To Do With Venezuelan

Washington, May 21.-W. W. Rus
sell, United States Minister TO Fene-
zuela called al the state department
and made an oral report which in
dicates that the end of the Castro af-
fair has arrived, so far as this session
of congress is concerned. Congress
could not see in the CORE spondence
between the two governments suffi-
cient basis for the physical coercion
Of Castro and so the matter goes Ov-
er and will be left in the hands of the
president.
During the recess of congress
should Castro renew his alleged inso-
lence to the state department, it is
likely that the president, of his own
volition. would send ships to Vene,
zuela and demand an apology.
