WASHINGTON, Nov. 17.—(UE)— An informal and business-like telephone conversation between President Hoover and President-elect Roosevelt today arranged a momentous meeting at the W’hite House next Tuesday to discuss the war debt problem.
It was a simple American way of fixing a conference that not only will shatter precedent, but will be watched by the entire world because of its possible consequences. Never before have a chief executive and his successor j thus advised together.
‘Informal’ Conference President Hoover emphasized in a brief White House statement tonight that he conference would be "informal.”
Sitting beside President Hoover will be his chief financial adviser, Secretary of Treasurer Ogden L. Mills, the White House announced. I Professor Raymond Moley will ac-j company President-elect Roosevelt, j it w as announced at Albany.
The president announced also ; tonight that he has summoned the ! three ranking Republican and De-j mocratic members of the house ways and means committee and the senate finance committee to the White house for a conference on the foreign debts Wednesday | morning following his meeting with Roosevelt.
Congress Leaders Invited Invitations to these congressional leaders revived speculation as to the likelihood of a recommendation by President Hoover for recreation of the world war debt funding commission to consider some revision later of the war obligations.
Any postponement of the $124,-000,000 payments due Dec. 15, it was generally felt here, is unlikely because of the opposition of congress which only grew more emphatic today. These congressional leaders as have others, will tell President Hoover, that.

The higher culture comes and must come in increasing measure from the institution we know' as the university, the university is indeed a great fountain of light and leading.
State Well Favored "Southern California, — indeed, the great state of California as a whole, — is well favored in the number and high character of her educational institutions. Her public school system has long been regarded as among the most advanced and progressive in the entire country. Her colleges of lib-elar arts, teacher-training institutions, and teachnical and professional schools would be an honor to any commonwealth. But in addition to all these, our community is blessed with great cultural institutions of distinguished quality and illustrious achievement. When w'e consider the value of our great Los Angeles public library, the unique Henry E. Huntington library and art galleryr, the Los Angeles museum of history', sei-j ence and art, the Southwest museum, Mt. Wilson observatory ] and still other cultural founda-| tions in our midst, wTe swell with pride in such marvelous resources. Few, if any communities, are ! more blessed than our own with 1 cultural institutions of outstanding character.
