Paris, June l7.-Raymond Poincare,
former president Of France, writing
in the Revue des Deux Mondes con-
cerning an alliance between Great
Britain and France which has been
discussed in political circles for the
past few weeks. says.
Such an alliance. which might
have the gravest consequences at
some future date and upon which
some day war or peace might hang,
can only be definitely decided upon
after mature reflection Just as Eng.
land would not help us in the remote
contingency Of our ever being az
gressors against Germany, so We could
not promise her eventual aid except in
what might be called strict defen.
sive. Above all. We must guard our
selves against any agreement which
might lead US indirectly into untlm-
ely disputes with the United States
we are friends of Japan. but Eng
land is the ally OF the Mikado's gov.
ernment. Tomorrow. a thousand queg-
tons may arise In the PacSlc between
the United States and Japan, which
would intensity racial strife.
How far would England be drawn
In by her alliance Nobody can say.

DUPLANTIER SARCASTICALLY IN
TINTATES ARCH DEMON MAY
CONTINUE 10 ESCAPE
HUMANITY'S LASH

Paris, June 17.-Senator Duplantier
in the senate late yesterday VITA Pre-.
mier BRAND attending the session, re-
newed his demand Of Tuesday to know
what measures the French govern
ment intends to take concerning the
execution Of the treaty Of Versailles
relative to bringing William Hohenzol.
lern, ex.kaiser Of Germany. TO trial for
his crime against humanity. The SEN
ator asked for immediate reply to his
Interpolation.
Premier BRAND argued that it might
be advisable to wait to see what ac-
ton is taken by the Leipzig court
which is trying war criminals. and
what verdicts it reactS in cases sub
mitted TO it for trial ~ France. Up
to the present the premier added, the
cases decided by the court have been
exclusively on British and Belgian de-
mands
"As far as the kaiser is concerned"
Mr. BRAND said, the senate doubtless
will rule that two years after the arm
istice We cannot join his case with the
others now being tried at Leipzig
without some slight Inconvenience"
There was a touch of sarcasm in the
voice Of the premier as he spoke.
Later the senate voted to postpone
discussion of NJ Duplanier's Interpret.
lation and ordered that it be entered
in its regular turn on the order of the
Cay. This is equivalent to an indefi-
mite postponement Of debate on the
Interpolation.

SENATORS TRYING
TO UNTANGLE THE
PACKER MIJDDLING
VALIANT EFFORTS MADE TO Sc
CURE RECONSIDERATION OF
THEIR OWN BILL WHICH
WAS LOST YESTERDAY

Washington, June 1.-THE confus-
ion into which the senate packer reg
ulation forces were thrown late yes
terday, by the defeat of their own
bill and the subsequent Introduction Of
4 new measure by Senator Stirling
South Carolina, before q vote could
be taken on the house measure, had
been smoo,hed out when the senate
convened today TO resume considera-
ton of the subject.
At conference last night Of those
senators fayoring what is regarded
as the more drastic resolution pro-
posed, in the bill reported by the SEN
ate agriculture committee, it was de-
cided the first move would be an at
tempt to secure reconsideration Of the
vote by which the measure was de-
feated, by the margin of 81 to "a.
Failing in this. it was decided to
SUPPORT the new Sterling bill which
prescribes much the same regulation
as the legislation proposed by the ag-
riculture committee, except that il
would place the administration in the
federal trade commission instead of
in livestock commissioner, as pro-
posed in the latter.
Leaders Of the regulation forces
claimed that several senators favor.
ing the committee bill who were unable
to attend the session yesterday would
be on hand today and their vote would
swing the scale in their favor.
Should the committee bill and the
Sterling bill both fail Of adoption today
it was expected that a vote would be
reached on the house measure, which
Is regarded as less drastic than the
senate bill

JUMPS FROM TEN THOUSAND
BARRELS IN 1901, TO TWO HUN
DRED SIXTY MILLION FOR
PRESENT YEAR.

Mexico City, June 17.-Reports of
the depletion Of Mexican oil fields
were described as absurd and un.
founded" last night by the treasury
and commerce and industry depart.
ments Of the Mexican government.
They made public figures showing
that since 1901, production of oil in
Mexico has constantly increased, and
stated that it was estimated the total
output for the present year would be
more than 26O million barrels.
The total amount of crude petro-
leum on hand in Mexico at the end
Of 1920, was estimated at S,s28, ,O39
barrels. The production for the first
months of the present year, was Civ
en- as follows
January 16,246,O2O; February 15,-
O63,S64; March 1884, ,ss7; April 49,
6l4,7sO: May, approximately l9 mil
lion.
Expectations covering the game per-
iod were given in round numbers.
They were:
January II million; February, March
and April Is million each and May
four million. The total expectations
for the five mcnths were 77O9s, 900
barrels.
Reviewing the history OF oil devel-
opment since 1901, when only lO,S45
barrels were produced, the official
figures indicated the industry had
jumped to more than three million
barrels In 1910, to over % million in
1913, and in excess of So million in
1917.
In 1918 the total production was
69,S2S,00 barrels.
In 1919 it was S7,072,OOO and last
years output was estimated at more
than 1913 million barrels.
Rafael Alcerreca, chief Of the pc
troleum department said in comment
ing on the situation
Persons studying petroleum af-
fairs, must not confuse expectation
with production, since the increase or
decrease OF expectation is dependent
on the circumstances Of the moment"

Among the first ballots that came

OF the 'business and while vet very
young man he established a bank and

DESPITE PROTESTS OF UNITED

Smyrna, June 17.-American cit
zens are being impressed into the
Greek army by agents of the Athens
government, and George Horton, Unit
ed States consul-general here, has
made vigorous protest to Governor
General Steriades.
For many months past, Americans,
even men who served in the army in
France, have been taken forcibly from
their homes, or from vessels arriving
from the United States and compelled
to Join the Greek forces.
There have been scores Of such cas-
es in Athens, Smyrna, Patras and
Saloniki. and only those able to es-
cape and get into communication with
American counslar officials have OBJ
tanned redress. In many instances
they have been stripped of their
clothing and their passports confis-
Gated When they have protested,
it is charged that they have been
handcuffed, thrown into jails and
mistreated.
Consul General Horton has made it
a practice, when Americans have been
released from the Greek army. per-
sonally to put them on board boats
and send them to America.
Governor General Steriades has re-
peatedly promised to remedy the sit
uation and has repudiated the action
of minor Greek officials in OBTAINING
American citizens. but despite his eff
forts, arrests OF Americans continue.
Mr.. Horton has appealed TO Wash.
ington TO make a peremptory demand
upon the Greek governor to discon-
tinue the breach Of the agreement
existing between the two countries.
