TWO PREM|ERS SAID
 TO FAVOR OPENING
 OF TRADE RELATIONS
ENGLISH PAPERS SAY THERE IS NO LONG EN AN ANTI-BOLSHEVIK ORGANIZA- TION-PROBLEM TO BE CONSIDER
 ED BY SUPREME COUNCIL.

London, Feb. 23-Premier Lloyd George and Premier Nit Ii are believed to favor resump- ton of relations with Soviet Russia, although Premier Mil Ierand of France is not inclin- ed to agree to any immediate action,, according to the Daily Mail. The newspaper says this problem must be considered bv the Supreme Allied Council at It's sessions which begin today
 The Chronicle maintains that "au candid minds must recognize that, as no anti-Bo1shevik organization exists any longer, soviet Russia is now Rus sia.''
 Do we want peace" it asks. GOT do we want to continue the blockade, with the risk of mourning the hostiI- ity of the Russian government and military reprisals against the Let's Poles, Rumanians. India and Mesopo- tamia, at the same time depriving the rest of the world of the Russian grain supply? Surely, there is only one answer, peace. which would be altogether better if it could be ob- tained on the proper terms
 Similar views are taken by the Daily News, which says: Since there IS not to be war with Russia, there must be peace. By what right does a handful of poIiti- clans condemn their democracies td needless hardships and the democ- racy of Russia to hardships four fold more acute, by prohibiting a natural and beneficial exchange of needed commodit
 we have to make up our minds frankly to a resumption of relations says the Express. There is only one government with any tuthority in Russia. The choice has become one between ramming ones head against a stone wall and overcoming preju- dice"

 DRIVEN INTO SIDE OF HOUSE
New Yorker Sued For $4, ,0OO Damages In Resulting
 Suit.

On the ground that he drove his automobi1 against a house and tore away part of the building, E. D. Kingsley, a New York motorist. is scheduled to appear in the superior court tomorrow and defend the $4,00O suit brought against him by Hattie O. O1rnstead of Greenwich, owner of the damaged house. Kingsley denies he was guilty of negligence.
 It is claimed that last November while Kingsley was motoring on the Boston Post road his car suddenly left the highway and crashed into the O1nnstead home, which adjoins the highway. The automobile was going so fast that it tore away part of the wall of the dwelling and scared the occu- pants out of several years growth. Mrs. Olmstead says she suffered from mental shock and had to spend large sums for medical attendance. Kings 1ey's claim is that the car left the road because of a sudden derange- ment of the steering gear.

RESERVE HAS ANNOUNCED ITS PEACE
 TIME CREDIT POLICY
WILL EXERT FULL POWER OF RESERVE BANKING SYSTEM IN REGULATING AND CONTROLLING CREDIT SYSTEM-TO
 AID COMMERCE AND INDUSTRY

Washington, Feb. 23-Deter- imitation of the federal reserve board to exert the full power of the reserve banking system in regulating and controlling the credit situation-a course designed to aid commerce and industry m restoring a pre- war equilibrfum-was disclos- ed in the boards annual re- port, made public today.
 w71h this as it's announced peace time policy, the board was prepared to "test the ability of the system to check expansion and to induce healhy liquidation The board explained it was aware of the implied power to recttfy the condition which confronts the country. This power necessarily followed the authority for and em- ploymeHt of an elastic system of re- serve credit and note issue, it was added
 Recommendations also were made to congress for amendment of the re- serve act which would permit reserve banks, with approval or the Iederal reserve board, to establish normal maximum lines of credit accomnoda- ton for member banks. An ascending scale of rates would be provided if money was borrowed above the max mum line. This, the board believed, would induce banks to hold their own large borrowers in check and thus work to the end that credit expansion on a large scale would be stopped.
 Warning was given that the country must guard against too rapid deha- tfon. While the board was in entire svuapathy with measures to overcome this evil, it pointed out that reme- dies employed to correct imitation might create conditions worse than deffation itself.
 ''Defiadon merely for the sake o1 defiation and a speedy return to nor map---deffation merely for the sake of restoring security values and com 1nodfty prices to their pre-war levels. without regard for other eonsequencea would be an insensate proceeding in the existing posture of world affairs" the report said
