Other reviewers besides Hodgson, IN.
cluding some moro sympathetic to-

for 'amiable segrcgation' on ths
grounds that it would be harmful and
that the case against the absorption
OF the Jews is, to say the least, not
proved. 1t would, according to Lord
Beaverbrook, be "a disaster TO an En-

Anti-War Pleas, He
Toys With Rivals

Thus has the Bolshevik leader met
his contemporaries.
Among tho Russians Tchitchcrin is
known as "the Hermit of the Kremlin"
"A name drawn from the secluded life
he lives at home. But here at Genoa
his life has been anything but Sc
cludcd. He works tirelessly, far into
the night, receiving visitors. talking
by telephone and radio with his chief
at Moscow, and planning the confer
ence campaign.
Preserves Monklike Quiet in
His Most Dramatic Moments
If suavity counts for much in diplo-
macy, Tchitchcrin has a marked ad-
vantage over his rivals here In place
Of the fierce energy of Lloyd George
and the excitabencss of Bnrthou, Tchi-
tcherin maintains an almost monklike
quiet about his person, even at the most
tense moments. He never fares up or
swings his arms. His tall, gaunt figure
sets off we'll the refined, drawing room
tenor Of his voice. His casional,
hardly perceptible, smile and the un-
easy look in his eyes almost betray his
apparent wish that he could give UP all
the strenuous life and go back to the
retired place in the Petrograd Foreign
Office that he occupied when | first met
him. He seems curiously out Of place
in the formal vestments of a profcs-
sional diplomat In fact when he ar
rived Mt Premier Facta's villa the other
night for an official dinner he was
carrying his dress silk hat in his hand.
1t seemed out Of place on his head and
he had no hesitation in going bare
headed, When he left he had no hat at
all, though I am unable to say whether
he left it at the Italian Premcr's villa.
Tchitchcrin is something of q lin
gust. Besides his own Russian he
speaks French, English and German
lucntly and enough Italian to make
himself completely at home among all
whom he meets here He has earned a
warm spot in the Italian heart by tell
ing them that his mother and father
were bctrothed in Genoa. here on the
scene Of his own successes.
At the Hotel Imperial, at Santa Mar
guerta, where the Russians are quar-
tered, Tchitcherin has three-room
suite - bedroom, reception room and
study. Long after the whole house is
asleep a nights the lights in the study
continue to burn. The Russian leader
is thinking how he can again make
Russia welcome as member of the
family Of nations without paying too
great a price. That he seems to stand
good chance of attaining the end he
seeks is the opinion of those persons
who are watching the conference pro-
Ceedinps from all sides

Figures In Sharp Contrast
To More Eminent Rivals

There is nothing in Tchitcherin's
personal appearance to bctray his
quality Of leadership. His thin, bent
figure and his retiring manners would
seem no match for the bustery, ener-
getic, alert tactics Of the British

In recent weeks the sum OF 81, SOC, 900
was paid for q single lease of 800

pose in citing this example is to show
the effort of an alleged monopoly to

The question is asked, "Can there
be one policy OF public good applied
TO one reserve and a different policy
to another? The Secretary of the In
terror is now in the position of hav-
ing one policy in Wyoming and an
other in Oklahoma with reference TO

The protest is filed by w. II. Gray.

the statement that he had been en-
powered to appoint committee to

The objections of the Independent
producers is on three grounds:
/. Against the policy OF the Secre-
tsry Of the Interior and the Secretary
of the Navy in opening the naval re-

2. Against the method of leasing
public land without competitive bid

tract entered into (Teapot Donhe) be-
tween Secretary Fall OF the Interior
and Secretary DENLY Of the Navy and
private interests.
s. Against the policy OF any depart

competitive or not, which would tend

Some Of the reasons which the in

basis Of their protests are:
There exists no emergency or ne

opening OF the naval reserves for ex-
ploitation at this time In order that
the navy might be supplied with the
various grades of oil required by IT,
