Relief Is Ready

Washington, July 30-American re-
lief for starving Russian children
could begin As hours after Americans
imprisoned or detained in Russia
were released and out of Russia, Sec
retary Hoover said today. There could
be no assurance that the Americans
had been released, he added, until
they were out of Russia. Confirmation
of the reported decision of Soviet au-
thorities to release the Americans had
not been received in any official way.
Secretary Hoover was still awaiting
a detailed reply to an officer of his
aid, transmitted through Maxim Cor
ky and the state department had re-
ceived no reply to Secretary Hughes
recent curt demand that American
prisoners be released. Mr.. Hoover
f. intimated, however. that reply such
as that indicated in press adyices to
Riga would be satisfactory the Sec
ond, he stipulated, Americans were
out of Russia.
In that event, Mr.. Hoover said, the
American relief association would be
willing to send representative to
Riga to take up with the Russian Of
ficials the question of food distribution.
In event of a satisfactory reply from
the Russian relief organization would
j begin immediate operations and it
would be only a question of transpor-
tation to start food rolling into Rus
sian famine areas.

PLANS ARE LAID
FOR TREATY With
GERMANY BY THE
UNITED STATES
American Commissioner in Berlin
Said to Have Completed in
formal Arrangements. Leading
To Agreement on Basis Of
Treaty Which VIII Be Prepared
In Near Future.

Berlin, July 30.-The German for
eign office expresses belief that the
negotiations which have been pro
ceeding. for the last three weeks be-
tween Ellis Loring Dresel. the Amer
lean commissioner in Berlin. and DIR.
Rosen, the foreign minister, have pro
gressed sufficiently to warrant the
conclusion that a general working
basis has been established for the
conclusion of formal peace treaty
between Germany and the United
States at an early date.
1t is understood in well informed
quarters that the German government
has assented to propositions submit
ted by the American state department
through Mr.. Dresel in the way of in
formal inquiries based upon the essen
'tial principles enunciated in the Por-
ter Knox peace resolution. None of
these. it is said had been opposed
by the W'irth cabinet, which is de-
clared to be wholly in accord with
the American attitude ON the preroga-
tives and privileges and various rights
under the treaty of Versailles to
which the United States is entitled
by virtue of Americas participation
in the war.
The informal pourparlors here have
not touched upon economic features
of the proposed treaty. but have dealt
with the cardinal points upon which
the United States places emphasis in
connection with it's Interpretation of
the Versailles treaty. The conclusions
reached as a result of Mr.. Dresel's
negotiations are being formulated in
the manner desired by the Washing
ton authorities and an unofficial mem
orandum, it is forecast probably will
be ready for publication within q few
days.
Upon this memorandum, it is un-
derstood, the formal treaty will be
based The question as to who shall
be the German envoy in Washington
meanwhile remains in abeyance, as
the German government prefers to
await Americas initiative with re-
spect to the appointment of her rep
resentative. The proposition is be-
ing made that an economic commits
sion in charge of la professional dip
lomatist be dispatched to Washing
ton for a beginning, ...

AFTER EIGHT DAYS
MRS. STONE RESCUED
ON MOUNTAIN LEDGE
Marooned on Side Of Chasm While
Searching for Body of
Her Husband

Spray Falls, Alberta, July 30.-Mrs.
w. E. Stone, resting in an improvised
camp on Mount canon, described to
day how the shrill sound of her voice,
caught up by the multitude of peaks
and craigs and re-echoing. saved her
life after her husband, President OF
Purdue University, of Lafayette. Ind,
had perished in climbing the noun
tain and after she had lain eight days
on a perilous ledge.
The searching party had figured out
the probable course that DR.. and Mrs
Stone would take in the attempt to
ascend Mountain canon. From point
of vantage the searchers had secured
every side with their glasses without
a sight of anything. Then, as they
decided to go on one member of the
party thought he heard the cry of a
woman from afar. Listening intently
the Searchers heard it again. A
more minute inspection with their
glasses revealed far below and across
the canyon the form of woman
An hour later Mrs. Stone was res;
cued. ''- - rt
At different periods she had raised
her voice with all the vigor she had
expecting that some time it might be
heard and she would be rescued

scaled mountain, the goal which he
was striving to make when his death
occurred. Mr.. and Mrs. Stone ex

top and then get back to the food

DR.. Stone was climbing above
hopefully, cheerfully and unhesitat-
ingly, when, without word of warn
ing, a farewell of any kind, not even
q sign, he plunged over her head to
the abyss below, He fell fully 5000
feet in the opinion of his wife. She
saw the body strike a rock bound
from it from cliff to cliff and on down
the side of the mountain.
She began a hasty descent in an
effort to get to her husband. She
fought her way down. the side of the
mountain and when found was 5000

Newspaper Correspondent, From
|. Baltimore Released From Bol-
shevik Prison Through Effort.
Of Senator France-Russ Re-
lief Committee Replies to
Hoover.

Riga, July 30.-The offer of Her
bert Hoover to aid Russia in relieving
suffering due to famine on condition
that all Americans now held prisoners
in Russia be released, has been ac-
cepted by the Russian authorities,
who suggest immediate negotiations
in order to relieve speedy assistance,
according to dispatch from the
Rosta News Agency of Moscow, re-
ceived here today.
The text of the reply made in the
name of Leo Kameneff, head of the
Non Partisan's non political famine
relief committee is us follows:
"The Russian government upon
learning of the proposals made by
sHerbert Hoover, in the name of the
American Relief Association finds
them quite acceptable, including the
question of release Of American pris-
oners.
I The Russian government considers
il necessary to fix, as soon as possible
the exact conditions upon which the
immediate relations are to begin
Its humane intentions guarantees
the feeding, medical aid and clothinng
of the million children and invalids.
For this purpose the Russian govern.
ment considers it useful that Dr.
Brown, or any other person author
lied for the negotiations, should come
to MOSCOW, Riga or Reval.
The Russian Soviet government
expects quick reply stating the
place and time of the negotiations.
(Signed "Bameneff.'
The offer of Herbert Hoover as head
of the Aemican relief delegation to
see that aid was given Russia's sick
and starving was made in a telegram
addressed to Maxim Gorky, in re-
sponse to Gorly's recent appeal for
aid The prime condition was laid
down that the Americans held pris-
oners in Russia must be Immediately
released. 1t was stipulated also that
proper administrative conditions must
lie made by Soviet Russia, including
the full and free liberty of movement
from the relief administration repre-
sentatives. The reference in the Rus
sian reply to ''the million children
and invalades" and properly refers to
the passage in Mr.. IIoovers telegram
in which he stated that the relief adj
ministration would be willing to fur
nish the necessary supplement of food,
clothing and medical supplies to a
million children in Russia as rapidly
as organization can be affected.
