gave evidence that he is looking
strictly after the interest of the city

Berlin, July 2.-The eventuality of =

An anti-bolshevist Russian officer OF

1T must be remembered that the
Gallipoli peninsula is no longer forth

be held 81 easily by the forces now

We're In allegiance awaiting the return
of President Harding from his Fourth
of July outing at the home of Senator
Frelinghuysen at Raritan, \. j.
Meantime executive and legislative
leaders of the administration were
busy Specializing on what form the
,eace program will take now that the
last bar to its formulation has been
removed.
A wide variance of views exists on
the subject but the is that
the initial steps in the construction of
the program will be as follows:
1-Promulgation of Il presidential
proclamation declaring hostilities at
an end.
Notification To Germany and Aus
tria of the American action with q
uccluratiou 81 TINS countr!s willing
ness to resume diplomatic relations
with them.
3-Iteenll of the American troops
from the Rhine provinces.
When proclaimed, the presidential
proclamation, together with copies of

Warled to Germany and Austria by the

country formally considers the var at
m end, although it has not signed The
Versailles treaty and is ready to re-
sumo peace-time relations.
While the State Department is act
ing, the secretary of war, ii is eX-
pected, will be making preparations
for the return of the American troops
on the Rhine. The administration
leaders agree that this move does not
necessarily follow, they are confident
that it will be done, as it would be u
grave breach of International etiquette.
they point out, if this country CON
tinued 10 maintain troops in Il coun-
try with which it is at peace.
Negotiations of II treaty of amity
and commerce with Germany and Aus
tria remains as the final step. Here
leaders are divided in their opinion OF
the course the administration will pur-
sue. Some believe that it Will cover
only the conditions for the renewal
of trade and commerce, while others
think it virtually will be a separate
treaty of peace.
The first group consists of those
who have not abandoned hope for the
ratification of the Versailles treaty In
some form. Tn the other hand leaders
of the second group are confident there
will be no effort to revive the Yer
sailles treaty.

FROM REPUBLICAN, ADMIN.
lSTRATlON BILL.
Western Newspaper Union News Service

Washington, June 3O.-The admins
tratiOn's permanent tariff bill has
been introduced in the House of Rep
resentatives and has been made public.
No explanatory statements accom-
panied the Introduction of the lei
ure as heretofore has been customary
and no official estimate was made of
the reyenue it is expected to return.
Unofficial estimates by members of
the ways and means committee, how
ever, placed the expected return as
high as $7O0.OOO,OOO a year. The
Payne-Aldrich law in the normal pre-
war years produced a little more than
$500, 900, 00O.
Examination of the bill shows that
in some cases the rates proposed are
higher than corresponding rates of
the Payne-Aldrich law while others
are correspondingly lower.
In comparison with the Underwood
tariff law of the Wilson administra-
ton the new bill removes many ar
ticles from the free list, although it
leaves a large list free of duty, includ-
ing print paper, wood pulp, leather
and harness and agricultural imple-
ments. 1t raises the duties on the
great bulk of imports already being
taxed. 1t has made no notable ad-
ditions to the free list.
Comparison of the wool schedule
with schedule X of the Payne-Aldrich
bill, over which IA bitter fight was
waged in Congress, showed material
In the items of hose and gloves the
duty fixed by the committee was 30
cents Il pound and % per cent ad val
orem duty in addition, while in the
Payne bill the rate was Al cents Il
