We have considered the matter carefully and have decided that the possibility of giving offense would be greater than the posaibility of making for bitter understanding. “At such a gathering, attended by thousands of people, there is no tell- ing what little incident might arise, especially with men in unfoirm pres: ent, which would lead to very regret- able results through no fault of our own. We had rather stay away alto- gether than have the slightest possi- Dility of any such incident. No War Bitterness. “We want to assure the people of America that our only wish is for a better understanding, that we enter- tain no war bitterness, that our ideal is for a’ universal motherhood en- circling the world. Our staying away is because we want to promote the ideal, not because we do not honor to the fullest the man lying there. None of our delegates had a son Killed in the war. Sowe of them, I believe, had husbands who fought in the war. “But in_the churches, before the Almighty Father, it is different.

PHILADELPEIA, May 9.—An ex- tension of 30 days was granted by ederal Judge Thompson today to the Lethlehem Steel Corporation and four subsidiaries for the filing of their answers to the Government's suit for the return of overpayments of more than $15,000,000 alleged to have been received on “cost-plus” ship construc- tion contracts during the World War. The answers were to have been filed today in the United States District Court, but counsel for the Govérn- ment consented to the company’s re- quest for additional time in which to prepare them. Counter Suit Pending. The Government’s suit was filed April 17, the same day the Bethlehem company filed an action against the Government in the New York Federal Court for the recovery of approxi- mately $9,000,000 on ship contracts. In its bill of particulars the Govern- ment alleged that the Bethlehem com- panies had been paid $15,000,000 more than they were legally entitled to and red that although Charles M. of the Bethlehem . while director general of the Tleet Corporation required other ship- builders to limit their profits to 10 per ‘cent above the cost of construc- tion, he did not compel his own com- panies to abide by that rule.

ON CONPROVE Prospects for Peace Held Brighter as Union Agrees to Act Soon. s o VR As the painters’ strike enters its sixth week prospects for its settle- ment are considered brighter than at any time since the walkout was called. As the result of a conference yes- terday between the master painters and the union men, brought about by John B. Colpoys, Federal mediator, a compromise offer has been made to union men and will be cconsidered at a special meeting to be called the early part of this week. The meeting will be held within the next day or so. Willlam J. Gallagher, international organizer for the union painters, pointed out that if a compromise set. tlement is accepted by his men it will demonstrate an unselfish spirit in the cause of harmony on the part of the painters who are now getting $10 a day, which is the amount asked by the "union. It is understood that the offer ‘of the master painter§ revolves around a $9.50 scale. There are other fea- tures jn the plan, it is said, which might prove attractive to the union men if they consider a compromise. There will be a meeting of a spe- clal committee of the union painters | today, at which the exact place and | tme of the special meeting will be decided upon. $49-50 less display room. a new delight in cooking. zones are always availa See the Smoothtop the new speed burner that will put a new heart in your kitchen The innovations which the New Smoothto; ; & Cooking, simmering and warming Smoothtop—no heat is wasted. what Mr. Winston himself has dis- closed. The vague hints that the Washing- ton Government had recently taken steps to expedite a discussion of the French debt question were met at the State Department by a flat denial that there had been any recent official cor- respondence on the subject. Mr. Wins- ton, in saying he knew of no new move, indicated that he would most C, MAY 10, 1925—PART 1. certainly have been informed had the administration planned to dispatch a communication to Paris. Despite this negative result of direct inquiries, the tendency to belleve that Mr. Winston's visit could not have failed to be of assistance in clearing the way for debt settlement fonversa- tlon persists among those diplomats who would talk informally. It wa$ felt that French officials must have gained in their conversa- tions with him further evidence of the desire of the Washington administra- tion that the debt question be taken up and brought to settlement at the earliest possible moment, although it has no desire to impose harsh terms in working out the detalls.
