EXPERTS FAIL
TO AGREE ON
DEBT VALUES
Preparations Conference
Deadlock Hopeless After
Long Session.
BY FREDERICK KUN
United Press STAFF Cnrresnondent


THE HAGUE, Aug. 20.-HopeS Of
saving the reparations conference a:
a result of the treasury experts eff
forts to establish the value Of the
compromise offer of France, Italy
Belgium and Japan to Great Britain
was virtually shattered early today
After working until l a. NJ, the
experts admitted their final report
would constitute a complete inabil-
ity to agree in the value of the four
power offer. The experts from each
nation insisted on an entirely differ
ent figure.
1t was admitted the value Of the
four power offer was generally
placed at higher figure than the
English at first insisted on con-
STRUNG it, but it is not believed to
be sufficient to result in acceptance
by Philip Snowden, British chan
ccllor Of the eXchequer.
Germans Propose Protocol
The German delegation to the
conference, fearing the conference
might expire without Foreign Min
lister GuStave Stresemann reaping
any tangible fruits to carry back to
Berlin, was expected today to pro-
pose a protocol to be signed by all
of the nations participating in the
conference, in which Germany and
the former allies would proclaim adj
herencc to and acceptance of the
Young plan.
Signature OF the protocol would
further enumerate the points which
still must be settled, according to
the German idea, and announce the
subcommittee remaining at the
Hague to finish the task. This
protocol is envisioned by the Ger
mans as climaxing the conference,
which is expected to terminate
Saturday. and is intended to serve
a two-fold purpose.
First it would show the world
audience the conference is not
fruitleSS and save the statesmen as
sembled here for nearly three weeks
from the humiliation of returning
home without their tasks accom-
plished. Second, it would enable the
German nation to declare the Young
plan, owing to the governments &C.
Ceptance, is effective Sept. /, hence
after that date Germany would in
Sjst Oh paying only the lower Young
plan reparationS instead of the
Dawes plan payments.
Would Continue Control
The Germans suggest that pend
ing the ratification of the Young
plan by the various parliamentS,
S. Parker Gilbert, American agent
general for reparations, continue to
administer operation of reparations
machinery.
The German project for the
termination of the conference is
likely to encounter stiff opposition
from the powers which hope to ex-
act the larger Dawes plan repara-
tons payments from Germany until
the Young plan is ratified several
months hence. But Germany may
insist upon this concession as a
compensation for her subordination
of German interests to the financial
quarrel between Great Britain and

EARLY MAILERS
DEUCE SANTA
With REQUESTS
From Something to Eat,
Down to Toys Is Asked
by Tots.
BY LOWELL NUssBAUM

Mail early" campaigns are not
needed to convince youthful army
Of Indianapolis Santa Claus wor-
shippers of the Importance of eally
mailing.
Taking time by the forelock, in
order to get their requests in be-
fore Santa and his aides become
rushed. a large number of children
have begun pouring letters ad-
dressed to Santa Claus, North
Pole" into the Indianapolis post
Office.
Humor and pathos are found
upon opening these curiously adj
dressed missives.
Something to Eat, Too"
Father is sick and with ten chill
dren, he can't get us any toys" one
10-year-old boy wrote. I'VE would
like to have some toys as well as
other children. And Santa, please
send us something 70 eat, too"
A small envelope, addressed "Mr.
Santa Claus, North Pole, World,
R. r. 3, from Billy, aged d." in an
adult handwriting, contained two
sheets of paper, each filled front and
back with wavy lines in imitation
of handwriting.
One helpful youth listed ten ar
ticles he wished Santa to bring,
after each item listing the retail
price. These included: Bicycle, $40;
gym set, 81; basketball, $3.50; car
penter set, $3.50; concrete mixer,
SITS; roller skates, 81"
Wants Electric Gas Stove
Santa's little friend, Leila, wrote,
asking for a set of books, electric
gas stove" table, chairs, pots, pans,
mixing bowl, sled and a pare of
PanSeS and vilin."
Foresighted Bobby wrote II
heard you last night. I would like
toy gun, little fire truck, a dummy
watch and a 70 Yo. That is all I
want this year and will want some
thing else next; so will close"
Another pathetic plea from a Z
year-old boy, apparently written by
an older child, was: II have no
daddy and 1 am afraid mother can't
get everything I want. I want a
scooter, a pair of shoes and cap"
These letters, and others that may
follow between now and Christmas,
will be turned over to the Christmas
clearing house. After conditions in
the homes have been checked, the
letters will be distributed to various
charitable organizations of the city
for response.

CASE VERDICT
Illinois Jury DeIiberateS
Over His Claim for
$4,000 Balm.

BIZ United PTess
ROCKFORD. Ill, Nov. 28.-No
Thanksgiving sermon came today
from the lips of the Rev. John A
Logan Warren, unfrocked Methodist
minister, but he prayed in solitude
that the public and a jury had been
convinced he was not guilty of i'm
moral relations with a 17-year-old
servant girl
His denial rang through the cir
cult courtroom here yesterday as he
testified in his $50 900 SANDER suit
against seven former parishioners
whom he charges with conspiring to
besmirch his reputation and GUST
him from the pulpit of the Meth
odist church at Durand, III.
Il did not, sir" the preacher said
in clear. firm voice when he was
asked whether he had ever carried
Hazel Lamb up the stairs in the
parsonage.
Smiles at Question
A smile fitted across his face at
the question. He seemed as much
at home in the witness chair as he
formerly had in the pulpit.
Il did not" he said again when
asked if he ever had improper re-
lations with Miss Lamb, whose
charges against him resulted in his
custer and unfrocking and forced
him to take up a pick and shovel
as a day laborer.
On the morning Hazel Lamb left
the parsonage. did Mrs. Warren hit
you on the head with the stove
poker and try to choke the girl?"
was another question.
"She did not" Mrs. Warren
answered.
Calmly and firmly. the minister
denied ever having been alone in
the house with the girl, or having
made any advances. He said he had
not put his arm around her when
taking her home from the church
in an automobile.
Mr.. Warren told of a visit a
church committee made to the par
sonage in regard to a whispering
report" that there was immortality
in the pastors house
Decision Friday Morning
Eve feel that your period of use
fulness in our congregation is end
ed,' the minister quoted Everett
Derwent as saying to him.
81 answered that I didn't agree
with him." Warren said, and he
went on, saying, No mans reputa-
ton can survive a womans attack
He followed with threats of unfavor-
able publicity and others in the
group said, Wen see that you
get it,"
Counsel for Warren rested his case
and defense attorneys moved for a
directed verdict of not guilty. Judge
Fisher said he would give his deci-
sion Friday morning. The jury was
allowed to go home over Thanks
giving, cautioned not to read about
nor discuss the trial.
