TChiGhcrin's Views.

Genoa, April 25. (By Associated Press)--Foreign Minister Tchitcherin of soviet Russia declared to the As sociated Press this morning that it was allied resistance to the Russian principle of standardization which was blocking the conference here.
 Tt is obvious." said M Tchitcherin, that the only serious obstacles to peace with Russia and general recon struction are the pretentons Of few former owners of property in Russia. "
 New Conference Crisis.
 The Russian minister's statement was called out by the high tension de- veloped over Russia's claims which are considered in some quarters as threatening to disrupt the conference. He insisted, however that it was the efforts of the allies to resist Russia s right to nationalize property and their attempt to infringe upon her sover- eighty in that connection that were holding up the work of the experts and delaying that conferences pro- gram.
 There is no difference between our proposals of April "A and my letter to Mir. Lloyd George of April 20,' said NJ. Tchitcherin. "We merely ex- pained and developed the fourth phrase of our note (that dealing with the restoration of property to foreign ers) Tn my letter to Mir. Lloyd George it was said that we could re- store to foreigners who were former rn nf nrfy where it was possible. In our pro- posas yesterday we explained in de- tail that this was possible only in cases where our social and economic system and our fundamental laws per. mitted it.
 Sovereign Rights.
 Ut is quite clear that the mainten- ance of our sovereign rights and our principles for the reconstruction Of Russia. are to be strictly observed. To give to former owners the use of their property is, therefore, possible only in conformity with our sovereign laws and only when our fundamental laws permit this step in our policy of reconstruction, that is, in cases where our economic plan of reconstruction is now thrown aside.
 Further. it was said in my letter to Mir. Lloyd George that in other cases the just claims of former own CTS would be examined by us and would lead to separate agreements or would be adjusted by system to be elaborated now at this conference. This was also explained more in de- tail in our proposals of Monday.

Government Business.

Congressman Dickinson, of Iowa
has introduced a bill in the House
providing for government ownership
and control of the nitrate plant al
Muscle Shoals.
This move is inspired either by the
Western progressive (socialistic) idea
or as means to circumvent the Ford
proposition.
Just as likely Dickinson is one OF
those Administration Republicans
who voted for the ship subsidy. All
right to vote a bonus to the shipping
interests, but Mr. Dickinson draws
the line at Mr., Ford.
Aside, however, from all this mo-
tivating business, the absurdity of
government ownership and control of
the nitrate plant is full of bright ex-
pies from which the America people
have just emerged.
The trouble about government
ownership of the nitrate or any other
private business is one of the things
that the American people are very
much concerned about.
The proposition is made on the as
sumption, as all others Of this kind
are made, that failure is impossible.
But failures are not ell the attendant
evils of government ownership. Pub !
lie patronage and politics follow !
these enterprises and they become |
fixed institutions. Therefore if fail |
ure does not result as strictly a bus
mess enterprise, it is inevitable with
the politics of public patronage. The
institution grows and from self
supporting business it drops on the
shoulders of the taxpayers as q fail
ure, thing they cannot prevent and
never-ending incubus upon the
American public system.
Once fixed nothing will ever stop
government owned business, wheth-
sr success or failure. but red reyolu-
ion. {
Therefore this paper would rather "
rive Henry Ford the plant if he new 4
r made dollars worth Of cheap fer
ilizer This paper would also rather o
i've the shipping corporations a sub o
idy than to have the American mer- Is
hant marine load Of expensive and o
onsuming politics on the American Le
eople forever and forever l

SHE FAVoRs KNOWLES.

To Editor OF The Evening Journal;
Sir-When our forefathers estab-
ished this government they had in
mind a real democracy. that Is the
rule OF the people. the problem OF
those who are interested in good
government is the way in which this
power can be attained and used.
In the old New England towns,
the people held town meetings and
voiced their sentiments on public
questions. and thus legislation
was enacted by the people.
Today. people are governed by
legislative bodies, OF which. some
members represent special interests
and not the wishes OF the majority
of their constituents. The only way
that the people can rule is through
the initiative and referendum.
There are three candidates for the
Democratic nomination OF United
States Senator of Delaware. One Of
these is William W. Knowles. an
adherent of real democracy. He aid
ed the cause Of woman suffrage and
has been a consistent advocate OF
the initiative and referendum There
fore, William W. Knowles IS the
only logical candidate for whom to
vote for the United States Senate.
Yours truly
