PARIS CONFAB
Calculations Are Started By
Experts Preparatory to
More Negotiations
Divergent Opinions Between
German and Allied Del
egates Yet Held
PARIS, May 27 (AP) Tech
nicians worked through the night
on computations that the experts
on the reparations conference to
morrow may use them to give new
lite to the negotiations.
"Owen D. Young and his staff
today gave new rigor to the com
mittee, which was considered
moribund at the end of last week,
by examining with other experts a
new possibility of a way out of
the deadlock between the Germans
; and the allies.
1 1 The operation most favored
takes the form of new calcula
tions as to what the annuities
originally proposed by Mr. Young
would yield if they began at other
dates than April 1, 1929. which
was the basis for the original cal
culations. The experts tonight
would not reveal what the new
da tea were.
The creditor experts still in
sist that payments under the
Dawes plan ought to continue at
least until the end of this year.
Dr. HJalmar Schacht holds to his
demand that they cease with
April 1929.
The difference in actual pay
ments between the two points of
view would be about 630,000,000
marks (approximately $151,200,
000). The creditors relied on this
additional sum to enable them to
agree on a repartition of pay
ments among themselves which
would permit acceptance of the
Young annuities.
Since Dr. Schacht rejects this
view, it is necessary to find some
way of reconciling the divergent
opinions.

near the state hospital grounds.
The commission pointed out in its
recommendation to the city
council that the proposal was
contrary to the plan whereby
cones are uniform on both sides
of the street and extend to the
middle of the block. In this case,
the change was asked for one lot
only.
The commission authorized ap

draft the ordinance designed to
permit High street property own
ers to install an ornamental light
ing system. The ordinance was
drafted originally by the commis
sion, amended and passed by the
council, and .then at the commis
sion's request, vetoed by Mayor
Llvesley because of the .amend
ments. The commission will send a no

erty Is contrary to the toning or

Paul Mallon Says He Won't
Tell Source of Much
Talked Roll Call
WASHINGTON, May 27. (AP)
The senate rules committee
sought vainly today to find the
source of the information of the
published roll call purporting to
show the vote on confirmation of
Irvine Lenroot as a federal Judge
and then called a meeting for to
morrow to consider the many pro
posals for open sessions during
consideration of executive nomin
ations by the senate.
Paul Mallon, a reporter for the
United Press, who was one of the
newspapermen publishing the pur
ported Lenroot roll call, declined
under questioning to disclose the
source of his information on
which the roll call was based.
Executive Session !
Follows Inquiry
Chairman Moses called an ex
ecutive session after the brief ex- j
amination of Mallon. There was j
no Indication that the committee !
would call other newspapermen or
that any action was in contempla
tion against Mallon for his refus
al to answer some of the commit
tee's questions. After the brief
executive session. Senator Moses
made the following announcement
in the senate:
"It Is the plain concensus of
the committee that as a conse
quence of the episode two results
have followed. One is that which
took place resulting in the barring
of representatives of the press as
sociations from the floor of the
senate. The other is an inevitable
amendment to the rules of the
senate regarding executive ses
sions." Put under oath, Mallon re
plied "I must respectfully decline
to answer" after being asked on
what Information he bad based
his purported roll call.
Stage Offers, Presents, for
Fliers Who Broke All
Endurance Marks
FORT WORTH. Tex., May 27.
(AP) Reg. L. Robbins and
James Kelly today began to reap
some of the rewards in store for
them as the new holders of the
world's endurance flight reeord.
Rested by a long sleep after
completing 172 hours, 32 minutes,
second of continuous flight in
their single motored monoplane
Fort Worth, the air men awoke
today to find presents and lucra
tive offers pouring in on them.
The acclaim and bids for their
services were in sharp contrast
with the little aid the former rail
road mechanic and the erstwhile
eowpuncher received in preparing
for the endurance test.
Scores of offers for vaudevile
engagements, newspaper and mag
azine articles on the flight and
various positions with alreraft
concerns were received.
Plan to Make
"Barnstorming Tour"
Robbins and Kelly had not de
cided what course to follow, but
friends express the belief that
they would go on an aerial "barn
storming tour."
A representative of the Mahon-
ey-Ryan Aircraft corporation of
St. Louis arrived with word that
a new Ryan plane with a Wright
whirlwind motor would be pre
sented to the fliers In recognition
of their reeord smashing cruise In
the Fort Worth, a rebuilt Ryan
plane.
Robbins and Kelly will receive
15,600 each from the Fort Worth
association of commerce and $,-
000 will be divided between K. K.
Hoffman and H. 8. Jones, who re
fueled the endurance ship during
Its flight of more than seven days
wbieh ended Sunday afternoon.
Approximately 32.000.wUl be

Among his ideas of how it is to

This particular phase of the

While her resignation has not

private law practice. For, some
time she has had under consider

Mrs. Willebrandt is enroute to
Waco, Texas, to accept a degree
from Baylor university, and the
expectations Is that she will form
ally tender ber resignation soon
after her return and take up law
practice in the east, although her
home is in California.
Friends f Mrs. Willebrandt.
who frequently has held the spot
light of publicity both fa connec
tion with prohibition cases and
polities, said she had wanted to
retire at the end of the CooUdge
administration, but bad consented
to continue in office because of
the rather large number ef
changes In the high personnel of
the department of Justice which
had to be made after the change
of administration.
Since last March 4 general hat
wholly unconfirmed reports have
been that Mrs. Willebrandt was
not wholly satisfied with her own
