NAVAL DELEGATES OF U. S. ABLE MEN Gibson, Dawes, Morrow and Others Have Records of Achievement. * In many respects the American dele- gation wnyflu London conference is one of the most capable the "Unlt_ed States Government has ever sent abroad. The group is 8 combination of skiliful negotiators, able lawyers and interna- tionally minded diplomats. : First and foremost as the best all- around member of the delegation is Hugh Gibson, American Ambassador to Belgium, who bore the brunt of mi; dent Coolidge's Naval conlcrenuu:‘ Geneva and who is perhaps the informed man in the American oove'rxl; ment on the armament question and = background of previous negotiations. He has the confidence of President Hmfi who has known h\n;( n;:m“:- éhe days can relief work abroad. v N:'nxl comes the American ‘Ambassador at London, Charles G. Dawes, ‘who h; been conferring from time to time wi the prime minister and who also made a study of the armament pmblal?. His knowledge of what American public opinion would accept and his influence in the United States generally make him a spokesman of extraordinary power abroad. He has the prestige of having served not only as a l%,cnenl in n;‘; X jona c Ahlnm"::‘ ut EXP¥ice President of the United States. Morrow Is Resourceful. ight Morrow, American Ambassa do?:n’l(exko, who is soon to be United States Senator from New Jersey, has ;l; intimate acquaintance with many the Prench and British officials who will be at the conference. He is one of the most resourceful men in diplomacy and will be particularly valuable in making contacts for the delegation, as well as in working out & formula of comj ,, for which he is especially nof The three men mentioned represent the diplomatic side of the American group.

Is a Star Branch Office BY JOUETT SHOUSE *| Aims of Democrats Are Out- lined—G. Q. P. Rebuked for Criticism. Special.Dispatch to The Star. BALTIMORE, Md, January 9.— Speaking before the Concord Club of Baltimore at a Jackson day dinner last night, Jouett Shouse, chairman of the executive committee of the Democratic national committee, declared that An- drew Jackson's fight against the Na- had become the financial dictator of the country, was actuated by the deter- mination to guard the lmc:r%um:g“m , as is the fight of the De: 5 h Hawley tariff bill. The National Bank of the United States, he said, “first in- troduced into American politics the at- tempted corporate control of elections.’ Wilson’s Work Praised. After asserting that it was another Democratic President, Woodrow Wilson, who had given to the country the Fed- eral Reserve System which “carried us and the world through the most terrible war in history and has stood the test of every domestic crisis,” Mr. Shouse denounced the attempt of Republicans to show that Democratic control of Government “is a breeder of panics and a forerunner of business distress.” He ted that the Democratic party has a constrictive program and that the party was not intending merely to tear down the Republican policies, among them the policy of the protective tariff. Mr. Shouse said it was a fact that “our Democratic Senators, with the as- sistance of practically every progressive of the other party, succeeded in break- ing down the conspiracy to put over on the country the exorbitant, discrim- inatory and altogether outrageous Smoot-Hawley tariff bill. That, the Republicins say, was destructive. It was in the same manner as killing off the boll weevil or the Mediterranean fruit fiy is destructive.” No “Ripper” Legislation. Mr. Shouse Insisted that the Demo- crats would not seek any “ripper” legls- lation, destructive to business, but that it would increase the tariff rates on farm products which needed protection. He said that the Democrats were | strongly opposed to the administration’s | flexible tariff amendment to the bill. which was stricken out by the Senate “coalition.” . Of this he said: "The most important feature of the Democratic tariff program is the recla- mation by Congress of the authority delegated to the President, under the present flexible tariff law, of altering the rates enacted by the National Legis- lature. This grant of Mr. Hoover sought to have broadened and ex- tended.” was Mrs. Eva Adams Dies. WICHITA, Kans., January vum. Mrs. Eva Adam! author turer, died at her home here yesterday.
