REFUSES TO JOIN INTERVENTION
Washington Government Believes 1t is
Too Early For Powers TO Act.


Too Early For Powers to Act.
Washington. March p. - Amicable
Intervention by the neutral powers
will end the war in the East. but not
rntll it Is Vade clear to all the neutral
powers. including the United States,
that both Russia and Japan are ready
for such Intervention. Our government
does not believe that either Russia or
Japan is ready now to welcome even a
tender OF good offices for the ending Of
the war. and It will take no part in
any movement for that purpose until
Il has direct assurances from both Rus
STA and Japan that it would be advis-
able to do so.
Sooner or later. our government be-
,ieves, such assurances will come from
both Russia and Japan. but they have
not come as yet, and our government
will not act upon a mere expression Of
belief by any OF the foreign offices OF
Europe as TO what Russia and Japan
might welcome in this respect. Mean
while our government feels that 1t is
inopportune even TO discuss the matter
because il is likely to offend either
Russia or Japan. and especially Russia,
because Of her reyerses and her sensi-
tive feeling toward the United States.
The position OF our government has
been made known 20 the British gov
eminent and TO all others interested.
The fact remains, however. that the
representatives of the neutral powers in
London have been informally sounded
as to taking such steps and that though
they may be deferred now, they may
be taken before many weeks pass. II
is a delicate and difficult task, and must
be handled most automatically. Even
Lord Lansdownes tentative and pre-
liminary inquiries, made informally, II
not unofiicially, in accordance with
diplomatic practice in advance Of any
formal communications, may make
fresh trouble between Russia and Eng
land, as we'll as other countries. Pub
licity will delay success The unfayor-
able attitude OF our government will.
OF itself, prevent any immediate action.

When House Bill No. II, BY Mr.
Deronen, relative to marriages
was reported last night, it was Sc
verely attacked from the hoCr OF
the House. with the result that il
was recommitted for farther con.

Hon John Marks. of Assump-

measure, said;
blouse Bill No. IL, by MI
Derouen, il enacted into law,
would have the effect of giving
legal effect to marriages contracted
in the contraventiou Of article "a
of the Civil Code, forbidding the
marriages between white aud col

riages are contracted in States
where no miscegenation law exists,
by citizens Of this State, as it
would validate marriages OF citizens
of this State contracted in States
where no law exists in contraven.

The promptness which the Leg.
is!atnre is taking up the governors
suggestion to Issue a million dol.
lars worth of bonds for the hene.

the unanimity Of public approval
chat has greeted the proposition, is
indeed most encouraging augury
of the future Of education in Lou
isiana. The interest on 81 900, 900
at 3 or 4 per cent would scarcely
be felt by the state treasury, and
forty years will permit of taking mp
the bonds with out any appreciable
strain upon the resources OF the
state. Il is TO be hoped that the
legislature will place the proper
constitutional amendment before
the people, aud that the people will
ralify the amendment at the com
ing congressional election in Nov
ember. ---Msr Rouge Democrat.
