Revision Considered.
Although an official communique
stated that the discussion concerned the
constitution of the committee of experts,
1t is understood generally that revision
OF the Dawes plan, the very basis of
the reparations problem, was consid-
cred at length.
The Havas Agency says that Premier
Poincare and Mr.. Churchill are in
agreement on all essential principles
The English contention is set forth in
the Balfour note has been that demand
should be made from Germany and
allied debtors only such payments as are
indispensable to meet English indebted
ness to the United States. The French
policy has been that France must obtain
from Germany enough to repay the
United States in addition to a refund
of expenses incurred IN reconstruction
of devastated regions.
Mr.. Gilbert is understood to have
explained at the conference how fan
Germany could meet Great Britain anc
France toward fixation and commercial.
ization of the war debt.

would have q clean slate, receiving
nothing and paying nothing.
Jugoslavia, Japan. Portugal and Italy
would heceive small sums. Belgium
would receive over $780, 100000, and
France $1,750,000, or over half the cost
of actual reconstruction. The United
States would receive the largest sum
of all, $4,000. 900, 900.
1t is said that all concerned have an
interest in accepting this plan or some
thing like it. Germany would get
big reduction of her debt, freedom from
foreign financial control, new sense
of financial certainty. and probably i'm
mediate, full evacuation of the Rhine
land France would get free of her
debts to Great Britain and the United
States and recover half of the recon-
struction costs. Great Britain would
get free of her debt to the United
States and the benefit Of increased
peace and prosperity on the continent
The United States would exchange the
uncertainties of so years for a con-
siderable cash payment and would
benefit commercially and financially by
the improved situation in Europe.
Some Hitches May Occur.
Nevertheless, it is doubtful If the
principal powers will accept this plan
at the outset of negotiations. If only
for reasons of interior politics, they
must first make show of great stub
bornness and hard bargaining.
1t is understood, however, that both
Premier Poincare and Mr. Gilbert are
optimistic. The latter has just come
from London and Berlin, and is known
to be in touch with Washington. He
must, therefore, have some plausible
basis for his feeling of confidence that
the present is propitious time for
final liquidation of the war;

and laughed with him. And when he
gave his views on prohibition, Chicago's
thirsty multitude went wild with en-
thusiasm. At one point he pledged
himself to rigid enforcement of the dry
laws If he were elected, and the en-
thusiasts roared just as though they
would be content never to taste another
drop Of beer or whisky.
Family Is Cheered.
Before Gov. Smith entered the hall
Mrs. Smith, wearing a gray costume
and hat and gray fur, was escorted
TO the platform, and after her followed
her daughters, Mrs. John H. Warner
and Mrs. Francis j. Quillinan, and "Al
. Junior" They too were cheered by the
crowd
When the meeting was over, more
thousands gathered on the lake front
before the Congress Hotel, and there at
10 o'clock fireworks display was
staged. The detonation of aerial
bombs shook the city for 80 minutes,
single explosions and then volleys of
them, bringing to a close the Chicago
welcome to Gov. Smith
Again and again in his address the
governor reverted to the pledge of the
Republican platform that the record of
the present administration is a guar
antee of what may be expected of the
next. The crowd caught his meaning
when he read his text the first time,
and roared its mirth He added a
phrase-'if we win"-to the text of the

On this automobile trip he visited

Side, he passed through Chicago's

people live
At Northwestern University a stop
was made and the students there greeted
the governor with cheer all their own.
1T went as follows:

Gov Smith chatted with President
Walter Dill Scott of the university, who
greeted the governor in cap and gown
and with Melvin Traylor, trustee, a sup

panied the governor on his trip. One of
the co-eds wanted to know what Mrs.
