PRESSES PRIVATE LOAN PLAN AS ONLY SOLUTION $nell Ridicules Talk as Acceptance Speech for Party Nomination. Woman Heckler Hurried Out After Shouting Taunt From the Gallery. President Hoover's attempt to bring about a compromise on the $2,100,000,000 unemployment re- lief bill, now hanging fire in Con- gress, failed today at a two-hour conference at the White House between the Chief Executive and a bi-partisan group of six Senate and House 'leaders. Following this conference, which was held in the President's private office, beginning at 9 o'clock, members of the confer- ence group said no satisfactory agreement could be reached. They added that from all appearances the attempt to compromise was a failure, and might be taken as a break between the Executive and legislative branches. It was indicated by the leaders of the group that the conferees will go ahead with their reports to the Senate and House, respec- tively, upon the legislation as it was agreed upon in conference. Representative Rainey of Illinois, majority leader of the House, felt that the report would be made at once to the House and that its adoption would be forthcoming. Ready for Finish Fight. Lat in a dramatic address to the ucu‘:,x Speaker Garner told his col- Jeagues today that he would fight to the end against President Hoover's views on relief legislation. Taking the fioor in a surprise move, the Speaker shouted that the Chief Ex- ecutive wanted a “selected clientele” to reap the benefits of the Reconstruction rporation. * Cc“%ue propose to say to ine President that there shall be no more class legis- Jation,” Garner roared as the packed galleries and the silent members lis- tened attentively. “1 can say now, and I have the Presi- dent's authority for it, that this coun- try is in worse shape now than it has been in its history,” Garner continued. “For when I asked the President he ryeplied that the appropriation of $300,- 000,000 might lead to a panic. “His policy has been so uncertain | thsi if he looks for a panic around | the pe we can look for good | 1d out for the prin- the base of the » Corporation so that all | Reconstructi benefit from it instead persons cou of any cne Claims Banks Refuse. | Garner said, “There is no place where an individual can borrow money in this country any more,” adding that the banks that had borrowed from the Reconstruction Corporation were re- 1 MAY SOLVE CRISIS now | Proposal Would Settle “War The new rate went into effect at midnight last night as part Guilt” Issue Raised by Germany. 3-Cent Letter Rate, of the $1,118,500,000 tax bill.

By the Associated Press LAUSANNE, Switzerland, July 6.—It was reliably reported this evening that legal experts had solved the “‘war guilt” controversy raised by Germany at the reparations conference by inserting a single phrase in the compromise agree- ment by which it is hoped to bring the conference to a close.

Premier Herrlot of France said at first it would be impossible for him to re- Juce the original figure, but subsequently he did compromise and the amount now mentioned varies between two and four billion marks. This afternoon legal experts were working on a compromise, which they hoped would be sufficlently strong to appease the German demand for re- noval of the “war gullt” statement with- ocut destroying any part of the Versail- les Treaty. The German delegation was understood to have said the “war guilt” issue was even more important to them than a reparations settlement. Herriot Makes Demand. A flat declaration from Premier Her- riot that either the United States must revise war debt schedules or Germany must continue to pay reparations under | the Young plan chilled the conference. Premier Herriot's declaration -was made last night, at the end of a day of negotiations which led nowhere. It was given to the press in explanation of why France demands a safeguarding | clause, protecting her reparations in- . in case America remains adamant confident the United States will be | COMS U e iy willing to reduce their war debts eub- | el e s stantially on the plea that they are . e thi o “ e et hac” they | , At the same time the impression gre had undertaken when they agreed to Tespective debt-funding agree- ments. Premier Herriot is by no means convinced France will receive similar treatment. Prance is afraid that, after she has sliced Germany's debt by 90 per cent, she will be told by the United Seek Own Solution. In the meantime, the European pow- ers will endeavor to readjust and find a solution for their important political and economic problems. The most im- portant question is the settlement of the reparation question. ‘The stumbling block at Lausanne to- day is not the matter of whether Ger- meny can pay $600,000,000 to $1,000,~ 000,000. When the French agreed to reduce the German reparation debt from about $10,000,000,000, which Ger- | many owed in accordance Wwith the Young plan, by 90 per cent of that sum. the few hundred millions which are apparently involved today in the controversy between the two countries are of no consequence. According to well informed quarters, a compromise around the figure of | $750,000,000 could be easily reached.| The chief obstacle to such a compro- | mise is the fact France does not know whether, after she has made such a drastic reduction, the United States Government would be willing to make a corresponding reduction of France's debt to this country. The British and Italians seem to be | attached the greatest importance to the | elimination of the “war guilt” clause | from the treaty of Versailles and resto- ration of Germany's right to arm, con- sidering them more important, for ex- ample, than fixing the amount Ger- fusing to lend money for the restota-| tion of industry or development. | House y his| of the | y and not to | ef proposi- | _because I ¢ a s not accept it, I yre the country for | while President Hoover | m for his ‘selected am the goes clientele a question, Garner said he conferees might accept s suggestions on_all but ued on Page 2, Column 1.)

By the Associated Press, BERLIN, July 6—The American round-the-world flying team, Bennett Grifin and James Mattern, set their red, white and blue monoplane down in Berlin at 5:40 p.m. (11:40 am,, E. S. T.) today, and thereby set two new marks for other aviators to shoot at. They brought their “Century of Progress” across the Atlantic in the amazingly fast time of 18 hours and 41 minutes, and became the first American transatlantic flyers to reach this capital non-stop. Mattern said they would take off again for Moscow before night unless the weather made it inadvisable. “Not a Bit Tired.” “Tired?” he said. “Not a bit. We've got double controls and we | stood regular watches. While I was working Griff slept, and when | he took over, I curled up. | “It was 10 hours and 50 minutes on the dot after we left Harbor Grace that we sighted land. We kept on and from there—I guess | that was Ireland—we got to Berlin in 17 hours and 40 minutes’ flying time altogether. “We’d have got here sooner—oh, hours sooner—but we missed the town and veered off to the north, Griff spotted the name on a little railroad station.” “For all we saw there might not have been any ocean at all. We were flying blind in fog and, believe it or not, our altitude ran from 6 inches to 10,000 feet,” he continued. “Well, we went south of Scotland and then we hit the North Sea. Just where we struck the continent of Europe I don't know.” Germans Offer Beer in Vain. German pilots on the field’ were jubilant when the American plane came down. Several of them ran out to where it rolled to a |stop and thrust foaming scuttles of beer at the flyers. To their amazement the Americans waved it aside. | “What we want,” said Griffin, “is a good long drink of water. | That beer looks good, but it might not set so well. We haven't had anything but oranges since we left New York.” But they both looked fine behind their wide grins as the wel- come became a small ovation.
