Aland Islands to be j
Neutral Territory


convention for the naturalization of
the Aland Islands, received here,
shows that the signat countries to
it are Denmbark, Es,nonia, Poland,
Finland, France, Germany, Great
Britain, Italy, Lithunia and Sweden.
Besides prohibiting the establish
ment in the islands Of any military
naval or air base, it also forbids,
with certain exceptions, the entrance
of war vessels of any power into the
waters Of the archipelago except for
peaceful passage through them. Fin
land, is, however, permitted to send,
as temporary measure, any forces
required for the maintenance of'order.
In time of war, the archipelago is
strictly neutralized but in the event of
warfare affecting~ths Baltic, Finland
is perfitted to lay mines in the waters
of the group, provided she Immediate
/ ly informs the Council of the League
of Nations.
For the purpose of giving effect to
the convention or meeting any VIOLA
tions of it., the contracting powers
agree to have resort to the Council of
the League of Nations which shall, in
case of need, summon a conference of
the extracting powers, whether mem
! bers of the League or not. b.
Failing unanimity, each and any of
the contracting powers are authorized
to take such measures as may be
recommended by the Council by two
thirds majority. the vote of any power
accused Of the violation Of the con-
veuntion not being reckoned.
In the event of the neutrality Of the
Islands being threatened by sudden
coupe demain, Finland is authorized to
take the necessary measures in the
neutral zone for repelling the aggres-
sor until such time as the contracting
powers are ready to intervene for tn :
purpose of securing respect for the
| neutrality f the Islands.
The disposition of the Aland Is
lands, described as "the Gibraltar of
the North" has been the subject of
contention since the world war. For
centuries they belonged to Sweden
through it's control of Finland, but
! they fell into the hands of Russia
when Russia absorbed Finland. Swe-
den then became fearful of Russia's
militarism, as control of the Aland Is.
lands by Russia rendered Stockholm
liable to bombardment.
After the world war Sweden ap
pealed to the Peace difference at Yer.
sailles to have possession of the islands
decided on the principal of self-deter
mination and consented to their neu
tralization.
The question was referred to thu
League of Nations which appointed ;
judicial commission to investigate tn,
subject. The commission recommend
ed that the islands be placed unde1
the control of Finland but their neu
trality should be guaranteed by tn,
powers.

AMERICAN CHAMBER
 OPPOSED TO TARIFF
United States Business Organization in England Announces Stand on
 Fordney Bill.

London, Oct. 12, (By Associated Press) s).-Opposition to the clauses of the Fordney tariff bill providing for American valuation of imports was announced by the American Chamber of Commerce here today after. care full consideration of the measure.
 The chamber claims the clauses must handicap and prevent the free exchange of goods. It contends it would be difficult for American inn porters to ascertain the complete cost of their foreign purchases until re- ceived in the United States and also that it would be difficult for foreign shippers to make quotations. Sugges- tions that a fiat increase in the duty would be preferable to the valuation clauses are put forward by the cham Der, which says it feels the United States should foster and encourage the, flow of goods between itself and other countries as "an unimpaired flow of goods is the only means of creat- ing funds for the purchase of those American commodities of which oth- CT nations stand in need"

EX-SERGEANT RETURNS
Joseph Carroll Home For Few Days
 From Government Hospital at East
 Norfolk. Mass. --.

Joseph Carroll, formerly sergeant of Co. B, 1O2nd Infantry, U. s., is home for a few days from the government hospital at East Norfolk, Mass. He was sent there a month ago by the govern ment authorities.
 The hospital at EtNst Norfolk has for its patients a number of men who were shell-shocked during the war, and ner- vous cases caused by the strain under which the men worked while in France. The treatment of these cases, consists of absolute quiet and rest.
 East Norfolk is an ideal spot for such an institution and the grounds sur rounding the hospital are fitted out with everything possible to furnish relaxa- ton. The inmates are allowed passes every little while, so that they may visit their homes, and the government furn- ishes their transportation.
 This is one of the many institutions about the country which the govern ment has taken over for the purpose of treating the disabled veterans

IRISH TRUCE NOW
 CAUSING TROUBLE
Delegates Seeking Ways to Pre-
 vent Its Violation

London. Oct. 12. - (By Associated Press)-The British and Irish dele gates pending a resumption of the Irish conference tomorrow were today considering the question of alleged breaches Of the truce in Ireland and endeaNoring to devise means by which they might be avoided during the ne- gotiationa looking to a settlement of the futura of Ireland.
 This was the first difficulty faced by the conferee3 the assumption by the Dail NEireann of the functions of goy- ernment in Ireland having caused much irritation here. Actual out bursts or conflicts with the crown forces are regarded as less serious than the virtual busting of the British authorities by the Sim Fein courts and police, as the crown forces ean- not, without breaking the truce take active measures against this policy on the part of the Sim Fein. Under the terms of the truce the crown forces must not carry arms, which the British government alleges the Sim Feiners do. Ramon de Valera, who served as chief liaision officer in Ireland, is act ing for the Sim Fein in this matter and A. w. Cope, assistant under-sec- retary for Ireland, who originally signed the truce, has come to London from Dublin to advise the govern ment's representatives.
 The Sim Fein which has carried out religiously it's agreement regarding publication of the proceedings in the conferences, complained this morning that there had been leaks on the gov ernment side and said this was another matter which they shall demand reme- died.

Canton, Sept. 5, Correspondence of Associated Press) s).-Japan's 21 demands on China and the secret agreements" between Picking and Tokio if permitted to stand, will block any settlement of Far Eastern Qlfes- tions at the forthcoming Washington conference, according to Dr. Sun Yat- Sen,- leader of the >6outh China gov ern1nent.

 Seven stamp mills on high grade ores have been established. Develop ment of the camp will mean a heavy tonnage for the new government rail- road, mining men point out.

Robert BEown Sentenced for Stealing Dress Suit Cascs-Men's Bible Class Meets Tonight-Tax Problem Ex- plained-Berlin Items.

The reports of the seleetmen, the town treasurer, the school committee, the treasurer of the school commit tee and the health officer were all ac- cepted at the adjourned annual town meeting held at the Town Hall last evening. The meeting was not large ly attended and had it not been for a few remarks from ". D. Dunham would have been very quiet affair. Elmer Stearns acted as moderator.
 Previous to the acceptance of the selectmen's report Major F, l.. Will cox gave a report of the committee which was appointed last year to take care of the soldiers monument on Berlin street. This committee has engaged Alex Frank as caretaker of the place with a salary of S1O a month for the 8 summer months and $5 a month, for the four winter months. The budget for the year pre- pared by the finance board was read by Seleetman Carter and accepted Francis Deming and Lewis Wesslick were elected as members of the fi- nance board.
 Claude W. Stevens introduced a resolution which would provide for the compensation of the tax collector. His resolution was later withdrawn and the following one presented by B. R. Showalter was accepted:
 Resolved-That a tax of - mills on dollar as the rate may be de- termined by the finance board be made and the same is hereby laid upon the ratable state of all persons liable by law to pay taxes in the Town of Berlin as the same shall be set in the list of 1922 to pay the debts and to defray the expenses of the town and the support of the schools for the ensuing year; said tax shall be due and payable on the first day of May 1922, and the compen- sation of the tax collector shall be one and one-fourth per cent on the amount collected.
 Street Proposition Tabled.
 The matter of the acceptance of two streets by the town was the next proposition to come before the meet ing. This met with much opposition inasmuch as no definite description was given in the call of the meeting regarding the conditions of both streets. It was decided to table the matter indefinitely.
 W. ID. Dunham Speaks.
 The item which most people were waiting for was that regarding ths sale of the town farm, the 1owr teams and the purchasing of motor equipment. The call of the meeting stated, however, that the propositior was to be investigated and did no state that definite action was to bt taken at the meeting. w. D. Dun ham held the floor for a short time in opposition to any such move. H. said:
