4 + BUSINESS' PRAISE National Chamber of Com-, merce Delegates Discuss European Financial Affairs. Troblems of the financial rehabilita- tion of western Europe, with particu- lar attention to the effects of the Dawes plan, occupied the attention of husiness men from 11 Eastern States. who gathered today in the new home of the Chamber of Commerce of the United tes and at luncheon at Rauscher’s in connection with the midyear meet of the Eastern di- vision of the national chamber. | A morning session devoted to re-| ports by managers of the several de- partments of the chamber,was fol- lowed by the luncheon, with Willis H. Booth of New York, president of the American section of the Interna- | tional Chamber, under whose auspices | the luncheon was he'd, the principal speaker. A. C. Bedford of New York., St as chairman of the special meeting, also had a cablegram from Owen D. | Young, who assisted in framing the | Dawes plan, and acted as temporary | agent general of reparaticns prior to | tiie permanent appointment of S.

Bed- ford declared. “In advance of any assurance of a loan, Germany h: paid in the last six weeks more than $30.000.000, most of which in one way or ‘another has been distributed to the creditor countries. Now that the loan is completed and the proceeds put under the control of the agent general, practically all of the funds are in hand for the first year's ope ation of the Dawes plan “Nathing could be more helpful to the restoration of confidence and hope to the discouraged people of Europe than the magnificent expression of confidence by the American people ms shown in fhelr oversubscription of the German loan.” Solve Three Major Problems. Mr. Booth, who has just returned from Iurop expressed the opinion that three major problems must be solved if Europe is to be completely vehabilitated. These are, he said Determination of the aggregate umount of German payments for rep- wrations Consideration of the debts from oue European country to another in {heir relation to such reparation pay- ments into which at a later date. when a proper foundation is laid, the debts of those countries to America will have to enter.

Claim Partial Credit. | Mr. Bedford characterized the prob- lem of settlement of the interallied debis as the problem that must be solved before reconstruction is fun- damentally on its way. Referring to the formal opening of the new build- ing of the national chamber, Mr. Bed- ford called it “a building dedlcated 1o all that is best and most helpful in the promotion of the prosperity not alone of the United States, but of all the peoples of the world.” He added that the elements of the Dawes plan fall partly to the credit of the International Chamber of Commerce, which outlined them at Rome in March, 1923, s Secretary Mellon, James M. Beck, | Solicitor General of the United States, | and other high Government officials attended the luncheon, Lewls E. Pierson of New York, vice president of the chamber, presided at | the morning meetinky where reports were heard from Alvin E. Dodd, W. Du B. Brookings, E. W. McCullough, | John J. O'Connor and Chauncey D. Snow, all managers of departments of the chamber, with special reference | pald by each manager-to co-operation by the Government and with the Gov- crnment in the problems of industry.

Last January the Marnissa attempted a revolt against| Abdel Krim, but were savagely re- pressed. In April a strong French May iged m | tribe called Sons of Zeroual, made a suc- cessful incursion into Riff territory land for a moment even shook Abdel | Krim's power. But they were driven | off. Meanwhile, Marshal Lyautey, the | resident general of French Morocco, | decided to effect an important ad- vance in the north. Native runners were sent to inform both Abdel Krim and the tribes of the southern Riff| |cf the French intentions. | Counter Move Is Swift. Abdel Krim waited a month before | replying, assuring the French of his| zood will, but warning them not to | cross the Ouergha River. But he was | too late. The French had already moved. The operations were under | the direction of Gen. de Chambrun, ! commander of the north Moroccan my, who is a descendant of La- fayette and is well known in Wash- ington political circles. On May 26 a force of less than 10,- 0 French troops, mostly Algerians and Sencgalese, friendly to the Mo- | roccans, crossed the Ouergha on a | two-miie front without resistance The shieks of the valley tribes pre- |sented themselves before the French staff and in a solemn ceremonial gave a token of submission by cuting the throat of an ox. The French mobile columns quick- 1y extended their front on both flanks. By July 15, @ strip of territory 10 miles deep and 125 miles wide had been fully occupied and organized, thereby depriving Abdel Krim of some 60,000 subjects and 10,000 fight- ing men, of tax values amounting to | 100,000 trancs, and of thousands of | acres of fertile fields, vineyards and olive groves. He lost, indeed, what | was probably the richest part of his alleged territory, and her frritation against the French seems to have | been considerable, for the reaction was immediate. Slip Up on French. Constant skirmishes occurred be- tween Abdel Krim's scouts and na- tives dwelling under the shelter of |the French outposts, whom the | French were arming and supporting. ! Riffian bands attacked half-completed | French blockhouses, On June 5, 2,000 Riffian raiders, ad- | vancing on the French left, were | driven off only after a hard ‘battle by | the friendly tribesmen, assisted by | French cannon and afrplanes. On July 23, a force of 3,000 Riffians with many pack animals surprised a post of fifteen French Senegalese by night and slipped through the French lines into Ouergha Valley, rounding up flocks and herds, looting granarie: killing or capturing the inhabitants, smashing mudhouses, firing piles of straw under the olive trees, and tram- pling ripe pumpkins. The landscape, under the ~ cold African starlight, glowed red with burning thatche: A French of four battalions of infantry, a squadron of cavalry and a few arm- ored cars, marched 35 miles in 24 hours, caught the Rifflans scattered and unaware in the act of loading booty on pack animals, and inflicted a severe lesson, cutting off and cap- turing some while the rest were pur- sued far into the hills by French air bombers.

Each blockhouse contains 30 to 40 men with one or two cannon, several 1 chine guns and food and a enough for six or eight months, blockhouse covers its own supply. The lines are so arranged that can- non fire from adjacent blockhouses crosses and rifle fire practically meets.

Similarly at the eastern extremity of the Spanish zone the French are strengthening their positions: along the River Mou- ‘louya to the Mediterranean. There remains only a mountainous strip, 10 miles deep and 125 miles wide, in the RIff itself, to complete the occupation by the French of their protectorate in north Morocco. In other words, anether French advance into the RIff, either this year or next year, is likely. - The chief pro-occupation of all con- cerned is what the mysterious and powerful Riffidn leader, Abdel Krim, will attempt to accomplish mean- while.
