On that occasion 'here was some con- fusion, as Mr. Coolidge was competing | with the horse races, and some on the tringe_of the crowd, unable to hear the Vice President, started a noisy demonstration designed to bring on the start of the races. One of the most significant signs that the President is not entirely un- mindful of the present heat is that he did not take his usual dally stroll early today, but went on a, short automobile ride instead. During this hort trip he dropped in on his nose and throat speclalist to have a treat- ment and examination, before leaving for the West. Hughes Is Caller. Former Secretary of State Hughes was one of President Coolidge's cal- lers today.

Italy and the Little En- tente would probably not go far in assisting Poland to retain the Corri der or Upper Silesia, but a German at tack upon Poland by force would cer- | tainly disturb all and France as well. Thus even the Germans realize that at present they cannot hope to change frontiers by force and have merely tried to leave the way open to attain this end by negotiation. But even the suggestion of this process has roused significant protests in ;Rome Belgrade, Prague and Bucharest, while Warsaw has shown its purpose to de. fend i frontiers and France, as yet, has disclosed no willingness to assent to German wishes, even when urged by the British and promised security by the Germans. All of which serves to make clear how far off and how difficult is the remaking of the frontiers of Europe by negotiation and how infallibiy new jerman hopes encounter new obsta. cles.

ITALY DISAPPOINTING. Surprise is manifest in some circles here over the statement of Finance Minister de,.Stefani yesterday to the Italfan Senate that Italy is not now in position to fund its war debts. ‘The minister declared further that no systemization of inter-allied war debts can be accepted unless subordi- nated to the possibility of payment, and such possibility can only be oi- fered by the financial situation of a state and by the budget of interna- tional payments. This budget, he said, today cannot support any further burdens. The announcement surprised officials ihere, who had taken an optimistic view of the situation because of the Italian Ambassador's recent conversations with Secretary Mellon. It had been supposed by some that important prog- ress was being .made toward prelimi- nary negotiations for a settlement, but the prospect now appears to be for a considerable delay. Ten-year Moratorium. Ambassador de Martino is said to have sought to avold giving the im- pression that Italy was ready to act at once, although the Treasury con- ferences were regarded as designed to give him a definite idea as to the minimum basis of settlement which would be acceptable to the Debt Com- missfon. The suggestion of Italian senators that Italy be granted a period of delay in starting payments on the in- terest and principal of her debt also has been discussed by the Ambassador with Treasury officlals. One senator advocated a 10-year moratorium, after which there could be provision for ment payments. gine houses and has discussed police affairs in a general way with Acting Supt. Evans. Col. Fenning said he regarded prohi- bition enforcement as a Ssubject big enough to be taken up at a special conference later, and for that reason he did not devote much time to it in his first session with Inspector Evans “In enforcement of the liquor laws, as in all other problems, I propose to try to get at the root of the question at the outset,” said the new Commis. sloner. “It is my belief that all these municipal problems should be ap- proached in much the same way that a physician approaches a‘case of dis- case. He sets out to discover the root or cause of the trouble before he pre- scribes a_cure.” When he addressed the police cap- talns and fire chiefs yesterday after- noon Col. Fenning told them he plan- ned to make occasional visits to their respective stations to get first-hand information. He inaugurated this policy this ' morning by stopping at the Tenley- town police substation before going to the District Building. The Commis- sloner said he was impressed with the rapid growth of that section of ‘the city and expressed the belief that there would soon be need for a full police precinct there in the near fu- ture. The Commissioner will hold confer- ences Monday and Tuesday with Fire Chief George Watson and Health Off- cer Fowler to find out what their out- standing oroblems are. -_— TWO BROTHERS DROWN.
