indicated Thursday that the treaty ap-
proved by the senate contains about all
commercial provisions it had occurred
to American authorities as desirable to
provide for, reservation of American
rights under the treaty of Versailles
being viewed as accomplishing this re-
suit.
There are certain reciprocal agree
ments as to German interests in the
United States. however. which the Ger
man government is anxious to have
written into a commercial pact, and it
is expected this will be taken up
through regular diplomatic channels

peace treaty ratifications have been
exchanged and diplomatic machinery

Of FORCED PERMITS
Two Former Officials of Pro-
hibition Department Will Be
Arrested for Conspiracy.

Philadelphia, Oct. 2O-An alleged
conspiracy by which liquor valued at
nearly $15,OOO,OOO was withdrawn
from distilleries in many states
through the issuance of fraudulent
permits was revealed Thursday night
by high prohibition officers, who an
nounced that warrants had been is
sued for the arrest of two former of
ficials in the office of w. C. Nc
Connell, director of federal prohibition
enforcement in PENNSYLVANIA. The
warrants were issued at the request
of United States District Attorney
George w. Coles for A. F. Slater,
former secretary to Mr.. Mcconnell,
and Hiram w. Benner, formerly agent
in charge of permits for liquor with
drawals. Both are charged with con-
sDiring with others to defraud the
United States by means of fraudulent
perSlits.
According to prohibition officers
here, the permits were issued pro-
miscuously when it became known in
Washington radical changes were to
be made in the enforcement personnel
of Pennsylvania. Stores were said to
have been withdrawn from distilleries
in New York. New Jersey, Maryland,
Kentucky, Illinois. Indiana and Penn
sylvania, some of which were cap
tured by New York and Philadelphia
enforcement agents before they could
be delivered. Others known to be en-
route are expected to be seized mo-
mentarily.

BRUMFIELD SLASHES THROAT IN ATTEMPT
TO END LIFE; WAITING DEATH SENTENCE
ULSTER, STUMBLING BLOCK
OF IRISH PEACE TO ENTER
INTO LONDON DISCUSSION

London, Oct. 2O.-(By The As.
s0ciated Press.)-The most diff
cult problem facing the Irish con.
terence-that Of Uister-wiII, 1t
Is understood, come up before the
full conference which is dealing
with the subject of Irish peace at
a session to be held Friday.
The Sim Fein delegates have
finished their work on sub mmit-
tees while the British representa-
tives have been busy with their
experts concluding their case for
presentation to the conference.
The Sim Fein has maintained its
determination not to agree to enter
the British commonwealth unless
ireland is treated as a unit. An
effort, therefore, is to be made
from the governments side to in
duce Ulster to consider some means
by which, while preserving its To-
cal autonomy, it may form a part
of the Irish state.
The Obstetrics have resisted all
appeals thus far, and the present
restlessness in Belfast Is attrib-
uted in high quarters in London
to apprehension that the rank and
file of the British representatives
at the conference contemplate sac
riflcing them to the desire for an
Irish settlement. They refer to
the recent speech at Armagh Of
Michael Collins, Sim Fein finance
minister. who prophesied that tho
British politicians would abandon
Ulster when it suited them.
Great Falls tribune. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1921-current, 1921-10-21
All information obtainabIe in
authoritative quarters, however,
n0infs tn strict adharanco nv p.a

All information obtainable in
authoritative quarters, however,
points to strict adherence by Pre-
mier Lloyd George and his COL
leagues to their Ulster pledge. The
opinion is expressed by many per-
sons that 1t will be possible to
construct some plan which, while
apparently leaving Ulster un-
touched, will give such advantages
to the south as to compel Ulster
to make terms with the south.
There are other persons to whom
the difficulties seem insuperable,
and many Of them prophesy
speedy break in the negotiations
of this issue.
Discrediting the widespread be-
lief that Sir James Craig, the
Ulster premier, will take part in
the conference, members Of the
Sim Fein delegation said today
there was no intention on their
part, at least, for the present, of
consenting to admit Sir James.
They added that they were perfect
Iy willing to discuss with him every
aspect Of the Ulster question but
declared that they would not rec
ognize him as the official repre-.
sentative of Ireland, or any part of
ireland.
The Sim Feiners reiterate that
II will be impossible for Premier
Lloyd George to 90 to Washington
until a "show down" has been
reached by the conferences.

There are now some 10000 men in
Major General Aliens command and
while every suggestion that American
troops might be recalled has met with
opposition up to this time from the
French and British. and from Germany
ITSELF it may be found possible later
to reduce the force.
It has been generally recognized that
the size Of the American force had
little to do with considerations that
prompted the desire that it remain on
the Rhine, the thing sought being to
keep the American flag flying there
for such effect as it might have in
tranquilizing the situation and also
because General Allen has acted fire.

question which was regarded as the
logical subject before the confer
ence in Chicago between the
brotherhood chiefs and the labor
board.
Secretary Hoover. in announcing
that the department of commerce
was prepared to serve as the focal
point for efforts of state and
municipal government to assure the
movement of food. fuel and other
primary commodities in event of
the strike. indicated that motor
trucks and water transportation
would be used to supplement any
portion of the railroads left in
operation. Traffic experts have
computed that through the proper
use of motor equipment. the av-
erage American city can draw sub
sistence from contiguous territory
within n radius of 30 miles.
Under this plan, it was said, a
community would not feel the ef-
fects of a national strike before
several weeks had passed, instead
of in few days as would have
been the case 10 years ago.
Reports to the department indi
cate that large Industries generally
have been busy for some time as

out, to be centered in behalf of

unable to take similar precaution
and would limit the danger Of in-'
