Conference AdjOmns- No Rec
concentrations to Congress
LEAVE FEDERAL LAWS ALONE
NO DEFINITE ACTION is TAKEN
ON ANY SUBJECTS DISCUSSED
AND EBERHART's RESOLUTION
RELATIVE TO JURISDICTION OF.
COURTS IS NOT ADOPTED.

washington, Jan. 21.-The majority
of state heads consider the governors
conference as a school for governors
rather than as a body to recommend
legislation or to take definite action on
any of the subjects discussed. This
fact was made plain at the conclusion
of the session of the conference late
yesterday when it was discovered that
all resolutions calling for a formal ex-
preston of opinion by the governors
should be left in allegiance. Several
governors thought the body should
take definite stand on some great
public questions
Deal With State Problems.
The governors showed that it is
their purpose to deal with state prob
lems and to leave to the federal gov
ernment the questions which concerned
the nation as whole. This decision
was evident when the committee ap-
pointed to consider the resolution in
troduced by Governor Eberhart of
Minnesota, relative to recommended
tions to the congress concerning the
jurisdiction of the federal and state
courts, reported that sIch jurisdiction
belonged to the president of the Unit
ed States and did not come within the
scope of the conference.

states also that the Russian government,
considers the alternative proposition
for participation in an intentional SYN
dicate for the construction OF the Chin
Chow Aigum line acceptable in princi-
pie, but because of the political and
stratigetical Importance of the enter
prise, and bearing on the east Chinese

on this subject pending the receipt OF

Russia reserves the right to pass
upon all such projects as affecting its
