Owen D. Vrnin; today received a not.) from the state department throuch tiie American embassy, the contents of which were strictly withheld. Lor that reason the note was supposed by oliservers at the. conference headquarters to relate to discussion of reduction of the American share in payments by Germany for the cost of oecupatoni of the niiinelaiid.

M. Lmile Morcau of the French delegation Sir Josiah Stamp of the deh gation were ihe chief speakers. Aljoslute secrecy as to the figures and the content of their debate to which the experts pledged them selves, was taken here as confirming: pessimistic deductions made in circles closo to the committee. When asked for their impressions of Dr. S' hacht's proposals, individual members of Ihe committee merely said that they had none to give.

The fact that Youiifc. American representative and chairman of the com-niivite, was invited specially to nit the body headed by Lord Uitcl-stoko was reg-arded as bearing out suppositions that some delicate, si illful treatment, would be necessary to the conference from breaking down. doling On (Jommittee.

I '-nl Staff HARR1SBURG. April 17. The House today defeated an effort to recommit the Brandt annexation bill and passed it on second reading. The motion was offered by Representative Richards of Lawrence county, who contended the bill Is in conflict with the Weingartner bill. Representative Joseph Marcus and James H.

McCIur- defended the measure. The Brandt bill requires that annexation of any part of a township must be on a majority vote of the entire township. It Is said that more populous sections of townships have born developed at the cost of the entire township and therefore the entire township should have a voice in deciding an annexation. The bill has a vital bearing on a number of sections of Allegheny county. Proposed Debt Kepudi ition hy Labor Party Throws lllder Parties In Accord.

Schantz, president pro tempore of the Senate, an $S01 claim for expenses incurred in attending the convention of the American Legislators' Association at Seattle, last July.

I M'NARY CARRIES POINT Leaders Among Representatives Sharpen Knives To Kill Provision. WASHINGTON. April 17. possibility of a breach betsvten tho Senate and House on the incorporation of the export debenture plan into the farm relief bill wan heightened today when the Senate agriculture eotvtmiUca authorized Chairman McN'ary to include the debenture idea tentatively In the lull he ill introduce tomorrow-. Senator McN'ary was given this authority with the understanding that the measure would be referred to the committee for further study over the week-end.

It is the intention of the committee to complete work on a tentative draft of tiie de-i benture section and to report out its bill for discussion in the Senate beginning: Monday. I As tentatively agreed upon, the Senate bill would srive the proposed farm board authority to invoke the I debenture plan when requested by co-operative marketing associations of any crop to do so and when the board considers the recommen JaMous of the associations sound, otherwise, I the Senate bill is practically too same as that already before ihe i House. Heading for Di-ficultics. I The decision of the Senate cui.i-j mi! tee to permit the reporting of a bill containing the debenture plan provided additional evidence that the Senate and House arc heading for difficulties in tnc enactment of a farm bill. House leaders have pro-dieted that the debenture plan would fail on their side of tho capltol and Ihey are preparing- to sdrilte it of the farm measure should it come over from the Senate on the point of order that it constitutes revenue raising and therefore must tutionally orientate in the House.

This plan was disclosed by Representative Snell of New York, one of ihe House administration leaders. after a conference today with President Hoover at the White House, Snell's contention that the Senate had no right to initiate the debenture plan was disputed, however, by Senate leaders, including Chairman McN'ary and Senator Borah, who said they were inclined to believe that, the Senate would be fully within its rights in adding a debenture section to the bill. The failure of President Hoover to send any word to Hie Senate committee regarding the debenture proposal and his failure to discuss it, in his message yesterday has been taken by some leaders in Congress to indicat- that he would oppose it. The opinion in some quarters is that the President intends to rely mainly upon the House to enact the kind 1 of farm bill he desires. (uiell.v Seeking Recruits.

Some of those interested in tin farm question in the Senate, however, take the stand that Mr. Hoover would not veto the farm bill if it contained the debenture proposal and in the absence of any specific information to the contrary have been quietly working at enlarging the. Senate support for it which will be needed when voting time comes. Actual discussion of the farm bill is expected to begin in the House tomorrow but the Senate expects to recess over tho week-end and will not begin its work until Monday. Tho prediction on the House side is that the farm measure will be out of tho way by the end of next week at the, latest, but on the Senate side It very likely wiil take somewhat longer.

April 17. lor the purpose of preMlrg- his candidacy for the solicitor generalship, John O. Buchanan of Pittsburgh came to Washington toJay and conferred with Senator David A. Reed, his sponsor. Support for Buchanan within the Pennsylvania congressional dr-leraMon is noti'-eably on the increase.

In department of justice circles it is h-arned that the only thlnq: standing in the way of his nomination is Ins place of residence, since it hua been pointed out that both Secretary of the Treasury Mellon and Secretary of Iibor Davis are residents of Pittsburgh as is former representative John M. Mot in. who yesterday was nominated for membership on th employes1 compensation commission.

The President is understood to hive informed a senator from a southern state that the leal record of his candidate is not of sufficient caliber to qualify him for the post which, if true, strencthens Buchanan's chances for appointment, his backers assort.
