Leaders Urge
G
Extra Session
Immediately
Lodge and Mondell auk Presi
dent to Call Congress at
Earliest Possible
Date.
Chicago Tribuae-Omaha Baa Laawd Wlra.
Washington, March 6. Senator
Lodge, republican leader of the sen
ate and Representative Mondell, ma
jority leader of the house, urged
President Harding to call both
branches of congress into extraordi
nary session at the earliest possible
date.
They told the president they real
ized they were incurring the risk of
becoming the most unpopular mgn
in congress, but they thought the
new administration's legislative pro
gram, with the question of tariff
and taxation revision outstanding,
should receive attention with a 'min
imum of delay.
They pointed out that the impor
tant measures which perished in the
legislative jam or by presidential veto
yesterday would demand considera
tion as soon as the new congress as
sembles. Among these measures are
the army and navy appropriation
bills, determining the dcJcnsc policy
for the next year, and the Billing
ham immigration bill. All those
measures are likely to lead to con
siderable debate and may consume
the time of congress for several
weeks before it can gt down' to
business on the legislative program
that the new president is expected
to recommend.
Members of the military affairs
committees believes that the army
bill will be passed in substantially
e form m which it was vetoed by
Mr. Wilson, although there is a
chance that the size ot the army may
may be raised above the 156,662 limit
fixed by the bill. The navy bill still
lias some stormy going ahead of it
because of the fact -that the senate
naval affairs committee wants to
wake it $1PO,000.000 bigger than the
house bill. President Harding has
ajready indicated hisntention of in
sisting on a strong naval policy and
his influerice is expected to be
thrown on the senate side.
Senator Lodge delivered to Prei
dcut Harding, a message from the
senate -demands pleading for delay
in calling the extra 'session in order
that they1 might go home and rest
Some pressure is being brought to
bear on Mr. Harding for delaying
the ejtra session until April 18, but"
the general opinion still prevails that
the date will be about "April 4. The
president probably will make a de
cision early next week, after he con
fers again with Mr. Lodge and Mr.
Mondell.

Paris, March 6. French official
circles, aitej- studying President
Harding's inaugural address, regard
it as justifying French opinion that
the United States would always

and justice, and 'declare no cause
for disappointment or discourage
ment is to be found in the mesaget
While satisfaction was expressed
with Air. Harding's declarations, re

to indicate his attitude toward the
Versailles treaty and other prob

Official professed to find support
of their opinion that the United
States would be brought into a
league, but said they preferred not
to dhscuss the present covenant, al
though asserting a willingness to
have it amply amended so it could
be understood that the United States
would not be called on to partici
pate in problems not concerning it.
Frankness and sincerity are found
by afternoon newspapers today jn tin
address, although there is a sense
of disillusionment in their comment.
Particular satisfaction -is tound in
the fact that Germany, as they view
it. will find no comfort in the speech.
The Temps emphasizes the optimism
it finds An the message, noting that
"this trait is thoroughly American."
It praises the passages, declaring foi
nonentaglemeut. as supplying "a re
markable model of patriotism," Vnd
notes that the president "does not
fear to consider the possibility ol
war."
Recognizing the significence of tht
declarations regarding foreign af
fairs, it adds:
"But- there is in the message, fc
phrase, the importance of which sur-.
passes all others. 'There was no
American failure to resist the at
tempted reversion of civilisation,
there will be no failure today or to
morrow.' "

Little Hope of
Agreement o-n
Reparations
Even Most Optimistic of Ger
man Delegation doNot
Believe Allies Will Ac
cept Proposals.
By The AuMicluted l'l-rnn.
London, March 6. Unless new
instructions are received from Ber
lin, Dr. Simons, German foreign
secretary, on Monday will r,ead a
statement designed to refute the
argument made by Premier Lloyd
George before the conference Thurs
day. This statement probably will
be followed by counter proposals,
which even the most optimistic of
the German delegation do not be- f-
lieve the allies wjII accept.
In such event, the reparations con
ference will break up. 'the German
delegates will return home and the
penalties authorized by Mr. Lloyd
George enforced.
Dr. Simons and his colleagues, in
collaboration wilh the Berlin cabi
net, have spent most of the time
since delivery of the ultimatum in
drawing up a- reply. He will pre
sent figures in an endeavor to prove
Mr. Lloyd George's statement re
specting German taxation was inac
curate, and" will ask the allies to sug
gest a means whereby Germany can
meet their economic demands. He
will.1 point out that while the Ger
man income tax is small. Gemian
incomes are proportionately small.
May Not Listen.
The amount the Germans assert
has been paid on account of rep
arations will be restated.
It is a question, however, whether
the conference will listen to such
arguments. The French premier,
M. Briand. is credited wth the as
sertion that all the Germans have
been summoned for Monday is to
accept or reject the terms.
The Germans, through Dr. Sthau-
er,
German ambassador at London,
ana Lord U Abernon, isntish am
bassador to Germany, have made
efforts to get in touch with the
allies for private conversations with
some success. There was a confer
ence today between Premiers Lloyd
George and Briand and Dr. Simons.
A report emulating- from Greek
circles that the allies have with-
! drawn their offer of an inquiry by
a special commission into conditions
in Smyrna and Thrace, is denied, j
Confidence in Simons. , j
Fehrcnbach informed the reichstag
today that the cabinet did not pro
pose to interfere with Dr. Simons,
the German foreign secretary, and
his fellow delegates to the London
reparations conference. He de
clared the cabinet was confident that
the foreign secretary would make
every effort to negotiate within the
limits set.
"In accordance with the directions
approved by the reichstag." the cham
cellor said. "Dr. Simons was au
thorized to withhold his signature
from any obligations which the Ger
man people would be unable to ful
fill. These obligations will not be
changed."
He declared he was convinced that
the German people would acknowl
edge the signature of their agent if
it covered an obligation which after
a most careful investigation, proved
it did not go beyond the limit of
possible achievement, but that the
German people would be equally 1
firm in supporting their envoys if
they refused to sign va document
which, exacted fulfillment of an im
possible demand. '

Washington,, March 6. Herbert

belief that the department promises
"as much or even more for the
American people, than any other."
Mr. Hoover addressed briefly, the
ring composed of .bureau chiefs and

The new secretary highly praised
the work of the various bureaus and
indicated that he expected to make
no radical change in the personnel.
Assistant Secretary of Commerce
Edwin K Sweet, who tendered his
resignation, was asked by Mr.
Hoover to remain temporarily until
a new assistant was selected. An-
I other tendering his resignation to
i be accepted whenever a successor
is appointed, was Sam I.. Rogers,
chief of the census bureau. While
the appoinment as chief of thc cen
sus bureau is regarded as one of
a political nature, many of the bu
reaus in the department, such as
the bureau of standards, are of a
scientific nature and Mr. Hoover
indicated that np changes in them
was contemplated.
"This is not a political depart
