COMMAND CHANGE
Precedent Broken by Their Pres

Takes Charge.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
SAN PEDRO, Calf, June 10
Strict routine and stern airs wilted
under romantic touch today as the
United States Navy saluted a new COM
mander in chief, Admiral David Foote
Sellers.
In scene that broke all precedent as
far as this port knew, Admiral Sellers
was escorted to his new command, re-
linquished by Admiral Richard H.
Leigh, while in row of 10 admirals
standing at attention nearby, three
women, the wives of three officers,
watched the impressive ceremonies.
And as they watched the blue-starred
flag of Admiral Leigh f1utter down
from the main truck of the u S. S.
Pennsylvania, they saw tears dim the
eyes of that veteran of nearly so years
in the Navy.
Never in the history of a change of
command at this port had women been
allowed to witness the coming of a new
commander in chief and the retiring
of another The three women were the
wives of Admirals Sellers, Leigh and
c. P. Snyder.
AS the ceremonies ended, Admiral
Sellers walked quickly to the side of
his wife and bestowed resounding kiss
on her lips.
Seventeen-gun salutes were fired for
both Admiral Leigh and the new COM
mander in chief

Fluctuations of Dollar, Pound
and Franc Discussed at
London.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press
LONDON, June I0.-Negotiations
among central bank officials of the
United States. Great Britain and France
on the stabilization of the dollar, the
pound and the franc were under way
here tonight as statesmen and financial
experts of many nations prepared for
the lifting of the curtain Monday on
the World Economic Conference.
1t was definitely learned that the
three-cornered currency discussions
were in progress when Clement Moray,
governor of the Bank of France, and
Charles FARMER. vice governor, arrived
and joined George L. Harrison, governor
of the Federal Reserve Bank of New
York, and Montagu Norman, governor
of the Bank of England, in private talks.
Mr.. Harrison and Jay Crane of the
New York Bank, had a conference with
Mr.. Norman yesterday Immediately on
their arrival here.
Fund Would Be Established.
While no official word was forthcom-
ing as TO the character of the three
party conversations it was understood
that means of de facto sterilization
were discussed. Such move would be
aimed to prevent wide fluctuations in
the currencies of the great powers, an
objective which experts regard as es-
sential to the success of the coming in
ternational meetings here.
This stabilization presumably would
be accomplished by the establishment of
fund to buy and sell currencies of the
United States, France and Great Brit
ain.
At present there is no disposition to
peg the three moneys at a fixed level
but rather to keep them within certain
general bounds. Other currencieS may
be brought into the conversations later.
Meanwhile plans for the opening OF
the conference went forward in the
headquarters Offices of all the national
groups whose representatives have al
ready arrived at the British capital.

feverishly busy with preparations, ex-
planned that the world was verging on
a crucial test of whether it was able
to organize itself on a basis of mutual
cooperation or whether it must break
up into isolated economic islands.
American quarters made it clear that
the United States was prepared to go
as far as any nation toward mutually
beneficial co operation. But they
warned that any effort to obtain special
advantages would be stoutly resisted

The slash in the rate will be
coupled with reductions in indi-

ue of local real estate holdings by
about $8O,0OO,OOO Taken together,
the real estate rate and assess

Federal Share Reduced.
The 20-cent cut in the tax rate was
recommended by Maj. Daniel j. Dono-
van, District auditor, who submitted to
the city heads comprehensive analy-
sis of the present financial outlook for
the District, citing appropriations and
revenues and pointing out that the Fed
eral share of District costs had been re-
duced by 50 800,000 since the 1882 ap-
preparation.
Both DR.. Reichelderfer and Auditor
Donovan emphasized that Congress spe-
cifically had forbidden the Commits
sioners to reduce the tax rate in the
fiscal years between 1880 and 1888, in
elusive. This restriction was elimi-
mated from the fund bill just passed.
Maj. Donovan estimated that there
would be surplus in general revenues
