PARIS, February 8.—J. P. Mor- gan, Owen D. Young and Thomas W. Lamont, the American repara- tions experts, arrived in Paris this afternoon aboard a special train from Cherbourg. By the Associated Press. CHERBOURG, February 8—J. P. Morgan, Owen D. Young and Thomas W. Lamont, American reparations ex- perts, disembarked from the 8. 8. Aqui- tania this morning and immediately boarded a special train for Paris, where | they will attend the impending repara- tions conferences. They showed themselves also to be experts in discretion. They managed to get aboard their train without reveal- ing anything to correspondents, who met them, except pleasure at the polite reception and their desire to avoid talking. The Americans had expected to have two cars attached to the special boat train, but the French had a four-coach train all ready to carry the delegates and their staff of 34 to Paris. Messers. Morgan, Young and Lamont had a pri- vate car to themselves and their suite was in the other two cars. The fourth car was a diner, since the party will ar- rive in Paris only by midafternoon. | The police commissary, in full uni- form, boarded the steamer to offer his iservices in getting the party ashore promptly, but the delegates merely thanked him for his thoughtfulness and went to breakfast. Their passports were without special visas and they asked no favors except privacy. ‘When newspaper men appeared Mr. Young limited discussion of the big problem that bfings him to France to “I am merely a business man, so I have nothing to say to the newspaper men.” Mr. Morgan, even more shy, told of- ficials: “I wish even to avoid the pho- tographers,” and he almost succeeded by standing behind Mr. Young, who was hardly largé enough to hide him, when the delegates passed a battery of cameras clicking like machine guns on their way along the pier to the train, There probably would not have been any pictures at all if French officials had not organized a reception commit- tee and the delegates had to pause an instant to listen to the greetings and to express their thanks. The delegates also were greeted by Fred B.

The story, with all its intimate details, will continue in The Star until completed. BY REX COLLIER. Ecuador, land of the Equator, having | ienjoyed a recent touch of Americaniza- tion at the hands of Yankee economic experts, was ready to demonstrate her friendship for the United States in a most lavish way. ‘The rugged tropical domain, once ruled by a valiant Inca and now pre- sided over by an able descendant of Ecuador’s aboriginal population, was elated that it had been placed at the head of the list of South American countries to be visited by the Hoover good-will mission. Earlier plans to stop at Panama and Colomhia had been canceled because of the long detour eastward that would have been necessitated. The schedule already had been postponed a whole day because of the Tehuantepec storm, and a further postponement of two or three days would be avoided by cutting straight across the open sea from Costa Rica "to. the northwestern “hump” of the Southern continent. President-elect Hoover and his party learned much of Ecuador’s political and economic situations in conferences with American Minister Gerhart g and two Ecuadorian officials prior to the landing at Guayaquil. Minister Bading and the Ecuadorian representatives, Senor Colon Eloy Alfaro, minister for 'hls country at Panama, and Finance | Minister Tejada, were on board the U. S. 8.

Marvelous Change.” During the slow ride up the turbulent , against a swift current that delayed progress of the cruiser but did not bother the alligators mtestlxm thz river, there was related to the pai remarkable story of the "rehlrl,h" o( Ecuador under the saluta~y ministra- tions of its new Medico-President, Dr. Isidro Ayora. The treatment which Dr. Ayora had prescribed for his revolution-agitated pauent had been a drastic one, involving prescription had wrought a marvelous change in the feverish republlc lmrd- ing to the mission’s informants. It seems that three years ago Dr. Ayora was a stranger to politics, but a man who had gained an enviable repu- tation as a surgeon and as a worker for the public weal. There came one of the periodic revolutions which have beset the republic since its early days, and the constitu government was wn by a bloodless military coup. two military leaders who were great soldiers but poor statesmen. The revo- lutionists realized that the tottering economic situation portended a crash unless the reins of mmment ‘were put into more efficient ds. So a search was begun for some one in the confi- dence of the people who could assume dlctlmwuh” ip and bring about a degree Doctor Takes Job. Dr. Ayora was agreed upon as the ‘man for the job He was reluctant to forsake his profession, however, and at first refused to consider the offer to ubecome his country’s visional execu- ve. - ce | sistent that finally Dr. Ayora consented to be dictator on a part-time basis if they would let him continue his medi- cal work, too. The proposition was ac- cepted and Dr. Ayora began the task of treating human ills and ameliorat- ing governmental ills at the same time. If his milif supporters had thought Dr. Ayora would serve them as a mere figurehead, they were due an unpleas- ant surprise. The doctor soon startled his nation by ann that he was going to find out what was wrong with Ecuador and that political economists from the United States were Lo help him do it. In effect, he let it he known he was going to have Ecuador “psycho-analyzed” by American eco- nomic experts. Prof. Edwin W. Kemmerer of Prince- ton University and a staff of assistants were given the assignment. They found phnty of troubles to psycho- analyze. At length the American com- mission announced a list of 25 economic reforms which they deemed absolutely essential to the financial rehabilitation of the republic. Among other things, the recommendations called for the es- tablishment of a national central bank, promulgation of a budget law, new methods of taxation and revision of customs duties. Finances Reorganiesd. Dr. Ayora proceeded at once to carry out the recommendations. The entire al system was reorganized. A central bank was established, a mort- gage bank for agriculture was formed, a bank was organized for the q:ecm purpose of relieving the government of an enormous pension burden, the mon- etary system was stabilized, a general banking law was adopted, and for the first time in Ecuador’s history the na- tional budget was balanced. Not satisfied with these fundamental moves, Dr. Ayora decided to insure smooth operation of the reforms by creating a “little cabinet” of Amerlcln in ‘The experts. posts thus filled by American citizens were those of con- troller general, director general of cus- toms, financial adviser to the national bank, and superintendent general of ‘To these Americans he gave free rein, with the result that his nation benn to experience a complete financial re- naissance. The economic horizon, unfor- tunately, had become beclouded by a cacao_blight, which threatened to dis- rupt Ecuador's principal industry. But the enterprising Ayora met the emerg- ency by launching a program of agri- cultural research designed to find a profitable substitute for cacao as a major crops. Enacts Welfare Work.

To show his friendship for the Americans Dr. Ayora had made a two-day railroad journey from Quito, the capital, to Guayaquil to act personally as host to the good-will mission, and had super- intended the elaborate preparations made to receive the visitors. A na- tional holiday had been pmclumed Minister Bading disclosed. A warm midday sun was beating dnwn on the deck of the Cleveland as she nosed her way nearer to Ecuador’s principal port. Guayaquil has a warm climate in contrast to the balmy atmo- is | sphere which prevails over the high in- land plateaus, where Quito is located. Two distinct mountain ranges, or cor- dilleras, rear themselves to great alti- tudes in Ecuador. One of the peaks, Chimborazo, long had been hailed as the highest mountain in South Amer- ica, but its 20,700 feet of altitude had been found to be exceeded by other peaks, including the mighty Aconcagua, in the Chilean Andes. Because of the mountainous topography Ecuador boast- ed a wide range of temperatures, rang- in gfrom the heat of the lowlands to the bitter cold of the snow-capped heights. ‘The rainy season was about to begin when the Hoover party made its visit, and the Guayas River was yellow with mud washed from hillsides of the inte- | rior, where the rains already had be- gun.

J. D. MacGregor, vice president of the Pan-American Airways, said that the colonel was expected to return to- | day from the fleet. He has been a guest aboard the airplane carrier Saratoga, and has been watching practice ma- neuvers of the Navy Aviation Corps in | connection with tactical rehearsals by the fleet as a whole. Mr. MacGregor said that he had not heard of the pro- posed flight to CoJombia, and he re- marked that it was not a part of the original plans for Lindbergh’s trip here. The announcement by W. Irving Glover, Assistant Postmaster General at ‘Washington in charge of aviation, that Lindbergh would carry mails on his re- turn flight from Panama to the United States caused considerable activity in Canal Zone postal circles. The Pana- man government put special stamps on sale this morning, and there was a big demand for them by people who wished to send missives to the United States on a machine piloted by the famous aviator.
