TROOPS GUARD TEXTILE MILL FROM STRIKERS Plant Will Attempt to Reopen With Nonunion Workers. F'i T „,uif Frfsn MARION, N, C , Aug. 20.—With I National Guard units from Ashe- i ville and Morgantown standing by j to prevent disorders, officials of the 1 Clinchfleld Manufacturing Company ! planned to reopen their cotton mill j inis afternoon despite a thorough picketing of the plant by some 600 striking workers. A similar effort Monday resulted in a skirmish between strikers and nonunion workers at f*ie mill gate. Two companies of guardsmen were called in. mill officials decided in defer the opening of the plant and strikers appeared to be attempting to avoid any onen violence. Ask 10-Hour Ray At a mass meeting Monday night E. J. Wicker of Raleigh, vice-presi-dent of the North Carolina Federation of Labor, advised the strikers In permit nonunion workers to return to the. mill and other speakers urged against a test, of physical strength with either the men who wanted to return to work or the guardsmen. Albert L. Hoffman, organizer for the United Texiile Workers Union, war oik of those who addressed the •Hikers. He urged that no violence be used. The strikers arc demanding the j present wage '-rale with a. ten-hour I day and reinstatement of workers j allegedly discharged because of their ! union membership. The strikers say 1 th ■ present schedule calls for a w< rkday of twelve hours. After the deadlock at the mill l es Monday the only other untoward incident of the day was an encounter which resulted in the arrest of four nonunion workers for j an assault upon a union man, { Clarence Sexton. Sexton suffered a slight knife cut across the shoulder. Disturbance af Gate The disturbance at, the gates oc- , eurred when between 200 and 300 nounion men gathered to go to ! work. Massed at the gates were some | 600 strikers. •Jud.tje N. A. Townsend, executive counsel of Governor Max Gardner, oidered the gates opened and the strikers refused. A party of mill officials, attempting lo lead the way through the gates, was repulsed by the strikers. A threat, of national guard intervention had no effect. T‘ was decided to postpone the mil! opening and the guardsmen v err summoned.

EXPERTS FAIL TO AGREE ON
DEBT VALUES Reparations Conference Deadlock Hopeless After Long Session. BY FREDERICK KUH United Press Staff Correspondent THE HAGUE. Aug. 20.—Hopes of saving the reparations conference as Ia result of the treasury experts’ efforts to establish the value of the | compromise offer of France. Italy. ! Belgium and Japan to Great Britain ! was virtually shattered early today. After working until 1 a. m., the experts admitted their final report would constitute a complete inability to agree in the value of the fourpower offer. The experts from each , nation insisted on an entirely different figure. It was admitted the value of the four-power offer was generally placed at a higher figure than the English at, first insisted on construing it, but it is not believed to be sufficient to result in acceptance by Philip Snowden, British chancellor of the exchequer. Germans Propose Protocol The German delegation to the j conference, fearing the conference might expire without Foreign Min- j ister Gustave Stresemann reaping; any tangible fruits to carry back to Berlin, was expected today to propose a protocol to be signed by all of the nations participating in the conference, in which Germany and the former allies would proclaim adherence to and acceptance of the Young plan. Signature of the protocol would further enumerate the points which ! still must be settled, according to j the German idea, and announce the subcommittees remaining at the 1 Hague to finish the task. This j protocol is envisioned by the Ger- j mans as climaxing the conference, j which is expected to terminate 1 Saturday, and is intended to serve a two-fold purpose. First it would show the world audience the conference is not j fruitless and save the statesmen as- , sembled here lor nearly three weeks from the humiliation of returning home without their tasks accomplished. Second, it would enable the German nation to declare the Young plan, owing to the government's ac- J ceptance, is effective Sept. 1, hence j after that date Germany would in- | sist on paying only the lower Young j plan reparations instead of the j Dawes plan payments. Would Continue Control The Germans suggest that pend- j mg the ratification of the Young j plan by the various parliaments, j S. Parker Gilbert, American agent j general for reparations, continue to i administer operation of reparations j machinery. The German project for the j termination of the conference is | likely to encounter stiff opposition j from the powers which hope to ex- ! act the larger Dawes plan repara- j tions payments from Germany until! the Young plan is ratified several j months hence. But Germany may j insist upon this concession as a j compensation for her subordination | of German interests to the financial quarrel between Great Britain and ;

her former allies throughout the duration of the conference. French Premier Aristide Briand and Stresemann are reported to have engaged in a stormy hour’s conference Monday afternoon because Briand refused to keep his pledge of last Saturday to tell Stresemann the tentative date for the French evacuation of the Rhineland.
