The Far Eastern Republic

From far-away vladivostock comes the Daily News of

of facts that reflect the unrest of life in that
dsorganized country. The principal tems beside the
of the plague raging are about the new gov

Chita We assured that except for ridiculous at
tempt at coup" and crops of wild runors of political
uprisings th part of the country is now IN entire
peace"
The Chta Constituent Assembly the ruling power
has abolished forever all ownership of land, forest or
water their wealth" and a land, however utilized
owned becomes the property of the working population
without any purchase whatever and is considered sate
fund.- Distribution is arranged according to rules liked
by the local Agricultural Department The basc rlghC
of utilization is personal labor and cannot be limited by
either SEX religion nationality" Utllzatlon can oe
either collectively or individually.
The Observation-Disclosures Establishments and
Cadets have refused participation in the government on ac
count of its communstc character The Constituent
semby having "endeavored with all its might to to
peaceful understanding with Japan the boupdaes OF
the Free Eastern Republic declared its failure, and having
reapponted ITSELF but under the title of National Assembly
thinks fit to prove to Japan that it cannot be trfed
WITH by barring foreigners from the forthcoming OF TIM
ber concessions.
The Russian Soviet government has sent the Chta gov
ernment twelve million roubes in gold, two million of which
assigned to the maritime provinces, but due to the
tract of parched land stretching out between Chta and
Vadvosock having absorbed this Godend the gold failed
to materalze Meanwhile the supply agents of the re-
public have been arrested and sentenced for countefetng
The RussoAsatc bank has opened branch at Kobe and
resumed activities at Vladivostock and it's clients
that their interests will suffer the event of trouble
with the Russian government the National Assembly
realizes that it cannot place restrictions upon capital
and banking it formerly did,. Concessions have been
granted to Americans and Russians for development of
mining, timber tracts, and other resources.
How much superior in America! Here instead
of making personal labor the basic right to utilization of
land, permit those who labor to withhold land
from utilization for speculation and unearned increment
created by labor of Others Here, instead of confscatng
idle wealth exempt it from taxation by sanctonng is

FOREIGN TRADE
HAS DECREASED

Washington, Aug. 18.-A decrease
of more than $3,000,000,000 in the
value of this country's foreign trade
during the last fiscal year was as
cribed by the commerce department
to the worldwide trade depression,
coming as an aftermath of the war.
Lower prices rather than dimin-
ished foreign trade were, to a great
extent, responsible for the de-
crease in exports, the department
asserted in a statement reviewing g
the years foreign trade.
Exports of both cotton and wheat
increased in volume but declined
in value during July as compared
with last year, commerce depart
ment figures today disclosed. Cot
ton exports amounted to 527 200
bales, valued at $32,000,000, COM
pared with 211 900 bales worth

WANTS HOLLAND

FORMER KAISER
Member British Par
Lament Voices
Demand.

London, Aug. 1S.-The declara-
ton that Holland should be called
upon to surrender the former Ger
man emperor, was made in the
house of commons today by Bora
ito Bottomley, Independent, who
again raised the question of the re-
cent trials of Germans in Leipsic,
accused of acts in violation of the
rules of civilized warfare in the
World war. MIR. Bottomley said
that if the demand for the ex-kais-
er's surrender should be refused by
Holland and the British govern
ment found itself unable to deal
with the matter effectively, the gov
ernment should make way for men
of firmer and sterner stuff"
The solicito r-general, Sir Ernest
Pollock, who represented the gov
ernment at the trial in Leipsic, de-
clared the punishments imposed by
the German court on convicted
German officers must be judged by
German standards. He said it
should be remembered that the
Leipsic trials were the first in the
history of the world in which a
vanquished country had been fore
ed to try its own nationals charged
with war guilt.

INSEL Il BLAMED FOR BERCDOLL ESCAPE
CLAIM TAX BILL
RELIEVES BIG
CORPORATIONS
Leader Urges Demo
Gratis to Oppose
LalU.

Scotland Neck. n. c.. Aug. 1S.-
Urging house Democrats to line up
solidly in caucus against the Re-
publican tax revision bill, Repre-
sentative Claude Kitchin, Demo-
cratic leader, in a telegram today
to Representative Garrett of Ten
nessee, acting minority leader, de-
clared the proposed repeal of the
excess profits tax and the substitu-
tion of the Is per cent corporation
tax means that the big "profiteering
corporations" will be relieved of at
least half billion dollars in taxes,
which will be paid by corporations
of smaller incomes. Support of the
bill by the house representative IS,
Mr.. Kitchin added, would prove
fatal mistake for every individual
Democrat voting for it."
The corporations in the United
States made net profits from Jan.
1st, 1916, to Jan. /, 1921, of approx
$4,000. 900 900. Represent
ative Kitchin declared After de-
all taxes paid since Jan. l,
1916, they have a clear profit left,
of $38, 900, 900, more than fouf-
f1fths of which was made by less
than ten thousand corporations,
and more than half of which was
made by ten hundred and twenty
six of the big profiteering corpora
tions, which includes the steel
trust, the Bethlehem company, the
DUPONT company, the various
Standard Oil companies, the coal
combine, the wool trust, the meat
packers, etc.
I'm the face of these ugly facts.
is it possible that any one of our
fellow members can get the con-
sent of his mind, as a matter of
right and justice, as well as good
politics, to join with the Repub-
licans in relieving these big profit
eering corporations of hundreds of
millions of dollars yearly, and put
ting these millions upon the small
and weak. and non-profiteering cor
porations. making from to 10 per
cent and less upon invested capital,
which a fifteen per cent fiat rate
will do, especially in the face OF
further fact that the Republicans
passed a tariff bill which gives
these same profiteering corpora
tons the power to exact yearly
from the people from three to five
billion dollars profits above the
world market price"

CAN SENATORS
ACT LAWFULLY
\ FOR HARDING?
Coming Farley Raises
Ticklisk Situa-
tion.
BY DAVID LAWRENCE.
Especial to The Argus

Washington, Aug. 1S.-Is Henry
Cabot Lodge or any other member
of the senate eligible to represent
the executive branch of the govern
ment in the forthcoming negotia-
tions with other governments for
disarmament and the settlement of
far eastern questions.
Constitutional lawyers point ont
that there is clause in the federal
constitution which makes any mem
Der OF the senate or house ineligible
to hold Office under the orders of
the president without RESIGNATION
OF their seats in the legislative
body.
Here Is what the federal consti-
tuition says under Article One:
'NoA senator or representative
shall, during the time for which he
was elected. be appointed to any
civil office under the authority of
the United States which shall have
been created or the emoluments
whereof shall have been increased
during such time; and no person
holding any Office under the Unit
ed States shall be a member of eth
er house during his continuation in
Office"
The purpose of the foregoing ar
ucle as explained by the constitu-
tlonal lawyers was to effect a COM
plete separation between the exec
utive and legislative branches of
Mckinley appointed Senators Freye
of Maine and Cushman Davis of
Minnesota, both republicans, to be
members of the American peace
commission which negotiated a
treaty at Paris whereby the Span
war was concluded
the point was not raised until after
the treaty had been signed Then
a debate arose in the senate as to
whether members of the senate
who had temporarily served with
the executive branch of the govern
ment had a right to vote as MEM
bers of the senate to ratify that
same treaty.
Wilson's Action.
So much weight was attached to
the controversy that when President
Wilson was urged to appoint some
members of the United States SEN
ate to serve on the American peace
at the conclusion of the
European war, he called for an
opinion from the lawyers of the
state department and they brought
out the fact that the constitution
would seem to make such d choice
President Wilson
therefore did not appoint anybody
from the senate.
The question will probably arise
in an entirely unprecedented way
