WILL CONTINUE
 OLD TRIBUNAL
 AT THE HAGUE
Commission on Court of the Nations May Compromise
 On Its Form

THE HAGUE, June 22.-Discussion of the commission of jurists today strengthened the theory that the ex- isting Hague arbitration tribunal will not be abolished if a high court of nations is formed, but on the contrary that the tribunal will not only func- ton as formerly. but have a consider able part in selecting the high court judges.
 The members of the commission took under consideration today the possibility of dovetailing the Root Philliemore plan with the plan pro posed by Baron Des Champs. for which a method was suggested by Mir Root.
 Though the efforts of the jurists working on the draft plan of the court of nations are entirely unaffected by politics. the delegates have been sub iected to the usual flood of letters from organizations seeking to force national aspirations into the lime lights. All the letters of course, are cast aside. as the members are firm ly determined that their duty Is merely to form a court.
 The first Hague tribunal arbitration since the war will take place in Sep tember next. with MT. Root as chair man Of the arbiters. This has to do with a litigation begun before the war involving Spain, Frence, Portu- gal and Italy in the question of re- sponsibility for damage to churches and property in Portugal during the revolution.

U. :. ROLLS UP TRADE BALANCE IF r BILLIONS AGAINST EUROPE
Exports and Imports Show Amazing Increases During
 Past Two Years

Greatest Gain Comes From Allied and Neutral Lands

 WASHINGTON, June 22. - Since the beginning of the world war in 1914, the United States has rolled up a trade balance of approximately $17,000, 100000 against the world This exceeds by several billions of dollars the total balance in favor of the Unit ed States from 1875 to 1914. Depart ment of commerce figures today show that the trade balance made in favor of the United States in the fiscal year ending in 1914 one month before the war begun, was only $470,O00,OO0. During the first year of the war it was $1,094, ,419, 600 and in the next year ending June 30. 1916, it was s2,- 1S5, 599,375.
 During the succeeding year the to- tai was $3,53O, 693. .209. Meantime the United States had entered the strug- gle and in the year ending June 30, 191S---the first full fiscal year of America's' participation-the balance was only s2.974,O55 973. In the next year enulnB laSl June ou, nOWeNeI, it was S4,136, 562, SIS
 During the first II months of this fiscal year the balance was only $e,- 7SS, ,451, 6O2 but exports were larger in these II months than in any other ifs cal year in the nations history, ta- taling s7.474 19S,S49, as against the previous 12 months records of ST. 252,2S2, ,6S6 made during the last ifs cal year.
 At the same time that Americas s export trade began to advance by leaps and bounds, the import trade also showed an enormous increase. reaching a new high record of $4,- 5,741,747, during the II months of the present fiscal year. The previous high record was $3.0S5, Z20,06S last year.
 Most of the favorable trade bal ance of the United States has been against the allied and neutral coun tries of Europe. Many of the South American and North American coun tries, and some in the far east have a balance against the United States.

possible that the president might
 seek to get the convention to en-
 dorse his course as to Armenia
 and if so, it was said, the Ne
 braska leader could be expected
 to exert his influence against
 such action.
 Pending arrival of Senator Glass. whom will reach the convention city during the week, the few party lead CTS and delegates already on the ground have been exchanging only gossipy comment and expression of personal opinion of issues to coTne up. There have been no confcr lers as yet and there is little a. .sity among workers for various candidates for the presidential nomination to distract attention from the platform outlook.
 Davis Opens Office
 Headquarters for John w Davis of West Virginia were opened today and the first literature in behalf ot the claims of candidates was put out by his supporters. Some poster work for Governor Edwards of New Jersey was also done. supplementing that for Attorney General Palmer. but Presidential Row has not as yet be come even a shadow of what it will be or what it was during the Repub- lican convention at Chicago
 Aspirants Are Absent
 In any event, there Is little possi- bility that candidates headquarters will take as prominent part in the San Francisco convention as was the case at Chicago. None of the candi- dates themselves are expected to be here. The Chicago convention was unique in that respect. with Senator Johnson, General Wood, Governor Lowden and others of the active con tenders for the nomination in per sonal charge of their campaigns. while Senator Harding. the party nominee. also was on the scene and shared in conferences which led to his selection.

The preliminary convention discus sion in progress here, while wholly informal in character, has shown a striking unanimity of opinion on two points thus far. The first of these is that the platform struggle will be the real fight of the convention, the second that the prohibition plank will be the chief issue in that fight, outrivaling the League of Nations declaration in interest among dele gates.
 On the league issue, w. J. Bryan already is standing directly opposed to President Wilson's views as to the party attitude. That dates back to the Jackson. day dinner, when MT. Wilson urged that the Democrats ell ter the campaign on the issue of rat ification of the covenant without ma terial reservation. The former sec retary of state stood just as strongly for acceptance of the Republican res ervations as basis for notifications, in order to keep the. covenant out of the campaign.
 If MT. Burleson's statement is to be accepted as presenting the presi- dents views on prohibition, it was said, it Is now evident that Bryan and the administration forces will clash over that plank in the party platform. MT. Bryan's views have been known to be rigidly against any
 
 weakness of the prohibition laws. ....There is also, it was said,
 third point on which the presi-
 dent and his former secretary of
 state might lock horns at the
 convention. 1t was recalled that
 when the president asked con
 gress for authority to accpet
 mandate over Armenia under the
 League of Nations, MT. Bryan
 promptly issued a statement in
 flat opposition to such pro-
 gram. It has been regarded as

SPENDS 6DAYS
IN GLASS BOX

Cambridge, Eng, May 4.-Joseph
Bancroft, reader Of physiology at
Kings college here, has lived for six
days in a Theoretically sealed glass
box.
The experiment arose out Of 30
year-old controversy as to whether
it is possible to calculate the amount
of oxygen in the blood from know
ledge of the amount of oxygen in the
breath, The test was also made to
demonstrate whether it was neces-
sary that airmen should have oxygen
apparatus when flying at great
heights. It proved that oxygen was
necessary to flying men but it did
not show to what height they could
fly with safety.
While in the box Bancroft kept i
record of his sensations and made
scientific observations. He said he
suffered from sleeplessness but other
wise did not experience much incon-
venience except on the last day when
the atmosphere became extremely
rarified. He then had headaches and
nausea. He was watched continually
while in the box. He took food and
slept in two small compartments fit
ted up with wicker chairs, table,
a small bed and bicycle on which
he exercised every morning.

INSIDE HISTORY
OF BUREAU AND
BANK KEPT DARK
No Responsible and Public
Checks Made on Large Sums
Carried by Them

Two of the greatest mysteries in
the state of North Dakota are the
inner workings OF the Bank of North
Dakota and the workmen's cOmpensa
tion bureau.
Neither one Of these state owned
institutions has any direct supervi-
sion by elected state officials, suc.,
as the state auditor and ever since
their organization last year, their
operations have been shrouded in
mystery.
Recent decisions of the state su.
preme court have prevented any re
spOnsible check Of the financial con
dition of either of these two under
takings. Karl kOsitZky, state auditor
once attempted to examine the books
of the Bank of North Dakota, but
after Kositzky had pried into the
banks secrets for day or two, he
was kept out of the institution by
court order.
No Check on Funds
When the bank and the bureau
were in need of funds to pay their
employees when they first commenced
operations, they received their pay
rolls in the customary manner through
the state auditors and state treas
urer's offices. This regularity ceased
in the banks case on November 20,
1919, and in the case of the bureau
on October 81, 1919. Since that time,
the responsible state officials are ut
terly in the dark as to expenditures
or receipts by either of these two
state departments.
1t is regarded as a certainty that
through the influence of S. S. Nc
Donald, surviving member of the
workmen's compensation commission,
and F. w. Cathro, director general
and manager of the Bank of North
Dakota, that the employees of those
state activities are among the best
paid in the capitol. The expense ac.
counts Of these two institutions, 1t
is believed, would also stagger the
farmers who have to foot the bills.
