agreed, adding his own view thai
was one of the accomplishments Of
the last Congress.
He said the Labor Department
could not be torn up permanently
any more than any other depart
ment.
Congress made appropriations cuts
which Labor Department ofiicials
have declared will mean a cut OF
one third to one half in the depart
ment's payroll.
As result of these cuts, officials
say, the Division OF Labor Standards
will be abolished and operations OF
other divisions reduced. The Labor
Standards Division has been making
studies dealing with safety and other
industrial matters.
G. o. p. Platform Cited.
Also, the Taft-Hartley labor law
took the Cancellation Service (Which,
seeks to settle strikes and labor dis
putes) from the Labor Department
and made it an independent agency
The President was asked If the
last Republican platform did not
promise a concentration OF all the
various activities dealing with labor
under one department.
The President said it did and that
he could recite chapter and verse.
He replied that the Republican
record speaks for itself when a re-
porter asked If Congress action did
not repeal this platform.

State Board Approves
u. ofharyIand Budget
Including Byrd Raise
BY the Assoeiofed Press

BALTIMORE, Aug. 1.-THE State
Board of Public Works approved
yesterday the working budget for
the University Of Maryland for the
1913 fiscal year, which included q
$3.50 raise for DIR. H. c. Byrd
president, setting his salary at $20,-
600 annually.
! The board, however, failed to
bring up the university's proposed
s2.350,000 building program, which
was passed over in a meeting at
Annapolis last week. At that time
1t was referred to Attorney Gen.
eral Hall Hammond for study of
carry-over provisions on Federal CT
funds. Included in this was a pro-
posed 32,000-seat football stadium
The budget breakdown places an
nual salaries at the university at
$2,000,111-an increase of $369. .2O4
over the previous year. Operating
expenses were set at $1,5O9,76l.
The program included an $500 900
stadium, a 100000 physical ed
ucation building, a $350,000 chapel,
and 100000 swimming pool. DR..
Byrd had said the program would
not cost the State one cent.
He had asked that the stadium
work be started so that it could be
used in the fall of 1948 to meet
contracts with Vanderbilt and other
large schools.

specifically to consider possible re-
visions in the year-old So, ,750, ,0O0, ,00t
loan agreement in order to prevent
Britain's dollar reservoir from rum
ming dry.
But American officials privately
concede the probability that the
British delegation will try to widen
the scope of the conference to in
clude a cut In Britain's commit
ments in Germany, at least.
Congress Reaction Uncertain.
A pair of big question marks hang
over the coming deliberations.
The first concerns the reaction OF
Congress to plugging Europe's leak
ing economic dikes with more dol
lars, the second just what plan will
emerge from the current Paris con-
ference on Secretary of State Mar
shall's plan for mutual self help
program.
The answer to the first-barring a
special session call-must await the
return of the Nations lawmakers In
January.
The answer to the second remains
an international enigma dependent
upon number of other factors: A
proof of willingness among the Wes-
tern powers to cooperate econom-
ically, the balancing of national
needs against winters demands and
determination Of Germany's in.
dustrial place in the continenta.

Two Conferences Are Factor.

the British loan delegation Is re-
ported to be eager to get . quick
commitment on the scope Of any
new American economy stability
program abroad.
Secretary of the Treasury Syndel
has emphasized that the conference
opening here Monday will be limited
so far as this country is concerned
to a discussion of loan term modi-
fications.
Two Features Stressed.
This would deal with two features
in particular:
First, provision which requires
Britain to exchange dollars fol-
pounds in many current trade trans
actions, and, second, a clause pre-
venting Britain from trimming her
American trade in order to deal with
the dominions on pound sterling
rather than a dollar, basis.
The first sign of British anxiety
to get an overall showdown came
earlier this week when the British
QcicSdtlUll W tHc NuIu COdl tdIkS
succeeded in widening them to in
clude such things as food, housing
and possible American financing fol-
new equipment.
United States officials anticipate
a similar request next week to
broaden the loan discussions to in
clude possible American aid to cut
down commitments abroad and
speed production at home.
One potential controversy, how
ever, appeared eliminated.
Undersecretary of State Robert
Lovett told a news conference
yesterday there has been no re-
quest for movement of American
troops now stationed in Europe to
Greece.
This would indicate an agreement
on the part Of Britain to keep the
Tommies now stationed in Greece
on duty there. 1t would not, at the
same time, rule out the possibility
Of Britain's seeking a sharp cut in
her occupation forces in Germany

"It is anticipated that further dis
cussions will be held in Washington
in regard to the figure to be &C.
cepted as the total adverse balance. ;
Mr.. Chevrier said. He added that
Canadian railways, meanwhile, were
continuing to make every effort to
return coal cars to the United
States"
Further Discussions Seen.
Mr.. Chevrier did not refer directly
to a statement in Montreal Tues
day by r. c. Vaughan, president OF
the Canadian National, who said he
hoped the United States action
would not result in "our inability to
provide all the cars needed for
paper loading in the United States.
Canadian newspapers interpreted
Mr.. Vaughan's statement as a veiled
threat at a retaliatory embargo by
Canada on newsprint shipments.
Mr.. Chevrier said the balance Of
box cars, the type used for shipment
of newsprint, has been heavily
against Canada for a long time.
He added that boxcars are "of grea
