Gold Production In Russia.

The Russian trade delegation reports
that Siberia produced during the first
four months of the present year over
16 pools 1851 pound per poodD Of gold
according to the Engineering and Min
ing Journal-Press Of New York. This
quantity is five times greater than the
total output for 1921. Gold Is worth APP
proximately $1O,S00 per pood So that
the total value is $17cc,S0O or at an an-
nual rate Of only a little more than
$4,000. This compares with pro.
duction Of S2o,O00,OO0 in 1916 since
which time the output has fallen stead
lily until this slight revival. The gold
syndicate has succeeded in restartins
the gold mines at EIisatevinsk. Alevan-
drovsk, Ivanovsk and Youthnotaiginsk,
which will insure an output Of not less
than three pools monthly.

AMBASSADOR HARVEY
TALKS WITH BRITISH
PREMIER At CANIVES
rRepubIIcan A. p. Leased WlreJ


CANNES, France, Dec. 31.--George
Harvey. American Ambassador to
Great Britain, today had his first
conversation with Premier Lloyd
George since their arrival for next
weeks meeting Of the allied supreme
council. The interview was informal,
Ambassador Harry told the cor
respondent that his talk was of a
general nature and did not include
discussion of the submarine or any
other question in which the United
States was vitally interested.
He let ii be known that the United
States would make no move for a
more active part in the council meet
ing, and said Americas position
would be the same as at the councils
last meeting in Paris, despite British
reports to the contrary.
1t was said today that Mr.. Harvey
might take part in the preliminary
conversations between Mr.. Lloyd
George and Premier BRAND If the
submarine question should come up.
Those who are making arrangements
for the council meeting. which is re-
garded as the most important delib-
GRAFTON since the Paris peace con-
ference, have taken peace and tran
quality as their motive.

the most beautiful on the Rivera,

DENVER PACKERS To
REDUCE WAGES TEN
. PER CENT At ONCE
TRepubIlean A. p. Leased WlreI

DENVER, Dec. 31.--A wage cut of
ten per cent, affecting approximately
$50 packing house employees, is ex-
pected to be put into effect here
within few days as a result of the
decision of the state industrial COM
mission today that the reduction is
reasonable and iustifiable.
In its decision, given this after
noon, the commission characterized
the present packing house strike as
unlawful" and declared that the
men walked out in defiance of the
state industrial law which prohibits
a strike while the commission has
the controversy under investigation.
The reductions authorized by the
commission and against which the
employees struck several weeks ago
are:
Three cents an hour for employees
getting so cents an hour or more;
Five cents an hour for employees
getting more than 45 and less than
so cents an hour;
Seven and one-half cents an hour
for employees getting as cents per
hour or less;
Eight per cent on piece work.

NEW YORK, Dec. 31-Prediction

British officers who served in advis-
Fory capacities at the conference.

as state boss of the party. He per-
fected an already smoothly running
political machine, gradually acquiring
an ever stronger position in national
politics. With Senators Murray
Crane and Nelson Aldrich, Penrose
long divided control of Republican
senatorial action and, with them,
shared leadership at national con-
ventions of the party following the
Mark Hanna era.
Penrose succeeded Aldrich as head
of the party in the Senate, and two
years ago became chairman or the
all-important finance committee. he
had long been prominent in that com
mittee and those on immigration and
most offices. As chairman Of the
finance committee Penrose returned
to washington early in the last ses-
sion of the 66th congress, to take up
active labor in preparing the new
revenue bill. This was after an ab-
sence from Congress of over a year,
due to his serious illness, which also
kept him from attending the Repub-
lican nationa, convention of June,
1920.
1t was said however, that he played
a dominating role in the conventions
proceedings, having telephone COM
munication to the convention hall
from his invalid chair.
Power in Committee
Penrose's senatorial work was sell
dom a matter of public notice. Few
were the speeches he made, content
ing himself with delivering shafts OF
sarcastic lightning. His best work
was done in the committee room
There he was a power, and So held.
But few matters of legislation bore
his mark as fer as public knowledgs
was concerned. There were two mo-
table exceptions. the Chinese Ex-
clusion bill and the Canadian Re-
ciprocity bill: these were openly
championed by Penrose. Usually his
advocacy or opposition was confined
exclusively t, the knowledge of those
aiding him to press a bin through
the Senate or to kill ii. Penrose
opposed woman suffrage and national
prohibition. He was paired against
the peace treaty as a bitter ender."
Helped Harding
At the Republican national con-
vention in 1920 il was said that PEN
rose, more than any other individual,
was responsible for the nomination
OF Harding. Although his first can
didate was Senator Watson of In
diana, and he was known to look
with favor on Senator Knox's can
didacy, he threw the full weight of
his support. which meant consider
able more than Pennsylvania's large
collection of delegates. TO Harding
when the moment of possible success
arrived
Senator Penrose was born Nov
ember l. 1850, and was educated by
private tutors and in Harvard. He
practiced law two years, devoted the
remainder Of his life to public office
and politics.

ARMS COMMITTEE
COMPLETES DRAFT OF
AIRPLANE AGREEMENT.
rRspubIican A. p. Leased WlreI

lREpuDiiCdn a r LEASED wire
WASHINGTON, Dec. 31-The final
draft of the report Of the arms sub
committee on aircraft was completed
today. While it's contents has not
been disclosed the protracted dis
cussions in the subcommittee are known
to have brought out the feeling among
representatives, of all five powers that
no impediment had been put in the
way of commercial development Of
aircraft such as might result from an
attempt to prevent creation of an
air force in each country quickly
convertible into war machines at need.
1t has been contended on the con-
trary by some experts that in gov
erning development of a new and
swift means of communication and
transportation, governments repre-
sented here would be taking a direct
step toward lessening the probabili-
ties of future wars. Scholars are said
to be agreed that uneven distribution
of natural resources among various
nations has been the underlying cause
of most wars. Another war promot-
ing factor, It has been held. has been
misunderstanding between people
due to lack of adequate communica-
ton facilities.
In the probable future development
of air navigation may lie cure for
these fundamental and hitherto un-
avoidable seeds of war, it has been
said. Through air transportation most
experts expect to see wider access to
natural resources of the world made
possible and a consequent lessening
in the struggle for actual physical
control of those resources. They also
anticipate gradual development Of
quick and easy communication
through air between widely settled
peoples and less chance Of misappre-
tensions which might lead to war.
