Situation "Calling for U. S. Advice 1st Daily Becoming More ling -By David Lawrence- ZJ ON EUROPE "Washington, Dec. 16. President Harding and hl cabinet have thus far been discussing: two broad phases of the European sit- F -U nation the atU- tude th unitea States Roverament should assume in the event that Franco and Great Britain request this country to me diate or arbitrate the dispute as to the amount of rep aration Germany should pay and the affirmative meas ure that should be taken on the initia tive of America to ease the - economic . burdens of Europe. ' The idea, of an international eco nomic conference to" be held in Wash ington shortly after the New "Year be- gins appeals strongly to the adminis tration. - which feels it. will make greater headway with American pub lic opinion in the long run If the con ference is held where all the jnoves and all the facts can be seen at first band. CABINET MT SESSION f ' But art economic conference is an ul- - tiraate and not an immediate step. The first problem is really .what shape t 'American advice shall take. For that's what Europa is asking for. Ambas- Ihador Harvey was appealed to in Lon on and . there is reason : to believe other power ' asked American; diplo matic representatives for guidance in other capitals. Th , cabinet here spent its Friday session, almost entirely discussing Just what America should advise. Deadlock of Allies So Acute That Harding Finds It Neces sary to Take Hand in Repara tions and Debt Disagreement Army Man ; Reports OnAstoria SENATE Washington, Dec. 16. (U. P.) President Harding today sought the counsel of his most trusted advisers as to the best means of intervention to prevent the approaching ; economic crash in Europe. It is understood the president feels encouraged by the favorable reaction in European capitals to the hews of America's determination to prevent, a collapse. : - In addition to frequent consultations with his cabinet, cable discussions with American ambassadors abroad and his forthcoming conference with Ambas sador George Harvey, the president will seek the advice of leading sen ators, including the irreconcilable in the treaty fight, and of prominent leaders in American thought. CHARGES POWCT President Harding has definitely abandoned his policy of isolation and is now engaged in momentous negotia tions with the allies designed to pull Europe out of its welter of chaos. These are leading up to definite ac tion which will be finally determined upon as soon as Ambassador Harvey arrives from London.
