THE GREAT LAW.

People of intelligence, open.
minded to truth, lose much II
they habitually absent themselv.
es from religious services in q
city whose pulpits are SO well
supplied as ours with men who
hace come to see truth clearly
through bordering deeply the
problems of life. Can there be
anything more important than
an understanding, as far as we
can grasp it, of the evolutinary
plan and the meaning and pur-
pose of life, of our existence as
human beings on this planet? II
is of this that the finest minds
i'm the church have made a life
long study and seek in their dis
courses to give out such truth
concerning it as they have found.
II is said that a statement has
been made in a city pulpit that
very many earnest people look
upon this world war as an afilic-
ton visited by God upon the ma
tons for their sins. Yet this is
error, the hearers were told.
God brings no evils on mankind.
This war is the wages, the legiti-
mate earnings, The inescapable
outcome, the inevitable effect of
causes put into operation by the
nations themselves.
That is the rational and salts
factory view and is supported by
and is consistent with all that we
Know of all the laws of nature,
which arc Of course the laws of
God. They are all of them self
enforcing, infraction of them be-
ing invariably following by UNI
desirable or disastrous conse-
qtences. II is error, however,
to regard these as penalties in
flicted. The great law is not
punitive, but is only the law of
action and reaction Of cause and
effect. -Marksville Enterprise.

TREATY WITH GERMANY.

President Harding having
signed. last Saturday, the con-
gressional resolution declaring
'at an end the state of war with
1.-The imperial German govern
ment" and the imperial and
royal Ausro-Hungarian govern
ment," unofficial dispatches
from Washington assert that
Secretary of State Hughes has
already drafted the general out
lines" of treaty with Germany.
Those outlines. it appears, have
been carefully guarded even
from the presidents former col
leagues in the Senate. some Of
whom are displaying more or
less uneasiness regarding the
terms thereof. Certain of these
majority senator's are quoted as
making guarded threats of a
vigorous fight should the pres
ident propose to''engage under
the existing treaty." or even
submit a revised copy of the
Versailles pact. All recognize
of course that negotiation of for
NAL treaties is necessary-that
the anomalous situation created
by the compromise peace resell
utiOn cannot be continued for
ever.
In his address TO the new Con-
gress on April II last, the presi-
dent presented his own view
rather clearly. Promising in
advance to approve a resolution
declaring a ''state of technical
peace" he added. 1T would be
impossible to secure four sepa-
rate treaties of peace with the
Central Powers onthe assump-
ton that these alone would be
adequate. '''The wiser course
would seem to be acceptance OF
the confirmation of our rights
and interest as already provided
and 10 engage under the existing
treaty, assuming of course that
this can be satisfactorily accom-
plished by such explicit reser-
vations and notifications as will
ensure our absolute freedom
from inadvisable commitments
and safeguard all our essential
interest"
From the text and tone of
their published comments, it APP
pears that some of the Repub-
lican Elders are minded now to
stand out for separate treaties,
with little or no SAVIOR of the
Versailles treaty; while they
bristlc at the mere suggestions
Of engaging ''undcr the existing
treaty." Yet the Congress SEEM
ed il wise to reserve, in its own
peace resolutions, all rights,
privileges, indemnities, repair
atoms or advantages" provided
under 1.-THE treaty of Versailles,
the treaty of st. German or the
treaty OF Trianon."
When Secretary Hughes
draft is completed and approved
by the president we shall learn
how far his views have nnder-
gone modification since last
Apil--or how far he mayl
deem II expedient to yield to
the Elder Statesmen of his own
party. Speculation meanwhile
regarding his purpose and plan
may prove q popular pastime
in Washington circles, but need
not be taken too seriously by
guessing contests. TIP.

Senator Watson charged that

WASHINGTON, June 3.-Adoption
of the Porter resolution, declaring a
state of peace between the United
States and Germany and Austria Hun
gary, was recommended to the House
to-day by the Committee on Foreign
Affairs. Action on the floor is planned
for next Thursday, when an attempt is
to be made to pass the measure with
debate limited probably to five or six
hours.
The committee action was taken on
vote of the Republican members, the
Democrats opposing the resolution to q
man. Both sides have until Tuesday
to file their reports
The opposition of the minority mem
bers was mild surprise, for they had
indicated that they would favor the
Porter resolution and vote with the
Republicans against the Knox measure.
They will state in their report that
the resolution undertakes, in effect, to
negotiate treaty with Germany and
Austria and is, therefore, a usurpation
of the executive powers. The conten-
ton will also be set up that the resolu-
tion will be confusing in that it "takes
advantage of rights provided under
the Treaty OF Versailles, which this
government has repudiated."
1t is expected that when the measure
is taken up by the House the Demo-
Gratis will attempt to insert clause
! involving the Versailles treaty. Rep
resentative Connally, Democrat, o.
Texas, a member of the committee.
made such an attempt during the com
mittee meeting to-day. He sought to
amend the title of the resolution so as
to connect the peace made by it with
the Versailles treaty, but the majority
stood solidly against him. 1t is sup
posed that this is the sort of tactics
the minority will pursue during consid-
Grafton of the measure by the House.
No change had been wrought in the
text of the resolution from the draft
made public several days ago by Chair
man Porter after agreement of the
majority members. The principal fea-
ture remains that, in contrast with the
Knox measure, it does not repeal the
declaration of war. Different language
provides more specific reservations Of
American rights, especially with regard
to continuing the administration OF
alien property in the United States.
Senator Knox is understood to have
taken the position that if the House
adopts the Porter resolution by a de-
cisive vote-as it undoubtedly will-he
will be willing to yield and will Offer
his support to the House measure when
it reaches the Senate. He is quoted as
saying: 81 shall be for whatever will
accomplish the desired end, whether my
resolution is the one accepted or not"

Stowaway Snake Awakes i'm Land
Of Prohibition and Turns Sullen

Svengali, the largest boa constructor
ever captured in Hoboken and the
largest snake seen thereabouts since
prohibition, evinced not the slightest
pride yesterday in his unique attain
ments. He huddied his 12-foot length
in coils in his new apartment in The
Bronx Geological Park, sunk his head
in the midst of them and stared with
CLASSY disapproval at his surroundings.
In Svengali's tropical home the lazy,
good natured boa folk don't go i'll for
throwing, but neither do they
live in glass houses. Now that Svengali
found himself in glass house for the
first time in his life he was in just
the mood to throw stones.
E Things had gone wrong with him
ever since the big rains which broke
up the family, spoiled the hunting, and
finally set Svengall adrift in watery
waste on an uprooted tree that dipped
disconcertingly in the wash of the
food just as boa settled himself for
q much-needed nap.
After days and nights of dreary,
damp and hungry drifting, Svengalrs

Michael Finnerty head of the Fifth
Avenue Coach Company Employment
Bureau, was shot and killed last night
by Patrick Fitzgerald, night foreman
OF the company's garage on 102d Street,
east of Fifth Avenue, who then killed
himself with another bullet. The
shooting took place in the garage about
s:45.
Each of the men had been employed
by the company for eighteen years.
Their friendship was close and never
had been interrupted by any ,misunder-
standing Tor so much as a day, so far
as their fellow employees knew.
Joking Together Before Shot
At $3.50 last night Finnerty and
Fitzgerald were talking and laughing
with one of the other employees, who
lett them in few minutes. Soon after
the two friends had been left to them
selves, Joseph Orann, a mechanic who
stood not far away, was startled by a
loud report.
Looking around he saw Finnerty
staggering back from his friend clutch
ing his breast and heard him exclaim:
Pat! What are you doing?"
Fitzgerald. snarling in liked grin
that exposed his teeth, took careful
aim with his revolver and fired again
crying: "I'll show you what I'm
DOING"
The second bullet struck Finnertv in
the right eye. The first had grazed
his heart and would have proved fatal.
At the second shot Orann took to
his heels, shouting: "Ill get cop."
Bullet Passes His Head
There was another report and a
bullet whizzed past his head as he ran
through the doorway. He was back
within two minutes with Sergeant
kelleher and Patrolman Bauer, whom
he had found at Madison Avenue in
police side-car motorcycle.
Another pistol shot sounded as thev
turned into the garage and they found
Fitzgerald dead beside the man he had
killed. He had shot himself in the
head.

|Lenine-T -Trotzky Break
Threatens Red Regime
Split Between Leaders Said To
Be Due TO Premier's Pol
lev Toward Capital
Ru Wireless to The Tribune


BERLIN, June 3.--The very life of
the Soviet regime is involved in crit
ical internal political situation that has
arisen in Russia. Premier Lenine, in his
sudden drift away from his Red doc
trines and back toward capitalism, has
forced split with his former partner
in Bolsheism, Leon Tfotzky, and other
extremists.
The Novi Mir, a Bolshcvik newspaper
subsidized by the Russian Soviet re-
gime, although published here in Ber-
lin. confirms the report that Rykof,
Lonof and Miliutin, chief supporters
of Lenine's policy of return to state
capitalism, were defeated in the cleo
tions to the All Russian Congress of
Economic Councils. Schliiapnlkoff and
Rudzutak, two of Trotzky's supporters
take the places of Rykoff and Lomoff.
Both the latter, howeer, were seated
on the Soviet Peoples Commissions,
thus indicating a sharp division be-
tween these commissions, which favored
throwing the Bolshevik program into
the discard, and the All-Russian Coun-
Gil of National Economy, which is CIV
controlled by Trotzky, Schliapnikoff and
Bucharin. The latter organization urges
the annulment of all foreign conces-
sions and the adherence to an extrem-
ist program.
Thus the two outstanding political
and economic organs of the Soviet gov
ernment are in sharp disagreement with
each other. In view of the most crit
zeal political and economic situation
that has developed in Russia, as has
been admitted by Lenipe and Rykoff, in
cabled dispatches to The Tribune. the
stability of the Red regime is regarded
in Russian circles here as seriously
menaeed.
