Russ Wants Discussion.

Wy iHt titr"J
Genoa, April 19.-The Russian del
egation to the Genoa conference an
nounced today that II will ask that
the Russo-German treaty be dis
cussed at plenary session and put
to a vote.
This was the soviet answer to the
allied protest against the CONNER
cial agreement privately signed at
Rapallo on Easter Sunday by Ger
man and Russian foreign ministers.
An allied note of protest, penned
by Lloyd George, was addressed to
Germany, and the German delegation
was expected to reply today. AL
though the allies, acting in concert
with the "little entente" have in
formed Germany she can have no
further part in Genoa negotiations
concerning Russia, it was considered
doubtful that Wirth and Rathenau
would take this rebuke to heart and
go home. Germany, 1t was pointed
out, has completed, by means of the
treaty, any agreement she cared to
make with Russia.
The Genoa conference is in state
Of turmoil, through the outspoken
passing of the lie in bitter exchanges
between Lloyd George and Rathenau,
German foreign minister.
Did Lloyd George know of the Rus.
sian-German treaty before it was
signed?
Rathenau says "yes," and that he
tried repeatedly to furnish the British
premier with details but was put
aside.
Lloyd George declares this an utter
falsehood and says the treaty came
as complete surprise, astonishing
everyone.
The German, according to news
paper correspondents who called
upon him, then said Lloyd George
lied, if he Uloyd George) claimed
to have had no previous knowledge
that Russia and Germany planned
separate agreement.

place said she thought there were
five in the car and that she heard

CONSERVATION FIGHT
SEEN AS NEXT MOVE
Senate Passes Resolution Asking
Full Information on Contracts;
Expect Storm to Break When
Details Are Aired.
By HERBERT W. WALKER.

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent }
Washington. April 10. - Another
great conservation" fight. which
may rival the Pinchot con.
troversy OF the Taft administration.
looms as the result OF the action OF
Secretary Fall and Secretary DENLY
in opening up naval oil reserves In
Wyoming and California to private
interests.
Fall admittedly has won his first
victory in his plan to open up vast
national resources to private devel-
opment through the signing of con-
tracts with the Mammoth oil COM
pany OF Delaware, Sinclair con.
cern, for taking oil from the Tea
Pot Dome, Wyoming naval reserve
and with the Pan-American Petrole-
um company for the California re-
serves.
Big Storm Brewing.
But in congress and among the
conservationist forces storm is
brewing. The senate has passed
resolution of Senator Kendrick, Wy
oming, asking complete information
regarding the contracts. When this
is given the storm is expected to
break.
1t will also involve the policy Of
Fall for the development Of Alaska
and the dispute now raging between
Fall and Secretary Wallace over
the proposed transfer of the fore
bureau from the agriculture to tie
interior department.
The oil controversy, involving a
huge amount of the product which
admittedly will play most vital
part in the national defense. because
of the large number of oil burning
battleships, centers around whether
oil under the ground can be con-
served, or whether government
pool can be tapped by private wells,
Just outside the government land.
Reversal Of Policies.
Believing oil could thus be con-
served, the Taft and Wilson admin
istrations closed most of the oil re-
serves. The FallIDenby action indi-
Gates the present administration ia
vors opening them, making con-
tracts such as the ones just signed
under which the government will
get as high as fifty per cent Of the
oil taken out and then store it at
strategic points for use by the fleet
in an emergency.
But the conservationist forces
claim the oil should be left in the
ground or taken out by the govern
ment so that it would get all of

The present plan of the navy is to
build huge tanks for storing the oil.
Three of these for instance, prob.

a huge she'll proof oil reservoir in

Los Angeles, April 19.-While the
celluloid belt buzzed with excitement
over the banning by Will Hays,
czar of the motion picture industry,
of all Fatty Arbuckle films, the
big comedian waited today for the
arrival of Joseph Schenck, his pro-
ducer, from New York.
His fat face was puckered into a
puzzled expression as he shook his
head at interviewers.
Il have nothing to say until Mr..
Schenck gets here" said Arbuckle.
Hell explain this thing. It's darned
funny. thought was on my way
to a comeback"
Only First Step.
Hays act in barring Arbuckle's
films is understood to be only the
first step in a sweeping campaign
to clean up the movies. Such a
campaign by Hays was forecast by
the United Press before he actually
took up his new work. Other film
characters who have been involved
in scandals are liable to be exiled
by Hays if his preliminary examina-
tion into their cases indicates guilt.
At Hays office today it was stated
that there was no temporary" clause
in the order banning Arbucklec pic
lures. Fatty's smiling countenance
is banished, that is all.
There were rumors here today of
a possible outlaw league" Of movie
stars springing into existence If
Hays goes through with a program
of barring a number Of actors from
the organized movie industry. Such
an outlaw league would be allied
with independent exhibitors, it is be-
lieved.
