PETERSBURG BAR
ENDORSES WEST.

Especial to The Richmond yirginian.
/ Petersburg. Va. July 10.--A peti'
I ton has recently been circulated In
Petersburg in behalf OF the candidacy
of Jesse F. West, OF the Third Judi
cial circuit for election as the success
sor OF Judge Stafford G. whittle as a
member OF the supreme court OF APP
peals. A very large majority OF the
bar OF Petersburg have signed this
petition.
Judge West whose home is in
Southside Virginia has been judge of
the Third Judicial circuit for fifteen
years, and previous to his election to
that ONCE was for twelve years Judge
of the county court of Sussex.
At the 1914 session of the general
assembly. at which Judge Kelly was
elected a member of the supreme
court. Judge West was his closest
competitor, II requiring thirteen bal
lots TO elect Judge Kelly Up to the
thirteenth ballot. Judge West led all
other candidates in the field. and on
this last ballot Judge Kelly won by
only n small margin. In this contest
Judge West. besides having the largest
endorsement Of the bar, had the solid
support of the Second and Fourth con-
gressional districts, and his friends
claim for him strong support not only
in these but in other districts of the
state in the coming contest.
Prominent members of the Peters
burg bar are of the opinion that the
election of Judge Whites successor
will devolve upon the present general
assem- hly,and should be held at the
special session which convenes in Au-
gust, as they believe is true as to the
filling of al vacancies in other judi
cial offices of the state.

i But while this act OF congress ma,
be applied to prevent any tradinl
which the government does not ap.
prove. Il will not be used to prevent
any trading TO which the govern.
ment sees no objection.

charged with the enforcement OF the
trading with the enemy act has gone
out OF existence. Whatever Is done
therefore, must be done by the regu.
lar departments OF the government
1t was animated that they would be
guided by the interests Of the people
Of the United States.
No strict construction nor undue
interference with American business
which would put it at q disadvant-
age with other nations in trading with
Germany was contemplated.
Moreover it was pointed out that
any interference with the opening up
OF German trade would handicap
Germany in the payments she must
make by way Of ieparation.
As the league of nations covenant
Is written into all of the treaties
negotiated at Paris, including those
with Bulgaria and Turkey with which
the United States was not at war. the
United States becomes a party to
those treaties by reason Of the obliga-
tons which II assumes with respect
to the enforcement Of the covenant.
Consequently members Of the
United States peace commission are
sitting IN at the conferences on the
Bulgarian and Turkish treaties in an
advisory capacity.
PACT WITH FRANCE.
Light was thrown on the character
OF the special pact with France which
the president will present to the
senate at later date, believing that
1t calls for a special message.
The president objects to the char
acterization of this agreement as an
alliance. He says it is merely an
agreement, supplemental to the
league OF nations and that the neces-
sity for 1t may disappear entirely in
way to inspire general confidence.
At first. owing to the fact that the
league cannot exert military power
until each nation party to the league
has decided for itself what military
force II wishes to supply
There might be delay which would
tie fatal to France in the event of
many. The special agreement is de-
signed solely to guard against any
such calamity 1t is provided that
the special pact must be submitted
to the league for approval. and this
was agreed on. il was said. to show
that 1t was not intended to make the
pact an agreement outside the league,
but that the idea was that IL should
be supplem entail to the league and to
serve only for such time as the
league might feel II was necessary.
The president was not inclined to
speculate on what would be consid-
cred an 'unprovoked attack" He
thought Il would be difficult to de-
scribe 1t in advance of its happening
but he feels perfectly sure that IL 1t
does happen he will recognize 1t.
The president made II clear that
in his judgment, he could not prop
erly declare rehabilitation an ac-
complished fact until after the treaty
of peace has been ratified.
The comment on this expressed
conviction of the president among the
politicians at the Capitol was that his
position was designed to bring all Of
