u. S. ACTION PLEASES
CHINESE DELEGATES
French Report Calls Shan
tung Black Spot in Treaty.
By Sta1 Correspondent Of The Sun.
CopKriQAf. 1919 oil rfnhks rnserred

PARIS. Aug. 25.-Members of the Chi
nese delegation to the Peace Conference
express the greatest satisfaction over
the action OF the Senate Foreign Rela-
tions Committee In regard to the Shan
tung clause in the peace treaty. DR..
Wellington Koo, Chinese Minister to
Washington and n member of the dele
cation, said
This Is great act, and If It stands
will vindicate the honor of the Allies.
1t proves also that America is still the
greatest moral force in the world. Chi
nese believe that II the treaty, thus
amended. were sent back here the other
nations would agree to the amendment.
In this event they believe Japan would
be compelled to consent"
incidentally IT. is now disclosed that
the Barthou report on the treaty to the
French chamber, soon to be published
described the Shantung settlement as the
BLACKLIST spot on the conference record
The Chinese interpret this to mean that
the French would support the Americans
In the proposed amendment.
According to members of the Japanese
delegation Japan could not accept such
an amendment or any reservations what
soever to the treaty, which they hold
would be a violation of the decision OF
the Big -Four in reply to China and other
nations that no reservations would bt
allowed. They seem TO think this de-
clsion should bind the Senate.

BURNS AGENCY MAN
SCORED BY CLIENTS
Montreal Contractor Thinks
He Was Doubled Crossed.

NJ Connolly, a Montreal contractor
who for time employed the William
J. Burns International Detective Agency
to run down a band of wire tappers he
said had swindled him out of $125, 900.
appeared yesterday as a witness before
William Boardman, Deputy State Comp
troller, at the hearing on the charges
made against the agency by Edward ".
Edwards. secretary of the Allied Print
ing Trades Council. Connolly became
dissatisfied with the way the case was
handled because he thought, he said,
that two men who were being Swallowed
had been lost unnecessarily.
ITS my belief that the Burns agency
acted fraudulently and that they could
have got all the men in three days.
he declared.
Connolly said that in July he wrote
4 to the Premier Of the Province of Que
bee suggesting that he refuse to grant
the Burns concern license there.
II did It IN the public interest,"" Con-
molly went on. From what / heard I
believed the Burns people were working
in the interest of the wire tappers and
1 didn't want the parasites to prey upon
the public any longer"
He declined to pay his bill to the
agency. he told Mr.. Boardman. because
of his belief that his interests had been
betrayed.

TORONTO, Aug. 25.-The start Of the
all the thrills that the vast crowd
thronging Leaside Field at the Canadian
exposition grounds could demand. The
first starter was Roland Rohlfs, holder
Of the American altitude record, and his
first effort to rise from the ground
threw his Curtks Oriole into a somer-
sault. Strangely enough tho plane and
Rohlfs were uninjured and twenty min
utes later the graceful plane rose clean
from the ground. followed at close inter-
walls by eleven others.
The Prince of Wales arrived at the
| field only a few minutes before the time
for the start The weather looked ON
lnous and in the rush to get the racers
away Col. w. G. Barker, who was to
have carried a letter from the Prince
to President Wilson went without the
misstve. Col. Barker shared the cheers
with the Prince Of Wales, however, for
he is perhaps Canada's pet ace.
Fittingly, he flew a captured German
Fokker. He. has eighteen German planes
to his credit and he wears four decora-
tons from England for gallantry In the
air. These are the Victoria Cross, Mill
tary Cross. Distinguished Service Order
and Distinguished Flying Cross.
Despite the failure of aerial communi.
cation between the Prince and the Presi.
dent, to-day marked the inauguration
OF aerial mail between Canada and the
United States. Several OF the fiiers car.
ried letters from the Mayor of Toronto
and the Mayors of other Canadian cities

Mayors OF Buffalo, Syracuse and AL

SENATORS APPROVE
FRENCH ALLIANCE
Judiciary Sub Committee
Sees Future German Peril.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 25.--while Ger
many has been vanquished for, the pres
emit. nothing but force is likely to re-
strain her from seeking world domina-
zion at the earliest opportunity" is the
opinion OF the Senate Judciany sub-com-
mittee appointed to report on the valid
ity OF the proposed treaty by which the
United States would go to- the aid OF
France In the event Of an unprovoked
attack by Germany.
In holding that ratification of the
special defensive treaty is within the con-
stitutional powers OF the treaty making
bodies of the American Government, the
subcommittee in Its report submitted
to-day to the full committee said 1t
was for the interest of the United States
that France should be allowed to re-
cuperate and recover her old time vigor.
She will them" said the report, "be
great shield and protection to US
against the German menace in the
future"
The report was written by Senator
Walsh (Mon,) in collaboration with
senators Nelson (Minn.) and kellogg
tor Overman On CO. constituting the
subcommittee.
TT will be seen." the report said,
that the covenant only aims at protec-
ton against Germany and that 1t is OF
a temporary character to be merged In
and substituted by the authority OF the
League Of Nations when that Is estab-
lished and put into operation. AS the
armistice covers the ground between the
end OF the war and the ratification Of
the treaty of peace. so the treaty in
question aims TO cover the ground from
the time Of the adoption Of the treaty
until the League of Nations. provided
forHn the treaty. can take its place. In
other words the treaty in question is of
a temporary character. to be merged In
the final treaty OF peace.
such a treaty is clearly warranted
by International law and usage, and Is
therefore within the scope of the treaty
making power Of the United States"

BROWN Gets Girls smile.
When Il came Lieut.. Browns turn TO
start two young women made a skidding
flight over the wet field and toward
Brown and his observer. 1t was quite
important to start on time and the Of
ficials were for stopping the two women.
But they were not to be denied. One,
who declared herself to be the Princess
dc la Patra, daughter Of the Sultan Has
san~e1 Kennel OF Egypt, bestowed hand
kerchief upon Brown, and the Lieutenant
knotted Il to one of the struts OF his
plane. The young woman with the
Princess said that she was Miss Ethel
Abass. She did not give up her hand
kerchief, but she rendered a smile that
almost fetched Lieut.. Dan Gish, Browns
observer, out Of his seat.
About fifteen of the machines had
made their getaway when the megaphone
operators began announcing that the New
York bound fiiers we're reaching Buffalo.
Gen. Menoher made personal inspec-
ton of all the machines before they
lined up for the start.
This race" he said, will give us
very necessary data concerning the
relative values of the different makes
of machines and motors participating.
The seemingly indiscriminate matching
of slow and fast motors Is not so in
consistent as 1t may appear to be. The
race. you know. is not alwayA to the
swift.
while the high power planes. such
as the SE-5s may make brilliant flights
between control stations the low power
planes, such as the De Haviland As,
NAV he better stickersl
AT any rate the idea OF the race
is to establish reliability ana 1t will
give the Government, as well as private
interests, invaluable data. Also the
race will demonstrate the commercial
possibilities of airplanes for mail, freight
and passenger service over Instance as
great as from here TO Toronto and
back.
II regret that no German Fokker is
making the trip from New York to
Toronto. I'd like to observe one in
competition with these others. I have
no prejudice against the Fokker be-
cause It is of German development II
is a marvellously simple and effective
piece of mechanism and the more we
know about 1t the better"

the United States Air Service, consumed
hours and so minutes In his trip from
Toronto to Roosevelt Field. Each Of the
three made brief stops at Buffalo and
Albany.
The race between Coombs. Rohlfs and
Schroeder was a furious affair from
start to finish They all attained aiti-
tu6es Of from 5000 to 5000 feet and all
declared that. aside from slight fog in
the intermediate attitudes, the at
mospheric conditions attending the flight
were admirable. On several occasions
they declared they were within sight of
each other and never were any OF them
more than fifteen minutes separated.
hohlfs's flight was especially fine. mas
much as he was almost wrecked at the
start. Rohlfs said that 1875 mile gale
was sweeping over Lake Erie when he
made the Curtiss Field in Buffalo, but
that 1t was a steady blow and not dan
gerous. The three landed at Buffalo
within six minutes of each other and
maintained their close race to Albany,
where they reported within fifteen min
utes of each other.
They had no trouble landing on Roose-
welt Field. That area was a brilliant
width OF light. Flarelights and search
lights m9de the turf and the low hang
ing clouds above almost noonlike. As
each OF the airmen arrived they and
their observers hustled to taxicabs and
motor cars and were taken to hotels or
10 their homes or to homes of friends.
Inc huge planes were trundled to tho
squat hangers, where mechanicians set

Britain FaithIess TO Egypt.

Mr. Folk recounted for the committee
the long series of assurances by British
statesmen In responsible positions that
Egypt was held only temporarily by
England and finally would receive it's
freedom Nevertheless, and despite the
fact that the Egyptians fought valiantly
with the allied Powers against Germany,
Britain had announced a protectorate
and deposed the hereditary Khedlve,
placing his uncle on the throne with the
title of Sultan.
When the Paris Congress was about
to meet the Egyptians sent a delegation
10 attend t. 1t was headed by Tag
loul, described as the idol OF Egyptians,
and on arrival at Malta was informed.
Thereupon revolution broke out in Egypt
and thousands were killed in suppress
ing It. Gen. ADenby. British commander
in Egypt. then advised that the delega-
ton be permitted to proceed to Paris
which II did. But on arrival 1t found
that Dust two days earlier the Peace
Congress had adopted into the treaty the
clause whereby the signatories recog-
nize the British protectorate over Egypt.
The delegates could get no hearing be-
fore the Peace Congress, President Will
son could not receive them, and they
asked passports, which we're promised
to them. But three days afterward
these were refused, and they are still at
Paris, unable to leave for any other
country.
Mr.. Folk wanted Egypt cared for by
inserting in one OF the league articles q
proviso that Egypt should be within the
jurisdiction of the league. This, he be-
fieved, would enable the Egyptians TO
take their case there with a hope OF
getting Justice.
Senator Lodge assured Mr.. Folk that
such a clause would have no such eff
feet because the United States has al
