WASHINGTON, June 27-Both the
House and Senate looked into the Rus
sian situation to-day.
The Senate passed the resolution in
troduced by Senator Johnson, of Cali
fornia, calling on the President to in
form the Senate of the governments
policy with reference to Russia. Under
this resolution, which was passed
without a dissenting vote, Senator
Johnson demands that complete details
OF the reason for American occupation
of Russian territory be furnished. The
resolution likewise calls for the i'm -
mediate withdrawal Of American troops
from Russian territory.
On the House side, Acting Secretary
of State Polk testified before the Com
mittee on Expenditures in the State
department that no interest has yet
been paid on $187, 100000 advanced by
the United States government to the
Kerensky regime.
Tells of Interest Payments
Mr.. Folks testimony was given at a
hearing on Representative Mason's res
olution inquiring into the payment of
interest on Russian bonds of the
Cars regime held in this country by
private individuals and the use of
American troops in Russia.
Mr. Polk denied that Former Russian
Ambassador Boris Bakhmetieff used
money loaned by the United States to
pay interest charges on privately
owned bonds issued by the Czar. Ac-
cording to Mr.. Polk, Ambassador Bakh-
metieff had on deposit in this coun-
'try $20,000,000 to use for such pur-
poses.
The money used to pay for recent
advertisements in this country did not
come from any sum lent by the United
States, Mr.. Polk also declared. The
Kolchak government has not yet been
recognized, but any government which
is eventually recognized in Russia will
be expected to live up to it's interna-
tional obligations, he said. Even the
Bolsheviki, he said, have recognized
this fact.
Kerensky Got $187,0o0,o00
The Cars government before the
revolution borrowed $50,0O0,OOO from
private interests in this country. MIR.
Polk stated, while the Kerensky gov
ernment obtained credits totallinp
$450,000,0O0. Of this amount $751;
100000 had been actually advanced
when Kerensky fell.
According to Mr.. Polk, war purchases
maze IN this country by the Kerensky
regime were placed by the War Indus
tries Board with the approval of the
Treasury Department.
The question of any government
helping maintain for its citizens the
value of bonds issued by another gov
ernment was justified by Mr.. Polk. He
declared that England has helped guar
antee the ultimate validity of bonds
bought by English citizens from the
Cars government. This was done,
he said, because the buying of those
bonds by private individuals helped
England within the war.
Default on $4,000, ,o00, 900
The Russians have defaulted on
about $4,000, 100000 of bonds held in
France, mostly by private individuals,
Mr.. Polk said, and England has also
been hard hit. Both governments, how
ever, have assured the bondholders
there is no cause for alarm, he said.

LONDON, June 2S.-Despite the
pleading Of such influential leaders as
Ben Tillett, ]. R. Clynes and Arthur
Henderson, the British Labor Party
Conference voted to-day by a majority
Of close to million in favor of direct
action-namely, strike to force Brit
ish military withdrawal from Russia.
Great demonstrations are planned in
Great Britain, France and Italy on July
20 and 21 to protest against the Rus
sian policy of the Allies. In England
the demonstration is not likely to take
the form of strikes, though that is the
plan in Italy and France.
To-day's decision at Southport was
startling, as it was expected after
Wednesdays preliminary debate that
the idea Of direct action on political
questions had been abandoned. 1t
shows in striking manner the power
of Robert Smillie, the leader of the
miners, and the radicalism of the mass
Of the workers.
1t is unnecessary to state that
Clynes and Henderson, who have vi
sions of the formation of a labor gov
ernment soon, were disappointed by the
decision of the convention, as it means
weakening of labor's campaign on
constitutional lines.
The decision is bound to ALLEVIATE
many voters who had leaned toward
the Labor party because of dissatis
faction with the Liberals but who
cannot uphold class action.
SOUTHPORT, England, June Il (By
The Associated Press Arthur Hen
derson, British labor leader, explain
ing the action of the labor conference
in calling for demonstration against
allied policies, explained that the
demonstration would be an attempt to
prevent the governments of Europe
from adopting a reactionary policy
throughout that continent.
1t would be left to each country, he
added, to decide whether the demon
stration would take the form of politi-
cal or industrial action. Resolutions
would be passed protesting against
any Intervention in Russia and de-
manding the abandonment of con-
scription.
The conference later passed a reso-
luton calling upon the trade union
congress to take industrial action to
compel the British government to stop
operations in Russia. There was a
heated discussion over the resolution,
which was passed on a card vote by
1898 900 to $4,000.
Without dissenting vote the con-
ference adopted resolution condemn
ing conscription and recommending
that the trade union congress and the
triple alliance" take immediate in
dustrial action to abolish ii.

WASHINGTON, June 27.-A situa-
tlon without precedent has been cre-
ated by the Senate resolution calling
upon the House to take action concern
ing remarks made by Representative
Johnson, of Kentucky, about Senator
Pomerene, of Ohio, on Tuesday, de-
clared Representative Campbell, Of
Kansas, chairman Of the House Rules
Committee, tonight.
Representative Johnson brought UP
the matter to-day on a question Of per-
sonal privilege. Declaring that he was
ready to substantiate his charges
against Senator Pomerene with docu-
mentary evidence, he asked the Speaker
to take under advisement the matter
of whether Senator Pomerene could be
named in person in his reply.
A subcommittee of the Rules Com
mlttee spent the afternoon drafting
suitable resolution to meet the situa-
tion. This committee will report to
the main committee tomorrow, which
IN turn is expected to report to the

added $3.50 to this, but out of this
latter sum Professor Nearing had to
rebate to the bureau for commissions
and expenses all but $55, leaving his
income as stated from the Rand School
interests and without taking into ac-
count book royalties.
Refers to His Sacrifice"
"I feel that it is we'll to call the at
tention of the committee to the fact
that these thirty days Mr.. Nearing,
through this one affiliation, drew ap-
proximately $610, and to the further
fact that had Professor Nearing con-
tinued as an associate professor in the

than $500 a month"; said Archibold E.
Stevenson, counsel to the committee.
II think it is rather an interesting
commentary upon the self-sacrifice of
those who are agitating for the de-
spoiled and oppressed of this state.
In looking through the various pamph-
lets and leaflets, which were on sale
at the Rand School bookstore, I came
across a pamphlet entitled The Prof
it's of Religion by one Upton Sinclair,
and that made me think that the COM
mittee might be interested in looking

gested Chairman Lusk, who then bland
ly inquired:
"Is there any record Of Professor
Nearing's distribution Of any Of this
money among the oppressed for whom
he was speaking on the different
dates?"
There was no such record found"
said Mr.. Stevenson.
There was read into the record a
schedule found among the papers of
Berenberg, the following schedule of
speakers with their compensation for
lectures, as follows:

years in Atlanta for violation of the

as one of it's star lecturers.
The burden of a great mass of the
testimony yesterday connected the
Rand School with Socialistic activity
and with both the Right and Left
wings of that organization.
Attorney General Newton laid the
foundation for his action to cancel the
charter of the American Socialist So
ciety and wind up its activities in this
state when he read into the record

found that the exact wording of the
Indictment was, "wilfully, knowingly

INTRODUCES PATENTED. .LUBR|CAT|NG SYSTEM FUR ALL STYLE CARS

lubricathig system that provides sor a thorough fabrication of your car in ten or 15 minutes work, instead of four or five hours work, is the Alemite Lubricating System, according to Bob Byrns, local representative doing busi- ness under the firm name of the Ari- zona Truck and Tractor company.
 Mr. Byrns, for many years promin- tnt in automobile circles in the valley and formerly member of the Byrns- Ray Cadillac company here. has taken the agency for this Iubricating sys- tenn. Trials by many of the largest companies of the state, operating large tuck or passenger fleets, have proven ccnclusively the advantage of this sys- tenn, he claims.
 As further support to his claims, he stated that thc largest auto factories h the woylI are adopting the Alemite Lubricatins system as rapidly as the necessary changes could be provided.
 Among local firms that have already adopted she system, he said. are the Standard Oii company, Union Oil com rany and Union Stage line
 The system is adaptable to any style motor, in fact to any motive power machine. In place of the grease cups, which a high pressure compressor is instantly attached. This compressor forces the grease into all parts of the car needing fabrication.

SEMI TRAILER B|G { A|D IN REDUCING
 COSTS OF HAULING

Reduction of hauling costs is an interesting subject to all truck oper- ators," states c. W. Hartranft. dis tributor of Utility trailers. Few of them, however, appreciate the value of the semi trailer in this regard. When it is realized that on our valley roads any standard make of one-ton truck will handle three-ton load without overlooking the truck, they become in terested.
 ''The semi i-trailer is to all intents and purposes a four wheel trailer with front wheels and springs removed. In their place is special fifth wheel construction which rests on the frame of the truck. All of the load is placed on the semi-trailer frame and this in turn throws one-third of its load on the truck. In this way the capacity of any truck may be increased three hun dred per cent, and without overload. Any of the standard makes of trucks have sufficient pulling power to handle Utility semi-trailers on average val ley roads. On the better valley roads it is possible to pull four-wheel trailer Denind the Semi-trailer
 Tn Phoenix there are operating in lumber yards alone six Utility semi trailers, two five-ton semi -trailers on two-ton Nash trucks, one three-ton semi trailer on a one-ton Maxwell truck, one on a oneton Republic truck. and two three ton semi -trailers on one-ton Ford trucks.
 For hauling bulky material they are unexcelled. It is possible to put a bed on semi-tralier of great length and still maintain a proper distribution of weight. A long bed on truck means big over-hang in the rear. This throws the entire weight of the load over the driving wheels. With a semi trailer loaded to capacity you have tripled your trucks capacity without throwing more than a capacity load on the driving wheels of the truck"

Celebrating the second anniversary of it's birth, the Used Car department of the Roper Motor company is this month offering exceptional values at it's "open air salesroom" on Van Buren street, from Central to First avenues.
 For originality, the Roper Used Car department is without a peer in the southwest. Business methods of the department were conceived in fertile brain and put into execution in dili- gent manner.
 It is seldom that one combines all the climatic as well as physical ele- ments of community in the estab- lishment of a business. But that is the idea carried into perfect execution by the Roper Used Car department to the benefit of prospective purchasers.
 Be it known that the Roper Used Car department is an institution the like of which has probably never been du- plicated. It is sound business firm founded on concrete base yet with the

 It is the one "open air business firm of Phoenix. It. is probably the one 'open air" automobile firm of the United States if not the entire world.
 Having utmost faith in the mecha- nical perfectness of the used cars of fered for sale, the company displays these machines in the open air, with the great blue sky as the only covering. There is no dark salesroom with the Roper Used Car department
 These cars are displayed to the pub lie in the open every clear day and that is about 325 days each year in Phoenix. They are parked on a plot of ground in the old Central school block, where critical public has every opportunity to examine them.
 Advantages of doing business on this method are many. In the first place, it was claimed prospective purchasers of cars are given the benefit of rock-bot-

 But probably the most unique fea,- ture of the entire department is the ingenious office" of the Roper Used Car department It's an office in every sense of the word, made of two piano boxes yet having every appearance of going concern.
 For example, a couple of desks, telephone, a typewriter and all other necessary paraphernalia add much to the coyeniences of prospective pur- chasers.
 The Roper Used Car department was started two years ago this month. Quality merchandise, honest dealings and sound business methods have re- suited in steady, almost remarkable growth, in the concern until at the present time. the demand for Roper used cars has almost exceeded the supply.

According to the tentative plans, the interior of the tent will be elaborately decorated with Chinese decorations, in fact an at tempt is now being made to secure a great part of the same wonderful decorations that were the talk of the lest Los Angeles show.
 Already, many high grade cabaret entertainers have been secured direct from the coast which will add to the interest of the show.
 Out-of-town dealers are planning on exhibiting many cars that are not now represented in Phoenix and this feature will afford thc motor loving public, an opportunity to see at first hand, prac- tically everything in the last word in motordrom, according 10 MT.
