has acouiesced in the gag rule.
His position Is so strong that had
he fought for publicity there is little
doubt that he could have had
it. The gag rule springs from petty
squabbles and from the Irresponsible
ity of the Paris press. There has
been little publicity regarding the
meeting so far. Covenants are not
being openly arrived at, but appar-
emily the French statesmen are TAX
ing the French press more into con-
fidence than British or American
statesmen are doing in regard to
their press. Every morning French
newspapers have published stories
more or less circumstantial about
happenings in the conference. These
stories American representatives
find full of inaccuracies.
One instance precipitated the pres
ent situation. The Temps announc-
ed that the Americans were ready
to send an army TO Poland TO fight
the Bolsheviks. The next morning
the commission denied tins state
ment. The American denial. though
intended only for the American
press, was given by an American
journalist to the French Socialist
newspaper, l'Humanite, which print
ed it as coming directly from Lans-
ing.
G'Humanite had just scored sharp
ly against the Clemenccau Govern
ment by the publication of the Pi.
ohon letter, replying to the English
proposition regarding Russia. An
exclusive statement by Lansing, ap-
pearing in this anti-Clemenceau or
gan, naturally was embarrassing,
particularly as it was used as the
basis of an attack on the French
policy regarding Poland.
Under the rule prevailing II is
now impossible to disclose just what
representations were made by the
French to the American official dele
gates regarding this incident, but
the upshot was the adoption of the
rule forbidding all publicity except
the canned statement Of the French
Government regarding the confer.

The Son Of arzan
BY EDGAR RICE BURROUGHS

One day, as the men were gathered
at little distance, inspecting the body
of panther that had fallen to the gun
of one of them VINO had been hunting
inland, Paulvitch lay sleeping beneath
his tree. He was awakened by the
touch of hand upon his shoulder.
With start he sat up to see huge
anthropoid ape squatting at his side,
inspecting him intently.
The Russian was thoroughly fright
ened. He glanced toward the sailors
away.
Again the ape plucked at his shoul-
ders, jabbering plaintively. Paulvitch
saw no menace in the inQuiring gaze
or in the attitude of the beast. He got
slowly to his feet. The ape rose at his
side.
Half doubled, the man shuffled eau
tiously away toward the sailors. The
ape moved with him, taking one of his
arms. They had come almost to the
little knot of men before they were
seen, and by this time Paulvitch had
| become assured that the beast meant
him no harm. The animal evidently
was accustomed to the association Of
human beings.
1t occurred to the Russian that the
ape represented considerable and GER
tain money value, and before they
reached the sailors he had decided that
ne should be the one to profit by it.
When the men looked up and saw
the oddly paired couple shutting to-
ward them they were filled with amaze
ment and started on a run toward the
two. The ape showed no sign Of fear
Instead, he grasped each sailor by thu
shoulder and peered long and earnestl!
into his face. Having inspected then
all, he returned to Paulvitch's side, dis
appointment written strongly upon hi
countenance and in his carriage.
The men were delighted with him
They gathered about, asking Paulvitcl
many questions and examining his com
panion. The Russian told them tina
