tions Of the recently announced schedule

said.
The cut in rates made under the last
order OF commission is said to be re-
garded as insufficient in the matter of
residence lighting and the optional light
and power users class. The commission
fixed rates which were about Z per cent

MOSCOW, May 13 (By The Assoe;-
ated Press) ).-The Soviet government S
new land policy, reiterating the prin-
ciple CT state ownership of ell land,
but providing life tenure for the peas
ants working it, was presented to the

of the property, however, if they leave
it voluntarily and fail to cultivate it
for three consecutive years; If they try
to sell or pawn their holdings; Il they

Chile and Peru Agree
On Conference Policy
Plans Outlined for Discussion
Ut Treaty Of Ancon at the
Washin9f0u Meeting

WASHINGTON, May Is fBy The As
sociated Press) THE delegations Of
Chile and Peru ompieted at series
Of consultations to-day their prelini-
nary plans Of procedure for the con-
ference on questions arising from the
Treaty Of Ancon
Ar a result Of their discussions,
each delegation was understood TO be
prepared TO go into the conference
Monday with a we'll considered outline
Of its policy.
Although the conference opens for
mally on Monday, the real give and
take of diplomacy Is not expected to
get under way until late In the week.
ln some we'll informed diplomatic
circles it has been expected that Chile
would give the conferences It's first
concrete basis Of negotiation by pro
posing that as a preliminary premise
the treaty Of Ancon be acce pied as
valid despite the unful7illed article
which provided for piebiscite to de-
eide the sovereignty Of Tacna-Arica
For one thing, full recognition Of
the validity Of the treaty would dis
pose at once of the question Of Tara
paca, since the treaty provision grant
ing that province to Chile was uncon-
ditional. II woud dispose quickly Of
the plea Of delegation Of native
Tarapacans who are in the United
States to present memorial holding

Returns From Venezuela
After 10 Years i'm Jail
Fernandez Will Present Com.
plaint Against ComezC Govern
ment 10 State Department

Gerardo Fernandez. an American
citizen. who went to Venezuela in 1908
to engage in the automobile business
and was imprisoned by the Gomez gov
ernn1ent on charges of plotting to
overthrow it, arrived here yesterday
on the steamship Algonquin, of the
Clyde Line, from Caribbean and West
Indian ports. 49,
Fernandez repeated the narrative OF
his incarceration that was brought
here eeveral months ago by friends
who had met him in Caracas after his
liberation. He said yesterday that for
no cause whatever the adherents of
Gomez arrested him, and without trial
put him into San Carlos prison, out
side Caracas, where he was held for
ten years. Fernandez said the custom
ary form. of incarceration was to jail
a man under a fictitious name, and in
this way the government officials we're
able to keep the identity Of the prison
er hidden and Offset measures that
might be. taken for his release. He
said he knew Of one instance where &
fellow psisoner, an American, had both
hands chopped off while in Jail.
Fernandez said he had an abundance
Of documentary evidence against the
Gomez government and would present
it to the State Department next week

Taxation Scheme Wrong.
Declares Otto III. Kahn
Progressive Income Tax Prin.
ciple Applied With 'Vindictive
unreasOn,' He Saws

Before embarking for Europe yes
terday Otto II. Kahn told meeting of
the Committee of American Business
Men at the Midday Club that, even
with strict governmental economy, tho
annual expenditures Of the Federal
government, now amounting to about
$4,000, 100000, probably could not be
reduced materially below that figure,
although the annual expenditures prior
to the war were about $1.00O,000,0 1000.
THAT is u vast increase" said Mr.
Kahn, ''pet the burden is not really an
excessively heavy one in proportion to
the nations wealth and resources, and
could be borne with relative ease if it
were properly adjusted. AS a matter
of fact, it is grossly maladjusted. Fo,
many years prior to the war America
prospered under scheme Of taxation
which sat so lightly on every one that
the subject Of taxation was one Of but
slight general concern.
"lf it has now become one of our
major problems the reason is to be
found far less in the increased reve-
nue requirements arising out Of the
war than in the stubborn adherence to
faulty system and ill-judged methods
of taxation"
The progressive income tax principle
has been applied with "vindictiye .un-
reason" he added, and cas- the rate of
surtaxes is lowered the .aggreg gate
amount Of income subjecting itself to
taxation will be largely increased"

BOlsheriki Aduise P0pe
To Study Souiet Lu,cs
Plea for Religious Freedom Is
Said to !sho,c "Insuhicienf
kno,cledge"; Decree Is Cited

GENOA, May IS (By The Associated
Press).-~The Russian delegation to the
Economic Conference to-day issued a
communique concerning the recent
papal memorandum, saying the ques-
tions mentioned in the pope's document
showed "an insufficient knowledge Of
Soviet legislation, as those questions
already have been settled with perfect
clearncss by the decree of january %,
1918, on the separation Of Church and
State
The communique quotes articles Of
that decree under the provisions Of
which any obstacle to liberty of wor-
ship is prohibited, and also showing
that no privilege can be granted to any
citizen because Of the religion he pro-
Yesses.
Quoting further from the decree, the
Soviet communique says:
ANY citizen can profess any religion
he chooses, or can profess none, Pro
other, or protesting no religion, gives
rise to no judicial distinction. Free
dom Of worship is guaranteed to all
unless they disturb public order or
cause attacks against the rights of cit-
zens.
"There is complete separation be-
tween the Church and the schools. Re
ligious teaching is prohibited in gov.
erninent schools. but it can be impaired
privately. All properties belonging to
religious communities are nationalized
but the use Of churches and the fur
nishings necessary 70 worship are given
free by the local authorities to the
members Of each church"

Official Washington Is
Silent on French Plea
Careful Consideration To Be
Cirem to Proposal: Presi-
dent May Consult Senate

From The Trihune's Washington Bureas
WASHINGTON. May l3-While off,
Gals tonight withheld comment on the
report from Genoa that the French
delegation had appealed to American
Ambassador Child to urge the United
States to participate in the proposed
mixed commission to investigate the
Russian situation. it was indicated that
this government would give careful
consideration to such a proposal when
.t had been formally presented.
Ever since ths opening Of the Genoa
conference President Harding has held
out great hope upon some advance
step being taken by the European gov
srnments toward permanent rehabili-
',ation. While the United States is
5ecoming officially connected with the
,.enoa conference, the desire of the
administration that some solution of
The perplexing Russian problem be
reached may influence the President to
consent to 4 representative Of this
government being ii member Of the
proposed commission.
1t must be stipulated, however. that
this country would not be bound by the
decisions OF the commission merely be-
cause OF an American member particle
pdtlnS, anu Ii}S IEElIcr reservation is
made that any solution could not bind
Ibis government unless the rights OF
Americans in Russia would be respect
ed 1t is thought also that the Presi-
dent would seek the consent Of the
Senate before any response is made
should the invitation of the French
government materialize.
The President is understood to be-
iieve that there is a widespread senti-
snent in this country that fsvors as
sisting the Russian nation again to
become officially recognized by the
nations of the world. The disposition
OF the Administration is to do every
thing possible consistent with the ira
ditional policy Of the United States to
assist the war-ridden nations to be-
come re-established. Particularly was
this reflected in the readiness Of
Congress to appropriate funds with
which the American Relief Commission
hss poured into Russia food supplies

Picking to Suppress
Chang's Manchurian
Regime by Force
Warming Follows Report De.
feated Leader Had Set
Up Independent Govern.
ment; Mines Impcriled

PEK1NG, May 10 (By The Associated
Press) ).-Officials of the Peking gov
ernment to-day announced that il Gen
cral Chang Tso-lin should attempt to
establish the independence Of Man
churia, as has been reported, he would
be suppressed by force. The announce
ment was made in connection with n
widespread report that the defeated
Manchurian leader already had pro-
claimed the independence Of Manchuria
and Mongolia.
Government officials said this after
noon they had not received official con-
firmation Of this report, although the
British administration of the Kaiping
mines had received " telegram pur-
ported to be signed by General Chang
asserting that he alone was responsible
for affairs in Manchuria and Mongolia,
but that he would respect existing
treaties and concessions.
The telegram, supposedly sent by
General Chang, has reference to the
Luanchow and Kaiping, where the
troops Of the Manchuria general and Of
General Wa Pxi-fu, who defeated the
Manchurians near Peking last week, are
threatening renewed hostilitics. The
message, dated Friday, said independ-
ence had not yet been declared but
that conditions might change 1t added
that the assemblies of three Man
churian provinces and other organiza-
tions had sent protest to President
Hsu Shih Chang against the govern
ments order desposing General Chang.
1t was said the men appointed to sue
ceed his officials had declined to serve,
General Chang is reported to be re-
cruiting fresh army, and is said to be
sending reinforcements to Luanchow
TIENTS1N, May Is (By The Associ-
ated Press)-An independent govern
ment has been set up by General Chang
Tso-lin, defeated military governor of
Mukden. A declaration Of independence
issued from his headquarters at Luan-.
chow says that, having been divestcd
by the President of authority in Man
churia, Mongolia and Jehol, he hence
forth repudiates all instructions from
the President and all treaties negotiat-
ed by him.
The declaration sets forth that Chang
friendly powers in the name of the re-
gions enumerated, and will assume re-
sponsibility for the protection of for
eign lives and property there. Foreign
diplomats must communicate with him
at Luanchow.
News from the Kaiping mining area
is increasingly grave. The American
military forces which are in charge of
the railway in that section are consid-
ering the advisability of withdrawing
all foreigners. If this step is taken it
will probably result in incalculable
damage to the mining property.
Jehol, mentioned in Chang Tso-lin's
proclamation. is city Is miles north
east Of Peking, in Chihli Province. II
is also known by the name Chengtehfu
and is the site Of magnificent palace,
which was the fsvoritc residence of the
Emperor Kien-lang.
