United Press Leased Wire

SAN FRANCISCO, April 8.-A fur
cher Improvement in demand for fancy
potatoes is reported by dealers. Dealers
are in the market for fancy Rivers and
Gems which are rather scarce and are
willing to pay rs high as 81 cwt. for
them ut the wharf. With the under
grades it is quite different and they are
still hard to move.
The asparagus market was firm and
few dealers were asking higher prices
due partly to the fact that one boat con-
tanning some 500 boxes was late in ar
irving.
Supplies Of rhubarb are increasing
and some dealers are selling on n small
margin to clean up their stocks.
A few crates of summer squash from
the Imperial Valley sold on the streets
this morning at 1915 to $500 a Grade
This is about the second shipment of
summer squash this season.

him as continuing:
Premier Poincare's speech was a
very serious declaration, made without
any consultation with the allies and is
not calculated to improve cooperation
among the allies. 1t has nothing to do
with Genoa, but French opinion is un-

LAKE FOR MONSTER

Buenos Aires. April 25.-(By The

the lake visited by the expedition
searching for a plesiosaurus was not
the lake where Martin Sheffield as
serted that he had seen some un-
known monster. Professor OnelN
added that the expedition Wednesday
would procede to the point Sheffield
had indicated.
According to Prof. Onelli. there are
many lakes in the region where the
expedition now is, and the one in
which the dynamite was exploded is
called Correntoso. The Indians re-
ported they had seen a large, strange
animal in this lake.
Emilio Frey, head Of the expedition.
has reported to Professor Onelli that
the dynamite explosions in the lake
produced no results except two water
lizards. which came to the surface II
cave which the lake enters. These
water lizards were identical with
species found in the subterranean
lakes in the Tyrolean Alps
The expedition is sending back to
Buenos Aires four rare animals Of
the deer family which never before
have been brought out from the
Andes. These animals, according to
Prof. Onelli. alone are almost worth
the cost of the plesiosaurus expedition.

Tchitcherin Lays All on Allies

TchitcherIn Lays All on Allies
Foreign Minister Tchitcherin declar-
ed to the Associated Press Tuesday
that allied resistance to the Russian
principle of naturalization was blocking
the economic conference.
1T is obvious he said, that the
only serious obstacles to peace with
Russia and general reconstruction are
the pretensions of few former own
ers of property in Russia
The Russian minister's statement
was called out by the high tension de-
veloped over Russia's claims which are
considered in some quarters as threat
ening to disrupt the conference.
He insisted, however, that it was the
efforts of the allies to resist Russia's
right TO nationalize property and their
attempt to infringe upon her sover-
eighty IN that connection that were
holding UP the work of the experts and
delaying the conferences progress.
French Are Restless
The experts on the Russian ques-
tions, sitting without the soviet dele
gates Tuesday, compared notes on the
new proposals presented by the Rus
sian delegates at Mondays session and
decided to forward their report to their
respective governments. 1t is expected
that when the answers are received
from the various capitals. the powers
will submit counter propositions to the
soviet. couched in firm language, in IN
endeavor to reach a working basis for
an accord.
We cannot stay here forever" said
a French delegate Tuesday night.
Disturbed by English RepercussIon
They are disturbed over the manner
in which the English have interpreted
Premier Poincaire's address. The
French spokesman made it clear that
all Frenchmen are alarmed over future
military possibilities Of the Russo Ger
nan treaty and that NJ. Poincare was
merely voicing Frances genuine dis |
luietude. There are certain indica-
tions there that France, with her
iwindling population is fearful of the
increasing German popula-
ton, united with mighty Russia. The
French attitude toward Russia is de-
scribed as like that of Japan towards
china-each wants an organized and
,roperous neighbor. but does not de-
'ire that the neighbor be SO strong as
o loom up as a possible menace.
