LONDON. Jan. 23.-Cilivian and Of
ficial England today mourned the
death of Viscount Bryce of Dechmont,
who passed away at Sidmooth yester-
day. Announcement of the death of
the noted statesman, author and
diplomat was unexpected. Weakness
of the heart interviewed in his illness,
and the end came suddenly.
AS a man of letteTs and a publicist,
VisCount Bryce was a world. figure.
Outside of his own country he was
best known in the United States,
where since the early eighties his in
terests had so largely celtered that he
was sometimes styled an English
Yankee" One remarkable thing re-
peatedly said OF him was that he knew
America better than most Americans.
His work The American Common

book in the schools of the United
States for the past generation-pro-
viding the spectacle of a foreigner in.

BOUNDARY AGREEMENT
IN IRELAND THOUGHT TO
HARBINCER OF PEACE

BELFAST, Jan. 23-Great impor
tance is not attached 20 statements is
sued by Michael Collins and Sir
James Craig relative to their negotia
tions regarding a boundary between
heretofore discordant sections of the
island
The Northern Whig, a Unionist or
gan, while taking this view, admits it
hopes the agreement is a harbinger
of peace, and says that the lifting of
the boycott of northern Ireland by the
Sim Feiners will be a step in that
direction.
"The bitterness engendered by the
past three years viii not disappear in
a day the newspaper says, but it
should be the earnest endeavor Of ev-
eryone desirous of peace and good will
TO work toward such an end. Real
peace is worth winning, and must be
won"
Commenting upon. the agreement the
Irish News says: "The attempt TO
dissect Ireland has failed, and wise
men who have recognized that fact are
laying the foundations of reunion. The
agreement plainly has been framed to
| lead to better things, and should clar-
| ify the situation for all nationalists in
| the six counties of Ulster, it is their
| duty TO devise a more suitable method
| of preserving and advancing their ma.
terial interests than the curiouSly in
| effective method of doing nothing"
DUBLIN. Jan. dissatisfaction with
/ the agreement reached between Mich
ael Collins and Sir James Craig the
premier of Ulster, relative to the
| boundary between north and south Ire
land. was expressed today by the Dub
| lin Independent.
! 1T is Il great and decided advance
toward Irish union" the newspaper
declared, and this advance is all the
| greater because an agreement was
scarcely hoped for at this early stage
| of the negotiations. Since so mucf
has been accomplished is it too much
| TO hop> that greater and more vita
agreements will follow future confer
| ences?"

MOSCOW, Jan. 23.-Delegates from
Japan, China, Korea. Mongolia and the
far eastern republic of Siberia are
here for the congress of oppressed
far eastern peoples, which opened yes
terday Neither India nor the Islamic
countries are represented.
The object of the conference will
be to bring the peoples represented
closer together independent of their
rulers. according to DR.. Katayana, the
Japanese socialist, who will be the
best known personality in the con-
ference, and who is active in arrang-
ing it He declares that, while politi-
cal in purpose, the conference will be
non-partisan, and therefore with only
a minor Communist delegation.
DR.. katayana who spoke for Japan
in the ninth all soviet congress, held
in December, was recently in New
York and in Mexico for a number OF
months, leaving America in October
The Chinese delegate will be KanS
Kan-Hu, who has lived in the United
States. He has been in Moscow for d
number of months.
The original plan was to hold the
conference at Irkutsk, but it was fell
that, as the main object was to pro
mote propaganda, this end would be
best served by holding it here.

MOSCOW. Jan. 23.-Bolshevik dele
gates to the Genoa conference will
present reparation claims there
against various European powers and
the United States. If these claims are
made in terms of Bolshevik rubles.
new names for large amounts may be
necessary, for the familiar terms of
the decimal system will not cover the
staggering sums claimed by this coun-
try, which issues single bills for one
hundred million rubles, and discusses
deficits of trillions of rubles as mere
bagatelles.

Bakowsky and scores of other Com

Genoa and juggle figures with the
same Indifference that a professional
strong man shows while toting weights
about a stage.
The Versailles conference mustered
no such brigades of experts as the
Moscow government called into SER
vice months ago and has been training
for Communist attack upon capital

ical and economic experts has been

of by the western world.

bill introduced some time ago by one
of the members of the delegation,
Representative A. J. Hickey, for the
creation of two federal judicial dis

Although Indiana ranks tenth among

one federal judicial district. For more
than a quarter of a century all federal
court business in the state has been

Under existing law provision is
made for conducting terms of the fed

today by the japanese delegation at a

hearing his statement on Siberia, the
committee proceeded with the ques-
ton of the status of existing commit

CAN'T SUBORDINATE

WOOD Tells NATIVES
(By Associated Press)

MANILA, Jan. %. - The American
and Filipino flags must be accorded
the same respect but any attempt to
subordinate the American flag to any
other borders on treason. Gov. Gen.
Wood today wrote to number of sui
tans. datus and constabulary officers
in Sulu and Mindanac. The COVER
nor's letter was occasioned by infor-
nation from constabulary officers in
those provinces that some Moros have
manifested opposition to the use and
display of the Filipinos flag. Cover
nor Wood wrote:
"The United States flag represents
the sovereign authority in the Philip
pines and any attempt to subordinate
it to any other borders closely or
treason. The Filipino flag represents
Christian Filipinos, Mohammedan Fill
pinos and Pagan Filipinos equally and
impartially and must be honored ac
cordingly.
America Supreme
Concerning the relative value o.
the American and Filipinos | feel SURE
you have untruthfully interpreted
words by your government officials
because they knew very well the posi-
tion of the two flags. The American
flag represents the supreme govern
ment authority and the nation ulti
mately responsible without and within
the Philippines for whatever takes
place concerning the Philippines.
''Mohammedans are a part of th'
Philippine people the same as Chris
tians and pagans. The Filipino tia'
! is not an emblem of a religion nor ;
