Washington, April 26.-Representa-
tive Johnson, Republican, South Da-
kota, declared in the house today
that investigation of the bureau of
engraving and printing would show
that hundreds of millions Of dollars
in spurious certificates had been print
ed and put into circulation.
Some of the duplicate. liberty
bonds, Mr.. johnson declared, ran 1OO,l
900 higher in numbers than those
legally issued, and added that in one
instance a negro taxicab driver in
Washington, he was informed, WIS
found with thirty-one one thousand
dollar spurious bonds in his posses
sion.
Asserting that the credit Of the
country should not be damaged by
reckless statements in congress, Rep
resentative Wingo, Democrat, Arkan-
sas, declared that 'When Secretary
Mellon denied any duplication, | can
not and will not believe he uttered q
faisehood."
Mr.. Wingo said Mr.. Mellon woule
not have denied wrong doing at the
bureau unless he knew of his owr
knowledge that none existed.

Germany Signs Treaty
With Soviet Russia
CONTINUED from Page One)

A notice embodying such exclu-
sion was sent this evening to the
head of the German delegation here.
The German foreign minister, Rath-
enau in statement, protested against
the exclusion of Germany as unfair.
The CONSERVATION caused by the
German-Russian coup included in
the treaty at Rappelo showed no
signs of abating as the economic
conference delegates continued their
deliberations today. On the contrary,
as the different national groups ex-
amined the text of the new agree
ment and deliberated upon its pos
sible effect upon the future balance
of power in Europe, they were inn
pressed with the deep Importance,
the signing of this pact is likely to
have on the general political situa-
ton.
Premier Lloyd George himself went
so far as to say the pact was a step
in the direction of dividing Europe
into separate camps.

He Believes Economic Conae1e"10
Will Prove Success.

Genoa, April 20.-The economic
conference tonight was without a
settlement Of the Russo-German
treaty incident after day given over
to private conferences between the
Germans. Russians and all sorts OF
ententes. I
At a great assenrb1age OF the
worlds press, Premier Lloyd George
of Great Britain told the neWspa-
per1nen of 40 nations that the Ger
mans would accept the conditions
inonosed bv the allies and that the
Russian attitude toward the Lonao'l
experts report would be such tnat

sible-
The Germans announced they were
still considering a reply to the notes
of the big and little entente, deny
ing them admission to the discussions
of the Russian questions unless the
Russo German treaty were resclndeo
or amended. .r
Premier Lloyd George told the
newspaper correspondents he believed
profoundly in the success of the con-
ference and was convinced it Woaid
end in complete restoration OF
harmony in Europe. I'M.
The premier said the incident with
the Germans over the Rapallo treaty
practically had been settled and ne
believed the soviets' reply to. the al,
lied proposals regarding Russia would
be such as to permit further negotl-
atoms.
Unless the conference adopted the
proposed agreement pledging against
aggressive action, Lloyd George said
he would consider the conference a
failure, but he was convinced the
agreement would be adopted. He add
ed he believed the conferences WORK
should be continued by the league OF
nations.
The British premier announced to-
day the political commission OF the
economic conference would meet To-
morrow to consider the Russian re-
Div to the allied proposal transmitted
to the Russian delegates last week.
He said the German delegation. te
the economic conference had agreed
to accept the conditions Of the al
lies note not to participate in furtt'
Fer discussion on Russian affairs as
result of having signed the Rapale
treaty.

Russians Present Acceptable Basis TO
Allies for Discussion OF Future sSe-
Iatic,.s of Nations.

Genoa, April 21.-The economic
conference made forward strides to-
dav. Elimination of the Russo-German
treatv from controversy and soviet
Pussia's acceptance of allied csndi-
tions concerning foreign debts and
confscated property produced the
hone that Europe's greatest confer
ence will accomplish something real
for the reconstruction Of Europe, in
Guiding Russia.
Demands of the Polish delegates
accented, including the waving by
Russia of that country's claims and
recognizance of war debt to that
government.
ancial support was summed up ~
former President Motto of SWitzer-
land, who said that without the as
sistance of the United States it would
be difficult for Europe to win gut.
Prominence is given in the press dis
patches from America today that
public opinion there did not expect as
sistance would be given until Europe
nut her house in order and got to
work.
A sub-comnission of 10 members
on Russian affairs, Germany being
eliminated, met with the Russian
delegates this afternoon, and inform
ed them their reply was satisfactory
! as basis for discussion.
The German reply 10 the allied
ultimatum accepts the condition that
the German delegates be barred
from participating IN further discus
sions of the Russian question at the
Genoa conference, the Russo-Gernan
treaty of Rapallo being allowed to
stand.
| If Russia is granted recognition de
jure and adequate financial help the
Russians are willing to admit Rus
sia's war debts and pre- war debts
waive any counter claims and restore
the use of nationalized property tc
former owners or to satisfy claims
of foreigners in cases where proper
ty cannot be restored.
AS justifying their contention that
the allies could not as matter OF
right demand compensation for pro-
nerty, the Russians cite the aboli-
ton of slavery in the United States
where neither American nor foreign
er was compensated, and the adop.
ton of prohibition in America, where
no compensation was given produc-
ers of alcoholic drinks.

Cattidino today, have agreed witt

FRANCE INSISTS TREATY
MUST BE CANCELLED

Paris, April 18.-High government
officials declared this afternoon there
is no possibility of continuing the
discussions at Genoa unless the Rus
so-Germany treaty is cancelled. Ev-
en- if annulled, it is said, the moral
effect will remain of two parties to
the conference maneuvering on the
side to forestall the conferences

Premier Poincare assembled his
cabinet today to consider the atti-
tude to be taken by France if Russia
and Germany propose to maintain a
separate agreemnt regarding Russia's
restoration. It was decided to with
hold announcement of the policy
temporarily agreed upon until a re-
port from Genoa of the action taken
at meeting of the principal dele
gates there to consider the treaty.
