* DEATH - KNELL OF OLYMPICS.

London, July 22. Disorderly Incidents," "Yollowing numerous dectatona"at-the: Olympic Games, are creating grave doubts among British Olympic correspondents as to whether Britain will ever again compelo. The Times Paris correspondent enumerates unsportsmanlike and some- times disgraceful scenes, of which, he states, the Americans have been the principal victims, although several other nations have cause for complaint. He alludes to the culminating case of the British boxer Mullin, who was allegedly fouled by a French boxer although the latter received the decision. Thereafter, all English speaking countrich, Britain, Amerlea, Canada, Australia and South Africa, Announced their intention to withdraw en bloc unless the decision was reversed. This was done, but the correspondent declares the fuct demonstrated that the Games exacerbate international bitter- nesses instead of soothing them.

The Times, in a lender, endorses this opinion and anticipates that Americans will share the British view and that the death-knel! of the Olymples has boun soundod.-Reuter,

THE LONDON CONFERENCE.

Mr. Ramsay Macdonald yesterday and to-day lengthiiy con- ferred with the chief allied delegates to the London Conference. Subsequently the Cabinet hold its weekly meeting which was nd- vanced by a day in view of the probability of the plenary scusion of the Conference being held tomorrow.

It was noticeabio to-day that M. Herrict was looking pale and tired, and upparently suffering from the strain.

The comments, of the French newspapers based on the long despatches of their correspondents, make clear that, according to views held in Parit, serious difficulties have arisen.

The difficulties are chiefly duo to the attitude of the bankers, notably the American bankers, towards the protocol drafted-by-the first commilltee, which they do not consider sufficiently secures Investors in the proposed loan of £10,000,000 to Germany. Even M. Herriot'a organ the Ere Nouvelle, joins the chorus of newspapers, declaring that the bankers are influenced by politicinus hostile to. the reparations commission and aiming to prevent France from re- taining her freedom of action in the event of German default.

The Mutin describes the diffealty as serious, almost tragic. It says that if M. Herriot refuses the bankers the guarantees they require, the Dawes plan will fall to the ground. If he agrees, it will ultimately mean the revision of the Treaty of Vervalleus.--Reuter.
