Is Greatest in World

Henry Woodford, secretary Of the
Royal Botanical Gardens, Regents
Park, London, inspected the New York
Botanical Garden in Bronx Park yes
serday. The New York exhibit, he de-
c!ared, was the equal of any in the
world, and in gneral planning and in
magnificence of buildings was superior
cousin, Chester Dale, Of 81 West Ninth
Street, and was the guest of the local
botanical society yesterday at rcccp-
ton.
II had been looking forward to visit
ing your Botanical Garden more than
anything else within recent years: y"
said Mr.. Woodford, but l was already
familiar with the progress you were
making, having received literature and
photographs from time to time which
were source Of much interest to me.
"It was very evident TO me that
the New York Botanical Garden is
dens in London. You seem to have a
perfect system Of record keeping, and
as to your magnificent administrative
ana museum buildings, | have never
seen anything like them"
The New York Gardens are far su-
perior in equipment and modern day
appliances for the carrying-on of botan-
ical study. he said Some of the exhibits,
particularly those of cacti and palms, he
pronounced extraordinary.
Mr.. Woodford was received at the
Gardens by II. A. Gleason, first assist
ant in administration, and DR.. Gilman
Thompson. director of the board Of man
ayers, Mr.. Gleason told him that a
shortage of skilled gardeners was one
of the biggest problems the New York
Botanical Garden was confronted with.
The same problem prevails in England,
Mr. Woodford said, becadse Of the low
pay for this class Of labor.

Canada Defers Naming
Minister to Washington
Interests of Dominion Are Left
to Sir Auckland Geddes,
British Ambassador

WASHINGTON, Sept. 20. - Appoint
ment Of a special Canadian Minister
Plenipontentiary to the United States
is understood to have been Indefinitely
postponed. Canada's interests in this
country thus will be left In the hands
cf Sir Auckland Geddes, the British
Ambassador, who because of his long
residence in that British comm onwealth
is regarded by the Canadians as having
full knowledge of the aims and needs
of their country.
Canadian minister were first taken
some months ago, the Canadians feel
ing that because of tho urgency in re-
building the trade and economic rela-
tons between the Dominion and the
United States there was pressing need
TOR direct diplomatic representation of
Canada in Washington The project
progressed with the sanction of the
British government and the Canadian
Parliament made the appropriations
tor the maintenance of such an estab-
llshment in Washington.
1t Is understood, however, that sus-
pension Of the plan is one result of the
recent visit to Canada of Sir Auckland
Geddes.
An element which has been consid-
ered IN connection with direct Cana
DIAN representation in Washington is
that Australia, South Africa and othe r
british colonies and dominions might
desire similar representation. In fact,
thcre. was movement in some Of the
co4onles for such representation and
the British Foreign Office was said to
have taken the view that inefficiencv
might result from having several
colonial ministers in the United States.

Reds Offer More Territory

flNA, sept. ~ (By Inc Associated
Press) ).-Bolshevl representatives at
the Peace Conference here have sub
mtted to Polish delegates suggestions
for a boundary line between Poland
ard states adjoining to the east. At
many points it is east Of the line
fixed at the Versailles conference.
Beginning at the north, the line
would start at the frontier of Lithu-
ania and White Russia, at the con-
huence of the SvislocZ and Niemen
rivers. 1t would run then slightly to
the southwest, passing through Svis-
locz, Rudnja, Belovezh, Kamenetz-
Litovsk, Brest- -Litvosk, then south
through Pistcha, Ludomil Vladimir
Vohynsk and Dribvotza
These towns would be east Of the
boundary, and thus would be in either
White Russia or Ukraine.
At Dribvotza, the line would turn
southeast along the former frontier
be veen Russia and Austro- Hungary
to the Dniester. This would include
within the limits of Poland all of east
ern Galicia.
Soviet delegates propose that hostili-
ties cease within forty-eight hours
after the preliminary treaty is signed
and that Polish troops Withdraw ap-
proximately fifteen miles west of the
demarcation line. They undertake to
agree that the Russians will withdraw
the same distance. This strip of terri
tory would be a neutral zone during the
final peace arrangements.
