Havre, France, March 1!).—"I hope tlmt my visit to the United States \fi\\ remove uny miNunderstnndinR.s between America and France that mny have been created by pro papa ndiSts who have been chnrKins France with militarism."
This declaration was made here today hy former I'romler Reno Vlvlanl, who will .sail for New York tonisht.
M. Vlvlanl save no Indication that he would dIsciis.H either the Loapruo of Na¬ tions or the French war debt.
I have replied to A. O. R. nrcy\<n. secretary of the em¬ ployers' a.ssoclatlon with headquartors at Mineola. that nothing can be done at this time to <'hanKe the wafte scale. Some of the union men process to Hee In tht! action of these two unions what will be done penerally throughout .Nas¬ sau County and Long Island. In other words they claim there will not be a reduc'tlon of waged. They take thl« stand on the ground that conditions do not warrant a cut in the dally wage now. They contend there is plenty of work und that It costs as much to live now as It ever did. These they maintain aif the two chief reasons for keeping w.iges ut the old scale.
Mr. Drown .liiys the contentions rais¬ ed In the replies of the two unions al¬ ready received ure true und that the builders were aware that such was the case even before the replies Were received. f ^^UTVH
One of these answers is from brick¬ layers' organization, controlled from the New York dl.strict- Offlcers of this union point out that they are under the lurlsolction of the New York district, thut they have an agreement with the New Tork and Long Island builders to work at 110 per day und thut cannot es¬ tablish two prices for their laVior in one juri.sdlctlon. hence their wugeii will rij. main at $10 a day for 1921.

"The buzzing of airplane motors," says Davis, "characterizes the hmm of my administration. The idea keeps the public alive to the fact that I'm running about us fast as the alrplanos."

President's Attitude
Not Announced, But
Seems That Way
Washington, March lfl.--Whlle I'resl- ilent Harding has not yvt iindeitaken any seHous di.scusslons of the peace situ¬ ation with Republican leaders of the Senate, there is widespread Ix-lief among them that conditions are so shaping that a separate peace between the I'nited States and (iermany will prove the only wfty out of the treaty tangle. Nothing definite will be doni? lit the lualter of shaping a program until it is seen what propositions the foreign envoys have lo offer. .M. Vivinni. the French representative, is, due lo arrive tn Washington before the opening ol the new Congress. He probably will be followed by representatives of other countries.
President Harding hlm.self ha.s em- phasized that he has not taken up seri¬ ously the treaty tangle with his erst- t*l>lle colleacuea on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee- He has. nevertheless, - dlscusaed (he |iitH*tion senatally and infermallr with **varal MMtors. and those with whom he i>as talked hare come away from the
White Hou.sc convinced that Harding will n,.VPi. i,-.f(nbmit the tr«taty, «-lther wilh the covenant or wilhoiii it, m- wilh oi without .\rlicle .\,
It is geneiall.N biljived in Wa>.liin«lon •hilt .M. VIviani i.s coming lo the I'nlleil .¦itales lo sMHftest lo President HardiiiK that the Srnate take the treaty ami rut if y it with aii.\ changes II sei-s (It, but ratify it in some way oi other, so as to preserve ,in outward s».'niblaiice al buist of the wartime .solidarity of tin- grreal powers
If M. Vlvlanl does make sonii- eon trete piopofvnis along thes'- lines, n. is the belief of ••» number nf influential Re- putllcun Senators Ihat tliey will be turned down al thi- White Hou/ie.
The status of the Knox resolution, de¬ claring an end to the state of war with Germany Is un.Hetlled. If will not be Introduced, however, until tliere is .some clariflcntion of the Rhine situation. ¦ While present indications make a separiite peate appear not ifnlikely, (here is no desire on the jiart of either the White House or the Senate fo pro. vide for Cermany any moral support by widening the Franronrltlsh-Ameri- can breach when ttiltitary maneuvers are again In progress.
The Knox resolution for the present has Nsen pigeon-holed. It may be pull*<l out st any time, or it may stay thera, depending upon (he turn of •v«>»ii«
