Jap Protest
Due to Be
Overridden
Exclusion Policy to Be Con
sidered Today in Senate
Conference of Both
' Parties.
Bill Passes House 4 to 1
Washington, April 13.—The Semite
is face to face with the problem of
whether the Japanese exclusion pol
wjoy ]g to be written into law.
Organization republicans, who have
rallied around their chief to give bat
tle to the coalition of insurgents in
their own party and the democrats
on the revenue bureau Investigating
question, will go Into conference to
morrow, to undertake to reach an
agreement with respect to Japanese
exclusion.
Whatever the outcome of that con
ference, most leaders at the capito!
foresaw an affirmative vote on the
exclusion question, despite the vigor
ous and almost blunt protest from
the Japanese government transmitted
to the house and senate last week by
Secretary Hughes.
The Japanese- protest was without
effect upon the vote in the house,
which passed the immigration bill
with its exclusion provision by a
margin of more than four to one.
There was no reference in the debate
to the communication from Ambas
sador Hanihara and only brief and
casual discussion of the exclusion
question.

Chicago. April 13 —Her mind de
ranged over financial worries, Mrs.
Sven Carlson, 32, slashed the
throats of her four small children
nnd her own. The youngest child.

ed by the screams of one of the
older children, arrived at the Carlson
home. Mrs. Carlson and the two
older children have a chance to re
cover, physicians said.
The Carlsons are tenant farmers
near Wheaton, 111.
"It all goes hack to the crop
failure last year,” the husband de
clared.
“We had a nice little farm of out
own, did pretty well, and then every
thing went wrong. We couldn't even
get what it cost us to raise the crops
and so we sold our farm and rented
a piece of land.
"Mrs. Carlson brooded over our
troubles. The doctor* told^me she
was losing her mind and that I
should Jiave taken her away. Now
it is loo late.”
In none of the cases did Mrs. Carl
son sever the Jugular vein, phy
sicians declared, due to the trem

United States
Lays Down Firm
Policy on Debts
No Action by Debtor Nations
to Be Permitted Which Will
Make America’* Position
“Less Favorable.”
Washington, April 13.—Ths United
States has laid down ths definite
policy that It will permit of no action
by foreign debtor nations that would
make the position of this government
"less favorable” with respect to obli
gations due It.
Kstablishment of ths policy was
disclosed today with publication by
the American debt commission of
communications with the mission
from ths kingdom of the Serbs, Croats
and Slovens, which last Monday dis
cussed a funding arrangement on that
country's debt of $61,587,000. The
mission left without making any Head
way towards a settlement, but carried
with It a letter setting forth the
American views.
"Pending the refunding or satisfac
tion of the Indebtedness in ques
tion,” the debt commission’s letter
said, "the commission assumes the
United States may feel assured that
no action will be taken by your gov
ernment with respect to any of Its
Indebtedness heretofore nr hereafter
incurred which will result In placing
the United States in s less favorable
position as a creditor than that which
It now occupies.”
The paragraph waa regarded aa
making it clear that the United States
Intends tn retain the priority of ita
obligations where such priority exists
and that it will accept no second liana
that may reault from shifting finan
cial arrangements In the reorganiza
tion lit any foreign government's
debts.
It wan Indicated that a majority
of the debt commissioners feel further
time should bo given foreign powers
in which to initiate funding negotia
tions because of a hope that settle
ment of the reparations problem tnay
lie near. The .logo Slav delegation
said Ita government expected to offer
a funding settlement when the iep.nn
flop question la worked out. This
situation Was deemed llkaly to afreet
the other smaller debtors, so it ap
peared probable that the debt com
mission would mark time for a while.

The cabinet also regard* American

ber of commerce to study th* two re
port* of th* experts has reached the
unanimous conclusion that these re
ports offer a real prospect of provid
ing practical measures for removal
of obstacles which heretofore have
appeared insurmountable In the repa
rations settlement.
French official circles declare that
there Is no question for the present,
either of private Interviews between
Premiers Poincare. Theunl* and Mac
dnnald. or a meeting In the form of
an inter allied conference. It is con
sldered by the French foreign office
that any exchange of views on the

until the reparation commission had
reached n definitive decision concern
Ing the carrying out of the experts'
plan.

cepts in principle the experts’ report.
The government will advise the al
lies that Germany stands ready to co

report and will send representatives
to participate in the discussion.
Opinion is expressed at the foreign
office the conference of the premiers
of the German states with the na
tional government Monday will not
alter this decision of the cabinet
which is in no small measure due to
the attitude taken by Bbert behind
the scenes.
Six Points liaised.
In German banking, industrial end
government circles six main points
have been raised which it Is declared
call for clarification. They are;
1. The total sum which the allies
expect Germany shall pay eventually
as reparations.
2. The military occupation or con
trol of the Ruhr and whether the mil
itary can again Intervene In Ger
many's economic sovereignty.
8. Demarcation between foreign fi
nancial control and German sover
eignty in Germany.
4. The grave doubts over the mat
ter of giving the railways over to for
eign control because of the steadily
growing hostility of public opinion.
Annuities High, Claim.
I. Annuities after ths first year as
mentioned in tbs Dawea report are
considered top high.
«. The Dawea report pre suppose*
that Germany's prosperity will con
tinually Increase after the so-called
moratorium and Germans ask what if
the contrary should be true.

his political career. In the

against the “subversion” of
the senate in his message to

Pinchot Admits He
Recommended Heney
to Senator Couzens
Harrisburg. Pa., April 1J.—Gov
ernor Pinchot fn a statement to
night admitted he recommended to
Pnlted States Senator Couzens of
Michigan the name of Francis J.
Heney of San Francisco as special
counsel to the senate committee
investigating the internal revenue
bureau, as Senator Watson, re
publican, Indiana, asserted on the
floor of the senate yesterday.
After the investigation started.
Governor Pinchot said, he got In
touch with Senator Couzens "on
the question of prohibition en
forcement and on that alone," and
that he suggested Mr. Heney a
a man whom the senator's com
mittee 'Would be fortunate to se
cure as counsel '
At the same time, the governor
took issue with Senator Watson's
reference to prohibition enforce
ment in his address yesterday, de
claring “every seif respecting law
abiding American must resent tbe
spectacle of a senator of the
Cnited States publicly confessing
that be 'does not eiTwct the con
■titutlon to be obeyed."
l m
that body on Friday, it may
be that he will have to carry
the load alone.
Republics senators have
pledged support. In a caucus
to be held tomorrow^jt may
be that plans will be perfect
ed for aiding him in his strug
gle. How far can these plans
succeed? This is the question
that interests official Wash
ington, in fact the entire na
tion.
It is certain th* democrat* will
stand behind Senator Walsh, who has
denounced the president's message s*
•arrogant." Where will tha "insurg
ents” lino up? In the coming contest
m the senate will they vote with th*
republicans to support the president,
or with the democrats against him?
Coolidge May Re Isolated.
Should they vote with th# demo
crats—and thus give the seal of ap
proval to the continuation of that
"government by investigation," which
"la no government." in th# words of
Secretary Mellon, th# president will
be practically Isolated and compelled
to carry on the fight unaided, at least
In an official sense.
One thing seems certain, th# presi
dent must follow through. Th#
Rooseveltian big stick which he has
grasped cannot safely be laid aside.
It may be that Coolidge, endorsed by
the republican voters, a# shown in
the primaries, has determined to make
use of the same sort of tactios that
won him fame In his handling of the
Boston police strike.
Indicated by Opening Gat
Ills opening gun. fired In hi* sharp
message to the senate on Friday, in
which he referred to the oourse of
the Investigations aa leading to "law
lessness,’' would seem to indicate such
a course.
No doubt he expected the sort of
retort that has com# from Senators
(Tara te Pag* TVs. Cetasaa Peer.)
