that the JapaneKe were in favor of a
separate conference on Far Kaatern
questions in London, chiefly because it
would not appear to Japanese public
opinion to be much different from the
Anclo-Japanese conversation** which
bad been rains on there It Is the
transference of the discussion from
London to Washington which irks the
Japanese.
President Harding will insist upon
an• all-inclusive conference. Both he
and secretary Hughes see little good
in a conference on armaments which
«loes not enter into the reasons for
the continued maintenance or an im

building The American government
is trying so get practical results out
of the biff conference next fall, and

Organized Bands Are Smug
gling Chinese in From
Cuba to Florida
TAMI'A, Fla.—Chinese are being
smuggled Into the United States on a
large scale by way of Cuba and
Florida.
Unless prompt sctlon Is taken by
authorities at Washington, conditions
will soon be as bad here as they were
on the Mexican border, where It took
five years to stamp it out.
These are the statements of Immi
gration Inspector Whalen of this dis
trict, In whose territory much of the
smuggling has been going on. He has
asked for aid.
"We have learned that within the
past few months almoet 75,000 Chi
nese have been landed In Cuba," says
Whalen. "According to the state
ments we got from some of the smug
gling parties that we have rounded
up, these Chinese remain In Cuba only
long enough to make arrangements
with the smugglers to be landed on
the Florida coast.
"The fact that all the Chinese who
have been arrested in this vicinity are
plentifully supplied with monev and
are able to obtain unlimited funds to
defray court expenses indicates that
there is a well organized smuggling
combine at work."
The latest arrests In ths smuggling
war were In Charleston, S. C„ where
four Chinese were picked up, with
railroad tickets from Clearwater, Fla.
a short distance from Tampa to
Washington, D C. Six more were ar
rested ths same day at Duneden Fla
*l®° near Tampa. These six were
taken when they tried to buy railroad
tickets to Washington. They were es.
corted by a Chinese who had taken
out naturalization papers. This man
was later released on bail.
A month or two ago federal prohi
bition officers while in search of con
traband liquor coming Into Tampa
from Cuba, boarded a small schooner
and found, in addition to 2,500 quarts
of whiskey seventeen Chinese hiding
in tne hold.
The coast of Florida Is an ideal
place for smuggling operations, as
there are only a few places along the
entire 1,400 miles of coast line where
schooners can not make an easy land.
Ing. Immigration officials, Whalen
qiolnts out, are greatly hampered in

"I have only three men to guard
several hundred miles of shore line In
my district," says Whalen. "Unless
we get help, the situation Is likely to
get beyond our control." y

HARDING GIVES CLEVELAND BANKER JOB OF
CLEARING RAIL LOG-JAM
WASHINGTON. —The Job of breaking the railroad log-jam, In an
effort to clear the nation’s distribution channels for a normal re
sumption of business and Industry, has been delegated by President
Harding to Fred H. Goff, of Cleveland.
Although Goff’s labors will be
FRED H. GOFF
Hoover, as adviser in commercial conditions, affected by any settle
ment, and Mellon as adviser, in necessary funding and financing, were
directed to co-operate wtih Goff.
The size of the Job ahead of this 63-year-old Cleveland banker may
be understood when it is realized that disputed claims amounting to
more than i billion dollars must be composed before a settlement can
be reached.
The government has claims against the roads for *774,537,000 spent
during the period of federal control for new trackage, terminals and
equipment. This sum represents new capital, which 'he government
has contended should be used as an offset to what the government owes
th roads for rental and guarantees.
The railroads contend the government owes them, on account of ren
tals. guarantees, undermalr.tenance, etc., between *1,200,000,000 and
*1,500,000,000.
The roads maintain they can pot now finance, by new issues of stock,
the three-quarter of u billion owing the government on capital account,
and that the deduction of that sum from the government's payments is
equivalent to attempting to meet these heavy new capital charges out
of current earnings
On the other hand, the director general of railroads, James C. Davis,
contends that ne roads In presenting their bills for final settlement have
padded them with hundreds of millions in claims that can not be sup
ported. In settlements with about 60 Class One roads, the amount
paid was only about 40 per cent of the amount originally claimed as due.
Specifically, 44 roads filed claims of *06.621,801, but accepted in settle
ment *42,286.914. or 43.6 per cent of the amount. Settlement Is still
pending, however, with about 100 Class One roads, and some 200 short
line and terminal roads.
WILL RECOMMEND FUNDING
OF GOVERNMENT INVESTMENT
One o( the first things Goff will recommend for the relief of the
rahroad situation will be the funding, for a period of 10 years, of the
J7T4.000.000 capital investment made by the government in the roads.
This would relieve the roads of the necessity of hunting for private
capital to cover this investment, and would mean that the total of un
paid rentals and guarantees owing the roads would be paid. This, he
declare*, would give the roads cash with which to meet outstanding bills
to get busy Improving run-down roads beds and repairing defective
equipment. It would start steel mills and railroad supply shops give an
upward impetus to employment and set the whole industrial 'machine
moving as no other single farce could.
A second «tcp in Ooffs negotiations will be to Induce railroad execu
tives to get together on the nature of the claims to be incorporated In
their bills to the government. Bills already presented have varied wide
ly In the nature of the Items charged, If an agreed formula could be
followed the auditing ar.d settlement of the claims could be expedited
HOLDS PAYMENT DUE
FOR UNDERMAINTENANCE
Goff will champion the railroad position that large sums are due for
undermaintenance of the lines during the period of federal control. The
policy followed was to spend on maintenance on each road the average of
the sums spent by the roads, under private control, during the three
years preceding government operation.
"The proper basis for maintenance. " Goff says, "wou'd be the laying
of an equal number of ties or an equal amount of new track. During
the war period maintenance costs, as did everything else, doubled and
tripled An equal expenditure would give lues ihan half the actual
maintenance the government agreed to perform"
ki attempting to bring th* government and the railroads together In
a quick settlement of their differences Goff is following n lint of public
work In which he already has achieved distinction. It was he who after
years of wrangling and fighting, brought about an agreement in the
Cleveland street railway dispute, fixing a value of $55 a ihare for
the stock of the o'd Cleveland Klectrlc Railway and making poselbla the
reorganisation which gave Cleveland car fare at cost, which for many
years, was tljree cent*
As president of the Cleveland Trust Company, he Is Intimately familiar
with the financing difficulties the roads now face. and 0 f the !o-g train
of industrial and bualneas hardships which are more or less the result
of the railways' plight.
Thi* knowledge, coupled with hi* ability as a mediator and his clear
conception of the public Inters! at all times should bring to his support
In any settlement he may ultimately recommend. President Harding be
lieves. forces that would make an agreement certain.

seaplane which Chief Hill was pilot

entirely unofficial, his assignment
to the job was with the knowledge
and approval of Secretaries Hoover
and Mellon and much of his work
will be In co-operation with these
two cabinet heads.
In reality Goff’e Job Is that of a
mediator. He must find some com-:
mon ground on which the govern
ment and the railroad executives
can agree In respect to claims aris
ing out of the period of federal rail
way operation. He has no power
to coerce, but full power to nego
tiate.
Goff’s selection as mediator In
the railway settlement, represent
ing the president, was the result of
the forceful and thoroughgoing
way in which, at the recent White
House dinner to western bankers,
he pictured the government’s fail
ure to effect a settlement with ths
roads as the biggest single barriel
to a revival of business. His pre
sentation of the case so Impressed
Harding that he was asked to un
dertake the hastening of a settle
ment through negotia'le'.f /ith th>
director general of railways, the
Interstate commerce commission
and the executives of the various
roads.
