represent nearly all'of Russia's industry
and commerce, has drawn Up a resolu-
ton approving the note which Secretary
OF State Hughes sent to Sovie. Russia
In reply to the request that the United
states open trade relations with Russia
The resolution also condemns the
Anglo-Russian trade agreement, which
Il describes as a temporary agreement
carrying only secondary advantages in
commercial dealings. ito the detriment

like n ray OF light. The American peo-

The resolution remarks that the

cables to the Entente Allies.
This sort OF nonsense" M. Millet con-
tinues. will end finally In exposing
American diplomacy to regrettabie dis
credit.
I'm the first place. neither France nor
England has any reason to turn their
back on the league. which IN neither
the Sarre Valley or elsewhere appears to
have lacked merit. Moreover, In elm
mating the covenant from the treaty 1t
would necessitate Germany's signature
to a new pact and also make necessary

lies do not desire. Rather than lend
herself to treaty revision France beyond
any doubt would prefer to renounce
American ratification OF the Versailles

Alien Property Custodian, Ire

and Philadelphia Public Ledger.
NORFOLK, Va, Sept. 5.-Congres-
s:onal critics Of the action of Thomas
W Miller, alien property custodian, in
seizing the property Of Grover Z. Berg
doll, Philadelphia draft dodger, were
answered Saturday night in an address
Mr.. Miller made here beofre the Ameri~
can Legion.
1--WE would have been derelict in our
duty had we not carrie dout the law"
said Mr. Miller, and he characterized the
Bergdon case as q stain upon the pre-
vious Administration Of the War De-
partment.
Il observe that some Of our statesmen
in Washington during the debate on the
peace resolution" said Mr.. Miller, "ques%
toned the action Of the alien property
custodian in ths Bergdou seizure. Let
them not forget that an enemy undeS
the law is one who resided in Germany
or Austria Hungary during the war and
who was NOT protected By war trade
board license. Such is BergGon's status.
The fact that he has broken two laws
in this country at two separate times,
under two different conditions, ioes noe
make him immune from either Of them.
When law is right and will not suffice,
then might is right. This is our an
swer to our critics. and 1 welcome the
opportunity to deliver it before such an
assemblage."
Discussing the problem which ths
Harding Administration faces in caring
for the disabled soldiers. Mr. Miller said
Public opinion controls Congress, and
If public opinion will become aroused il
will not be necessary for the disabled
saviors OF our land to fight the Governs
ment and its bureaus for what they so
richly and justly deserve by sentiment
as well as by law."-Copyright 1921, by
