Poles May Recruit None
But Own Nationals Here
Fact That America Is Not at
War With the BolsI,eviki
Would Hold UD Program

From THE Tribuaes Hrashinaton Bureau
WASHINGTON, jan 6.-In reply to
questions put to the War and State de-
partments to-day regarding reports
that Poland is recruiting persons in
this country for military service, it was
sad that no obstacles would be placed
IN the way of the recruiting of Polish
nauonals Explicit permission, how
ever, Will have TO be procured bv the
follsh authorities to recruit any other
persons IN the United States. Until a
request for this privilege is received
state Department officials declined to in
dlcatc what action would be taken bv
the government
Officials said that It was contrary 10
law Tor any nation to arm any individ-
uals in this country for military service
either here or abroad, although if was
recalled that during the war against
Germany a Polish legion, composed en-
trely of Poles who had become natural
lzed Americans, was recruited. Trained
and equipped here for service against
the Central Empires.
The fact that the United States is not
officially at war with the Bolsheviki,
some officials said, may operate against
any recrutng move that may be con-
templated by Poland in this country.
1t was said that Americans desiring
to go to Poland may be issued American
passports, and that after reaching there
they may surrender their passports and
JON the Polish forces. This step. how
ever; would have the effect of cXpatriat-
ing them, and their return to the status
or American citizens might be difficult.

Water Power Rights
Governor Miller, in his talk with the

requested Attorney General Charles y.
Newton to institute court action TO de-
termine If the Federal government. un-
der the provisions of the Esch act has
the constitutional right to allot boun
dary waters for power purposes. In
the opinion Of the Governor. the state
mas an inherent proprietary interest
IN the use OF the waters in the Niagara
and st. Lawrence rivers for power pur-
poses. He does not dispute the au
thorlty OF the Federal government to
exercise control over streams for pur-
poses Of navigation or national de-
fcnse.
1t is expected a decision will be
reached by the United States Supreme
court within year and that there will
be no interference with present power
development while the suit is pending.

development question to the courts is
the initial step toward the formulation

New York Office
Comptroller Ready to Aid
Governor in His Plan of
Economy; Big Staff Here
Speculates Over Future

State Comptroller James A. Wen
dell at his New York Office in the
Woolworth Building yesterday, said
that if Governor Millcr's retrcnchmcnt
program goes through there will be no
need Of a New York Office.
The announcement by Mr.. Wendell
spread dismay among the large staff
in the Manhattan Office, and many of
the employees are already planning to
move to Albany. The quarters in the
Woolworth Building occupy the larger
part Of two floors, with large rental
charge.
Comptroller Wendell said that he
had not considered filling the Office of
first deputy, held by William Board
man. and that he would not take up
the matter until next week He will
confer with Governor Miller to-day re-
garding financial matters.
II have no comment to make on the
program announced by the Governor"
said Mr.. Wendell. "If that is his pro
gram l am with him. Judge Miller is
not man to change his mind casilv
know him very we'll, for when he was
Comptroller for two Years | was his
deputy.
This plan is not new to me. as I
knew 1t was coming as long ago as De-

Syracuse and discussed state affairs
with him.

him."
Yesterday was the first day since his
accession to Office that Mr. Wendell had
appeared in the New York office. There
had been much speculation among the
office force regarding his probable ac-
ton IN reorganiZing the Manhattan Of

favorably with other administrations,
and Mr.. Smith said that it did and
added: This administration has done
more for the Port of New York than
all the various commissions out to-
getner.'
Commissioner Hubert said that the
reason that shipping was being di-
verted from New York was that the
city gave up many of its piers to the
Federal government for the purpose of
transportation of soldiers and supplies
during the war.
In discussing wharfage rates Mr..
Smith said that the competition for
wharf space was so keen that users
were willing to pay almost any price

customed to charging all that the
traffic would bear.
