before expiration Of the SIX hours time
limit.
Indeed the last half Of the race was
a race Of the defender against time,
with the fate Of the contest resting on
the wind, for the challenger WAS about
one mile astern when the American
sloop flashed over the line.
While waiting for Shamrock to fin

down to Resolute, and all hands, led
by Sir Thomas Upton, gave the victor
three cheers. The spectators feet
gave the defender such a noisy well
come a. she crossed the line that it
could be heard 10 miles away on shore.
"7est Boat Won," Upton Says.
Sir Thomas Upton announced imme-
diately after the race that he would
build new challenger and come
across again In 1922 to have another

He will accompany the military COM

Washington Secs Danger.
Washington Russia's proposal for
g., conference with the Allies in Lon
don was regarded unofficially here as
a skillful maneuver to effect q quasi
recognition of the Soviet regime. Of
ficially the State department was WITH
out knowledge of the Soviet sugges-
ton, but it was clear that unless some
more urgent reason than Is apparent
is given, the United States will be in
no haste to accept an invitation to join
in such a conference, even though one
were extended.
invitation Is Expected.
1t was assumed here that the United
States would be asked to participate,
but there is now NO indication that it
will dispatch official representatives.
The prevailing opinion appears to be
that the specific issue-the cessation
OF war with Poland-might better be
considered FIRST by the principals.
Although the United States probably
will not be represented in this confer
ence, the situation is expected to
change the policy of hands off," which
it has maintained relative to European
affairs since the Versailles treaty be-
came subject of portracted discus
sion in the Senate.
