j. s. TRIES TO EASE
PAYMENT OF DEBTS
Expecting InstaIIments, Aim
Is Least Disturbance to In
ternationaI Exchanges.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The administration was understood
last night to be preparing for the re-
sumption of war debt payments on De-
cember is and seeking a method of
collection that would create as little
disturbance in the international ex-
changes as possible.
OF course, there is no certainty that
Great Britain and France, whose
lengthy appeals for postponement were
received last week, will make the pay
ments, but there is a general impress
sion here that the installments will be
met.
President Hoover is expected to refer
the whole subject to Congress this week
with renewal of his appeal for creation
OF commission to consider debt relief
later, but with a firm stand against
postponement Of payments.
Disarmament One Aim.
1t IS becoming plain that this Gov
eminent intends to have as a part of
any program for debt relief some show
of disarmament by the European
powers.
Senator Watson of Indiana, the Re-
publican leader, made this emphatic
yesterday.
THE weakness of both the British
and French notes" he said 'is that
they omit altogether the subjects of
disarmament and of cooperation with
us in any way or for any purpose.
In other words, they say they want
our money to equip more armies and
battleships. That is precisely what the
American people will not stand for.
Expects Prompt Payment.
''It occurs to me that nothing will be
gained by another series of notes be-
tween the governments. The 18th is
the pay day and the nations must
understand that 1t Is the fixed policy
OF the Government to have them pay
on that day"
Other Republicans and Democrats
Joined in this view and there is reason
to believe that Watson, as majority
leader, speaks somewhat the attitude
of the administration.
Meanwhile, signs developed of con-
siderable debate in Congress over debts.
No chance whatever appears in pros
pect for authorization OF a debt COM
mission such as proposed by the
President.
Also. Senator McKellar, Democrat, of
Tennessee. intends to inquire into the
statements in the British and French
notes tying up this Government with
the Lausanne Conference of last Sum-
mer on German reparations. Mr..
Hoover has denied any commitments
on his part or by this Government with
the European powers on this agreement.

somely illustrated catalogue statement
of the purpose of the exhibition, as fol-
lows:
1T is the aim of the Corcoran Gal
lery of Art to present to the public,
with the close cooperation of our Jury,
an exhibition of oil paintings by living
American artists which accurately re-
fleets the trend of contemporary paint
ing in this country; which illustrates
as completely as possible what Ameri-
can painters of today are doing; which
is broad and truly representative in its
scope and character, and which in
cludeS the best available works exem-
plifying the different schools and phases
of painting as they now actually exist.
ANY exhibition of contemporary art
which fails to cover all phases of cur
rent painting would be biased, would
illustrate only part of the entire cur
rent art movement and would defeat
the fundamental object of the exhibi-
ton, which is to show contemporary
American painting as it actually is, and
not as any individual or group might
like 1t to be. 1t is felt and hoped that
the contrast between the different
phases of painting which this exhibition
shows will add greatly to its interest
and serve to give our visitors deeper
understanding and keener appreciation
of the work of American painters.
Every one, of course, realizes that
within recent years, as in past centuries,
the work of creative artists has under
gone change. This is true not only of
painting. but also of sculpture, litera-
ture, music, the drama and practically
every form of artistic expression.
{e IL.
exhibition will accomplish the under
lying purpose for which it and its
predecessors have been organized; that
visitors. in studying the exhibition, will
not lose sight Of this objective; that
they will consider, in so far as is pos
sible, the viewpoints of the artists who
created these paintings, and that the
public and the world of art will derive
from them, thus viewed, understanding
enjoyment and inspiration"
The jury which passed on paintings
for the exhibition and which selected

the prize winners was composed of
Clifford Beal, noted New York artist,
chairman; Waylnan Adams and Ernest
Lawson. also New York painters; Ed
ward w. Redfleld, the well known New
Hope. Pa, artist; j. H. Gest, director
emeritus of the Cincinnati Museum As
sociation, and Charles Rosen, Wood
stock, N. Y, artist, who substituted for
Mr.. Adams when the latter was called
away before he could complete his jury
service. Several members of the jury
were observed among the crowds at
the opening last night.
A poignant touch to the current show
was the presence of two of the last
beloved patriarch Of American art, who
died few days ago. His two striking
entries in the show are "Sunbath" and
Indian Summer" Beneath each of
these pictures was a memorial tribute
of palm leaves. OSher works by this
artist are shown in the auxiliary COL
lection of American paintings from the
permanent collection. Mr.. Melchers
was a trustee of the Corcoran Gallery.
The Clark prizes, aggregating $4,000,
are part of the income from a fund
donated by the late Senator william A.
Clark of Montana, whose world-famous
art collection now is part of the
Corcoran's permanent exhibition. An
endowment established by Mrs. Clark
provides the funds for organizing the
biennial exhibitions.
Surplus income from both of these
funds may be used, in the discretion
of the trustees of the gallery, for the
acquisition of works by American artists
for the permanent collection of the in

BRITISH AWAIT REPLY.
Question of Paying to Be Decided After
u. S. Acts.

LONDON, December 4 OPT ap-
peared likely today that the decision on
the question of making the December
Is war-debt payment to the United
States would await a reply to the sec
ond British debt note or official action
on that note by the American Govern
ment.
Sunday newspapers carried no state
ments or inferences that an official
decision has been reached on whether
all, part or any of the payment would
be made, although r. j. Barrett, finan-
cial editor of the Times, said: "If the
United States insists. it will receive
payment in gold"
For the last few days there has been
growing belief that the December
payment would be made before the
Government would hear of default, al
though payment Of the S65,550000 in
terest and postponement of the $4,000
600 principal have been suggested.

FRANCE MARKING TINE.
Deputy Tells Socialist Congress to Await
Negotiations.

PARIS, December (P.-A plea for
faith in the efficacy of the debt negotia-
tons with the United States was made
today by Deputy Pierre Vienot in q
speech before the congress of the
French Socialist party, which has IL
seats in the Chamber of Deputies.
M. Vienot said that France morally
did not owe the debt because she has
been deprived of reparations from Ger
many, but he asserted that it was
necessary to face the point of view of
the United States, which is troubled
with unemployment.
Asked if destruction of the Franco
American contract would not be "an
lnadmlssable procedure" he said that
it was necessary to hope that America
would understand ''the tragic situation
of France"

Links Body Is Played for
Failure to Name Goodman
By United Press

By United Press
NEW YORK, July 1-Failure of
the U. S. G. A. to name Johnny
Goodman, brilliant young Omaha
golfer for the Walker Cup team,
sent whirlwind of protest swirling
about the heads of the amateur
golfing body today.
Goodman, the United Press has
been led to believe, was omitted be-
cause of the diSfavor in which he
is held by golf officialdom.
Prejudices against him arose some
years ago when he was a salesman
for a sporting goods firm. He did
not capitalize upon his golfing abil-
ity, He might as we'll have been a
shoe clerk or a pharmacist. But
Johnny listened to the objections
of his business connections and be-
gan to sell insurance.
Goodman had the temerity to
beat the great Bobby Jones in the
first round of the 1929 amateur at
Pebble Beach. Obviously gate re-
ceipts suffered on subsequent tour
nament days.

Ever since 1929, Goodman has
been a consistent low scorer in
tournament play. He was first anna
teur in this years open at Fresh
Meadow in which he was good
enough to card a final round of 68.
The United Press today asked
Herbert H. Ramsay, U. S. G. A.
president, as to reasons for Good
mans omission:
I'VE can not discuss candidates
for the team Ramsay said.
Was his omission based on his
amateur status?"
There is no question that Good
man is an amateur. Half a dozen
players in addition to those selected
were considered. Goodman's onis-
sion had no reference to his anna
teur status whatever"
Most of the experts also feel that
Gus Moreland of Dallas should not
have been omitted. AS in Good
mans case there is a sub-current
OF understanding that prejudices
have worked against him.
