By the Associated Press LONDON, August 16.—American Ambassador Kellogg, speaking at the international conference this even just before the rman and all delegate initialed the agreemen for the cxecution of the Dawes plan, said, addressing Premier MacDonald: Mr. President, 1 cannot too highly compliment the ‘delegates of all na- tions represented at this great inter- | national conference upon their firm- ness. ability and broad-minded stat manship, which has brouzht ference to a successful consumma- tion. 1t was evident from the begin- ning that you came here with the firm determination to scttle the dificult problems, which in times of peace, have confronted the leading nations of Burope—1 might say of the world Foundation of Pe: believe o it was evident to states- men of all the world that a settle ment of the reparations, adjustment of national finances and the rehabili tation of Germany lay at the founda- tion of the future prosperity of I rope. A permanent settlement o the basis of fairness and justice to all nations engaged in the war was the only sure guaraniec of peace. It was with this view that the repara- tions commission, representing the 2llied countrics, appointed the Dawes comimitier to suggest a plan for such settlement “As T Lave said before, they were all able, high-minded and patriotic men, with wide public experience and knowledge of financial and economic conditions. 1 believe more than four weeks of careful study and inter- course between the delegates has demonstrated that the Dawes veport was the greatest piece of construc- tive work of modern times, and I wish, on behalf of my country, to ex- tend to Gen. Dawes and his associ- ates my sincere congratulations. America's Support. “From the very beginning. when an expert committee wax proposed, to the consummation of your work, this plan has had the hearty and al support of the President of the United States and the American peo- ple. Complicated and difficult as the problems were, that report has stood fhe test of the most careful scrutiny and has been the basis of this settle- ment, for it was founded on sound cconomic, social, and I might add, political principles, which have been evolved by the experience of the ages “I do not for a moment minimize the difficulties which have confronted this conference and, but for vour ability, your patience and your faith in the people of your various coun- tries, it could not have. succeeded Disagreemen there have been, growing out of difficult condition: political and economic in different countries, but with the determination to succeed, a confidence which never wavered, and the sincere desire of accommodation of differences, you have brought this conference to a su ul issue. Dawning of New Day. I may be too much of an optimist, hut 1 believe this settlement is the dawning of a new day, the hope of millions of people, the revival of industry and prosperity so necessary to the happiness and progress of mankind. Animosities engendered the war cannot continue. Nations, as individuals, must live in amity, and this conference is the beginning of the mony which presages the brighter future “I shall not take the time of this conference to review its work; it speaks for itself. Tts daily proceed- ngs have been followed with intense interest by thousands of people—in no place more than in my country. “It ix the first great step in the restoration of confidence in our civili- zation. It puts in force a sound economic plan for reuniting German industrial life, giving the German people hope for the future and an opportunity to discharge the obliga- tions growing out of the war. The influence of this settlement will be far-reaching. It will not be confined to the allies and Germany, but will be spread to many other nations, especially those border states g0 intimately connected with the great nations of Europe. There must be friendly intercourse, exchange of products and & revival of industry if Europe is to be prosperous and her people happy. Peace Lies in Arbitration. “There is one feature of this set- tlement which [ wish to emphasize, and that is the recognition and fur: therance of the principles of arbitra- tion for settlement of international disputes. In my opinion the great hope for the peace of the world lies in arbitration and judicial settlement between nations, and I am very glad SPECIAL NOTICES.

B the Associated Press. LONDON, August 16.—"This is the first treaty of real peace since the war,” said Col. James A. Logan, jr., handling the bulky documents em- bodying the conference results. Col. Logan, who attegded all the confer- ences since that of Versailles, said that the London sessions were of bus- iness men around a table trying and determined to reach an agreement. As soon as the conference ended the telegraph lines and cables began unloading a_flood of congratulatory messages. One of the first received was from King George. Gen. Dawes sent congratulations to the conference and the delegates wired a reply immediately. Premier MacDonald, as president of the conference, was the only one to sign his name to the documents; the other delegates initialed them only.

The despairing woman soon went into hysterics and had to bé removed. The prisoner, who is a widow, was convicted of having made a false declaration regarding the birth of her child in an effort to have it re- garded as legitimate. Her husband has been dead three years. The “caging” practice has been in disuse in England for about a hun- dred years. i —_— Whose Birthday Tomorrow?

When the session was brought to a close tonight, Mrs. Stephen H. Pell of New York und Ticonderoga had modified her declaration that she would not accept nomination by promising she would reconsider a unanimous request voiced by the con- vention today. The party's election policy was de- fined in a resolution offered by Miss Alice Paul, party vice chair which proposed that the party dorse for Congress and do its utmost to elect all women nominees, irre- spective of their political affiliations, who seem qualified to sit in Congress and who will support the equal rights amendment and the general feminist program.” Anked to Give Views. The policy was amplified in a reso- lution offered by Mrs. Isabel McCar- rach of Brooklyn, which was adopted, providing that “every candidate for Congress be asked to state his or her position on the proposed equal rights amendment and that a letter be sent from national headquarters to the candidates to ascertain their posi- tion.” Mrs. Pell as vice chairman reported subscriptions to the party’s campaign fund $5,000 on direct appeal, and it was decided to increase the found- ers’ ligt from 700 to 1,000, thus adding $30,000 to the fund. Mrs. Gasta Wold Boer of Kansas City, Mo., reported three gifts to the party. One of these, a gift of ap- proximately $10,000 ir the form of furnishings for the main drawing room of the party's national head- quarters at Washington came from ‘William Randolph Hearst, in memory of his mother, Mrs. Phoebe Hearst, a member of the party’s national coun- cil.

LABORITE SCORES BRITAIN'S POLICIES Says Record Toward League Disappointing—People Favor Organization. By the Associated Press. WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass.. August 16, ‘Disappointing as has been the record of the British toward the league, no one who has had the op- portunity of watching the movement of working-class opinion in England doubts that it is overwhelmingly in vor of that organization,” Richard H. Tawney, active leader in the British Labor party, said tonight at the Insti- tute of Politics, in a lecture defining the foreign policy of his party. The discrediting of the coalition and conservative governments was largely due to the belief that they were disinclined to make a consistent attempt to remove the main impedi- ments to a better international under- standing, Mr. Tawney said. “Labor regards with dismay,” he continued, “a policy having as its object the or- Eanization of international life on the basis of a political group which aims at securing its members on favorable terms as against outsiders by means of preferential tariffs and discrimi- nating dutles. It believes that for any country to monopolize raw ma- terials or markets is to produce re- prisals and to perpetuate the Strug- £le for privilege which has been the background of international policies for 40 year: Stability is Desired. “The alternative to economic im- perialism is some form of economic internationalism,” Mr. Tawney said, “and it is in_this direction that labor is looking. What the observer of in- ternational problems now desires is stability, and for this reason he sup- ports the Dawes plan and is even more anxious to resume trade with Russia than to collect debts from her.” Boris A. Bakhmeteff, former Rus- sian ambassador to the United States, at the conclusion of his lecture this morning on the Russian situation, in answer to a question of Admiral W. W. Phelps regarding education in Russia, declared that preference was being given to young Communists. He said that the universities this year will only be able to take in 13,000 students, as compared with the 37,000 enrolled last year, and that the num- ber of primary schools has declined from 70,000 to 55,00 “In regard to oil,” Dr. Bakhmeteft said in reply to another question, “there has been only one partial con- cession since 1921; the Communists are eager to develop their oil re- sources, and production approaches pre-war figures.” -— LEVIATHAN SAILS AGAIN.

All are glad that the agony finally is over, ‘hu( few are exultant at the terms, the premier's friends and foes alike brac ing themselves for a warm debate in the chamber and senate over ratifi- jcation at the end of next week. And neither side appears to relish the prospect. | The supporters of M. Herriot and the government are confident that ratification will be obtained easily in the chamber, and that it will be merely reluctant in the senate. Its opponents so far have displayed no vigorous intention to defeat ap- proval., but the opposition leaders may accomplish much in the next few days in lining up their forces. Foes Are Daunted. The general impression however, is that they | good deal of steam cussion, vet allow the conference terms to be ratified. Some of them have expressed the view that they do not dare to defeat ratification and overthrow the. government, because the work would have to be done over again under the most difficult cir- cumstances, if at all, and that if they approve under protest they can al- ways blame M.

It is accepted rather as the most promising solution thus far, but it is argued that it was obtained at too great a sacrifice. They realize the truth of what their financial writers have been telling them—that money is not going to pour into France and any relief from their overwhelming debts and troublesome financial con- dition, still complicated by the budget deficit, can come only through dras- tic ®governmental economies, with higher taxation, which is far from pleasing. 16.-—M.

BENTON HARBOR, Mich., August 16.—While relatives of Cora May Raber today carried the body of the girl back to her farm home near Glendora, authorities continued their investigation of her slaving, for which Emil Zupke, erstwhile sweet- heart, and Florence McKinney, his later friend and alleged companion on the night of the killing, are held in the county jail. | Tomorrow. one week from the time the unidentified body was found in a thicket near here, the body of the slain girl will be buried in the country churchyard near her home, which she left August 6. in a wedding dress to meet Zupke after his written promise to marry her and care for her unborn baby. Meanwhile, Zupke. abandoned by his family and said by officers to have confessed to the killing of the girl, awaits arraignment in the district court, at which time he says he will plead guilty to a charge of murder.

Marx Majority Believed Sufficient for Victory. By the Associated Press. BERLIN, August 16.—Despite wide- spread disappointment over the gov- ernment’s fallure to obtaln a more concillatory concesslon on the ques- tion of the Ruhr evacuation, there is a very definite impression current in political circles that the Marx-Strese- mann cabinet will command a suffi- cient majority in the Reichstag both for the approval of legislation hav- ing to do with the Dawes report and on the general question of confidence with respect to the government's pro- cedure in London. While the Nationalists are already doing considerable talking. in- ad- vance in opposition to the govern- ment's yielding on the Ruhr issue, their present protests are not viewed as reflecting the party's ultimate at- titude on the floor of the Reichstag, and there is a strong suspicion thaf the party will refrain from casting active oppositional ballots, thus as- suring the cabinet of a clear-cut ma- Jority..
