HAVING made their losing fight
against the Pacific fOurpower
pact, the obstreperous minority in the
senate ceased from troubling last
week and tell into llne--all but Sen
ator France Of Maryland The treaty
on limitation OF navics, chief work
OF the Washington conference, after
an inconseQucntial debate, was rati-
fed on Wednesday by a vote Of "A to

negative vote by contending that the
United States should continue build

plained that he favored the treaty
because 1t was a step toward the goal
at which he had been aiming for many
years, namely, complete disarmament,
and that he believed this agreement
was as much as the international con.
ference was able to accomplish. John
son Of California did not disguise his
dislike for the pact, especially its Pa
C1c forlncatlOns clause, but he voted
for ratification on the assurance of
the navy general board that the United
States would not give up anything TINT
is strateglcally vital King Of Utah,
though accepting the treaty, thought
1t would have small effect In reduc-
Ing naval expenditures, predicting that
huge sums now would be spent on
aircraft and submarines.
Immediately after the vote Of ratlh-
cation the senate took up the treaty
prohibiting the use Of poison gas and
restricting the use OF submarines In
warfare ana accepted 1t unanimously.
Before casting his vote Senator WadS-
worth of New York, chairman of the
military affairs committee, expressed
the opinion that IN the next war this
treaty would not be worth the paper
II was written on.
"For my own part" said Senator
Wadsworth, 81 shall be very much dis
couruged II the United States army
should stop trying to perfect gas
masks because OF this treaty We
don't dare stop. And the only way
we can perfect gas masks Is to test
them with the Kind Of gases which we
may have TO combat We might as
well look the facts IN the face"
Before the week closed, the remain
Ing treaties, the ninepower pact re-
latIng to China and the one dealing
with the Chinese tariff, were put
through, and thus the senate cOmplet-
ed Its part In making the great
Washington conference success.
Naturally and with reason, the Dem
ocrats claim share I'm this accom-

state law which requires that no coal
digger may be employed unless he can

NJ IKOLAI LENIN, premier Of soviet
' Russia, is again dead, according
to reports, but, as on previous occa-
slons, 1t Is believed that the rumor Is
greatly exaggerated" Probably 1t Is
true that he Is quite i'll, and it is not
likely that he will be able to attend
the Genoa conference. However, the
soviet delegates to that confab are
luxuriously on their way to Italy by
way Of Riga and Berlin, rejoicing in
the fact that at last their government
is to have a measure of recognition
from the capitaliStic and bourgeois
governments they hate so intensely.
They are hopeful of obtaining finan-
cial and commercial assistance for the
task Of definitely establishing the
communist regime in Russia, but Lenin
recently declared communism there
had reached the limit Of yielding to
capitalism and was now in a position
again to advance. But he told the
communists they must cease their
dreaming and get to work.

 Tonight the troops. 55 strong. and commanded by Maj. Cooper R.

Representatives of the employing operators and officials of the miners union who will resume tomorrow the conference adjourned last week. saw Secretary of Labor Davis during the day. but 1t was evident after the meeting that no new proposals were being advanced. The same stumbling block to settlement-the union de- msnd for a national or semi-national wage negotiation with employers and the operators demand for separate district contract discussions--bulked as largely as before.
 It appeared probable tonight that the session would convene, formally set forth its differences and await the Presidents further word. All Participants were disposed to with hold discussion for the event. There was no hint as to whether a further proposal from government sources would be forthcoming. but the ma jority opinion was that final admin- tstration action might be delayed several days. and that the conference would be prolonged.
