disa dvantage of Russia. 1t fears the
French will agitatr against Germany cn
the treaty issue. but hopes 1t win hasten
the conclusion of similar treaties be-
tween other nations and Russia.
German business. watching the barom-
eter of the falling mark. doubt the time
iness of the treaty. A leading Ger
man manufacturer told THE NEW YORK
HERALD correspondent that the publica-
ton of the treaty was characteristic of
German diplomatic tactlessness. For IL
lusory material gains. he said. Germany
sacrifices the good will already won at
the Genoa conference through her re-
serve and moderation. The gains
claimed by Germany, ne said. were not
important for last years Russo-Ger-
man trade agreement gave Germany
practically all the business facilities that
the new treaty provides. He added that
the treaty did not increase the Rus
slams buying power in Germany; and
that while the political agreement would
facilitate trade relations. 1t would not
develop. them.
German official ciOles hold that The
new treaty constitutes no new depar-
tune 1t is pointed out that the Brest-
Litovsk treaty jim 1918 gave the Sow ct
Government both de facto and de 'jure
recognition. Gckmany does not propose
to set q precedent relative TO the re-
nunciation of rsparation for property
which the Bols heviki confiscated. as
that clause in the treaty becomes opera

not violated. because il merely gave the
Russians the opportunity to settle their
claims direclS w tn Germany. and thase

OPEN FALL PREDICTED BY
INDIAN

Shelkirk, Man.-An open fall with
no cold weather until late in Dec
ember, was predicted today by Henry
Prince, a grandson of the great In.
>. dian chief, Pegius, who spoke with all
confidence of a man who knew what
he was talking about. He based his
opinion principally on the position
and movement Of the stars and de-
clared the dipper is exceptionally
slow in it's turning movements this
season.
This fact, he stated, is an unfailing
sign of long continuance Of warm
weather. Other signs, not so infal-
iible in themselves, but taken in con-
junction with the stars, in his opinion
clinch the matter. They are, the ex-
ceptionally cool nights that have pre-
vailed this summer, the fact that
ducks are later than usual in coming
back from the north, and the late
Matching season, with the number of

Aged

Dr.. J. R. w. Ward, SO, says he
smokes GO cigarettes day and is
against prohibition. Before grabbing
his heavy smoking as the cause Of
his advanced years, consider this
probability:
He is old despite his smoking, not
on account Of it.
Ward attributes his longevity to
minding his own business and never
to worrying about anything. A sem
slbie formula.

STRUGGLE OF CENTURIES
ENDED

For centuries there has been a
struggle between England and Ire
land but this is now believed ended
with the final passage of all act by
both houses in London. The struggle
between freedom and slavery was
also centuries old and one may easily
recall other warfares which have
burned bitterly in the human mind
for many decades. So far as England
IS concerned the new government of
the Irish Free State comes into being
under favorable auspices, the press
and public with but few exceptions
being entirely in accord with the for
ward movement ON the Emerald isle.
OF course there are certain things
the followers of the new flag will
not be able to do but they will enjoy
just as much freedom as the people
Of Canada, Australia, or New Yea
land The whole world rejoices that
the bitterness has been made sweet
and that the sun will now shine where
there has been a storm.

has done nothing but propagate fall

The socialists have been their own
worst enemies, and the very crazi-

to failure. Even Lenine and Trotzky,
after trying socialism on the poor
Russians and making tragedy of it,
have just declared that their main
purpose must henceforth be to kill
off-not the capitalists, but the so
cialists, who they declare are the
worst enemies" Of the masses.
