Conference Today Expected
To Determine Policies of
Future

RAPID CITY, S. D., July 6, GP--Re-
lations with MeAico which have been
causing the administration some con-
cern during the past two years will
be gone over at a conference here to-
morrow between President Coolidge
and Ambassador Sheffield of Mexico,
who is expected to arrive at the sum-
mer White House early in morning.
While no new steps in the Mexican
situation are planned by the presi-
dent, he is interested to hear first
hand how the agreement reached be-
tween this country and Mexico recent
ly against the confiscation OF Ameri-
can property there, has been working
out.
In his address in New York in APP
ril Mr.. Coolidge disclosed that the
American ambassador had given him
a promise his government would guard
against confiscation of American pro-
perty and would protect American
lives. On the basis of this conversation
the president then was optimistic over
the possibility of ironing out the diff
ferenceS with Mexico which arose over
the dispute of the oil and land laws.
The conference tomorrow also is ex-
pected to accelerate decision by MT.
Sheffield on his intention of retaining
his post which rumor frequently has
had it that he would quit At the sum-
mer White House it has been explain
ed the ambassador had come to this
country to attend the Yale commence
ment
After his conferences with Secre-
tary Kellogg, Mr.. Sheffield was in
vited here by the president and he is
expected to reach Rapid City at
1920 a. m. tomorrow. He will ne driv-
en- Immediately to the state game
lodge, 80 miles in the hills foc the
night.
Mr.. Coolidge came to Rapid City
early today, having been away from
his desk all of yesterday to attend the
Belle Fourche roundup. One of his
first callers, Charles w. Barton,
Sheridan, Wyo.; publisher, presented
an invitation to visit that city and he
also received Ralph Euler, Pittsburgh
banker, who invited the president to
inspect his 100000 acre ranch at
La Platte, S. D. Both invitations were
taken under advisement.
Mr.. Coolidge also has invitations to
attend an American Legion conven-
ton at Sterling, Colorado and another
rodeo at Cheyenne, Wyo.
What disposition is to be made of
all of these has not been announced.
The presidents next departure from
the summer White House will be July
16 to attend a farmers picnic at Ard

British Declare U. S. Fig

of Discussion

GENEVA, Switzerland, July 6 P)-
Suddenly intervening in the Anglo.
American difficulty over cruiser tom
mage, Japan tonight not only sup
ported the American contention for
low limitation, but insisted tnat
world interests would best be served
by adhering to the original minimum
figures of the United States of $780,
900 tons.
Even British self-confidence was
shaken by this unexpected whole
hearted advocacy of the American
position. which was made at an IN
formal meeting. The British pIeni-
potentiaries seemed to be stunned
for a moment, then w. @. Bridgman,
first lord of the admiralty, is un-
derstood, to have declared: These
figures are impossible as a basis OF
discussion"
This development has in a dram
attic way given a new angle to the
naval conference, ana
means that Great Britain now must
convince Japan and the United
States that high cruiser tonnage
upward of 100000 tons is justifiable.
II may mean increasing chances or
failure OF the conference, for any
treaty Of Geneva must have Great
Britain's approval, and the British
are understood to be determined to
maintain powerful cruiser fleets.
Admiral Saito, Of the Japanese
delegation, invited all the plenlpo-
tentiaries to tea this evening. Those
present included Viscount Isiti, w.
c. Bridgeman, Lord Cecil, Vice Al
liral Sir Frederick L. Field,- Hugh
S. Gibson, Rear Admiral Hillary r.
Jones and Allen W. Dulles Before
asking his guests to proceed to the
elaborately arranged tea table Adj
miral Saito quietly disclosed Japan's
position
Although Admiral Saito suggested
certain notifications of the pro-
jected treaty to meet special Jap,
anese needs, it was thought that
none of these requests would present
difficulties for solution.

FULL SUPPORT
Moneys Will Be Divided
Between Two Ends of
Highway


Decisions that win mean that
Cochise county will have approx
mately 80 miles of paving over the
Bankhead highway and that half
of this will be east of Douglas and
the Bankhead from Benson to ST.
David will be paved during the coming
year were reached last evening when
a joint meeting of the BiSbee and
Douglas chambers of commerce COM
mittees on roads passed two reso-
lutions to be presented to the board
of supervisors at their meeting on
July 15
It was brought out at this meeting
that the state has not used the 25
per cent road fund for maintenance
in this county but has used the IS
per cent fund to the detriment of
new road projects
A resolution was passed calling on
the supervisors. to use the entire rs
per cent fund on paving and it was
specified that this money will be
used half and half on the Benson
end and the Douglas end Of the
Bankhead highway. Those present
estimated that with the moneys that
are allotted to this county from the
rs per cent fund with the federal
aid moneys which will be added to
this sum Douglas will be able to
pave about Is miles of the Bank
head highway east Of this city.
The decision was reached after it
was pointed out that the agreement
to pave from Benson east would give
to district number three enough paw
ing to offset the difference in per-
centage of the regular appropriation
and that the fact that it is agreed
to straighten the road out OF Benson
is an added boom to the north dis
trict so that it is fully expected that
the three supervisors will agree to
the distribution of the funds without
prolonged debate.
Among the projects that district
number one will undertake with Their
appropriation will be the buildine
of a good road from Lowell toward
Fort Huachuca. The pepole at the
fort have requested some such action
and this provision was made in the
resolutions passed at the meeting.
Marking the second meeting OF
Bisbee and Douglas officials without
the least friction there was much
comment among those present on the
great value of cooperation and agree
ment between the two cities. There
were seven men present from Bisbee
and IL from Douglas. The resolu-
tions passed were unanimous. The

AMBASSADOR OF
GREAT BRITAIN
Sees KELLOGG
Connection With Disarma-
ment Conference ArousesI
Speculation

WASHINGTON, July 6, N9--An TN
heralded conference at the state de-
partment today between Secretary
Kellogg and the British ambassador,
Sir Esme Howard, prompted speeula-
ton as to the connection of his con-
versation with the critical status Of
the three-party naval limitation dis
eussion in Geneva.
State department officials refused
to mkae any comment on the alnbas-
sadors' visit beyond the statement
that he had come from the summer
embassy in New England on his own
motion and not in response to a re-
quest from Secretary Kellogg. Sis
Esme was said, at the department., to
have planned an immediate return
to Manchester on the conclusion of
his talk with Mr.. Kellogg.
Government spokesmen would not
discuss in detail the situation that has
arisen at Geneva owing to conflicting
views of the American and British
technical experts as to the total cruiS-
er tonnage requirements fer each
country to be considered in framing
the noncompetitive naval building
program.
It was not even admitted that the
figure of 100000 tons in cruisers for
Great Britain and the United States
mentioned by the American delegation
yesterday, was the limit to which the
Washington authorities possibly could
be induced to go by British argument
for larger tonnage. Despite the Off
cial reticence, however, there was
reason to believe that 100000 tons
figure was virtually the American
outside limit and regarded in Wash
ington as much in excess of the actual
cruiser needs of either country.
Japanese comment on the British
argument for an increase in cruiser
TONNAGE instead of a reduction of
building program or at least status
quo agreement, is being awaited With
considerable interest in Washington
diplomatic circles. Japan's needs for
sharp curtailment of naval eXpendi-
lures due to her economic situation is
generally recognized factor in the ma
val limitations problem. For that rea-
son, it was anticipated by some dip
lomats that the Japanese delegation
would offer strenuous objection to the
enlarged cruiser prOgrem which the
British experts have outlined.
