 the action already taken by the allied
 and associated powers. The exact boundary between Austria and the
 new state is to be fixed by field
 commission of seven members, five
 nominated by the principal allied and
 associated powers and one each by
 Austrian and Czecho- -Slovak. Czecho- Slovakia agrees to embody in a treaty
 with the principal allied and associa-
 ted powers such provisions as may be deemed necessary to protect racial, religious or linguistic minorities and to assure freedom of transit and ecui- table treatment for the commerce of
 other nations.
 The Serb Croat- -Slevene state Austria: Military recognizes the com plete independence of the Serb-Croat- Sloven state and renounces her rights
 and titles. A similarly appointed field
 commission including member nom- mated, by the .Serbo- Croak- -Slovene state is to fix the exact boundary. The
 question of the basin of Klagenfurt 1 is reserved. The Serb Croat- -Slovene
 state agrees to a similar treaty for
 the protection of minorities and free
 dom of transit.

 similar for protection of minorities

MEXICO IN WAY OF PROGRESS ON THIS CONTINENT Speakers at Pan American Conference Deplores
 Situation. 2l REPUBLICS OF
 AMERICAS CONFER More Than 800 Delegates at the Meet. ing to Discuss the Business

Washington, June 2.-With twenty resented. and with nearly 800 dele. gates present, the second Pan-Amer- ican commercial conferences was opened today at the Pan-American un- ion. The president of the United States, the president of Chile, Ecua- dor, Guatemala. Bolivia and Urguay the provisional president of Venezuela and the secretary of foreign affairs of Salvador, sent cablegrams of greet ing to the conference.
 Assistant Secretary of State Phil lips, who is acting secretary of state in the absence of Acting Secretary Polk Vice President Marshal and Speaker Gillett of the house of rep resentatives, the Chilean ambassador and the Bolivian ministers, and the president of the United States cham Der of commerce, were the principal the conference.
 Speaker Gillett declared that the present condition of Mexico" was to- day "the greatest impediment to full fellowship and international trade on this hemisphere"
 Mexico An Impediment.
 The Chilean ambassador and the Bo- livian minister took as the keynote of their speeches the necessity of con- fidence and mutual understanding and trust among the countries of the Americas. Speaker Gillett expanded their suggestions.
 "The people make the law, and the people must obey the law until the people, in legal manner change the law,' said Speaker Gillett. "We want the supremacy of the law and we all fear the despotism of the mob just as much as the despotism of the ty- rant. America has not the slightest feeling of envy or hostility to any of our brethern on this continent I think it would be we'll for us to look on both sides of the shield and I hope you will, and it has seemed to me that it would not be wise if an as- sembly of this kind should meet and not a word be said publicly of what I am sure we all have in mind as the greatest impeachment today to full fel- lopship and international trade on this hemisphere, and that is, the present condition of Mexico"

KIRBY BELIEVES :.
 CONGRESS IS DRY

Little Rock, June 2.-Senator Kir- by, acknowledging receipts of a reso- lution by the First Christian church, protesting against the repeal of war time prohibition, writes:
 "I have supported all prohibition legislation and expect to continue to do so in the confident belief that it best promotes the public welfare. do not expect to vote to repeal the pro- hibition law nor do think that there is any probability of it's being done. A majority of both houses are in fa- vor of prohibition, understand. and I do not think the recommendation of the president will have the effect to change them."

LEAGUE MERELY PLOT TO HELP
 AUTOCRAC|ES? Senator Johnson Charges Purpose Isn't to Main
 tain Peace. ENGLAND, JAPAN
 ENTRAP THE U. $. California DeyOtes Two Hours to the DeHunGiatiOn of the
 Covenant.

Washington. June "A charge that old world powers. led by Great Brit ain and Japan, are attempting, through the league of nations to trap the United States into perpetually guar anteeing their integrity, was made ir the senate today by Senator Johnson republican of California.
 The league proposal, declared the senator, has behind it no serious pur- pose of maintaining peace, but is in stead proposal to maintain auto cratic power He asserted the Paris delegates dared not make good their peace professions by writing into the league covenant a provision to leave war declarations to a popular vote of the peoples affected.
 In a speech of more than two hours Senator Johnson charged also that the provision dealing with the Mon- roe doctrine was inserted in the re- vised covenant of the league for the purpose of making the doctrine in- valid; that the American delegates in Paris had written the "blackest page in all our history" by approving the transfer of Shantung to Japan and that in the background of the AngloyJapanese offensive and defens- i've alliance.
 The California senator was not in- terrupted during his address, and after it's conclusion, his resolution asking for the complete text of the peace treaty was temporarily laid aside. It probably will not come up again until Wednesday.
