
Decision was Unanimous.
AS to the claims being made in GER
tain quarters that the settlement will
not be ratified by Congress because of
the Nberality on the part Of the Amer.
lean Government, tn. White House
takes the position that inasmuch as
the seven members Of the American
commission were unanimous in the
terms agreed upon, that there was
complete unity and full accord, should
have its due influence when the time
for ratification comes. Moreover, il
Congress should turn down the
agreement. the White House points
out that Italy would be placed in a
difficult position If 1t again cared to
reopen negotiations after the commits
sion created by Congress had unani-
mously agreed to terms which they
thought were just.
Associates of the President said to-
day that there is no reason to feel
concerned about the outcome of this
settlement when it reaches Congress
for ratification. 1t was intinlated
that the President already has re-
ceived informal assurances that the
settlement would be approved If the
terms were based strictly upon
ItaIy's ability to pay. The same
holds good in the case of the settle
ment of the Belgium debt.
May Prompt France to Act.
There was a feeling among asso-
cites of the President at the
White House today that Italy's
success in obtaining such generous
terms from the United States will
cause France, the only important ma
ton owing us money that has not
yet funded its debt, to do some deep
thinking. The impression Is that the
italian settlement will prompt France
to lose little time in making over
lures to this country to reopen
negotiations.
The White House already has been
advised that the agreement reached
regarding the Italian debt will serve
to enhance that nations credit in the
United States in the matter of ne
gotiating private loans here.

Considers Generosity of U. S.
Commissioners Based on
Ability to Pay.

President Coolidge is highly pleased
over the outcome OF the debt settle
ment with Italy. intimates who con-
ferred with him this morning said
He realizes that the American COM
nlissioners have been generous. and
that many of the citizens OF this coun-
try will feel that they have been over
generous, but there Is the existing
satisfaction of knowing that the debt
negotiations were settled strictly upon
In accord with Italy's ability to pay,
so far as Il can now be ascertained,
he feels.
Also. those friends say the Presi-

with this settlement one more COM

DESPERATE MAN
FROM EAST PULLS
GUN ON CHIEF
Only Quick Work On Part
of Hardwick Saves
Him

Trapped in small wooden shack
on the outskirts of Calexieo last
night, with a murderous negro, Joe
Hardwick, chief of police at Ca
lexico, saved his life by quick think
ing, and was forced to kill the
negro, in order to save himself.
The negro, identified as K. D.
Feathers, is said to have murdered q
prison guard i'll an eastern peniten-
tiary, and was sought by Officers
working out of the sheriff s office.
Last night they went to Calexico,
where the negro was believed to be-.
and picked up Chief Hardwick, who
accompanied them to the negro's
shack.
While the other officers waited
outside, Hardwick entered the shack
and called upon Feathers to sur
render. The latter's reply was to
draw his gun and as soon as he did
so, the officer 5eaped for him and
succeeded in grabbing his gun hand.
The two men grappled, Hardwick
trying to draw his own gun, and at
the same time prevent Feathers
from using his. The officers stand
ing outside the shack were unable to
come to the assistance of Hard
wick by shooting, as the feared they
would hit the officer.
Hardwick at last succeeded in
drawing his gun, and fired six shots
! in Feathers, killing him instantly.
The outside officers, during the
fight inside the shack, were menaced
by a negress companion of Feathers.
who attacked them with n club and
they were forced to threaten to
shoot her, before she could be sub
dued.
Feathers was known to be a bad
man, and Hardwick was warned
to be careful in going after him.
Had not his gun caught as he at
tempted to draw it out, he would
have been able to cover Feathers
as he demanded the latter S surrend-
er The fact that the gun caught,
gave Feathers sufficient time to
draw his own weapon. and Hardwick
was forced to rush him, in order to
avoid being shot.
Coroner Lemons will hold an in
quest in the case tomorrow after
noon.
This is the second instance in
the past few weeks of desperate
criminal being killed by n Calexiea
policeman. Officer Clarence Brow
ers shot and killed Jack Teal while
the latter was resisting arrest on
| the night of December l3. Teal was
later identified as being wanted in
Texas for murder, and Brewers will
doubtless get substantial reward
! which had been offered by Texas
authorities.

FRENCH NOTE ON
DEBT IS VAGUE
ON MANY POINTS

WASHINGTON. Jan. ;. The
state department today transmitted
to Secretary of Treasury Mellon, as
chairman of the world war debt
funding commission, the communica-
ton received from French Finance
Minister Clementel through Ambas-
sador Herriek relative to the French
debt.
The communication is said to con-
tain no definite funding offer on
which the debt commission can act.
The memorandum merely, outlines
what Clementel considers necessary
in the way of terms, namely, ten
year moratorium, interest at dne-half
of l per cent and payments spread
over so years.
British compromise offers rejected
by this government are:
|. Arbitration of the dispute by
the world court judges appointed by
it.
.. Recognition in equity, though
not legally, of so called American
public claims, such as those of the
shipping board, but not of private
claims for loss or for collection of
private debts.
The American note refuses arbi-
tration on the ground that the
claims are just; that similar claims
are collected from the reparations
fund by the allies and that the only
legitimate arbitration is now in pro-
cess under the American German
mixed claims commission. Private
claims as we'll rs public claims, are
being collected by the allies.
The American ease, rs set forth in
the note and as it will be presented
to the Paris government, is that this
country lost none of its rights
through declining to become a party
to the Versailles treaty. Its right
to collect claims out of the repara-
tions fund is held equal under the
separate treaty to the right of the
allies under the Versailles treaty.
The Dawes agreement, signed by the
allies, recognizes this right.
The note states, however, that this
government is willing to accept de
ferred payment plan by combining
the $3.50, 100000 claim III question
with, the. $3.50, 100000 army of occu-
patton cost claim. Under this plan
the immediate annual payment
would not be greater than those al
ready accepted by the allies i'll the
Wadsworth agreement for the oc'
cupation claim.
France and the other allies have
semi.offieially recognized America Is
claims in equity but not legally.
