URGENTLY NEEDED IN

To Seek Funds From Congress
on Return.

PARIS, July 3.-Secretary OF State
Lansing feels that his presence in Wash
ington in the near future will be neces-
sary because of the greatly increased
duties OF the State Department, due to
the problems growing out of the peace
settlement. II was for this reason that
he decided recently to return to the
United States. fixing his departure for
the middle OF July and planning after
his return to make an appeal to Congress
for funds TO enable the Department prop
erly to cope with its new tasks.
While Secretary Lansing hopes that
some one selected to succeed him as head
OF the American peace mission will
reach Paris before the time OF his de-
parture he will not await the arrival OF
his successor.

foreign trade council star also are nee
essary.

COSSACKS HOLD UP
US. CONSUL IN SIBERIA
Harris's Trunks Broken Open
as Machine Guns Threaten.

Correspondence Of the Associated Press.
TOXIC, July Ernest W. Harris
American Consul-General at Irkutsk-
had a disagreeable experience recently
at Dauria. according to Siberian advices,
when his baggage was forcibly opened
by troops OF Gen. semenofr. the Cossack
leader.
Mr. Harris was travelling eastward
from Omsk on a special train to which
his private car was attached. Semenoffs
men, composed of Russians, Buriats,
Mongolisns and Chinese, boarded the
train and insisted upon inspecting the
baggage of Mr.. Harris and his party.
This demand was refused, and the train
was held at the station for six hours
pending a decision of Semenors officers
as to whether they should open the
baggage.
Guards were kept on board Mr.. Har-
ris's car during the interval. and at least
500 troops were drawn up beside TIRE
train with machine guns stationed 80 as
TO bear directly on the American Consul
Generals car.
The Cossack commander finally de-
cided that the baggage must be inspect
ed. and at midnight his men broke open
all the trunks, boxes and bags in the
possession OF the American official party
and made a hasty search OF their con
tents. It does not appear that they
levied any duties or took away any prop
erty. The baggage was closed by the
troops before leaving.
Dauria station Is on the section of the
Transsiberian Railway that Is under
supervision of the Japanese.

FRENCH ACTION Is

is always the possibility Of bringing on
war which might appear on the sur
face to be unprovcked, and the United
States would have TO follow events in
France closely so as to be sure on which
side any alleged provocation lay.
Regarding the second point, there Is
much doubt here as to whether II doesn't
weaken the case of the treaty with the
Senate. inasmuch as It's ratification
would mean that the Senate recognized
the council Of the League Of Nations as
body having power TO override the
Senates own wishes. In the first place,
even though ratified by both the French
and American parliaments as evidence
both bodies desire such an engagement.
the majority of the council, composed
Of foreign nations, must say whether II
is valid, this marking. as even foreign
students OF the American Constitution
point out. the first virtual surrender by
the Senate of its treaty making powers
to an outside body.
Second. even though the Senate might
wish to abrogate the treaty Its power to
do so Is conditional upon a majority OF
foreign nations In the league council
giving consent.
Paris Doubts senate's Action.
This is already raising serious doubts
here as to whether the Senate will
give consent TO any such curtailment Of
its traditional and constitutional pre-
negatives Unless the Senate over
whelmingly favors the league covenant
II is scarcely expected that II will APP
prove the treaty in any such form as
drafted.
Premier Clemenceau wanted stra light
out treaty at first, but President WILL
son insisted on the league clause, to
which Clemenceau had to yield. French
opinion Is that the treaty would have
n much better chance of ratification IL
the President had not inserted this clause
giving a majority OF the league the right
to override the Senate.
Presumably neither France nor
America has the right TO vote in the
council on such a question, which would
give four nations the right to pass upon
the validity of the treaty. all. pre-
sumably. being European Powers.
Italians are not taking kindly to the
treaty and there is some doubt as to
where Italy would stand in such a vote

goods. started from St Nazaire yester-
day for Novorossysk, a non-Bolshevik
port on the eastern coast OF the Black

across the Black Sea to feed the starv-

This experiment in bartering. which is
being conducted by the American Relief
Administration and financed by the
American Committee for Relief in the

interest by Peace Conference economists
who believe that a return to bartering
will be necessary in many parts Of the
world because of the depreciation Of
currency and the difficulties of exchange.
Novorossysk Is the chief port for tho
Government of Gen. Denekine. which
has its headquarters at Elkaterinodar.
The Denekine Government controls the
Kuban wheat district, which has a large
surplus of grain and no place to mar
ket IL because of the lack OF railway
anc steamship transportation. Money in

POPE IS ANXIOUS
REGARDING MISSIONS
Expresses Hope Peace Clause
Will Be Fair in Respect Of
German Colonies.
BY the Associated Press,

RoME. July 3.-Pope Benedict to-day
delivered a short allocution to the
Sacred College regarding steps taken
for the protection OF Catholic missions.
especially in former German colonies.
The Pope said that as soon as It was
realised some Of the clauses Of the
Peace Treaty infringed upon the rights
and interests OF Catholic missions he
wrote to Peace Conference delegates
asking them to modify those clauses in
a spirit of justice.
More than twenty Cardinals, many
Bishops and Archbishops and other dig
nitaries attended the consistory. Mgr.
Bonzano. apostolic delegate to the United
States, was in attendance.
The Pope at the consistory appointed
Cardinal Boschi as Bishop OF Frascati
and Mgr Cadi to be patriarch of Antioch
on the Greek Meichite rite. He also
confirmed all Archbishops and Bishops
appointed by brief since the last con-
sistory. this being the frst one held
since the war began.
Discussing the mission OF Archbishop
Bonaventura Cerretti TO the peace con-
ference the Pope said: I'VE sent to
Paris the most distinguished prelate OF
the Roman Curia to look after the inter.
ests Of the Catholic missions. Now I am
very happy to inform you that owing to
the spirit OF fairness shown by the per-
sonages at the peace conference our re-
quests In greater part have been salts
fed. I hope these same personages will
be guided by the same spirit Of fairness
In putting into execution the provisions
which have been adopted concerning
Catholic missions not only in the Interest
OF religion but also in the interest OF
humanity and civilization.
"As hostilities now finally are ended
we implore the Divine Benevolence to
grant our wishes. namely. that the block
ade. which caused 30 much famine and
distress. be raised Immediately. that ali
prisoners be repatriated as soon as pos
sible, and last. that all people and nations
shall reunite in bonds Of Christian char
ity, a spirit we have never ceased to
inculcate and without which any treaty
OF peace will be valueless."
