VlllCTON,
Dec. 28.-Preident
tiie to call an international economic
and armament limitations conference.
The president declared that the pas--jge
of the llorah resolution was unde
sirahlr "because of the Nast impression
which ma be conc)ed to Europe and
cNcn more undesirable becau-e of the
wrong imiression it conC)$ to our own
people."
RLVCNLS rOsITION IN LtTTEK
His position was reealed in a let
ter to bender Lodge, adminilrati.n
lcailer in the Senate, which Lodge read
in the Senate when it met todd).
It would be futile to call 'uch a con
f mice a proKsed b) llorah until the
executue had learned whether such a
moe would be welcomed b the other
nations, Mr. Harding said.
If Congress decides lo be hostile in
the present situation, he said, it should
modif) the law which prevents American
representation on the Reparations Cora-mis-ion
and prohibition of American
Dutch commissions from granting more
liberal funding terms to America's
World War debtars.
A s-ttlemcnt of the reparations ques
lion "must underlie any economic re-
habituation of Europe." Mr. Harding
said, but he emphatically declared that
the Lnited States should never say to
one nation what it should pay or to
another what it should accept.

Rome, Dei 23. One of the worst ex
pedient by aut -cratlc Italian cabinets a
recent years was tlie so-called decreo
laws. These laws, called royal decrees,
were i-sued by the cabinet over lin
king' signature and applied immediate!).
Sub-cquenll) perhaps years. later they
were submitted to Parliament and ap
proved. This constituted a virtual dic-
ifatorship and Ital)'s submisiion to tho
Fascisti dictatorship can be understood
lif it is rememliered that the Chamber of
fDepul ic in war and peace submitted
to cabinet dictatorship.
Tlu's habit became so general that
scarcely one-third of Italy's laws have
Isn -oted uiion. Now- a proposal is be-
forp ,ne Senate t regulate the u-e of
decree laws. Senator Scialoja, an au-
thority on constitutional law, has con-
