SLIDING SCALE CRITICISED Rise in Rediscount Rates Predicted at Conference of Bankers Rep resenting Clearing Houses. WASHINGTON, Jan. 6. Bankers representing clearing house associa tions in all parts of the country, meeting here today at the call of the federal reserve board, failed to take final action .on the question of inter est rates on bank balances, but de cided to hold another conference at which it Is expected an agreement may be reached to put a stop to com petitive bidding between- New York and inland cities for out-of-town de posits. At the request of the bankers, the federal reserve board tonight issued a call for a second conference at Chi cago, January 23, to be attended by three representatives from each fed eral reserve district. The purpose of the Chicago meet ing, as stated in a resolution, will be "to consider the whole question of in terest on balances In order that some basis may be agreed upon that will be mutually satisfactory, conducive to conservative banking, and benefit the entire business and banking com munity." Redlnconnt Rle Predicted. Governor Harding of the federal re serve board, served notice that the board did not consider itself b,ound ; by any agreement of clearing house on deposits would be advanced or re duced automatically in line with In creases or reductions in rediscount, rates of federal reserve banks, but would act "freely and independently" in taking any necessary action to meet the financial situation in vari ous parts of the country. Governor Harding predicted that a raise in the rediscount rates would be necessary, and appealed to the bankers not to "make a scramble for deposits" by ad vancing interest rates on balances. He protested against a tendency to turn deposits into investment funds. Sliding Scale Criticised. After hearing Governor Harding, the bankers went into executive ses sion. William Woodward of New York was chosen chairman; F. J. Wade of St. Louis, vice-chairman, and John R. Washburn of Chicago, sec retary. A resolution adopted gave the following propositions as the "opinions" of the meeting: That the present "sliding scale" for advancing or reducing interest rates is not satisfactory. That existing regulations should not be abrogated until more satisfac tory regulations are adopted govern ing rates of interest paid on deposits. That the federal reserve board should always be free to establish the rate of discount without reference to any clearing-house regulations as to payments of interest. That payment of high rates of in terest on bank or commercial bal ances Is unsound and is bad banking, and that every effort should be made to avoid such practice.

' Discussions Between Democrats t and Mild Reservattonists Hold Forth Little Promise. WASHINGTON, Jan. 6. Disposition was evidenced by leaders of all sen ate factions today to await President Wilson's message to the Jackson day I dinner of democratic leaders Thurs day before taking any further action on the German peace treaty situation. While numerous individual and In formal conferences' continued today between senators, spokesmen of the various groups said they did not ex pect any move in the senate until after President Wilson's letter is made public. The only new development today in the controversy was the inaugura tion of discussion between a few dem ocrats and "mild reservationist" re publicans, of mild modifications said to have been . prepared by Senator Kendrick, democrat, Wyoming. The draft of these reservations was said to have been presented to Senator 11c Narj. republican, Oregon, and other of the "mild reservation" republican group. The proposed modifications, it was said, had not been submitted to" Senator Hitchcock, of Nebraska, acting democratic leader; Senator Underwood, of Alabama; Senator Swanson, of Virginia, or other dem ocratic leaders. The ''mild reservation" leaders, it was said, were told that the Kendrick suggestions might, with modifica tions, form the basis of virtually solid democratic support. The Kendrtck reservations were reported to involve verbal changes and eliminations of the preamble of the Lodge reserva tions and considerable changes In the Lodge reservations affecting article 10 and the voting power of the league of nations. Republican leaders said they be lieved the Kendrick suggestions of fered no more tangible proposals for a compromise than the many sug gestions which have been recently tossed back and forth in private dis cussions. MENACE TO M SEEN ROAD DECLARED OPEN TO BOLSHEVIK FORCES. Grave Problem for Britain Created by Recent Red Successes, Says General Maurice. (Copyright by the New Tork World. Pub lished by Arrangement.) LONDON, Jan. 6. (Special cable.) Grave problems created by bolshevik military successes in Russia are clear ly set out by Major-Geieral Sir Fred erick Maurice in the Daily News. He states that as the result of the Brit ish policy of intervention with a force totally inadequate to make it effec tive "we are more hated in Russia than we have ever been." Dealing with the military situation. General Maurice says: "The bolshe viki have completely broken through the barrier In the east, and their road to Tashkend, Samarkand and Bokhara Is now open. They can now establish direct communication with Persia, Afghanistan and the northwest fron tier of India. Reports from Russia indicate that they- are preparing to take advantage of that fact. "If we attempt to shut bolshevik Russia off from the west and are at the same time unable to close the roads to the east, it is obvious that we shall be tending to drive her in the very direction in which she can do us the most damage. As usual the policy of compromise has left' us on the horns of a dilemma, and it will r.ot be easy to come down off them."

ACCEPTANCE IS DEFENDED President Lewis to Address Con vention Today, Then Ask Vote to .Affirm Actions. COLUMBUS. Ohio. Jan. 6. Defend ing the action of himself and Acting President John L. Lewis in agreeing to accept President Wilson's appeal for settlement of the soft coal miners' strike. William Green, international secretary of the United Mine Work ers, todiy declared the only other alternative was "disaster and defeat for the miners' organization." "We could have whipped the coal operators, but we could not if we had wanted to whip the strongest govern ment on ' earth-our government which had Just finished whipping Germany. "If we had not accepted President Wilson's proposal of settlement the powers of the federal government would have been turne loose on us with greater ferocity than anything we have ever seen," Green contin ued. "We knew we had reached the limit," he asserted as the delegates with loud applause and cheering voiced approval of what he said. "With every mining community in the country honeycombed with fed eral agents, gathering evidence against our men, our funds tied up and women and children freezing and facing starvation, how in the name of God could we go on with the strike"? Green continued. Green's speech followed an attempt on the part of some of the delegates, led by Robert H. Harlin, president of the Washington miners, to defeat the purpose of the motion by Philip H. Murray of Pennsylvania, to approve the actions of the officers, by requir ing the award which is to be made by the president's commission to be sub mitted to a referendum vote, or a reconvened convention of the United Mine Workers. Secretary Green and Acting Presi dent Lewis warned the delegates that to do otherwise than accept tho pro posal would not be keeping faith with the president's proposal and that the commission might not make any award If the miners should decide to reserve the right to a referendum on the commission's findings. Lewis ruled Harlin's amendment out of order. Lewis will address the convention tomorrow and then the convention will vote on the motion to affirm the action of the officers. It was made clear to the delegates that officers of the international or ganization, the international execu tive board and the. scale committee have already accepted the proposal after being convinced of the futility of carrying on a fight which they declared had resolved Itself into one "against the government and not against the coal operators." Green Scores Garfield. Green scored former Fuel Adminis trator Garfield. "After Dr. Garfield got mad and quit his Job because he did not like the president's proposal, I knew we had made no mistake in accepting it," Green 'said. Secretary Green expressed confi dence in the commission. He said he believed it would settle many local controversies. The award of the commission, he said, would furnish the basis for the wage agreement which would finally be negotiated through collective bar gaining between a Joint scale confer ence of miners and operators. Green charged former Fuel Admin istrator Garfield had been "serving 1 tne operators rauntuiiy and well." "I do not believe he would have resigned unless he had seen dynamite in this proposal," he continued. Green said he hoped the commis sion, which now has all the powers of the former fuel administration, would find the rroflts of the oper ators were so high that they could grant a further increase without in creasing the price of coal. President Harlin of Washington charged tho federal government with having acted in bad faith since the strike settlement was agreed to in not enforcing upon the operators compliance with the terms under which the mei were to return to work. Men were locked out In his state, he slid, and he quoted tele grams from Attorney-General Palmer saying the government did not have the organization with which to han dle local conditions. Harlin said he had asked Palmer why the govern ment did not use the same machinery which was used against the miners in applying the Lever act to the operat ors of his state. International officers told Harlin these conditions would be taken up with the president's commission next week. Women's Building Fund Gets $100. NORTH BEND, Or.. Jan. . (Spe cial.)

ROGUE CLOSING FOUGHT Curry County Residents Stirred by Proposed Legislation. MARSHFIELD, Or.. Jan. 6. (Spe cial.)
