Dublin Bombine Reviv BORAH PLAN iS OPPOSED BY HARDING President Calls on Senate to Defeat! Amendment to Naval Bill Advising Another World Conference WASHINGTON, Dec. 28.—President Harding asked the senate today not to adopt Senator Borah’s proposal for a new international economic conference, saying in a eres er to Re- publican Leader Lodge that formal congressional action on the subject now would embarrass him in negotiations he al- ready is conducting looking to such a conference. ‘The presi(ent's letter was sent to Senator Lodge for presentation dur- ing the senate's second day of debate on the Borat: proposal, which is m- bodied in an amendment to the naval appropriation bill. The president acted directly to block senate action after he had con- multed with Secretary Hughes and after Senator Lodge had visited the White House and had reported on the progress made in the fight al- resay being waged against the Borah amendment by administration leaders in the senate, Just what the steps already taken or in contemplation by the adminis- tration may be, however, the presi- dent did not reveal. He said mem- bers of congress could learn if they inquired in the proper. way, but that state department communications on s0 delicate a subject obviously could not be “butletined from day to day.” “If congress really wants to help,” he added, it might well ‘free the hands,” of the debt fund’ng commis- sion, which under thé act crentitng it, cannot alter thé !n¢erest terms or date of payment of the war debts. Senator Lodge presented the pres! dent’s letter immediately after the senate convened and the reading of it by a clerk which was listened to at- tentively by senators on both sides of the chamber. Senator Borah noted on a pad of paper the high spots of the communt- cation and smiled broadly at the presidert’s declaration that the pro- pore’ amendment would in effect give th oression that the executive brane. of the government was not “fully alive," to the present world situation, and that congress could factitate the work of the debt com- mission “by freeing the hands of that body.” Senator McNary, republican, Ore- gon, gained the fioor after the letter had been read and began an address in behalf of the Borah proposal, which he championed as a measure likely to ald the American farmer by restoring Europe and increasing Euro- pean purchases of American agricul tural products. An active member of the senate farm bloc, Senator McNary declared his opposition to an American policy of “isolation” although «he said he knew his views would rouse what he termed the “international statesmen bloc of the senate.’ “T shall never know,” said Senator McNary, “whether it was the stub- bornness of our distingu'shed presi- dent, Woodrow Wilson, the perversity of the able senator from Massachu- setts, Mr. Lodge, or the eloquence of the irreconcilables that prevented the ratification of the Versailles treaty, yet I shall always think, as a mild reservationist, that much of the un- rest and hatred existing among the nations at this time would not have occurred if this treaty containing the covenant of the league of nations, with the Lodge reservations, had been ratified.” Senator, McNary said the Borah amendment would not obligate Amer- ica to any aggressive, nor defensive military action, nor precipitate the nation into any political maelstrom. It would be a step, he sald, to re- establishment of European trade. He ruggested that German reparations should be reduced*and that increased trade with Europe was needed, more by American farmers than the pend- ing farm credits legislation. Senator Lodge later told the senate that he could not state ‘‘expiicitly” the nature of the administration ne- gotiations for a conference, but was authorized to say they did not include cancellation of the ailied debt. He said President Harding told him the administration was opposed to can- collation but incline@ to favor longer MOLLIE FULLER BASK ON STAGE NEW YORK, 28.—Mollie Fuller came back to the stage last night.

Senator Lodge said he favored & longer perioc: of amortization than the 26 years now provided by statute, but repeated that the was vigorously opposed to clincellation. “The president says that the state department has contended that the reparations questions and the foreign debt should be considered separately but the fore'gn governments contend otherwise,” Senator Borah observed, and “the president seeks to ask au- (Continued on Page Sevon) cA AKE MILLION- ed, Black Fut SPER, WYO., THURSDAY, v ELEMBEK Zs, 1922 Discouraging Picture of Peace Hopes in| Ireland Painted by Correspondent of Great British Journal DUBLIN, Dec. 28.—(By The Associated Press.)—The} DOLLAR Che Casper Daily Tribune FINAL | DITION | iE [Bamiee Retin c3) | ure Is Seen DEAD MEN’S TALES” ae first bomb attack in Dublin for some time took place in Aun-| gier street today when a missile was thrown at a military car} in which several officers were riding. hind the car and the officers, none of whom was injured, fired | at a man standing on a nearby street corner, shooting him through the mouth.
