MORE ADVISORS
 CALLED ON DEBT { PLAN BY HOOVER
Morrow and HOughtOn Are Summoned to Work Out Some of Technical De- tails
By JOSEPH H. BAIRD

United Press Stan C0rrespondent) Washington, June 30.-(UP)-On
 the eve of the day by which Presi- dent Hoover had hoped his debt
 suspension program would be uni versally accepted-July 1-all of the
 interested nations have agreed to 1t except France. Despite pessimistic
 reports from Paris, American off,
 cials remained hopeful to-day that
 France would eventually enter the pact.
 Frances isolation was emphasized in one of the most pointed adminis- tration statements issued since the
 debt negotiations began. After re- ceiving telephonic reports at the White House from Secretary of
 Treasury Mellon, in Paris, Acting Secretary of State Castle said: "It is our understanding that all governments have agreed in princi- pie to the presidents plan except the French government. Some difti- culties have arisen in reconciling the French position with the spirit of the presidents proposal. Discus sions are still continuing between Ambassador Edge and Secretary
 Mellon with the French ministry" Meanwhile. MT Hoover summoned two more advisors, one particularly well-informed by international finance; the other personally con- yersant with conditions in Germany.
 They are Senator Dwight W. Nor
 row of New Jersey, financier and diplomat; and Alanson B. Houghton, former ambassador to Germany and Great Britain.
 As a partner in the international |. -Ixs,, 0f D Morrow learned the intricacies of inter-governmental finance as few
 men know it.
 Houghton, too, knows the finer
 points of diplomacy, but he probably
 will be most valuable to MT Hoover
 as an authority on conditions in
 Germany, where he lived for some time.
 MT Hoover's action in calling
 these men to help his debt plan may
 be likened to that of doctor who summons famous consultant special
 ists.
 As negotiations near what officials
 hope will be their successful end, technical details grow more complex and taxing. In a worldwide deal involving hundreds of millions ot dollars, together with the legal web of postwar financial read1ustments. by-problems mount in geometrical progression. Morrow and Haughton are expected to help the president with some of the more technical phases of his plan.
 Two technical details, it is under
 stood are barring a full understand ing with France. First is the French contention that some Of the money paid into the bank for in | ternational settlements by Germany must be loaned to southeastern Flu ropean countries. These nations it is contended, otherwise would find | it difficult to balance their budgets | in the absence of separations. The second disputed point, 1t IS understood, concerns the term of years in which Germany may com pensate France for the separations she will forego his year. It is be- ] lieved American negotiators are

duction. France may again have to buy up o1,OOO.O0O tons of grain from her African colonies or abroad.
 In 1880 when France produced the deficient harvest of 6,3O0,000 tons. there had been 11,750,000 acres planted.
 But if the weather can remain favorable during July the crop is expected to be slightly in excess og 6,500,000 tons. That will still necessitate the purchase of 100000 tons abroad.
 Last years sugar-beet harvest was the greatest in all history and permitted the eroavedrcoatinshrd permitted the record output of 1,070,000 tons of beet sugar. more than enough for French needs.
 This year there has been a reduce tion of 10 per cent in beet planting, so that, with normal harvest the French sugar production in 1881 should fall to around S00,000 tons.

Paris - (UP) - Adverse weather conditions since planting have caused an involuntary reduction of French wheat and sugar-beet crop prospects, which may go far to help solve Europe's problem of over production. In accordance with pledges made at recent sugar and wheat conferences, France had vol untarily reduced planting, so that the combined lessened production should be noticeable next autumn.

1t is high time His expert

as no other available Democrat
in the country is qualified, for
the Presidency. He has been
much talked about as a candi-
date, but there has been no or

We nope that the Baker forces

TO HIDALCO
Compromise Offere d
I'm Claims of Coun-
ty In Old Case

EDTNBURG, July 28-The "A. Y.
Baker home in Edinburg, the
Million Dollar Home OF the Million
aire Sheriff" has been offered by
the Baker estate as part OF a COM
promise to the county.
This information became known
yesterday when the proposed COM
promise TO wipe out a $685. 900 claim
OF the county against the old Edin-
burg State Bank and Trust Co.
was presented to the commissioners
court by an attorney retained by
the county for litigation proceed
ings. The hearing began az 500
and lasted until 1880.
The court did not take action on
the proposed compromise, but took
the matter under advSement. Such
a compromise proposal has been
expected for several weeks, IS the
claim was launched after an audit
by the firm Of Ernst and Ernst
some time ago.
The Baker and o. o. Norwood
proposal as reclted TO the court by
an attorney fer the county includes
S46l 900 In outstanding warrants
and scrip. The items are s1l2,0 900
principal in flood control warrants,
$4,000 Cott Index warrants. s70.-
600 Colt index warrants, S145 900
flood control warrants. $4,000 flood
control warrants, s2,031 general
funding script warrants, and ap-
pr0ximately S125,000 miscellaneous
warrants, mostly general funding
Warrants. All except the S2-O81 item
are interest bearing warrants, ac-
cording to the statement.
In addition TO offering the s40i.-
600 in warrants, IL was proposed to
offer the assets Of the old Edtnburg
State Bank at the time the Amer
lean State Bank and Trust COM
pany took Il over. with the excep-
ton Of a $4,000 lien. a debt OF the
old Edinburg bank to the American
bank. They also propose 70 release
the liens on personal assets. but
to continue to hold the Lens on
real estate. The old Edinburg bank
Is estimated 20 have been worth
between $3.50. 900 and $780, 900, the
attorney recited.
The meeting was probably the
most important OF any session OF
the commissioners court this year,
although sessions have been held
almost daily.
Commissioners asked one repre-
sentative citizen from each precinct
10 be present at the meeting. and
give views and opinions to the
court. after the proposed compro-
missed was presented Judge Neal
Brown of Edinburg, +. E. Bennett
Of Mercedes. @. K. Leslie OF Nc
Allen and Henry Burgevin OF NJ
sion spoke on the proposed COM
promise.
Judge Brown declared the pro-
posal ridiculous. illegal and un-
constitutional. and advised the
court not to give It serious thought,
further advising TO fight the just
claims OF the county. Curgevin en-
dorsed Judge Browns views. and
reminded the court Of campaign
promises. quoting from the good
government lc@yue platform to the
effect that all officials promised TO
fight illegal proceedings Of the last
administration.
