PARIS, France, June 13.—French Liberal circles, it is learned, are prepar- ing to revive discussion of the emer- gency plan for a meeting on the rep- arations, war debts and disarmament crisis, first proposed February 1 by the French publicist and advocate of Pranco-German friendship, Count Wlad- imir D'Ormesscn. The plan had already begun to call forth favorable comment in both Ger- many and France when the sudden springing of the Austro-German cus- toms union project overshadowed mo- | mentarily all other questions and rendered Franco-German conversations temporarily difficult. It is now said, however, that this is the only easy, practical plan thus far proposed and that the moment is more than ever propitious for its considera- tion following the Anglo-German Con- ference on Reparations at Chequers and the forthcoming visits to Europe of Secre.ary of State Henry L.

NEW YORK, June 13.—A modern | girl's adherence to the old-fashioned | custom of spending Sunday “with the folks” has caused a one-day postpone- ment of a flight to Prance. Ruth Nichols completed the last for- malities of her prejected flight across the ocean today, and for a time her representatives believed she would start tomorrow, but Miss Nichols dispelled that belief. She always tried, she said, to spend her Sundays with her parents and twinn brother and sister at the Nichols home in Rye, N. Y. and she saw no reason to alter that custom merely to expedite the first stage of her journey. 'So the take-off was put off until Monday, when she will fly, if the weather is propitious, to Portland, Me. The next day she plans to proceed to Harbor Grace, Newfoundland, refueling ‘on the way at St. John, New Brunswick, and Sydney, Nova Scotia. At Harbor Grace she will await favorable weather for the hop across the ocean to Paris.
