ENJOY Of Britain
May Quit Vatican
Question of Withdrawal
Considered, Commons
Is Told by Harn,saUOrth

LONDON, July 16.-The British gov
eminent is considering the question
of withdrawing its envoy from the
Vatican, Cecil B. Harmsworth, Under
Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs,
declared in the House of Commons to-
day.
Mr.. Harmsworth added that he had
no confirmation of the statement made
by Robert j. Lynn, Unionist member,
who had questioned the government
that owing to the hostility of the
Vatican to the Allies during the war
the continued presence of the envoy
was causing considerable resentment
among many who had lost relatives
in the war" Mr.. Lynn represents the
Woodvale Division of Belfast.
In November, 1914, it became known
that Great Britain, because of the wal
situation, had assumed a new position
in it's relations toward the Vatican ano
would appoint a minister on specia
mission to the Pope. Sir Henry How
ard, former British Minister to Hol
land, went to Rome in December, 1914
and remained there until August, 1916
when he was succeeded by Coun
J. F. C. de Sail.
The Count has been at the Vatican
since then as envoy extraordinary anl
minister plenipotentiary on a specia
mission, the status of which is diff
ferent from that of permanent 1ega
ton.

Okuma Denounces Allies
For Race Equality Stand
Blot ON Justice and Humanity.
Declares Ex-Premier
of Japan

YOKOHAMA, June 10 (Corresp pond
ence of The Associated Press ).-Fail-
ure of the peace conference at Paris to
adopt Japan's proposal of racial equal
ity was denounced by Marquis Okuma,
formerly Premier of Japan, in an ad
dress he delivered recently before the
Japan Civilization Society.
ut is a blot on justice and humanity
that the whites, who constitute less
than one third OF the worlds popula-
ton, assume the control of the world,
and declare that justice and hui
mainly which do not recognize racial
equality are scarcely worthy of the
name" he said Germany has hith-
erto been a great influence in the
world, and this influence is about to
be replaced by Anglo-Amercan influ
ence, which will produce farreaching
effect on the future peace of the world
and the veal of mankind"
Concluding, Marquis Okuma said
that the japanese are considerably in
ferior to Westerners in intellectual
powers, physical strength and wealth.
and they must show no hesitation in
possessing themselves Of whatever is
required to make them the equal of
others. He added:
"There is nothing wrong in secur
ing development, morally, economically
and socially. If the best efforts are
made in these directions, it is to be
hoped that no great difficulty will be
experienced in surprising the arrogant
Westerners and bringing them to their
knees"

Committee to Re-examine
Polk on Russian Loans
House Investigators to Recall
Him on Account of Cleve-
land Mans Charges

WASHINGTON, July 16.-The House
Committee on Expenditures in the
State Department will request Acting
Secretary of State Polk to reappear
before it on Friday to clear up differ
ences regarding the amounts of money
lent by the United States to the Keren-
sky government and other matters re-
lating to American investments in Rus
STA, the chairman of the committee,
Representative Elliott, of Indiana,
stated to-day.
The committee desires to recall Mr.
Polk in order to investigate statements
made to it by Henry w. Elliott, of
Cleveland, Ohio, that the correct fig
ures on American investments in Rus
STA. both governmental and private,
greatly exceed the figures recently
given by Mr.. Polk.
Instead of only s187 100000. the
Kerensky government got an American
loan of nearer S287 100000, the Cleve-
land man stated to the committee. He
also asserted that $100,O0O,000 was
spent on the Root mission and the
American railway mission to Russia,
and the latter is still paying high
salaries to men who are performing
no service. He alleged also that the
American government took over $780,
100000 worth of British Russian NUM-
tions contracts, which, he says, could
never be realized upon.

LONDON, July 16 The quiet
launching of the new Centre Party, at
which Winston Spencer Churchill, Sec
rotary of State for War, oficiated, has
aroused much interest because poll
tlcians see in the move an attempt to
destroy the Asquith Liberals and the
extreme Conservatives. If the scheme
proves workable the next election
will find the Labor and the Centre
parties the chief opponents.
Though the organization dinner was
attended by only 100 men, the party

Politicians were specializing to-day as
to the attitude of men like Sir Don
aid MCLEAN, the free Liberal leader
and Lord Robert Cecil, whose political
independence and lbe ralism have been
conspicuous recently.
1t is expected that the Centre party
will accept some labor principles and
will thus enlist the support Of the
Right Wing Of the Labor party.
If the Centre party does rally the
opposition it is considered unlikely
that a showdown will come until after
the treaty has been ratified. A general

WASHINGTON, July 1e.-Former
German dyestuff agents are seeking to
reestablish their American markets
and defeat proposed government con-
troll of dye imports, the House Ways
and Means Committee was told to-day
by Francis P. Garvan, alien property
custodian.
Mr.. Caravan said he had letters writ
ten by companies which formally acted
as German agents, which showed these
firms were trying to convince the trade
that the proposed licensing system
would be harmful to it's interests.

the Chemical Foundation, Inc, Repre-
sentative Moore, Republican, of Penn
sylvania, asked if he considered it
proper that he should hold the office
of assistant Attorney General, alien
property custodian and president of
the foundation. Mr. Caravan said that
if Mr. Moore could suggest anything
incompatible in his holding the offices
he would resign from either or all
three"

NAPLES, July 16.-The steamer Sa-
blons arrived here from London, but
was stopped by workmen in the har-
Dor, who refused to allow her to con-
tinue her voyage because she carried
ammunition. The crew was forced to
unload the cargo, after which the ship
was allowed to proceed.
The harbor workmen claimed the
ammunition was to be used against
the Bolshevikl in Russia.
The identity of the Sablons Is un-

in available shipping records. The pro
posed general strike in Italy, France and
Great Britain on July 81, according to
the plans of its leaders. is to be in part

Peaceful PIebiscite
Expected in Silesia
Allies Ready to Send Troops, if
Necessary, but Think Ger
mans and Poles viii Retire

PARIS, July 16 (By The Associated
Press -Delegate Of the United States
as we'll as of the other powers, it is
said, have expressed in Supreme Coun-
Gil meetings willingness to send troops
to Upper Silcsia if necessary, although
all the peace delegations now seem
confident that the difficulties between
the Poles and the Germans can be adj
justed so as to hold the plebscite in
the region without the necessity Of in
tervention by foreign military forces
Plans for the plebiscite are being per-
fected rapidly.
All German and Polish soldiers will
leave the district peaceably, according
to present indications, and enable the
Allies to organize local police force
sufficiently strong to insure proper con-
duct of the balloting.
The peace delegates are said to be
of the opinion that the Germans are
disposed to execute in good faith that
part of the treaty terms calling for
evacuation of the Baltic provinces
Upper Silesia, and other parts of
Poland occupied by German troops.
The Berlin "Nossische Zeitung" Of
June 10 printed report that 10000
United States troops were on their
way from France to Silesia. This was
denied the same day in American peace
circles in Paris, where it was said it
was improbable that any Allied troops
would be sent to police that area dur
ing the. plebscite, as the French were
strongly opposed to the proposition
and the British were lukewarm. 1t was
stated that the American army could
not legally be used for this purpose
without special hori2ation.

that made by Senator John Sharp
Williams.
To Defend Shantung Action
He will not. of course, concede with
Senator Williams that the Shantung
settlement was bad, but had to be &C
cepted to keep Japan in the peace con-
ference, but he will inquire what
course the Republican critics would
have pursued if confronted with this
dilemma.
Mr. Hitchcock will also lay emphasis
on the point that the President was
weakened in his defence of China by
the position which the Republican
Senator's who are now criticsing his
actions assumed when he first left for
Paris. They weakened him to a point,
Nh. Hitchcock contends, where he
could not exert the full force of the
influence of the United States against
Japan.
incidentally, the impression among
Senators Of both factions is that the
reported treaty between Germany and
Japan with regard to Russia is not
bona fidc. They believe that it was a
part of the propaganda used by Japan
during that period to coerce Great
Britain and Trance into agreeing to the
Shantung treaty between China and
Japan, under which Japan took over
the German concessions in that prov
ince.
1t was pointed out that Japan was
constantly allowing dispatches to get
abroad indicating that Germany was
willing to make separate treaty with
Japan, as, for instance, on May II, 1916,
when a dispatch was sent out that the
German Minister at Stockholm had
made proposals to the Japanese Min
lister there.
To- Bring Up Corea Issue
All Of this, it is said, had tendency
to force the hands of England and
France, both fighting at the time with
their backs to the wall and unable TO
ferred. Mr.. Hitchcock also plans to
attack the Republicans, because under
the Presidency of Mr.. Roosevelt they
did nothing to prevent Corea being an
rexed by Japan, although treaty be-
tween Corca and the United States,
ratified in 1882, also under Repub
lican Administration, provided that if
any foreign nation should threaten one
of the two the other would use its

ened.
The formal reading of the peace
treaty was resumed by the Foreign Re-
lations Committee to-day, about one
third of the document being gone over.
Members of the committee declared
afterward that every paragraph which
imposed duties or obligations on the
United States was reserved for further
consideration.

ment imposes on the country. | assert
