BRITAIN bA[KS At
J.. S. DRY TREATY
Refuses to Give America Right
to Search Ships.
GEDDES PRESENTS THE NOTE
International Law involved Held Too
Important for Even the Considera-
ton of change-WilI Help
Curb Illicit Booze.

Washington, Oct 17.-Under no cir
cumstances will the government of
Great Britain consider entering into a
reciprocal treaty arrangement with the
United States whereby the three-mile
limit of territorial water would be ex-
tended to facilitate the apprehension
of liquor smugglers suspected of opera
ating off American shores.
The refusal of the British govern
miles was communicated to Secretary
Hughes by Sir Auckland Geddes, the
British ambassador.
Hughes Asks Cooperation.
The British answer, dated October
13, was in reply to the American note
of June 26 last, in which Secretary of
State Hughes asked British co-opera-
to clearance papers and false reg
istries, and at the same time suggest
ed an extension of territorial waters.
Ir effect. the British foreign Office
instructed Ambassador Geddes to
inform the State department that the
principle of international law en-
bodied in the three-mile limit was too
important for even considering an in
fringement of it. Gveat Britain, the
note declared, always had opposed ex-
tension, and the situation confronting
the United States I'M regard to liquor
smuggling off it's shores is not re-
garded as sufficient ground. for de-
parture from the principle"
Cooperation Promised.
The note concluded with the pious
hope that the smuggling of which Sec
rotary Hughes complained is temper
airy, and that the United States gov
eminent in time will be able to check
it by its own efforts. With regard to
the abuses such as double clearance
papers, given by port authorities. the
false transfer of American ships to
British registry, and more careful
supervision of cargoes, the British
government extended sympathy and
promised the most complete co-opera-
ton.

Harding Thinks Body Should Get
Them or Be SuppIanted.
WILL ASK CHANGES IN LAW
Failure in the Shop Strike Is Cited
President in His December Mes
sage Will Advise Transfer of
Body to Washington.

Washington, Oct. 18-Important
changes in that portion of the Esch-
Cummins transportation act which af-
recommended by President Harding
in his annual message to congress
when it meets in December.
Most important of these will be the
removal of the board from Chicago to
Washington, and the redefnitiOn of it's
duties in such a manner that it will
cooperate more closely with the inter-
state commerce commission.
Failed in Shipments Strike.
Failure of the board either to fore
stall the shOpmen's strike or to assist
materially in its settlement is assumed
to be largely responsible for the Presi-
dents attitude. This, however, is not
official.
The official statement at the White
House was that, while the President
is not committed to abolition of the
board, he will unquestionably recon-
mend changes in the provisions Great
ing it.
The main purposes of these will be
to give the board teeth with which it
can handle strike situations. Failing
in this, the President is convinced it
should give way to another body con-
stituted with sufficient power TO meet
an emergency such as that which
threatened the country in the early
summer.
Congress to Do Work.
OF the Presidents actual recon-
mendations the most specific of these
will ask for the removal of the labor
board from Chicago to Washington.
The most important will deal with the
abilities of the board to meet strike
situations, and its procedure after a
strike is declared. They will not be
put in specific form.
The Presidents ideas with respect
to the needed legislation with regard
to powers and operations of the labor
board are decisive and emphatic. 1t
was learned on high authority, how
ever, that he prefers to have congress
solve the problem, putting the needed
legislation in language and form of it's
own choosing.
