LI READY TO STEP OUT Gens. Wu Pel Fu and Tsao Kun Are Mentioned for President. By the Associated Press. PEKING, August 1.—Representatives trom various provifices were here today in an effort to convene an all-China parliament, the first since 1917. Whether a sufficient number would be on hand for a quorum remained to be seen with the formal convocation of the assembly. Those who had arrived today, how- ever, declared they would meet and con- tinue in session until they were able to function constitutionally. The president of the senate and the speaker of the house of representatives are on record as determined to restore parliamentary government in China. H Li Yuang Hung, recently restored to | the presidency of the central republic, | in Peking, the position from which he was driven by the Tuchuns in 1917, de- scribed the situation as the gravest since the republic was established. Among the proposals which he is urging upon parliament are the sharp reduc- tion of the standing armies, now ap- proximating 3,500,000 and the substitu- tion of a national army for defense | alone; the formation of a federation of | provinces similar to the United States, with a_centralized federal government; reorganization of finances. Li took the presidency provisionally and has offered to resign if parliament | expresses preference for another leader. | In the event he retires Gen. Wu Pej Fu, the outstanding military figure of the | north, and Gen. Tsao' Kun, one of Wu's chief 'supporters, have been mentioned { as possible successors.

European interests are recognizing the importance of Venezuela as a and the number of ofl concessions | and locations In that country is in-| creasing_rapidly, C. E. McGuire, sec- | retary of the United States section of the Inter-American High Commis- sion, declared today. H From January, 1922, up to May, he | ted, 618.000 barrels of petroleum | re exported from the Maracaibo region, the chiet producing field of the republic. British interests, he added, are taking advantage of (h!l policy of the Venezuelan government to encourage the development of bokh the petroleum and coal re-! sources of the country. “A good deall of attention” he said, “has been drawn lately to the renewed interest on the part of European capitalists and industrial leaders in the petro- leum resources of Venesuela. Sev- eral new Britlsh companies are known to be under way for ex- ploitation of these resources.” ! The only company now engaged in the exploitation of petroleum in interests.
