MELLON REPORTED
ABOUT TO RESIGN
Wants Debt Parleys in Hands of
Younger Man, London
Declaration.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON, July 25.-The Daily Herald
said today Ambassador Andrew w
Mellon "is expected to resign" when
he arrives in Washington on his present
trip to the United States. 1T is be-
lieved he will tell President Hoover the
coming negotiations on war debts should
be in the hands of a younger man
than he," the Herald added.
The London newspapers have been
making something of a mystery of the
Ambassadors trip home ever since he
left here week ago today, declaring
he was going to the United States for
a holiday, taking advantage of dull
period in embassy work.
He himself said the trip had no
political significance.
Today, however, his leaving was
coupled with the departure of the Brit
ish Ambassador, Sir Ronald Lindsay,
from Washington and other newspapers
besides the Herald printed dispatches
from New York and Washington specu-
lating on the coincidence.
Before he left here the Ambassador
indicated to his associates he intended
to remain in the United States two or
three weeks and be back in London
before the end Of August. So far as
wcs known in official circles here today
his plans have not been changed
There has been no official intimation
whatever that he had any intention of
relinquishing his post. The visit is
purely personal. it was said, and was
planned some time ago.

CONSUMER COMMITMENT PLAN
FOR PROSPERITY TO BE STUDIED
u S. Chamber of Commerce Will Consider Program
Advanced by Milwaukee Body to Boost Purchases.

More simply" said Harry B. Hall,
president of the association and head
of a firm of appraisers, I'VE propose
to ask every employed American to
promise to buy something ne needs,
and promise to buy. 1t is important to
note, only on condition that he will
keep his present job, or get a better
Clt.
Take out of the mind of the worker
the numbing fear that he will lose his
employment, and you will find the
worker is willing to spend a dollar
That dollar will make itself felt
throughout the economic structure and
in the end 1t will create new job"
The Milwaukee association asks that
the Chamber of Commerce use the
machinery of its organization-tempo-
rarily dropping every other activity II
necessary-to haul prosperity back into
the American picture.
The Milwaukee prosperity planners
would have business associations every

STIMSON SILENT ON PLAN.
State Department Makes No Comment
on BOrah Speech.
BY CONSTANTINE BROWN.


The State Department refused to state
today whether Secretary StimSonS pol
icy of mo discussion of reparationS,
debts, disarmament and tariffs at the
coming international Economic Confer
ence" still held good, in view of Senator
Borahs radio address Saturday. As
sistant Secretary Rogers, at the press
conference this morning, was asked
whether Secretary's Stimson's policy,
announced three weeks ago, would be
affected by Senator Borah's statement.
He replied that the department had no
comment to make.
1t is known that the personal rela-
tions between the Secretary of State
and the chairman of the Senate's For
eign Relations Committee are very cor
dial. But whether in the matter of
cancellation of debts the two men see
eve to eye nobody knows. Secretary
Stimson's statement three weeks ago
opposing a discussion of the debt and
disarmament questions, referred to the
economic conference to be held, pre-
sumably in London, some time in the
Fall. Whether Senator Borah had the
same conference in mind when he spoke
last Saturday, or whether he thought Of
some other conference, Is not clear
from his speech.
In any case. in the light of Senator
Borah's speech. this refusal to COM
ment on the Secretary's previous un-
equivocal statement might give rise to
varied interpretations. 1t is natural,
however, that the State Department
should try to avoid during the electoral
campaign any controversial topics such
as the advisability of considering can
collation. of the allied debts. Whatever
the thoughts of the high officials OH
this subject may be, they are bound TO
remain secret, at least until the presi-
Dental election is over.
Senator Borah's address has caused
a deep impression in Washington diplo-

OFFICER ENDS LIFE
ABOARD NAVAL SHIP
Lieut.. Edgar W. Hampson Be.
lieved Despondent Over Charge
Of 0verstaying Leave.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
SAN DIEGO, Calf, July 25.-Edgar
w. Hampson, lieutenant, junior grade,
attached to the submarine tender U. S.
S. Holland, ended his life aboard the
ship late last night by swallowing
poison, naval authorities reported.
Hampson recently had been arrested
on charge of oyer-staying his leave
from the ship, and despondency over
this was believed responsible.
Navy Department records show that
Lieut.. Edgar Wilson HampSon'S home
was given in 1928 as 1868 Columbia
road, here, but he never had duty in
the National Capital He named as his
beneficiary Mrs Kathryn Coggins
Hampson, his wife, officials said.
Lieut.. HampSon was born in Chicago,
Ill, on January 26, 1899. He entered
the Naval Academy from Missouri In
1917 and was commissioned an ensign
in June, 1920. He was qualified for
commanding submarines and had COM
pleted a course in submarine instruc-
ton. He was on duty at the Naval
Academy and served on the Navy rifle
team. A course at the Naval Air Sta
ton at Pensacola, Fla, was taken be-
fore he returned to the submarines.
Prior to going aboard the U. S. g.
Holland, Lieut.. Hampson served aboard
the U. s. s. Bonita, a submarine. He
had some 10 years duty at sea during
his naval career.
