CANDIDATES met BY
LARGE CROWD TUESDAY
Bruce And Goldsborough Speak At
Democratic Rally Staged
In Snow Hill.

In the swing around the "Shore,'
the candidates for the Senate and
House at Washington, VIM. Cabell
Bruce, and T. Alan Goldsborough re-
spectively, are meeting with all en-
couragement they desire if large and
enthusiastic audiences satisfy them.
In their visit to Snow Hill they evil
IDENTIFY knew how to reach the hearts
of the multitudes, by eulogizing the
restor of Worcester politicians
John Walter Smith. Mr.. Bruce ascrib-
ed his nomination for the Senate to
Mr.. Smiths influence, stating that
work for his nomination was not
started till the ex-senator gave the
word.
Mr.. Goldsborough was disposed to
credit his election to Mr.. Smith: all of
which goes to show the great power
still welded by this master of
politics.
Mr.. France seems to be apI ealing
to race feeling, and is promising to do
great things for the colored brother
in the way of travel privileges. This
is an old trick, and the negro gener-
ally finds himself after the election in
about the same situation as he was
before he cast his vote for the "prom-
ising" candidate.
The situation in Worcester az pears
to be harmonious. fractional differ
cnces seem to be settled, and with an
active democratic woman constit ency
enthusiastically at work, the MA ority
in this county for the democrat can
didates will hover around 500 OF 1000.
Success such as this, howevc de-
pends upon the getting out { { the
vote. There is such a split the
ranks of the G. o. P. in the Stat that,
as result of this feeling, a ctrtain
apathy h settled down up,1 the
democratic oters. They think elect
ion of their candidates is certa; and
it is not necessary to run up b : ma
jority. Let every voter dismis this
from his mind. Come out and V tie so
that old Worcester may rank IS the
banner county of the State.

He also pointed out that real meteor

from masses of terrestrial origin, which
have as much as 1.5 per cent Of copper.
A large mass now in the Stockholm

FRANCE MAY ACCEPT
CENOA'S SOLUTION

Paris. April 21.-(By A. P.)-The
exclusion of the Germans from discus
sion of Russian affairs at Genoa is not
considered by the French Government
US closing the incident involved in the
signing Of the Treaty Of Rapallo be-
tween Germany and Soviet Russia.
It was pointed out in Government
circles today that the bearing Of the
Russo German treaty on the Treaty of
Versailles could not be considered at
Genoa because Of the conditions govern
ing the conference laid down at Cannes.
which barred discussion of the peace
treaties signed by France. Consa-
quently. it is argued. it remains for the
Allies to deal with the infraction of the
Versailles pact alleged to be involved in
the Rapallo agreement.
1t is understood Premier Poincarc' s
instructions to Vice Premier Barthou
at Genoa were 70 demand cancellat ton
of the Rapalla Treaty. and one of the
questions discussed by the Cabinet to-
day was whether the French delegation
should accept the simple exclusion OF
the Germans from the discussion of
Russian affairs as m end to the matter.
Premier Poincare is said to have been
dissatisfied with NJ. Bnrthou's depart
ure from his instructions, but being
anxious to avoid responsibility for the
breaking up Of the conference decided to
accept the solution of the problem
adopted at Genoa.

are as free as anybody else to do as
they choose" Mr.. Sproul said.
The Governor expressed surprise
when his attention was called to Judge
Isaac .Iohnson's bare handed arraign-
ment of the Sproul regime. The vet.
eran jurist said the main issue in
Delaware County is ''the elimination
Of Sproul and his miscellaneous gang"

II don't want to engage in con-
troycrsy over every one who comes out

He professed absolute confidence that

Mccoy, secretary to Health Commis-
sioner Martin, is travelling with Alter
and making arrangements for his
speaking dates.
While Governor Sproul denied his
Administration Is directly campaigning
for Alter Administration leaders admit
that county leaders are bringing pres
sure to bear on State employees in an
effort to help Alter.
W. Harry Baker. secretary Of the
State Committee. is hard at work in
behalf of Alter. The last few days he
has been sounding sentiment, and has
discovered that there is more Pinchot
ayers care to think about. Hence Baker
has called on every loyal organization
leader in the State 10 get busy and to
keep on his toes right up TO election
day. Probably never before has such a
personal appeal been made to the little
county bosses to save the "honor Of the
organization. o.,
Supplementing this intensive cam
paigning by Baker and others,
Alter, driven from the seclusion
of his front porch by the stinging shafts
Of Pinchot, is now on the stump and
declaring to all who will listen that his
candidacy is not the result Of a deal be :
tween the contractor bosses. Yesterday
Mr.. Alter toured thirteen towns in Blair
County, where day or so ago the For.
ester won brilliant support.
In sounding out sentiment Baker has
heard that Judge johnson, Of Delaware
County, Is out for Pinchot. The veteran
of Governor Sproul. Last year he was

Governor to place Senator MacDade on
the bench as his successor. Another
jolt was received by the Alter man :
ayers when Judge George w. Maxey.
Of Lackawanna County, came TO town
in answer to Bakers 3. o. S. call for
help. The Judge was for Harry A.
Mackcy for Governor. Now he says in
effect that he and his friends are too
busy with local contests to bother about
Alter. Organization leaders. friends
Of Alter, now concede that Lackawanna
County will go for Pinchot. Judge
Maxey stated his position in chats with
Senator Ware and Baker.

DIR. Rathenau has stated on several oc.
casions---that negotiations for the con :
clusion of the Russo German treaty had
begun long ago, were known to have
been in progress By all the European
Governments and had lately been sus-
pended out of difference to the con-
ference.
But the exclusion Of Gcrmsny from
the negotiations held by the Allies with
the Russians at the Villa dc Albertis
gave to the Germsn delegation the i'm.
preston that the Allies we're trying to
conclude arrangements with the Soviet
Government without German participa L.
tion, perhaps to Germany's detriment.
Call Treaty Pacific Move
At certain moment, perhaps
through misundersta nding. the German
delegation received the impression that
agreement with the Russians. There.
fore the German. Russo negotiations
were resumed and resulted in the sign :
ing of tine treaty at Rapallo on Easter
Sunday.
The German delegation believes that
this treaty does not violate the spirit
of the conference. and, indeed. con
tributes to its supreme aim--pacifica
tion Of the world and reconstruction OF
Europe.
The note admits that. after the con {.
clusion Of this treaty, the German dele
CATION has no reason to participate in
the work Of the first commission, deal
Ing with Russian affairs. but says IL
will willingly participate in the other
work Of the same commission dealing
with European and German interests.
The text Of the final clause in the
German note reads:
with regard to the further treat :
ment of the Russian question in the
conference. the German delegation also
thinks it right that it should take part
in che deliberations OF the first
commission on the questions correspond =
ing to those already settled between
Germany and Russia only in case its
collaboration be especially asked for"
Delay in delivering the note was due
chiefly to differences of opinion among
the Germans themselves as to the best
attitude to take. some fearing the reper q.
cussion il might have Ia French quar-.
ters, as the French delegates had kept
themselves severely aloOf during the
whole incident.
The statement made by Prime Min
lister Lloyd George. Of Great Britain,
before the journalists at the meeting in
the Royal Palace yesterday. however,
was interpreted to mean that France
was in perfect agreement with the othc,
