Way Is Opened for Resumption
of Diplomatic Relations
With Former Foes.
fey The Associated Press.1


WASHINGTON, July 2.--Signing of the
resolution declaring state of peace with
Germany and Austria, it was held here
ended today the technical state of war
with those powers.
The next step. it was pointed out,
would be the issuing of the formal peace
proclamation which could be expected
within a few days. This, it was said
would be a mere formality and in it's eff
feet would date from today. The proc
lamation, it was explained, would be by
President Harding and signed in addi-
ton by Secretary Hughes.
A treaty of peace will then be nego-
tiated, 1t was said, but the administra
ton is understood not to have developed
as yet the steps by which it viii under
take such negotiations. The signing of
the resolution, it was added, opens the
way for resumption of diplomatic rela-
tions between the United States and the
former enemy powers. although it has
been indicated that the manner In which
this win be approached has not been de-
termined.
The issuing Of the peace proclamation
as of today, it was also pointed out,
would operate to terminate war time laws
which have not previously been repealed
by congressional action. Among the
more important are the trading with the
enemy act and the liberty bond acts.

AIRPLANES FOR
The OIL FIELDS
Will Be Used in the Rush for
Claims That Lie in the
Arctic Circle.
Ry Newspaper Enterprise Association

BY Newspaper Enterprise Association
EDMONTON, Alberta, July 2.-Some
Of the folks who are planning to join
the stampede into the newly discov-
cred oil country that lies on the Arc
tic Circle in northern Canada have a
hazy idea of the hardships such a
journey entails.
The man from New York state, for
example, who wired railroad officials
here to reserve sleeping car accommo-
be disappointed.
For the only method by which he
can cover the 1So0-mile stretch to the
oil district centering about Norman
will be an arduous journey of weeks
by river boat, a longer and more dan
gerous trek by wagon, or by airplane.
Airplanes, for the first time in his
tory, will be used in the rush for
claims. The Imperial Oil Company
has two planes already on the job,
and will begin the job of convey
ing men and surveying instruments
across the hundreds of miles of Wild
erness. These will be for company
employees only, but several other COM
panies are being formed for carrying
passengers. The fare will be $1,000
for the round trip. Steamer fare is
$500.
Navigation Of ice-locked rivers and
lakes did not open until late in
May, and the first steamer loads Of
passengers and freight are now being
signed up. Transportation companies
say they can move 1000 men this sea-
son.

SKIPPER DEMONSTRATES
HIS SUPERIORITY OVER CHALLENGER
Capt William Walthers Defeats Edward H of New
Orleans in Special 12Ne Race in the Fish Class Boats

Capt. William Walters, crack skipper
of the Pensacola Yacht club, demon
strated his superiority over Capt. Ed
ward H. Keep of New Orleans in a
special 70 mile race in fish class sloops
off sPalafox wharf yesterday afternoon
winning from the Southern Yacht club
star by 40 seconds. The visiting skip
per proved a better light-air sailor
than Capt. Wa1thers, both luck and
the fiukes being with him when Willie
ran into a soft spot while Capt Keep
held to the edge of the breeze and
overcame a two minute and 10 second
lead.
The wind was out of the southwest
and fairly fresh when the race started
at $40 o'clock. Capt. Walthers held
a little the advantage of position when
the starting line was crossed and held
his slight lead throughout the first
round of the triangle course. At the
Fair Point buoy, the course being east
erly Walthers was II seconds ahead
of his opponent. The leg was on the
wind all the way.
Coming down to the Town Point
buoy, Capt. Keep was unable to point
up or foot with Capt. Walthers and
split tacl1s, standing out toward the
center of the bay while Walthers laid
up close to the Santa Rosa peninsula.
The result was that Willie made the
second buoy on a single reach while
Capt. Keep was forced to tack twice.
This gave Walthers a lead Of two
minutes and 10 seconds.
From buoy No. to the home beacon
It was a free run. The boats held
their respective position until Walthers
was caught in soft spot while Capt.

ISSUING PEACE PROCLAMATION
WILL BE NEXT STEP IN ORDER
President Harding Signs Reso-
luton Brought to Him BY
Special Messenger.
(By The Associated Press.)


RARITAN, N. j., July 1.-THE resolu-
ton of congress declaring war with Ger
many and Austria Hungary at an end
was signed here late today by President
Harding.
So that there might be no unnecessary
delay in contamination of the long de-
ferred state of peace, the resolution was
brought here by special messenger from
washington where it had been given final
congressional approval yesterday. The
messenger left for the capital again to-
night to complete the formalities of the
declaration by depositing the document
in the archives of the state department.
There was little of the dramatic in
the actual ceremony of giving presiden-
tial approval to the measure. Returning
here from luncheon and golf game at
the Somerville Hill Country club the
president found the White House mes
senger, E. w. Smithers, waiting for him
on the yeranda of the Frelinghuysen
house.
Mr. Harding Immediately put on his
nose glasses and, sitting in a porch
swing, examined the official copy of the
resolution minutely. The signing took
place at a small mahogany table in the
adjacent living room in the center of a
distinguished group, which included the
president, host and hostess, Speaker Gill
lett of the house of representatives, Sem
ator Kellogg of Minnesota. a member of
the senate foreign relations committee.
Senator Hale of Maine and other mem
bers of the weekend party.
AS the presidents pen scratched out
the final letters of his name, one of the
group remarked:
well that's that, Mr.. President"
Eyes, that's it, replied Mr.. Harding,
with a broad smile. and the others re-
sponded with a quick burst of handicap
ping.

Keep, in the Popeye, sailed on the
edge of the breeze. Capt Keep cut
down Walthers' lead to narrow mar
gin but the Pensacola skipper took ad-
vantage of an off shore puff which
had already killed the breeze, to run
down toward the L. e N. docks. Here
he picked up an easterly zephyr which
sent him across the finish line of the
first round at 4:42:45 o'clock. Capt.
Keep slipped over the line at 4:43:52,
having cut walthers' lead to one min
ute and seven seconds.
The first leg of the second round
was a drifting match with Capt. Keep
having all the best of it. He held the

utes later the wind shifted and a light
breeze came out Of the south. Capt.
Keep getting it first. With Capt.
Walthers astern but to windward,
Capt. Keep turned the Fair Point buoy
on the second round at 5:12:55 O'Clock.
Walthers went around the buoy at
Stab O'Clock, a lead Of one minute
and IS seconds.
Both shippers now had good breezes
and both held in toward the peninsula
walthers came about first, when Keep
was close under the lee of the land.
Capt. Keep came about a second later.
He was 300 yards to the weather.
It was on this windward run to the

the race. He pointed and footed better
