THE MORXIXG OREGOXIAX, TUTTRSDAT, JTJTT 21. 1921 P.' to;!- DPEN HOSTILITIES 111 SILESIA FEARED American Intervention Is Re , ; ported Sought GRAVE ANXIETY NOW FELT All Europe Apparently Conscious of Impending Disaster; Sanger to Allied Authority Seen. LONDOIf. July 20. (By the Asso ciated Press.) It was stated In authoritative quarters today that in formal suggestions have been made lor American Intervention in the upper Silesian trouble, which. It Is feared, will threaten open hostilities. The American government's policy with respect to the Silesian. and sim ilar disputes concerning- the fixation of boundaries, It is pointed out, has been one of non-intervention unless the situation was held to be such as to threaten an outoreak of hostilities. It is understood now that representa tions are being- made from certain quarters interested in the Sllesian situation that such a break Is an im mediate possibility. There seems good reason to believe that the menace to European peace, which it Is held the Silesian question presents, is the real cause for the postponement of further action on the Irish question and other matters of moment. The Silesian question, it Is stated. 1s causing- grave anxiety to all the governments of Europe. Important developments In this connection are expected within the next 48 hours. The British government is urging the Immediate convening of the su preme council to consider the compli cations caused by charges that the German protective organizations in the district are still functioning, con stituting a danger to allied authority, which have been followed by de mands, not only from France, that the allied forces there be increased. Such a meeting, however, has been opposed by the French on the ground that they considered nothing would result therefrom, in which case the situation would be rendered mate rially worse. It is understood In official quart srs that Great Britain considers the dis patch of more'troops to upper Silesia unnecessary and impossible, and that all the facts with regard to Silesia already are available for the supreme council. Lord Curzon, secretary for foreign affairs, recently sent a note to Paris suggesting that a meeting of the supreme council be held in Boulogne July 28. Prior to the dis patch of this note it is understood Lord Curzon held a conference with the French ambassador here, with regard to Silesia. Silesia has shoved every other in ternational topic Into the back ground." it was said in a usually well Informed quarter here today. "All Kuropean governmental heads are profoundly fearful of the conse quences if the match Is. touched It is impossible to say where the flames ' will extend." - COMMISSION CAULS FOR HELP More Allied Troops Declared deed ed in Silesia. PARTS. July 20. (By the Associ ' ated Press.) The British. Italian and French commissioners in upper Silesia have sent in a report in which they ' jointly demand that reinforcements be sent to the allied troops of occu pation, it was announced here today. This recommendation came almost simultaneously with the receipt of a note by the French foreign office from the British government in which Great Britain insisted there was no necessity for sending more troops Into the disturbed district. The note was in reply to the recent communi cation in which the French govern ment notified Great Britain that re inforcements were needed urgently. The British note reiterated de mand for the early convening of the allied supreme council. M. Briand has not yet replied to the British note. ARREST FOLLOWS RETURN -T. D. Randolph, Iteported.

C, July 20.-Secre-tarv of the Treasury Mellon has agreed to approve the China trade act sponsored by the Portland Cham ber ot Commerce, for separate legis lative action prior to and independent of the general revenue revision bill. In a letter to Secretary of Commerce Hoover the treasury head made this concession in response to an earnest appeal by Mr. Hoover. For some time it nan been rumorea that the finance committee of the senate, supported by the treasury de partment, would ask: that the -nina trade act be not enacted until the general revision measure was taken up, and that It be incorporated in that bill. Secretary of commerce Hoover argued that extra territorial conditions in China, combined with the big trade opportunities there and the positive advantage now enjoyed by other leading nationals over the Americans, warranted separate and immediate action. A determined fight Is now being made to get the China trade act out of the Judiciary committee or tne senate, where it has slumDerea lor more than two months despite all ar guments and appeals.
