JAIL REF0RNER
FOR DEBT

CHICAGO, June q G,N.S0.
The Rev. Philip Yarrow, noted
vice crusader and reformer, was

to pay a $4,000 judgment OBJ

superintendent of the Illinois
Vigilance Association, of selling
one of his agents an obscene book.
Shaver was acquitted and then
sued Yarrow for malicious prose

He was awarded $4,000 last March
27. Yarrow has not paid nor ap-

Evidence at the trial was that
the book, "A Night in a Moorish

Shaver ordered it.

Mellon, Edge Hold
Three-HOur COnfGb
With BRAND, Laval

PARIS, June ~ INS0.-For
three hours this afternoon, United
States Secretary of the Treasury
Andrew w. Mellon conferred with
members of the French CABINET
over the proposal Of President
Hoover for a years suspension OF
all debt and reparations pay
ments.
At the conclusion Of the con.
ference, Premier Pierre Laval
issued a statement indicating no
final decision had been reached
on reconciling the original Hoover
proposal with the reservations
imposed by France IN its mes
sage Of acceptance.
The conference was held at the
ministery of the interior. It was
attended by Premier Laval, Secre-
tary Mellon, United States Ambas-
sador Walter Evans Edge, Foreign
Minister Aristide BRAND, Finance
Minister Pierre Etienne Flandln,
Minister of the Budget Francois
Pietri, and Francois Poncet,
president of the National Assem-
bly,. Laval said:
1--WE examined Mr.. HOOver'S
proposal and the French gov.
ernment's response.
1--WE will confer again on
Monday"
Outcome In Doubt

American Government Frances
reply might have been, it went
Just about as far as the Chamber
Of Deputies would countenance.
AS last nights debate began, 1t
seemed none too certain that M
Laval's cabinet would survive, de-
spite general recognition of the
fact that a cabinet crisis at this
time would have been a calamity
with possible worldwide effects.
For a while it appeared that

would be able to turn out the
cabinet.

Half q Moratorium
French Plan Places
Limitation on Laval

The French parliament's ap-
proval Of "haif moratorium" for
Germany for one year has compli-
Gated rather than Simplified the
difficult task Of adjusting the
French and American view points
on President Hoover's proposal,
according to the way Washing.
ton looked at it today.
While it is true that the cham
ber's vote of confidence in the
Laval government has provided
the foundation for negotiations,
it was pointed out that in so
doing the chamber placed a
severe limitation upon Premier
Lavars authority in going the
full way to meet President
Hoover.
The resolution which the
French chamber adopted this
morning after a stormy all-night
session, declared the chamber
counts upon it (the government
to assure intangibility of the un
conditional annuity due from
Germany.
In. other words. the chamber
looks to the Laval government
not to yield on the proposition
of making Germany raise and
deposit in the International Settle
ments Bank the approximately
$11O,O00,000 due under the un
conditional provisions Of the
Young Plan.

position in world politics If she
obstructed a movement designed
to restore economic stability.
Mellon Hears Debate
When the debate opened, Secre
tary Mellon sat in the gallery OF
the historic Palais Bourbon and
heard heated criticism of Ameri
cans. Several speakers declared
that Hoover's proposal had been
served upon France as an ulti
matum.
Speaker after speaker demanded
to know if the cabinet had as
surance that any agreement
reached would be ratified by the
American Congress. Louis Marin
the Nationalist leader, referring
to the American Presidents pro
posal, said:
Calvin Coolidge once wrote
a letter in which he declared
the American people respect
their word Of honor It is
strange to note the manner in
which President Hoover pro-
poses to carry out that word of
honor. President Wilson gave
his word of honor that Con-
gress would ratify the treaty Of
Versailles. 1t did not. Will
Congress ratify Mr.. HOOver's
prOposal?"
