To the People of Stevens County.

My attention has been called to
the fact that a story has been cir
culated throughout the County to the
effect that do not like Stanley Ryan
and for that reason induced Henry
Gaffney to file for Sheriff and that
I paid his filing fees.
There is absolutely no truth in
this story. never advised with Hen
ry regarding his filing, nor he with
me and I never gave him one cent
toward his filing or campaign ex-
penses.
My purpose in publishing this
statement is to advise the people of
this county that there is absolutely
no truth in the above story and also
to undo the injustice that may have
been done Henry Gaffney through
the circulation of this story.
My best wishes are with my
brother Henry, but 1 am not oppos-
ing any other candidate and only ask
all fair minded people of this County
to resent this attempt to draw me in
| to this Campaign.
Yours very truly,
Jos. J. Gaffney.

General satisfaction was expressed
at the Capitol to-day over the person

mission nominated by President Har-
ding, consisting of Secretary Mellon, Sec
retary Hughes. Secretary Hoover. SEN
ator Reed Smoot Cutah) and Represen-
tative Theodore E. Burton (Ohio).
While the nominations were not con-
firmed, as the Senate did not hold an
executive session. the indications are
that no fight will be made in the Sem
ate upon any Of the commissioners and
the confirmation of the whole board Is
assured in day or two.
Under the resolution creating the
commission Secretary Mellon will act
as chairman of the board and upon him
will devolve much OF the work of fund
ing the S11, 900, 100000 lent to the allied
nations by this Government during the
war.
1t is provided in the measure creating
the funding commission that the board
shall serve for three years without pay
and that the amounts due from the for
eign governments must be paid within
twenty-five years. and the rate of in
terest on the debt must not be less than
4H per cent. Another important pro-
vision is that the bonds from one ma
tion cannot be substituted for those of
another.
Upon confirmation OF the nominees
by the Senate it Is expected the foreign
debtor nations will be informed thai
this country is prepared to go ahead
with negotiations for funding the wal
debts. Negotiations will begin first with
Great Britain looking to the funding OF
IS. 600. 10000 owed by that nation to the
United States, including the Interest
which has accumulated in the last three
years. AS soon as the British debt il

President Harding says the prelimi

The work OF the commission will bt

of the Government and members OF
Congress. as the hope is indulged thai
much of the deferred interest on the

Congress would have to give its
consent to any adjustments or under
standings by which the United States
is to be bound in any way to maintain
the insular rights of Japan or Great
Britain in the Pacific, under the four
Power treaty and there would be no
obligation. either legal or moral, on
the part of Congress 10 give such con-
sent. according to a reservation to
the compact tentatively agreed upon
to-day by the Senate Foreign Rela-
tions Committee. 1t was proposed by
Senator Brandegee Rep., Conn. }.
The Brandegee reservation is as fol-
lows:
The Senate advises and consents
subject to the following reservation
which is to be made a part of the n
strument of ratification. TO wit: The
United States understands that ii as
sumed 70 obligation either legal or
moral to maintain the rights in re-
lation to the insular possessions or
insular domihions of any Of the high
contracting parties. and that the con-,
sent of the Congress OF the United
States shall be necessary to adjust
ments or understandings under Ar 3
ticles !. and H.. by which the United
States is to be bound in any way and
that there Is no obligation either
legal or moral 10 give such consent
Considerable discussion followed tie
submission of the Brendegee reservation
som, members of the committee felt thar
its provisions were too drastic Senator
Pomerene said:
"It means that if there Is any posi-
bility of war or anything Of that kind,
or il there is any possibility of expense
or anything of that kind, the final de-
Cision will be up to Congress"
Senator Pomerene added he did not
think his, substitute of the Brandegee
reservation was necessary. However,
in view of the prob billy of the Bran
degee reservation being reported out, he
was anxious to soften its language. He
agreed with the Presidents interpreta-
ton of the four Power treaty and EN-
phasized that he stood now where lie
stood on the League Of Nations cove
nant.
Senator Lodge (Mass) and otEer lead
ing members of the committee registered
strong opposition to the reservation
However. when it appeared that the ir-
reconcilables and several Democrats in
Cicated they would join forces on the
issue and force through the reservation
Senator Lodge indicated he would ac-
ceDt the reservation on the theory thai
while IL is unnecessary 1t is not hurtfIl.
Both the President and Senator Lodge
have said they did not consider such a
reservation as proposed by Senator
Erandegee as necessary. However, the
willingness of Senator Lodge to accept
the reservation was construed at the
Capitol as an indication that the Adj
Ininstration VIII not oppose reservations

sists upon them.

ministration cannot muster the two
thirds vote necessary for ratification or
any of the seven treaties negotiated at
the armament conference. The swing of
Senator Hitchcock (Neb) and other
Democratic leaders in support of res
ervations advocated by Republican ir-
reconcilables probably was an important
factor in influencing the committee to
look with favor upon the Brandegee
reservation.
No action was taken by the committee
on either the Brandegee reservation or
the Pomerene substitute. However. lead
ing members of the committee indicated
that the Brandegee reservation would
be accepted and no other reservations
would be made to the four Power
treaty. Senator Wadsworth On. Y). a
member of the committee, said he IA
vored the Brandegee reservation.
'"rhe Pacific pact" he declared, may
run long after we are all dead. Ger
tainly we should not commit ourselves
unreservedly to future action on a treaty
that may compel US to meet unforeseen
world conditions. We should certainly
not permit the American people to be
bound by any future agreements or de-
cisions unless Congress shall have first
decided upon the wisdom of our country
being bound by those agreements OF
decisions"
1t was reiterated at che White House
that the President did not believe there
were any jolsers in The Yap treaty or In
any of the others negotiated by the
armament conference. The President
does not believe there has been any sur
render of American rights in zap by the
new treaty as charged by Senator John
son. (Cal).
At the White House it was said the
President was confident no important
reservations would be made to any o.
the treaties. He based his confidence or
reports recently made by Senator Lodge
who told the President that all of the
treaties would be ratified by comfort

The eyes of western Europe are be-
coming more than ever fixed on Rus
sia as the date for the Genoa confer
ence approaches, even if there is TO be
postponement of few weeks. 1t is
now seen clearly that Russia is the
key factor in the conference and in
the whole European situation. having
recently quite overshadowed the part
which Germany may play there.
To-day's report from Rome that NJ.
Varowski, official Soviet representa-
tive there, had just returned from
Moscow with an economic project for
the conference, is regarded as having
deep significance in indicating that
the Soviets intend to lay before the
of their own under which the recon-

still be under complete control of the
Soviets yet based on the help ex-
pected from the Western nations.
