NO OPPOSITION TO REPEAL.

New York, Dec. $50 far as l
know, as chairman of the committee
on foreign affairs, there is no objec.
ton in congress or out of congress, to
the enactment into law Of the resolu.
ton to abrogate the Russian treaty,
said Representative William Sulzer in
calling attention to the fact that the
committee will hold hearings at Wash
ington next Monday on the resolution
for the treaty's abrogation because of
Russia's discrimination in refusing to
honor passports held by Jewish resi-
dents of the United States.
After the resolution is passed and
becomes law" said Mr.. Sulzer, 1.-The
president will give years notice
and during that time the representa-
tives of Russia and the United States
will have ample opportunity to write
new treaty that will be up to date
cover all matters and not be offensive
to the citizens of either of the high
contracting parties"
