M'CUMBER REPLIES
TO CHARGES MADE
BY SEN. KENYON

Washington. May 2Q-Charges Of
son of California that the senate
steering committee had, sidetracked
the meat packer regulation and other
bills drew a reply today from Senator
McCumber of North Dakota COM
mittee chairman. He. made the
counter assertion, that Senator Kenyon
had discussed irrelevant subjects and
that Senator johnson had spent six
months away from: the senate in his
presidential campaign.
Senator McCumber denied that the
steering committee had or could
condemn any bills and said the
complaints of the two senators came
with poor grace. Senator johnson,
he added. would have plenty OF time
after the convention" at Chicago to
devote his attention to senate business.

Enzelf tby the Bolsheviki, with the
evacuation of that town Shy their
troops. has created stir here, and
the near eastern position is extremely
grave it is declared in some quarters.
Newspapers ask what the British
government is going to do. in view of
its agreement with Persia which was
concluded last year, and it il, remark
cd that although that convention did
not commit Great Britain 70 defend
Persia, it laid upon this country a Sc
rious moral responsibility.
"One half the population of Persia
is suspicious of the British agreement
and the other half assumes, rather
wistfully that our promises mean ac-
tive help" says the Times in COM
menting on the situation.
This newspaper sharply attacks the
British government because of its past
attitude toward Persia and complains
1t does not seem to have any clear
practical policy, now that the long
threatened invasion is begun bp the
lBolsheviki.
The Persian issue. it adds, cannot
be considered apart from that OF
Mesopotamia. We are not prepared
to assent any arrangement that would
saddle ION British taxpayers the cost
Of holding Mesopotamia as far north
as .Mosul." o..
Iss The view is taken in some quarters
that the Bolsheviki probably will push
on to Teseran, there being neither
British nor Persian troops strong
enough to resist them in their .ad.
vance. If they reach the Persian
capital a part of the population, ac-
cording to some views, is likely to rise
in support of them. The Persian
shah returned to his capital from his
