couery program. They may be right
about that.
At least they have convinced four
conservative administration officials
close to Mr. Roosevelt that they are
right
These four are now supposed to be
exerting pressure on the President to
call off his dogs.

certain member of the Senate 1nveSti-
eating Committee has heard about the
matter He knows the names Of the
parties involved. He has the constitu-
tional immunity necessary for calling
names out in public and is threatening
to do so.
One thing deters him. Chairman
Fletcher OF the Investigating Com
mittee has summoned meeting tor
October g. This meeting is supposed
to determine the policy OF the COM
mittee as to the future OF the inquiry.
If the committee decides to pursue
the inquiry, nothing will be said. II

Debt Talks Futile.

War debts are no longer regarded as
an important subject either here or
abroad The inner attitude Is that 1t
is futile to talk about them now.
The coming talks with the British
representative will be just going through
the motions OF diplomatic negotiations,
with pessimism deep on both sides.
Other nations will hang back to see
what the British do.
This administration will drop the
matter rather than take the to is
per cent payments which the British
are planning to offer.
