ALLIES SEEK TO INTERVENE
By the AssoclatesT Press
Paris. May 23. The Allied High
Commission In T'pper Silesia has sent
delegations to Intervene with both the
Germans nnd the Poles nnd endeavor
to obtain the cessation ot all military
operations In thnt territory, according
to French officihl dispatches today.
Each of th.e delegations is omfosed
of representatives' of France, Great
Britain and 'Italy:
In Frenen circles the situation 'is re
garded as most grave, following the
rPl1"""nr's4nthe front Grosstelnerj
totIpnaus-TCrempn, against the Polish
llnegrrhe Poles, according to French
Information, retired from tlie line, leav
ing the important Annnberg position In
the hnnds of the German volunteer
corps. This corps, the French dis
pntches sny, wns recruited largely In
Hamburg nnd Wurttemberg, with only
a smnll proportion of Slleslons In It.
The Germnn attack, 'although re
garded ns very serious. Is not considered
In French official circles as n ensus belli,
ns it wns carried out by Irregular forces.
It is thought here, from information re
ceived from Oppeln, that the German
officials are winking nt the netlon of
the volunteers. If they are not nctually
, encouraging it, Dut confidence in ex
pressed m the good faith of Chancellor
lrth, who Is regarded as sincerely en
denvorlng to prevent trouble.
The allied representatives In Berlin
will call on Chnnccllor Wirth today nnd
nsk him to close the Slleslan frontier
nnd tnke nil possible steps to prevent
intervention by other volunteer forces.
It ii not expected in official circles
here that the conference between Pre
mier Briand and Mr. Lloyd George, the
British Prime Minister, at Boulogne,
will occur before the end of the week.
This Is because Premier Brtnnd's pres
ence will be necessnry nt the sessions
nt the Senntc, to follow the debate in
the Chamber of Deputies on the Gov
ernment's forelcn policy.
The Senate, it is forecast? will dis
cuss the Ixindon agreement for the set
tlement with the Germnns In connec
tion with consideration of appropria
tions for reconstruction work.

Washington, Mny 23. It wns lenrned
at the State Department today thnt
George T. Surnmerlln. the Amerlcnn
Charge d'AfTnlrcs nt Mexico City, left
here' last night with the terms which
the Administration proposed to make
with Obregon as n condition of recog
nition. Thnt much of the story puh
llshed this mnrnlne Is true. The rest
of It, thnt President Harding nnd Sec
retary iiugnes nnve followed closely the
lines of the Fnll policy with regard ti
Mexico, seems to be a guess. Tills gues
is described on good authority ns not
entirely nccurnte.
The nub of the whole question is
whether or not the ndminlstrntlon in
sists upon the signing of a trenty or
protocol gunrnnteeing eertnin Amerlcnn
interests in Mexico as a condition of
recognition. Information on whether
Mr. Surnmerlln takes any such demnnd
with him or not Is refused. The pro
tocol or treaty wns the essence of the
Fnll policy. It is also the point nt
which Obregon sticks. He In represented
in willing to promise anything thl
Government wants, but not to sign such
nn agreement ns Mr. Fnll demnnded.
Signing this would. In the Mexico view,
derognte from the dignity of the coun
try nnd impair Its sovereignty. It Is
said that Obregon would collapse in
stantly If he, signed such a treaty.
Notes May Suffice
Indications here have been rlclit
nlong that Mr,, JIardtng and. Mr.
Hughes wouldnot; raqw .Secretary' To ii
,fn "the extrcmVr(MteN"nfM,-TtfHcyi
Mr. Hughes may have been won over to
the Fnll policy. The influences, bank
ing nnd otherwise, which nre supporting
Mr. Fnll. hnve nccess to nnd grertt
weight with the Administration. (In
the other hnnd. Mr. Hughes does not
rcndily change his position. And he Is
not likely to ndopt a policy which would
lend to the collapse of Obregon and the
uncertainties of another revolution in
Mexico. A rumor here Is that Mr,
Hughes will be content with an exchange
of notes, a sort of gcntlemnn's agree
ment, lnstend of n treaty.
Obregon's Administration exists upon
Mifferanre, his enemies, both conserva
tive nnd radical, preferring to let him
wrestle with the difficulty of relations
with America rather thnn. either one
of them, undertake the responsibility of
refusing to meet the United Stn'tes'
terms or of nccepting those terms.
Thus he continues In power with his
opponents wniting for him to mnke a
mistake which will enable them to take
over the Government.
The only salvation for him seems to
be to reach an ncreement with tin.
United States without nt the same time
making such conccuslons ns the Mexi
enn public will resent.
V. S. Cannot Walt
But the Hnrding Administration hns
no choice except to put up to Obregon
the troublesome question of renchins
nn understanding with the United
Stntes in the midst of his difficulties.
Nothing is gained by wniting. Obre
gon's position does not Improve. On
the contrnry. it grows worse, so much
so thnt there is danger of IiIh over
throw nnil a return to rcvolutinnnr
conditions in Mexico while this Gov",
eminent is waiting. Moreover, the pres

Then the President continued :
"The Republic will never forget the
sacrifices these men hnve made.
whether they He In the soil of the home
Innd or the crimsoned soli of the battle
field." Text of Hoboken Spoeeh
In his Hoboken address President
Harding said:
There grows on me the realization
of the nnusunl chnrncter of this occa
sion. Our Republic hns been nt war
before; it has nsked nud received the
supreme sacrifices of its sons and
ilnughters. nnil faith in America baa
been justified. Many sons and daugh
ters made the sublime offering and
went to hallowed graves as the Na
tion'n defenders.
But we never before (sent so many
to battle under the ting In foreign
Innd, never before wns there the Im
pressive spectacle of thousands of
dead returned to find ctemnl resting
place in the beloved hnnii-lnnd. The
incident is without nny parallel In
history that I know.
These deud know nothing of out
ccreiniuiy todny. They sense noth
ing of the sentiment or the tender
ness which bring their wnstcd bodies
to the homeland for burial, close to
kin nnil friends nnd cherished nsso
clntions. These poor bodies nre but
the clny tenements once possessed of
souls which flamed in patriotic de
votion, lighted new hopes on the bnt
tlegrounds of civilization and In their
sacrifices sped on to accuse autocracy
before the court of eternal justice.
Speaks Grateful Tribute
We nre not met for them, though
we love and honor nnd speak a grate
ful tribute. It would be futile to
speak to those who do not hear, or
to sorrow for those who cannot aenae
it, or to exalt those who cannot
know. But we can speak for coun
try, we can rench those who sorrow
and sacrificed through their service,
who suffered through their giving,
who glory with the Republic throug
their hemic achievements, who re
joice in the civilization their heroism
preserved.
Every funeral, every memorial,
every tribute Is for the living and
offering In compensation of sorrow.
When the light of life goes out there
is a new rndiance in eternity, and
somehow the glow of it relieves the
dnrkness which Is left behind.
Never n death, but somewhere a
new life, never a sacrifice, but some
where an atonement, never a service,
but somewhere and somehow an
achievement. These had served,
which is the supreme inspiration in
living. They have earned everlast
ing gratitude, which Is the supreme
solace In dying.
No one mny measure the vast and
varied affections and sorrows center-
