I should be hopeful as regards the value of her Intervention, and If intervention does not tuke place or cannot through the league, or If It U Impossible to Invoke the league at this stage, do not let It be thought that I for a moment deprecate the Idea of International action to solve the prob-lem. I think It only can be solved by International action sooner or later." That Secretary Hughes' plan for u commission of experts to report on reparations Is not uead. was shown by the action of the two wings of the Liberal party In parliament. They agreed on an amendment' to the ad-dress from the throne reading In part: "And humbly represent to your majesty that Inasmuch as the future peace of Europe cannot be safeguard-ed nr the recovery of reparations by the operations of the French and i'cl-gla- n governments In the Uuhr, It Is urgently necessary to seek effective securities against aggression by In-ternational guarantees under the League of Ts'ntlons and to Invite the council of the league without delay to nppolnt a commission of experts to report upon the capacity of Ger-many to pay reparations and upon the best method of elfectlng such pay-ments, and that In view of the recent Indications of willingness on the part of the government of the United States of America to participate In a confer-ence to this end, the Drltlsh repre-sentative on the council of the leag.ie sltould be Instructed to urge that an congress and not the 1'resident shall approve of other funding arrung-meiit- s. DETERMINATION of a majority ot $:(1.000,UK ex-pended on river and harbor Improve-ments may possibly lead to the call-lu- g of an extra session of congress after March 4. in order that the uiiny appropriation bill may be passed. President Harding, uccurding to ver-acious reports, thought he had dis-covered a wuy to circumvent the pork barrel brigade and planned to Instruct the Department of War to spend no more than the $'.'7,000,000 which the budget bureau recommeuded, and to turn the balance buck to the treas-ury. This made the pork senators ex-ceedingly ungry und they let It be known that they would organize a filibuster and prevent the puasage of the army bill unless they received sat-isfactory assurances that the eutire $;U,000,UX) would be expended. Sena-tor Caraway of Arkansas was the recognized bead of the crowd making this threat, lie asserted In the sen-ate that the 'resident vvns making a hi ufT in order to win votes for the Drltlsh debt settlement aud the ship subsidy measure, Secretury of War Weeks said that President Harding had given no di-rections regarding the expenditure of money appropriated for rivers und harbors. "That would not be necessnrs." said TN TIIK face of Increasing opposition from the (Jcrtnans, the French nre j 1 displaying a corresponding Increasing I determination to have their wuy in the , Kuhr. Moreover, they biRt week let Great Itrltaln know that they wished " her either to to a certain extent or get out of her way. Min!s-- ; ter of Public Works e Trocquer sud General I'ayot, In charge of commun-ications In the Ithlneland, went to lm-do- n to ask that the Drltish turn over to the French a strip of the occupied ter-ritory In order to cotitol the direct mil route for coal from the Uuhr. The wus rather embarrassing to the F.rltlsh government, which cannot t rauke up Its mind whether or not t withdraw Its troops entirely fnm the Ithlne. It Is believed such withdrawal I I would he ordered at ouce were It not for the fear thnt the Immediate result would be the settlno. up of a buffer I J etafe there with the support of the ! French. General (iodlev, enmmand- - ' j Ing the Drltlsh at Colgate, favors re-- I mnlnlng there as long as possible for f j this reason only. It Is said that In ; 1 a recent report to Pown'tig street J j Codify pointed out the Impossible mlll- - : ' tnry position of the Drltlsh on the . Ilhlne through Mr. Donnr Law's re- - ptidlatlon of the French policy on warned the cabinet that the : ' r.rltlsh forces were liable to be mixed ' v. In the French nnd German clashes, If thpy became widespread, nnd drew at- - ' J tentlon to the fact that the French , I were llkrly at any time to violate the j Drltlsh r.one by transporting poMus " J across It. MIMSTHU DONAH LAW PKIMU Lord Curzou, In the pallia-- i inent debutes on the king's speech. both expressed disapproval if the French policy. Mr. Donar Law said the Diltlsh troops might have to be recalled ut any hour and that this meant the almost ceitaln rupture of the entente. He told of the London nnd Paris conferences, saying that k from the first be suw It would be Im possible to Hgrce with Fiance, be-ta use the French themselves hud two alms which were Incompatible. They wanted money, but they feared to al-low Germany to become strong enough to pay. They were determined from tho first t. scire the Kuhr. although they were going to g,'t nothing out of It, but because French public opinion would be satisfied with nothing les. On the question of reparations the yrlme minister said the French feared ! t tlx any sum which the Germans 1 would be able to pn.v off In " reasoti- - Me time, fear'ng they would then be aKo to prepare for a war of revenge. Marquis Curon, addressing the certain that the lcrd, was equally I rem-l- i policy Is unsound, and ih'Sed Ills thos: "America, strong us her views are Invitation be extended to the American government to appoint experts to serve upon the commission." OCCUPATION of more Germnn French, the prohi-bition of shlmients of manufactured products from the Kuhr to other parts of Germany, arrests of many olllclals for defiance of French orders, and de-cisive steps toward the oiterntion of trains by French crews marked the week lu the occupied region. First Iteckllngt'suae snd tlien Gelsenklr-- i ben declared complete strikes against the French, and the latter town wus lined one hundred ml IIkm marks for violation of military orders und be-cause of a clash In which two French soldiers were wounded. Itefusjil to pay the fine resulted In the arrest of the leading bankers of the place. The boycott of the French all over the Kuhr grew more effective daily, nnd the retaliatory measures Increased In severity. The French ordered all relch and state ofllclals to stay out of the Kuhr because the visits of some had resulted In stirring up more trouble. The I'.erlln government de-cided to test this order by sending two cabinet members Into the terri-tory. The outcome is not known at this writing. One of the latest of General orders was that the 10 0O0 German security po'lee In the occupied region should be disarmed. InslMs Unit her decision TUKKF.Y the ports of Smyrna and ismld to allied warships Is irrevoc-able und that the vessels there must leave at once, nnd the harbors are being thickly sown with mines. I'.ut up to date the warships have not de-parted, nor have they been II red on. Constantinople Is still optimistic, be-lieving an agreement will be reached soon, though each side Is waiting for the other to take the Initiative for renewal of the peace negotiations. Turkey baa culled out more classes and It Is said the authorities at Adrian-opl- e have ordered all the old men. women and children lo vacate the city as a precautionary measure. Mustapha Kemal nnd Ismet Pasha presumably Hre In Angora by this time, and It Is believed they would exert a pacifying Influence on the National assembly and that the danger of hostilities was growing more remote. The Drltlsh government has ugreed to make the concessions which the French delegate offered I" Ismet after Lord Curon left Lausanne, and the allies are will-In- ; - yield on certain other points, so the signing of a peace treaty may not be very long deferred.

"I saved a large amount of money last year on the war department appropriation but I had no specific order from he President to do so. The fact that the war depart-ment engineers told congress, as re-quired by law, that they could ex-pend $.'iG,0OO.0tO this year on river and harbor Improvements, Is In do sense a recommendation that thl.i amount should be expended." ON MOTION of Senator Walsh of Massachusetts the senate adopted a resolution citing churges of waste, extravagance and mismanagement made against the veterans' bureau and directing the special committee which Investigated the treatment of disabled men In 1!I'J1 to report m the advisability of Instituting a new In-quiry Into the nffiilrs f the bureau.
