RUSS DELEGATES
ARE ANGRY OVER
new PROPOSALS

The Hague, July 19.-(By the AS
ISOLATED Press.)-Every delegate tC
the Russian conference, now slightly
more than a month old, awoke today
with the feeling that things were ap
proaching climax. The Russian rep
resentatives were openly furious al
the manner in which they were sum
moned to discuss new proposals today
at the session of the joint sub-commit-
tee on private property and sat up un'
til an early hour considering whether
they should attend at all. They are
furious at the Allies failure to arrange
a meeting of all the leaders to discuss
together all the problems of the con-
ference and declared that nothing
could be gained by holding separate
detached meetings.
The French delegation has little
faith in the attempt to reopen the
conference, declaring that M. Litvin-
offs letter of yesterday contains moth
ing new. They insist that his letter
means that the Russians will not re-
store confiscated property and will not
talk compensation until they are sure
how much money they are going to get
from abroad.
Some delegates are openly accus-
ing the Russians of seeking to SOW
discord among the non-Russians with
the idea afterward Of fishing to their

pounds and which will be the home OF
the couple after their honeymoon in
Spain as the guests of King Alfonso
and their later trip to America.
The bridegroom, whose father, the
late Lord Milfordhayen, was Prince
Louis OF Battenburg until the king
abolished all the German titles held
by English royalty and is a young
naval officer who acted as aide to the
Prince of Wales on his tours OF Aus
tralia and Japan.

The Russian delegates later decided
not to attend today's meeting of the
joint subcommittee on private prop

conference saying they would attend
a meeting of the whole conference or
a meeting of the chairman of the three
subcommittee but would not deal
separately with any single sub-com-
mittee.

ficials are more rigid in the enforce
ment of the dry laws.
More than 5000 Ipids were conduct
ed in the state, 1.OOD of these being in
the vicinity of Des Aloines. the report
states. The increasing danger incurred
in selling liquor ha caused the price
to be doubled during the year. thus
making prOhibiton more effective

one of the greatest steps forward in the
year." the report says.
