Britain Requests
Constantine Not
To Claim Throne
Admiral Kerr, Old Friend of
Monarch, Suggests Prince
George as Acceptable; Ex-
lie to Consider Proposal
Special cable to The Tribune

copyright l"2V, new YORK Tribune Inc.
GENEVA, Nov. 25.-Admiral Mark
Kerr, an old friend of former King
Constantine, has informed the latter,
it is reported, that Britain trusted he
would see the wisdom of abandoning
his claim to the Greek throne. The
hope also was expressed that Cons tan
tine would permit his son. Prince
George, to head the Greek state.
The admiral was formerly British
Naval Attache at Athens and in 1918
was appointed by the British as naval
adviser to the Greek government.
According to the story, the Admiral
broached the subject to Constantine
Immediately after the Greek elections.
The King replied that he would give
serious consideration to the British ar
gument. 1t is believed here that. under
British pressure, he will give up his
claim in favor Of Prince George.
If these reports are true it is likely
that the British will give guarantee as
their part of the compromise to MAIN
tain the integrity of Greece under the
treaty Certainly the British will not
take any steps toward the recognition
of Kemal or permit a bargain with him
for Greek territory.

talists viii be permitted to exploit the

The Soviet government has received
requests from foreign capitalists to af-
ford such rights, the message says, and
Soviet Russia requires offers of expert
cnced forces and large material means
in order to create within the boun-
daries of Russia an inexhaustible
source Of raw materials for manufact-
ure on the spot and abroad. A new
law permits foreign capitalists to work
the natural riches of Russia, the mes
sage declares, receiving in return the
right to export abroad portion of
their production.
The Soviet government promises
foreign capitalists that nothing they
invest in undertakings in Russia shall
be nationalized, coniscated or requi-
sitionod. The capitalists shall have the
right to engage workers and other en-
ployees in accordance with the existing
law on labor in Russia.

RENEWAL OF TREATY
DEBATE IS ASSURED

WASHINGTON, Feb. "A renewal OF,
senate debate on the peace treaty next
week was regarded as virtually assured
today when Republican leaders decided
to join with the Democrats in the move
ment to bring the treaty back into the
open senate.
Senator Lodge, the Republican lead
err, planned to give notice today that he
would move on next Monday to suspend
the rules and proceed to consideration
OF the treaty The Democrats already
had announced that they would make
a similar motion Tuesday Of next week
In the form proposed by Senator
Lodge, the motion will require a two
thirds majority, but the general pre-
diction was more than. that number
would support it. Not only those who
favor ratification in some form, but
some of the treaty's irreconcilable foes
are ready to vote to reopen the de-
bate.
Should Senator Lodges motion fail
however. the motion Of the Democratic
leaders the following day will be in such
form that only a majority would be
necessary to pass on it, the party lead
ers say. The Democrats contend that
no suspension Of the rules would be
necessary to take up the treaty and
that position is expected to he upheld
by vice President Marshall, On appeal
from his decision a majority only would
be needed To sustain him.

Find QUALITY Or
PARK
BLAME FORPR|CE

WASHINGTON, Feb. Soft and oily
pork rather than discrimination appears
to be the principal cause for the lower
prices farmers receive for their hogs
In the southern part of Georgia and Ala
bama and Northern Florida, the federal
trade commission reported today to the
senate, after making an investigation of
the subject in response to a resolution
by Senator Harris, of Georgia. The re-
port shows that the farmers of Florida,
Georgia and Alabama are not only rap
idly increasing their production of hogs.
but that they are also rapidly improving
the quality.
Senator Harris resolution directed the
commission to investigate the methods
of purchase and prices paid for cattle
and swine by persons and corporations
engaged in the meat packing industry,
with particular reference to the discrim-
nations, If any, operating to the disad-
vantage OF live stock producers in the
Southern states
1T was apparent the commission s
report says, that while in most OF the
Southern states the methods of purchase
and prices paid for hogs were more or
less like those prevailing in other parts
of the country, in certain section of
Southern states. the prices paid for
hogs during the year ending July. 1918,
were considerably lower than in the
North and West. The regions in which
hog prices were found to be lower were
practically Identical with the section of
the Southern states which produces a
preponderance of soft and oily pork,
namely. the northern part of Florida,
and the Southern parts of Georgia and
Alabama. 1t was in this section, 1t
may be assumed that the demand for
this inquiry had its origin.
Soft and oily pork has lower mar
ket value than firm pork and is actually
sold at a differential under the firm
product. The bulk Of soft and oily pork
products invariably sell at prices rang
| ing from 81 TO S. per hundred
| weight under Northern and Western
products most similar thereto
| In answering the senate's inquiry the
commission found it necessary to con-
| fine the report particularly to condi.
tons surrounding the hog raising indus
| try in that section Of the Southern
states which produces soft and oily pork
| "A survey soon showed the report
says, that regardless of the particular
circumstances which gave rise to thu
discrimination. cattle could not properly
be involved in the complaint nor coulc
all sections Of the Southern states witt
| respect to hogs"
