The conference with Mr. Hays, gen erally interpreted as conclusive evi dence that the republican national chairman is to become a member of the cabinet, is understood to have covered every feature of the cabinet situation, as well as questions fcf policy. The president-elect said their talk omitted none of the problems lacing the next administration.

STATUS CHANGE-IS ASKED member of the Morgan banking firm and a fiscal attache of the peace commission. In a statement later he denied recent btories of a mysterious agreement to wipe the war debt off the books, and said he had assured the president-elect his administration would be "as free and untrammeled as air" in dealing with the question. Mr. Lamont's statement attracted attention because bf his intimate '"v. ..l.nowiedge of the Versailles negotia tions and because his firm is the prin cipal fiscal agent in this country for tne debtor powers. Mr. Harding is understood to have discussed with tim his own proposal for converting the debts into negotiable paper.

The statement of Mr. Lamont who' came at Mr. Harding's invitation, fol lows: "I found that President-elect Hard ing wished to ask me about certain pnases of the international financial situation which had come under my observation during my attendance at the peace conference at Paris in 191!. I found, too. that Senator Harding his been giving serious thought to the situation, and 1 may say that his T.ew is both sane and reassuring. He began by disclaiming any ability as a financier, but I must say that man; of his suggestions were practical and showed the result of careful, cool and (nendly aqalysis. "1 was able to assure the president elect that there is no truth in the statement being repeated that at the peace conference there was some secret understanding between Presi dent Wilson and his advisers and the Trench and British representatives. "It is on!y fair to say that from tart to finish President Wilson and his advisers opposed vigorously and f.nally any such suggestion of can cellation of the allies' indebtedness to the I'nited states. "The president-elect showed a keen Interest in the whole situation and from his expressions I gained the idea that when the time comes for dealing with the questions, he intended to handle them with an eye to the wel fare of the United States and in a large sense of the world generally. outset it referred to the coming con ferences to be held in London and attended by the representatives of ail ed nations, Germany and Turkey I earnestly trust," said King George, that by this means further progress may be made in giving effect to treaties of peace in re-establishing concord in Europe and restoring tranquillity In the near east King George expressed himself 83 favorably disposed toward a commer cial treaty with soviet Russia, saying: "It is my hope that negotiations for trade agreement with Russia also be brought to a successful con tusion." King George announced the "de termination of the government to re duce expenditures to the lowest level consistent with the well-being of the empire, and he stated a bill would be presented dealing "with the sale of alcoholic liquor in the light of ex perience gained during the war." ''Bills to Be Submitted. Bills would be submitted, he said. for reorganization .of the railways of Great Britain, completion of land purchase In Ireland, and facilitating a church union in Scotland. Regarding the dominions, the king said he prayed that the assumption by his subjects in India of their new political responsibilities would secure a progressive administration and an early appeasement of political strife. The policy regarding Egypt, follow ing investigation of the special mis sion sent there, he declared, would be laid before the members of parlia ment. The king said arranrements had been made to renew personal con sultations between his home and overseas ministers. Petition for Permission to Stay In Conntry Indefinitely Given to State Department.

Senator Rational Figure. This fight on Senator Chamberlain has been considerable of a surprise to his friends, because business men and political leaders in other states having candidates tor the shipping board have communicated to Mr. Harding's advisors their earnest de sire to se the Oregon man placed on the shipping board, whatever might be th effect upon their home candi dates. It is argued in Senator Cham berlain's behalf that he is a national figure, rising far above Petty selfish ness, and that he may be expected to administer the work not from any parochial viewpoint, but from the Standpoint of what is best for the na tion as a whole and for the country's merchant marine. , FLORIDA liATEO BY BAHAMA LIQUOR Flood Comes From Islands in ' Veritable Tidal Wave.

The premier announced in the house of commons that the decision not to publish the report of Jlajor-General Strickland Lad' been made in the in terest of the re-establiahment of law and order in Ireland. ilr. Lloyd George explained that . there was enough in the report to sat'sfy the government that there had been acts in violation of disci pline, but It was Impossible to iden tify the ind'viduals responsible. The sternest action had been taken, how ever, with reference to the company involved. Seven men, suspected of violating discipline, had been dis missed, the officer commanding had been suspended and the company dis solved. The premier said the report was not really a report by General Strick land, but simply dealt with occur rences and was made to Inform the government. The premier's statement brought cries from the labor benches that the civilian evidence had not been called, but Mr. Lloyd George declared It was not true and added: "Furthermore certain civilians of t;rk from whom the government Is anxious to have evidence, have fled to America."

It is believed that the northwest will have to be satisfied with one place on the shipping board and with that going to Senator Chamberlain, the other Pacific coast commissioner is expected to be a California man. Seattle has made a heroic fight In the last two weeks for a Washington man on the shipping board and has carried on a very clever contest against Senator' Chamberlain. leading the president-elect to believe for awhile, it is said, that Oregon was divided as between Senator Chamber lain and Joseph N. Teal. Another cunning bit of strategy employed in the last few days by Seattle, it is said, was to send telegrams to St. Augustine indorsing Mr. Teal. Jv.st how far these telegrams got Is not known, but Mr. Harding has been informed that there is no breach in the Oregon support of Mr. Cham berlain. He has been advised that Mr. Teal himself is supporting the senator.

De velopment of "Niagara Falls water power as a national asset" on a gl eantic plan that would assign all water power privileges to one in dividual or corporation, thus elimi nating grants to various smaller in terests, is urged in various recom mendatons now before the federal power commission suits of clothes and a Jewel case. Although agreeing generally that a comprehensive system of develop ment should be adopted, the recom mendations vary greatly as to the nature of the development. In approv ing any grants the members of the present commission. Secretaries Baker. Payne and Meredith, are Inclined to anticipate development of methods In the near future that will permit the transporting economically of power to points 500 miles or more from the falls. Experts have told the commlsson that the "single assignment" plan should include assignment of water power privileges below the falls as well as those above. Plans to com bine the several hundred thousand taken from the gorge the fails into one project were pre sented. The plans range from tunnel ing under Goat island, which hangs on the precipice between the Ameri can and Canadian falls, to digging a power and ship canal from Lake Erie to Lake Ontario. Proponents of some of the proposed projects claim that the government could tax such development a half million a year and still give users cheaper power than they now enjoy and leave a profit for the corporation on the investment. Secretary Baker, chairman of the commission, has an nounced that no privileges anticipat ing future amendments tothe exist ing water diversion treaty with Can ada will be considered by the present commission.
