Hopeless Deadlock Over
Currency Problem Is
Cause of Move.
u. S. STAND Is BLAMED

Held Only Solution After
Roosevelt Message.

United Press STAFF Correspondent


LONDON, July 4.-Repre-
sentatives of eight leading ma
tons at the world economic
conference, which convened
but twenty-five days ago to
lift the world out of depres-
sion, today recommended i'm
mediate adjournment of the
conference because of a hope
less deadlock on the currency
problem.
A meeting Of the steering COM
mlttee, composed of chief delegates
OF the great powers, was called for
p. m. I'll a. m, Indianapolis time)
10 draft formula for suspension.
This will be submitted to a plen-
airy session of all delegates to the
conference, probably Wednesday.
Formula to Be Framed
The formula will be framed u
permit few pitifully unimportant
subcommittee, such as that on CO.
ordination of production, to carry
on, If the conference desires-either
mere, now, or at Geneva, home of
the League of Nations-later.
The exact wording of the formu-
Ia remained indefinite, an official
announcement said, but it would
include provision for indefinite
monetary matters.
James M. Cox, vice-chairman of
the United States delegation. was
at the secret meeting which decided
on adjournment, as was Ramsay
Macdonald, chairman of the con-
ference and British prime minister,

nounced the United States would
seek TO continue the conference, and
would ask that it embark on 4
world price-raising program in furi
therance of the planned effort I'd
lit the world out of depression.
The United States still has
chance to oppose the action botA
at the steering committee meeting
and at a plenary session.

standard men at President Roosev
velt's telegram which precipitated
the crisis.
Macdonald sat silent while Hen,
drikus Collin, premier of gold stand

ment, and Georges Bonnet of gold
standard France, seconded.
Blame Roosevelt Telegram
Walter Runciman, president of
the board of trade in the British
cabinet; Carl V. Krogmann, Ger
many; Thomas A. Lebreton, Argen-
tina; Guido Jung, Italy, and DR..
Victor Kienbock, Austria, were the
others at the meeting.
1t was agreed at the meeting that
President RooSevelt's telegram and
an answering statement in which
representatives of gold standard ma
ions reaftlrmed their adherence to
their opposing views brought the
conference to deadlock.
Suspension, it was agreed, was
the only solution, constituting as it
old a confession that solution was
impossible.

new PROPOSAL
DRAWN BY CITY
in BUS MATTER
SEVERAL NEW PROPOSITIONS
MADE IN CONNECTION
WITH QUESTION OF DIS
CONTINUING SERVICE

The city council, at special
meeting held last night, drew up
a new proposal to be submitted to
the Key West Electric Company
in connection with the matter OF
discontinuance of street bus serv-
ice in Key West.
The city is asking for certain
changes in rates on street light
ing as well as a reduction in
the general lighting system.
The city will agree to officially
relieve the electric company of its
obligation pertaining to its fran
chise to operate bus system pro-
viding that the electric company
agrees to the proposal as submit
ted for their consideration.
The electric company a short
time ago submitted a proposal to
the city on the proposition, but
this was not favorable to the city
body.
Embodied in the proposal as
outlined by the council last night
is that the electric company can
eel the entire Indebtedness owed
by the city for street lighting up
to the present time, and that the
company also pay its current
taxes in cash, which amount would
be approximately $4,000. The
city's indebtedness to the electric.
company runs around $4,000.
In addition to this the city asks
that the street lighting be reduc-
ed from S23.16 per light a year to
SO on a two-year contract, with
the city reserving the right to use
a minimum of 283 lights. There
are about 575 lights now in use.
The city also asks that the rates
on the general lighting system be
reduced from $16.08 cents per
killowatt hour to Is cents, with 5
percent reduction for prompt pay
ment of bills.
The city would also have the
service charge on electricity re-
duced 40 percent, with a sugges-
ton for residential rates instead
of service charge, making the first
20 killowatts Is cents, next ten,
10 cents, and the next seventy, IS
cents, with 8 cents to be charged
in excess of 100 k;llowatts.
The proposal, as drawn up last
night, was only in tentative form,
and is subject to change by the
council before submitting it to the
electric company for considera-
ton.

LOSES STATUS in
ITS APPLICATION
BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF FL
NANCE CORPORATION
TAKES ADVERSE ACTION
AT MEETING TUESDAY
ny PAUL MAY
Special Washington Correspondent
OF The Citizen


WASHINGTON, March 2.-The
Overseas Bridge Corporations
loan application lost it's pending
status at the Reconstruction Fl
nance Corporation Tuesday af-
ternoon when the board of direc-
tors, acting upon a recommends
ton from the engineer advisory
board, voted to refuse the loan.
The project was one Of more than
a score reported unfavorably by
the engineer board, and which
were all denied.
While officials of the Recon-
struction Finance Corporation ad-
hered to their policy of refusing
discussion of applications reject
ed, it was learned at the Corpora
ton that the engineer boards adj
verse Recommendation was based
on a memorandum from the legal
division advising that the Overseas
application was void for lack of a
state franchise to construct the
proposed bridges.
Opinion at the Reconstruction
Finance Corporation headquarters
was that the action in disapprov-
ing the application was taken to
clear the way for the filing of a
new loan request in about ten
days or two weeks by Rosenthal,
who is known to plan such a move.
Had the Overseas application
been left with "deleted" status
only, it might have retained suf-
ficient seniority to block Rosen-
thaPs new application, commenta-
tors point out.
Even should the Overseas Cor
poration file new application, as
under the Finance Corporations
rules would be permissible, it
would have no prior status over
"any other application" filed con-
temporaneously, officials of the
Finance Corporation admitted.
