PAPERS IN BERGDOLL
CASE ARE GIVEN TO
= STATE Department
tBy Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, March 24.-All pa
pers in the war department relating to
the case of Grover Cleveland Bergdoll,
escaped American draft evader, now
in Germany, were transmitted to the
state department today at the -direc-
tion of Secretary Weeks, with the re-
quest that they be considered from an
international viewpoint.
The secretary said he had made a
careful study of the papers and found
nothing to indicate that any formal
request for return of Bergdoll had
been made of the German government.
The war status between the United
States and Germany had a natural ef-
feet on diplomatic relations, Mr..
Weeks said, but he added that Berg
doll had violated a British passport
obtained in Canada and that as Great
Britain was at peace with Germany it
would be possible for her to ask for de-
livery of persons who had violated
passport laws.
There was no intimation, however,
that the United States would suggest
that Great Britain cooperate in an eff
fort to get Bergdoll back to this coun-
try.
Mr.. Weeks said there was nothing
in the file to indicate that Brigadier
General Allen, commanding the Amer
lean occupational forces in Germany,
had been directed to act either in the
case of Bergdoll or that of the two sol
diers detained in Germany for attempt
ing to kidnap the draft evader.

GREEKS START DRIVE
AGAINST THE TuRkSIN
ASIA MINOR, REPORT

ATHENS, March 24-Greek troops
numbering 100000 are participating
in the Greek offensive against the
Nationalist forces in Asia
Minor. it is reported here. The Turk
ish Nationalists are believed to have
about 10000 effectives in the field.
but have smaller supplies upon which
to draw.
The most careful preparations were
made by the Greeks in connection with
the offensive, which began yesterday.
and it is anticipated here that the
Greeks will win important positions
with their first drive. Apprehension
is felt here that the advance Of Greek
forces east of the Smyrna hinterland
will throw the Turks into the arms
of the Russian soviet government of
Moscow.
The objective Of the offensive Is the
Bagdad railway, although Greek COM
manders have planned to reach the
city of Eski-Shehr. 1t is affirmed that
British, French and Italian armies in
the near east will not participate In
the campaign. General Selah Eddin
Bey, commander of Turkish forces in
Cilicia, has been transferred to the
Smyrna front for the purpose Of unit
ing the Turkish defense. For the
past two weeks the Greeks have been
landing at Smyrna motor trucks, ar
tillery and munitions, which had been
stored at Saloniki.

ing announcement that Great Britain
has entered into a trade agreement
with the Soviet government of Rus
sia, Secretary of Commerce Hoover
has issued a statement to the effect
that the possibilities of trade between
the United States and Russia are
slight SO long as the present eco
nomic system is maintained in Russia.
According to figures which have
been compiled by one of the foremost
authorities on Russian affairs, Am
erica's trade with Russia has always
been insignificant in comparison with
the trade of Great Britain and Ger
many with that country.
In 1905, several years before the
advent of Bolshevism in Russia, and
at time when American commercial
activities were particularly flourish
ing state, our imports from Russia
pared with imports of $119, ,963, 900 by
Germany and $49,16S.000 by Great
Britain: our exports to Russia totaled
only $1,S30.000 against exports of
S131, 1894 900 by Germany and $685.

year the exports of France, Austria
Hungary and Turkey to Russia also
exceeded those of the United States.

PAYMENTS OF TAXES
ARE IN ON Time AT
TREASURER'S OFFICE
Cardinal Gibbons

Payment of taxes in Wayne county
is moving along with regularity at the
county treasurer's office. Three
weeks of the two months allowed for
the payment of assessments have
passed and tine amount collected thus
far is slightly above that taken in at
this time last year. This is attributed
to the raise in taxes which has been
general over the county.
County Treasurer Ahl states that
unless larger numbers begin paying
their taxes now there will be the usual
last day rush at the county office. The
first Monday in May is the last day for
payment after which 10 per cent will
be added for lelinquents.
On March %, 1920, $106,92S.42 had
been collected; today the treasurers
books showed $118,967.33 was turned
into the county Golfers.
The following information concern
ing the tax laws was pointed out as es-
sential by Treasurer Ahl Thursday:
Due BY May 2
All taxes are due not later than
May 2. and those on which no pay
ment has been made by that date be-
come delinquent, which means 10 per
cent will be added as a penalty. AS
further penalty if such taxes re-
main delinquent at the succeeding first
Monday in November, six per cent
shall be added to all such taxes that
become delinquent at the preceding
May and November settlements.
Property that has changed hands
since the first of March is still on the
treasurer's book and taxed to the or
iginal owner. This is because all
property. real and personal, was listed
on the treasurer's books before March
1, in any year, shall be considered as
the owner on that day, and shall be
assessed and liable for the taxes OF
that year.
All difficulty can be avoided by per-
sons informing the treasurer Of such
changes before paying taxes.
Five weeks remain for the settle
ment of taxes, and county officials
urge early payments to avoid last
minute ruSheS.
