the creation of a commission for in

setting of a definite date for disposal
of the mandate over Palestine.
The last thing the council did was
to decide to support Germany in her
protest to the league against the
treatment of more than a million Ger
mans residing in Poland. They were
barred from citizenship by a ruling
that Germans must prove continuous
residence in Poland for six years.
Nearly all Of them were serving in
the German army during the var and
so are deprived of citizenship. The
council determined to urge strongly
on Poland the reconsideration Of the
ruling.

whether Japan intended to engage in
a truce in the Far East or to continue
the state of war in Siberia. Viscount
Ishii's swift reply vas that regardless
of past differences among the Rus
slams which had necessitated the
presence of japanese troops in 81
IBERIA to protect the property of their
nationals, Japan was now ready to
conclude a non-aggression pact In the
Far East if the Chita republic also
complied with the truce.
Tchitcherin then %squabbled with the
Poles, Rumanians and others over
alleged plans of anti-Bolshevik lead
ers to organize expeditions against
Russia, but was again squelched.
When he asked that what is left of
General Wrangel's army be removed
farther from Russia, Mr.. Lloyd George
retorted: "Who wants them? We
don't" The British premier severely
scored Tchitcherin's defense of Russia
as an innocent, patient, and tolerant
model of all the Christian virtues"
and in concluding said. Speaking
after 16 years as a minister, longer
than anyone else here, I believe the
best we can do is to mind u own
business. Organizing an expedition
under General Wrangel to convert the
heather In Russia or under MN.
Tchitcherin and Litvinoff to convert
the heather in our country will only
bring trouble"
The Russian delegates have been
trying hard to "save their faces" and
it is predicted they will not be en-
Enthusiastically received by the o ex-
IRENE communists at home. They
have the treaty with Germany to heir
credit, but they have failed to obtain
recognition for their government, and,
what hurts more, they haven't the
ghost of a show of getting the huge
loan which was demanded.

ROGRESS in the senate debate
L over the tariff is outrageously
slow, despite the fact that night SEES
sions are being held. This is by no
means due altogether to the Demo-
cratic opposition. Republican mem
bers are so lax in their attendance
that Senator McCumber felt called on
to take them to task, telling them if
they couldn't keep on the job they
should resign. The Democrats attack
especially the section of the bill which
gives the President power to raise or
lower duties within a range of 80
per cent and to proclaim American
valuation This, they assert, is un-
constitutional.

nLD-LINE Republicans received an
~ other jolt last week, in the suc-
cess of Clifford Pinchot who defeat
ed George E. Alter for the guberna-
torial nomination in PENNSYLVANIA.
AS was the case after the Indiana
primaries, the Democrats hailed the
result as a blow al the national ad-
ministration, which was denied by the
Republican leaders. Really, Mr.. Pin
chot, ardent c~onservationist and for
mer Progressive, owed his nomination
largely to the women of PENNSYLVANIA.
They took an active part In the cam
paign all ver the state, and appeared
at the polls in full force.
Senator Pepper easily defeated Con-
gressman-at-Large William J. Burke
for the nomination to fill the unex-
pired term of the late Senator Pen
rose. and David A. Reed of Pitts
burgh was nominated for the unex-
pired term of the late Senator Knox

N OCTOR WIEDFELDT, the recent

many to the United States, just be-
fore he left Berlin concluded a con-
tract by which the Krupp establish
ment was granted a concession of
$4,000 acres of land in Russia to be
used in raising food supplies for the
Russians. Berlin says this concession
gave rise to the false report that
the Russo-German treaty contained a
secret military clause including Krupp
delivery of var materials. Dispatches
from the German capital state that
the success of the Krupp project de-
ponds on the cooperation of America

Hoover that America should supply
agricultural machinery, grain and

a CCORDING to the accepted plan,
"A the nations represented at Genoa
will send delegates to The Hague, and
from them will be selected a commits
sion that will deal with the financial
and economic problems involved in
the recognition of soviet Russia, but
not with political affairs. The find
ings will be submitted to the various
powers, ana, if they are approved, the
commission will begin conferences with
a commission of Russians. Mean
while the eight months truce with the
soviet republics will be in effect and
the powers will not enter into separ-
ate treaties with Moscow or back their
nationals in trying to obtain property
in Russia which did not belong to
them before the soviets came into
control there.
Because it already has made a
treaty with Russia, Germany is not
to be included in the negotiations at
The Hague. To this exclusion NJ.
Tchitcherin made strong objection, on
the ground that one of the chief OBJ
jects of the meeting. credits, was not
dealt with In the RapallO pact. The
Russian leader also had a hot ex-
change with the Japanese. asking

TN PASSING upon the constitutional
L ity of the grain exchange law the
Supreme court of the United States
found that the taxing features of the
measure are unenforceable. Therefore
the agricultural bloc In congress, un-
der the leadership of Senator Capper
of Kansas, is drawing up a revamped
bill to overcome the objections. In
place of the taxing power the new
bill will probably provide for federal
control over exchanges by declaring
their activities to be a form Of in
terstate commerce and therefore sub
ject to government supervision.

Genoa Conference Ends After
Planning Farley on Russia
at The Hague.
EIGHT MONTHS TRUCE SIGNED
America Declines Invitation to Partici
pate in the New Meeting-Good
Work by League of Nations
CounciI-Pinchot's Vic
tory in Pennsylvania.
BY EDWARD w. PIcKARD

TOTAL results from the Genoa con-
l. ference that was to bring about
the regeneration of Europe, econOmi-
cally and financially, and which has
adjourned, appear to be: Plans for
new negotiations for a settlement of
relations with Russia, to be carried on
by commissions which will meet in The
Hague In June; a truce Of eight
months between all the soviet repub-
lies and the other European powers;
a clearer comprehension on the part
of the world of the arrogant attitude
and ~extravagant demands of soviet
Russia; and a repeated affirmation of
the position Of the United States, that
1t will not participate in the political
wrangles of Europe and will not enter
into dealings with the Moscow govern
ment until the latter recognizes its in
ternational obligations.
The last mentioned result came
when the Genoa conference invited the
United States to take part in the pro-
posed negotiations at The Hague, vir-
tually admitting that without the aid
of Americas financial resources any
agreements for the commercial regen-
Grafton of Russia would be useless.
Secretary Hughes reply, after express
ing the deep sympathy of this country
for the people of Russia and its de-
sire to aid them in every practicable
way, continued:
"This government, however, is IN
able to conclude that it car helpfully
participate in the meeting at The
Hague, as this would appear to be a
continuance, under a different nomen-
cIature of the Genoa conference, and
destined to encounter the same diff
culties, If the attitude disclosed in the
Russian memorandum of May IL re-
mains unchanged.
1.-The inescapable and ultimate ques-
ton would appear to be the restora'
ton of productivity in Russia, the es-
sential conditions of which are still
to be secured and must, In the nature
of things, be provided within Russia
herself"
Intense disappointment was caused
in Genoa BY this answer, and though
it seemed final, some of the delegates
especially the British, refused so tt
consider it. Before the meeting a
The Hague gets under way it is likel.
another attempt will be made to OBJ
tain the cooperation of the United
States.

THE Supreme court knocked out
l. another piece of legislation last
week, holding that the child labor
law, passed in 1919, is %unconstitu-
tional, as an attempt by congress to
regulate through its taxing power
something entirely within the juris-
diction of the various states in the
exercise of their police power. The law
was designed to regulate the employ
ment of children in any mill, cannery,
workshop, factory or manufacturing
establishment, under the age of four
teen or in any mine or quarry under
sixteen years by imposing an excise
tax of 10 per CEN upon the net an
nual profits of those employing such
labor. The Supreme court ruling is
in effect another victory for the mill
owners of Southern states.

Thus spoke former Emperor
Charles OF Austria Hungary. serene
and calm At the moment Of his death.
The body Of the former emperor

form Of a field marshal, lay today
in the chapelle ardente Of the house
that has been his residence since he

had been enbalmed the body was

Vienna, Auril 2.--(By A. PHO
official recognition of the death Of
former Emperor Charles thus far
has been given by the republic.
Neither half masted flags nor the
customary display of sable bunting
were, to be seen in Vienna today.
The absence of the aristocracy from
the usual Sunday resorts and large
increase in the attendance At the
churches were the only private evi-
dences Of recognition Of the, death
of the last Haspurg ruler. IL
The voluminous obituaries and ap-
precautions Of the former emperor
king which fill the press are color
less but kindly. They dwell upon
the virtues OF Charles as man, hus-
band and father, but excuse him as
statesman; for being weIl-meanlng

more for the people. The ciYcum-
