mission, the personnel of which will
be appointed by the chief Justice of

The French draft demands, in case
private property cannot be restored,
that Russia shall pay indemnities.
These irdemnities would be provided
for by an issue OF new Russian per-

be president, to be designated by the
chief justice of the supreme court of

puted points.
Today's discussion of the two
drafts brought forth duel of words

Great Britain, and Louis Barthou
chief of the French delegation, which
the auditors described as both witty
and satirical. Signor Schanzer, Italy,
as usual, took a leading role IN the
! discussion, urging Cancellation be
tween the French and British atti-
tudes.
Lloyd George characterized the
French project as elegant in form
but defective in important features
He objected to Frances picture of
Russian dis-organization, saying il
would displease the Russian delega-
ton. Moreover, he added, Frances
draft spoke overmuch of agriculture
and commerce, while it was superb
cial- on the momentous question OF
credits.
Every country, Lloyd George insist

disposed to do for Russia. He urged
the formation of a consortium with
precise officers from each nation

to da, not necessarily in actual money
: but in general guarantees and regard

effort to recover his position in par
lament are regarded as forming one
of the greatest tragedies in French
public life in recent years. The per-
sonal policy of Deschanel in his po-
litical career, before he came to the
presidency, was so to manage his
course as not to undertake positive
responsibilities which would bring
opposition to him from either of the
important political groups. He pre-
ferred to arrive at his aims by con-
Citation or concession; by combin-
ing adverse views under the single
formula; and by the compelling at
Effectiveness of his personal qualities
ne avoided taking political response
bilities.
This he could not do on becoming
president. He then conceived it to
be his duty not to sign a decree or
other document without informing
himself fully as to its meaning. In
consequence, he toiled away at night,
frequently until the morning hours.
His wife and friends eXpostuiated
with him, but he was persistent.
Then Deschanel began to believe
he was being spied upon, and con-
spired against. He suspected not on
" his political rivals, but mis- friends.
Then came his spectacular fall from
the window of the presidential train;
his night walk along the railroad
tracks in his pajamas, and his extra
ordinary conversations with railway
employees he encountered, which were
received by the French public with
curious mixture Of sympathy and de-
riSion.
After this, NJ. Deschanel went into
retirement at Ramboulet, where he
had two misadventures, which were
regarded by many persons as at
tempts at suicide. Alexandra Miller
and, then premier, after a consulta-
ton with persons of Importance in
both houses of parliament, and with
Nine. Deschanel, urged that Descha-
mel resign. This he did with great re
luctance. Then he lived in seclusion
for several months.
Suddenly it was announced that
Deschanel intended to become a can

LAST SURVIVOR
Of EXPEDITION
EAGER FOR PACT
Survivor of Powell Party Is
Anxious to See J States
Agree as to Colorado

SALT LAKE CITY, Apr. 20 Last
survivor of the Powell expeditions
through the Colorado River Canyons,
Francis NJ. Bishop of Salt Lake, Isl
eager to see the seven basin states
form a compact for unified use of the
stream which he helped map in 1870.
Such proposal is now before the
Colorado River Commission, headed by
Herbert Hoover, secretary of com
merce. looking toward speedy develop
ment of agriculture and power.
When Major j. w. Powell OF the IT,.
s. Geological Survey and his party
braved the wild river in small boats,
il was thought impossible. Tradition
had it run underground for miles and
the Indian peopled it with grisy phan-
toms.
These tales" said Bishop in re-
counting his adventures, cost the life
of three men in the first party and ap-
palled even the intrepid Powell.
THE 1869 party of nine men had
reached the great south bend of the
Grand Canyon where the stream APP
parently disappeared into the chasm
wal. Powell held parley, and after
calling for volunteers determined to
go ahead.
Three Refused
The Harland brothers and William
Bell. trappers, refused the risk. There
were hard words, taunts of cowardice
and threatened gun play. Only men
tested by hard adventure can appre-
ciate the tension of the occasion.
THE boats, provisions and instru-
ments were divided and signals ar
ranged in case of survival Powell and
his hardies showed off, stright for des-
truetion, it seemed, but the rapids
veered sharp from the cliff as he had
surmised, so that a few moments
brought them to smoothe water again
a mile below.
Signals were fired for days. and at
no avail. Powell continued on to the
no avail. Powell continued on to the
mouth of the Virgin, and thence to
Washington overland.
Months alter he learned that the
trio had reached a Shevwitz Indian
village where they told of having run
the Colorado in river poines.' A rene
gade Colorado buck caused their death
in ambuscade when he persuaded the
Shcvwitz that no living creature could
negotiate the rapids and that the
whites had come to steal their sQuaws.
Thus unfounded tradition took its
toll.
And, similarly, unsrounded fears of
water shortage and state jealousies
may take their economic toll in de-
velopment restrictions if folks of the
basin don't get together in an equita-
BILE Colorado compact"
Bishop, 20, is connected with the jul
Yenile court of Salt Lake He as
cribes his remarkable physical and
mental vigor to untrammeled life in
the open, and would like once more to
dare the Colorado in a small boat.
