personal contact may possibly remove
much of the animosity that has been
displayed in the public sessions, has
created a general feeling in confer
ence circles that compromise may be
arranged on the Russian problem
which will afford satisfactory work
! ing basis for the reconstruction of
Russia.
The keynote of the allied position
at the conference today was that Rus
sia first must satisfy past pledges be-
fore obtaining any concessions for
the future. In other words, Russia
must recognize the debts of the car
ist government before Soviet claims
against the allies can be entertained.
Tomorrow morning the experts of
the four inviting powers who were
present at today's meeting again will
gather at Mr.. Lloyd Georges villa

,, will be joined by the principal dele
gates of the five countries. Germany
has not been asked to attend these
private conferences, as she was not a
party to the making Of the London
experts report. The Strengthening
The Strengthening out of the moot
points of the report will be effected
at informal meetings before Germany
is called in. 1t had been expected
that Russia would make her reply to
the report of the experts tomorrow,
but this reply now has been post
poned indefinitely.
The Russians have caused a state
ment to be circulated through M. Ra-
kovsky. the Ukrainian premier, and
other delegates, to the effect that
Russia already has enacted laws and
made court reforms and regulations
affecting foreigners residing in Rus
sia, which meet many of the criticisms
of the London experts report regard
ing the Soviet government and that
they also have expressed willingness
to acknowledge prewar debus and sig
nifed their purpose to erase their
claims against the allies arising from
operations of the Wrangel, Denekine
and Yudenitch armies against the So
Wet regime if the allied war claims
against Russia are wiped out.

Youth, beauty, social position and
love-these were not sufficient to
hold the affection of her husband,
BELLAMY DRUCE, a man cursed
with an appetite for cheap fiirta-
tons and expensive liquor. The
decision to leave him came when
his wife,
LUCINDA, after tolerating nurner-
Gus escapades and receiving his
promise to reform, discovered
him intoxicated and dancing with
a woman of ill-repute in a Broad
way cabaret
On the eve of her departure, Luz
cinda renews a friendship with
FANNY LONTAINE, and learns
that her husband,
HARRY LONTAINE, is thinking of
forming motion picture com
pany in California. With them,
she visits the New York studios
OF Alma Daley, motion picture
queen, and takes keen interest in
screen life. Then comes her break
with Beliamy and her sudden Il.
parture for Chicago.
Bel follows her and tries to stop
a train for Reno.

Governor Miller for the Public.

Governor MILLER does not see any
difference between an organized
group of employers arrogating to
themselves the license and power to
deprive the public of its liberties and
rights and an organized group of em-
ployees arrogating to themselves the
license and power to deprive the pub
lie of its liberties and rights. Neither
do the American people see any diff
ference between the two.
Governor MILLER declares that
American Government. Federal and
State, must protect the public in it's
liberties and rights against the ag-
gressions Of any individual or group
that attempts to put the public at the
mercy Of organized abuse. And the
American people stand with Governor
MILLER on that plain declaration Of
American fundamentals.
II Governor MILLER and the voters
of New York who want to preserve
their liberties and rights cannot win
on that issue to keep for the public
what belongs to the public, what al
ways, since this nation was set up,
has belonged to the public, and what
always ought to belong to the public,
then on what issue can they win?
