Rover said the report would be pre-

The report by the Army physicians at

Rover said the Government believes
after perusal Of this report that Fall
is able to come Immediately to Wash

Falls private physicians have said
that he could not stand the trip to
Washington.

INVERNESS CLUB, TOLEDO, Ohio,
July George Won Elm took a one
stroke lead over Billie Burke today after
18 holes of their second 36-hole play-o

II.
They were all square at the seven

since the tournament began last Thurs
day-but Burke fiubbed his pitch shot
like an ordinary duffer on the 325-yard
home hole. This cost him S, Won Elm

barely missed the cup for another of
Georges favorite brides.
The continuation Of the record
marathon for the open crown
was another ding dong battle. Won
Elm was off quickly to a three-stroke
lead in the first three holes, but Burke
drew level at the seventh, then took
the lead with a birdie at the ninth.
They were all square at the twelfth
and again at the fifteenth as the for

Won Elm complained that the click
of a camera shutter upset him as he
was making shot out of a trap on
the thirteenth. He went clear across
the green into another sand pit and
wound up with 5. Burke picked up
two strokes here. but lost them both
at the fifteenth, where he gambled
with spoon and shot of the side of
a trap and pushed it away off the line
across a road and into the side of the
creek band. From there he went over
the green and finally got down in 6.
Billie's birdie at the sixteenth put
him in front again, but poor second
shot on the seventeenth, into the
rough, and his dubbed approach on the
eighteenth, each cost him one stroke
and the lead.
Burke's n was his poorest round Of

McGovern, Independent Laborite men,
Der of the House of Commons for

fight for the right to speak on Glasgow

speak on the green. AS soon as, he
arose a policeman demanded to see his
permit for the meeting. McGovern had
none. The inspector took his name and
those of dozen supporters.
IF we are prosecuted and fined, the
fines will not be paid by me or any,

NEW DEBT FORMULA
IS SENT TO MELLON
Castle Says SimpIified Plan
Will Offer Constructive .
Solution to Problems.
BY G. GOULD LINCOLN.

"A new end simplified formula pro-
v1ding that the United States and
France agree ION certain major ques-
tons" involved in the Hoover debt sus-
pension plan and that all technical
questions be left to q committee Of
Treasury experts, has been transmitted
to Secretary Mellon by the American
Government and by him to the French
Government, 1t was announced at the
State Department today by the acting
Secretary of State, William Castle, jr.
All technical questions and repara-
tionS in kind, which have been the lat
est stumbling block to an accord be-
tween the two governments, under the
new formula would be dealt with by a
committee Of experts of the different
powers involved In the debt suspension
plan. 1t is stipulated. however, that
this committee should reach solution
Of these questions within the broad
spiri. Of the Presidents proposal"
Optimistic Of Success.
IT the French government accepts
this latest formula, it Is believed here
an accord may be reached within a very
S1AOAt tAAIlC, POSSAOly COulkAI.
The American Government, headed by
President Hoover, is anxious that the
debt suspension plan shall be put into
operation without further delay. The
fear is expressed here that If the plan
shall be held up by prolonged negotia-
tons over technical points, the full
benefit to the economic situation in the
world may be lost.
The Acting Secretary of State, Mr..
Castle, in his statement to the press,
declared that this Government believes
the Presidents debt suspension plan
will become effective.
Until this Government is further in
formed by Mr. Mellon as to the atti-
tude Of the French government to this
latest proposal, no further statement
will be forthcoming, it is believed Ac-
cording to dispatches from Paris, Mr.
Mellon was to meet with the French
again at pm, Washington time which
Is pm. in Paris, and to receive the
reply OF the French in all probability
at that conference.
Castle Issues Statement.
The statement issued by the acting
Secretary of State, Mr.. Castle, follows
I'VE have no misgivings that the
Presidents plan will become effective.
The French government did not accept
our note of July 4, which was pub
lished this morning, as the basis for an
arrangement. They have raised sew
eral new questions which have not been
hitherto discussed, many of which in
volve relations between the Signatories
to the Young plan to which we are
not party, and which, of course, we
cannot pretend to be able to negotiate.
They also ask our Government to
undertake obligations in the providing
of loans to other governments and to
facilitate the floating of securities in
the United States, which questions lie
entirely outside of the province of our
Government. These suggestions are due,
