Premier Said to Have Resigna-: tion Ready if Settlement Is Not Reached. London, March 3 The political crisis was reported in lobby circles today to be easier. Prime Minister Lloyd George was reported to have received firm assurances from his Unionist colleagues of their unabated confidence in him as head of the Coalition Government, coupled with the declaration that a majority of the Unionist Party were behind Some political writer expressed the opinion that the rank and file of the Unionists believe that to force the resignation of Sir George Younger, the Unionist leader, would react against the Unionists and that a split would be best avoided by "toeing the line." At the same time it was recognized that such.

a settlement would be only temporary and it was understood that the Premier desires to know before next Wednesday the date which some papers assert Mr. Lloyd George has fixed for his resignation if the crisis had not ended to his satisfaction what is the exact attitude of the Unionist leaders toward the small rebellious group in that party. Meanwhile, the Premier has gone to Chequers Court, his country home, for the week-end.

Ledger; Copyright, 1922.) London, March 3 The Genoa Conference which seems fated to encoun ter all sorts of difficulties has entered a religious cul de sac. Both Premier Lloyd George and M. Poincare forgot, in the intensity of their discussion at Boulogne, that by fixing April 10 for the session of the Conference they moved it into Holy There is every prospect, your correspondent learned today, that a sec ond postponement will be made due to this The postponement will be for only a few days sav a week out of respect to the Catholic nations, especially Italy. Were the conference held Am-il 10 delegates might find themselves in an em oa massing fix at Genoa, for the Italians believe in taking a complete holiday from Good Friday over Easter ounaay. Paris, March 3 As if by signal, the entire French-' press has decided -that it cannot see how the Genoa Conference posibly can take place April 10.

April 25 is the new date but this appears to be Just a suggestion and really based on nothing whatever. As a mater of fact the French still cling to the old thesis of before the. Boulogne conference and will undoubtedly endeavor to push the Genoa Conference as far into the future as possible. Two definite details "have arisen which the press does not upon which may cause official reconsideration of the date, April 10. First, Italy is not particularly pleased with the Lloyd George-Poincare choice, because the new Pope wishes to have special celebration of Holy Week this year.

"MENTALLY DEAD" SLAYER HANGSTODAY, FINAL PLEA FAILING Chicago, i March 3 Harvey M. Church, 21 years old, double murderer, sentenced, to be hanged today, continued to lay in what many medical men have termed a state of self-imposed hypnotic catalepsy, as his attorneys planned to avail themselves of three almost hopeless efforts to obtain a stay, and the sheriff announced his plan to carry out the execution at 4 p.m. with the helpless Church strapped in a chair.

Governor Small refused to interfere with the execution yesterday, but Church's attorneys still maintained hope for an eleventh-hour reprieve. Humanitarian grounds would form the basis for a writ of habeas corpus Bennison F. Bartel, one of Church's attorneys, said he would seek in Criminal Court today. The third and last hope was for the other attorney, Frank J. Tyrrell, to obtain a stay through a plea that the execution was not carried out wlthin'the 25-day limit after sentence.

Late last night Chureh moved slightly for the first time in many days. The- movement, turning slowly from his right to the left side, followed a visit of his sister in which she pleaded with her brother to open his eyes, recognize her, and make a farewell statement for his aged parents. Doctors watched Church intently as his sister knelt beside him, embraced and kissed him, for some indication that he was shamming. Church's slow, even breathing and steady pulse beat was unchanged, however, and the doctors reiterated expressions of opinion that the transformation' during hij five weeks' hunger strike had resulted In complete loss of mental and physical Control and that his mind probably has ceased to function.

London, March 3 (liy the Associated Press) In the resumption of debate on the Irish bill in committee stage in the House of Commons today the discussion was continued of Lord Hugh Cecil's amendment. This declares that in approving Article XII of the Anglo-Irish Treaty, relating to the Ulster boundary, the Uritish Government did not kited to agree to transfer the main area of any of the six counties of Northern Ireland to the territory of the Irish Free State, but agreed only to minor boundary adjustments. Ronald McNeill, Unionist member for the Canterbuiy Division of Kent, said this was the central point of objection to the measure, the provision in question being resented by many of the members as a breach of faith town id Northern Ireland on the part of the Government.

He quoted Michael Collins, head of the Irish Provisional Government, as having said that Sir Jimes Craig, the Ulster Premier, had been tricked by his own friends. This and other charges that Ulster had been tricked brought an interruption from Winston Churchill, Sec retary for the Colonies, who raid th statement that a promise had been given by the Prime Minister to I oi-lins and Griffith that the counties of Fermanagh, Tyrone and Londonderry would be handed over to Iheiii wus absolutely untrue and had been re peatedly denied.

His statement follows: "I know nothing of the bill introduced in the State Seriate having to do with the changes in the boundaries of certain Brooklyn districts; in fact, the matter ws never brought to my attention until I read it in the newspapers this morning.

It was signed by Chiche-rln, who pointed out the Soviets had been invited by the allies at Cannes to meet on March 8, therefore the delay to his mind is only a part of a bourgeoisie plot against the Soviets, or words to that effect, which I understand have had such unpleasant effect upon the allied statesmen as to make them consider they bad better have still further delay "In order to put the Soviets in their proper place." Still another reason is that President Millerand will be absent from France in April, inspecting the provinces In Africa.

This makes it difficult -for Premier Poincare to atend in person or at least serves as an excuse. And finally there is always the threat of an extfti "red" May Day in Genoa unless the conference is postponed. It is admitted here that trouble likely to occur, although the threatened railway strike is not worrying the French, who are perfectly willing to leave their special train at the Italian frontier and proceed to Genoa in automobiles.

The Judge ruled when Bullock was re-arrested two weeks ago that witnesses must be produced by North Carolina to establish a prlma-facle case against the negro.

Governor Morrison of North Carolina refused to send witnesses hero and the Judge held that alfldavlts submitted by the United States Consul were 'not sub-ficient proof of the prisoner's guilt, The friends of Bullock planned to spend money raised in Toronto and other places as a defense fund on a big demonstration and feast In his honor tonight. SHIP BOARD TO SELL 9 DRYDOCKS AT LOSS OF $600,000 APIECE Washington, March 3 Thirteen of the Shipping Board's drydoeks located on the Atlantic seaboard and the tlulf have been turned over to Vice President Farley, in charge of sales, to be sold. The drydoeks cost the Board about $900,000 each, and President Powell of the Emergency Fleet Corporation in announcing that they were for sale, said they should bring about $300,000 each. It is hoped, ho said, to sell to those now leasing them. The dry docks are located at Baltimore, Norfolk, Staten Island, pensa-cola, New York.

Perth Amboy, N. Galveston, Texas; Mobile, End Weehawken, N. J. It Is understood in shipping circles that tho New York docks referred to are the three sections of drydock built for the Shipping Board by the Ramsburg Drydock and Repair Company, who went into the hands of a receiver recently, and which, until a month lay off Atlantic Basin. At at time a high wind broke loose two sections and they were swept across the bay to Staten Island, where a tug pinked them up and docked them at 8.

The Harbor Master of the Dock Department a week ago demanded of the Shipping Board the immediate re moval of these drydoeks from the Staten Island pier. He was informed that as soon as weather permitted they would bo removed to Jamaica Bay. THUG TRIES HOLDUP, IS FRIGHTENED OFF Max Helfund, 37. of 515 Washington ave. was the victim of ar.

attempted holdup yesterday In his stationery and cigar store at 924 V4 Fulton in which the Fire Department, the Police Department, a nearby hos pital and a timid thug had a part. It was about 10:40 lest night when a smooth-faced, soft-hatted, brown-coated, six-foot negro entered the store and it was about 10:42 when the same six-footer burned a trail down the block, rtmning like a scared rabbit. Helfund turned to serve his customer when the fellow, instead of ordering something, pulled out a revolver, and, grasping It by the barrel, started to attack the storekeeper. Helfund received several blows that badly lacerated his scalp before he gave his lungs and voice a chance. When the scuffle waxed loud the negro became terrified and, dashing madly past the cash drawer and cigar counter, made for the door.

In tne meantime some helpful citizen, hearing the commotion and mistaking it for a fire, turned In an alarm. By the time Patrolman Daly of the Grand ave. station arrived the negro had a big lead and was going strong, so the officer turned his attentions to the wounded man. Just a few minutes before the Are engines clanged around the corner an ambulance from the Cumberland Street Hospital drew up and Dr. Rivkin stepped out to fix up his patient, who was taken to his home.

PLAY INDECENT, BUT STUPID, CENSORS SAY The chairman of a volunteer committee. Including Alexander M. Had-den, well-known churchman and philanthropist, which recently acted as it citizen's Jury in reviewing the play, "The Rubicon," reported to Chief Magistrate McAdoo's secretary, Alfred Byrne, that it was "indecent but stupid." In the opinion of the committee it should not be prosecuted as that would only tend to advertise it, whereas its alleged stupidity would otherwise cause It to die a natural death. This is the first attempt to exercise the citizens' Jury system of censorship, and it is the only play so far reported to Chief Magistrate McAdoo, but John S.

Sumner, executive officer of the Society for the Suppression of vice, has received a complaint against one other show which ho is preparing to lay before Mr. McAdoo. Mr. Sumner said he was unwilling to name fhe play, but he declared today that there was no question in his mind three or plays at present on the boards are violating the law. He added that In the past season there have been more bad liows, from a moral point of view, than ever before.
