WORKING AGAINST SUCCESS

LONDON, June 2b. American Secretary of State Hull, last Satur- day night, repeated that the sug- gestions that the American do- mestic program for economic re- covery was irreconciliable with in ternational cooperation may be fomented by forces interested in the failure of the World Economic Conference. He called attention to references regarding the Am erican domestic recovery plan and asserted they may rise from sources which are desirious of confusion at the conference "and of seeking to prevent realization of the hopes that are the purpose and objective of this gathering. There is no basis, no logic, in the thought that the American problem here and that at home are incompatible as suggested, since the American re- fusal to participate in the de facto currency stabilization.'
 United States Senator Couzens, of Michigan, one of the United States delegates, said Sunday there is a conflict between the United States and international domestic programs and if my analysis IS correct we cannot carry through both programs and sooner or later, in the conference, we will have to decide which program we are going to follow"

 Point to Policies

LONDON, June 26.-The prob lens raised by what the Europeans call the American monetary man. euvers, to increase commodity prices, has been trust back on the World Economic Conference as the barley entered the third week.
 The truce on stabilization, reach ed last week by the nations of the gold bloc and the Americans, ap- peared to be near the end with developments over the weekend of new opposition to the Washington policies.
 The fear is that if the United States dollar loses much more value in the world markets, some or all of these gold bloc nations will be forced to abandon the gold standard.
 It is believed in some quarters there is a determination to block all American moves to induce the conference to embark on artificial means of raising prices.

BALL BOND USE.
IS OUTLINED

Arlington county officials are
studying postponed public works
which will be carried forward as
soon as the settlement with the
bonding company for E. Wade
Ball, former treasurer, is received.
The surety company has offered
compromise of $350,000.
All roads of the county will be
paved and many of those now
needing repairs will be fixed. It
is hoped as result of carrying
out the abandoned road program
to fix the highways so that only
a small amount of taxes will have
to be diverted for their care.
Bond funds, depleted since dis
covery of shortages in the former
treasurer's accounts, will be re-
plenished, officials say. The school
department also intends to use
a portion of their share for neces-
sary improvements, while the bal
ance will be split between a sink
ing fund and debt service.
