GENOA FARLEY DOOMED
 TO FAILURE FROM START

Washington, April 20.-Ths high ly advertised economic conference of thirty-oue nations which is in ses- sion in Genoa is foredoOmed 10 fail ure, according to the well-nigh unan- imous opinion held by officials of the American government who are fam iliar with the events leading up to the barley.
 It was largely for this reason that the United States declined to par ticipate. turning down the Italian invitation in such terms as to leave no doubt about what America thinks of the conference.
 "I regret to inform Your Excel lency," wrote Secretary of State Hughes. that 1t has been found i'm possible to escape the conclusion that the proposed conference is not primarily an economic conference, as questions appear tt have been ex- cluded from consideration without the satisfactory determination Of which the chief ca1ses of economic disturbance must continue to oper- ate. but is rather a conference Of a political character in which the gov erument of the United States could not helpfully participate"
 Seldom has a proposal of one friendly government been turned down by another in such blunt language. Not content with merely sending polite regrets, the United States went to the length Of calling world attention to the emptiness of the project, and, by inference at least, stated that the whole under, taking was masquerading under false cOlors by pretending to be something it was not.

WHITE PASS ANNOUNCES
 RATR FOR YUKON FREIGHT

In a wire received today from H- Wheeler, general manager Of the White Pass Route, he announces that this seasons rate from Seattle, via St. Michael, to Panama, will be S44 per ton, base rate.
 This rate is made possible, it is explained, by the fact that boats will go both ways loaded with ore shipments going down from Mayo, and with freight coming up,
 On account of the different ways ot classifying freight as shipped by the river to Panama, as against the rail haul to Nenana, this rate will make an average of about $5 per ton less on all shipments made to Ne mana. Some commodities, by car load will be less to Nenana by rail than by water to Panama, but prac- tically all less-than-carload lots will be much less to Panama than the same shipments to Nenana by rail. -Exchange.

RADIOPHONE INVITATIONS

Washington. April 2S.-The grow Ing popularity and use of the radio phone has brought added troubles Co the White House. The President has been literally deluged with re- quests from all parts Of the country and all kinds of organizations to de- liver to them speeches or messages by radiophone. He has been be- seeched to do practically everything from opening churcn bazzars to ad- dressing a few words to national conventions Of various kinds, The President. however. has decided to play no Tayoritism by refusing to start any such practice. For that reason all such invitations are doomed in advance to refusal at the White House.

GOVERNOR GENERAL OF

The governor general of Canada, Lord Blng of we'll known world war fame, will visit the Yukon this sum mer with a party. The governor general will reach Skagway about August first and return about Aug ust IT.
 The famous general has a tender place in his heart for the Yukon, as It was from this section that some of the splendid troops which he com mRnded in the early part Of the war made such e splendid record. It was during the early part Of the war that Lord Bing commanded the Can sdian forces and during that time the Canadian forces made Germany sit up and take notice The Eener- al was very proud Of his troops and when later he was made divisional commander of one of the British armies he did not lose his love for the boys who made such heroic stands and did such good work for the Empire under his command Un- doubtedly the Yukon will give him a reception, fitting not only to his position as governor general of Can ada. but also as the best loved com mander of the great war.
