There we have a fine people, generous

severe restrictions. Now, in order to
satisfy its degrading passion for alcohol.

Yesterdays renewal of the contro-
versy over the holding of alleged Demo-

nization, subsidized to-day with the send
ing by Representative Begg (Ohio) of
letter to Under-Secretary of the
Treasury Gilbert denying responsibility
fol the published list OK Democrats
in the Treasury Department.
President Harding does not want to
toke any step or any action in the
matter. 1t was stated in a high Off
cial quarter to-day that the President
prefers to leave the conduct of the
Treasury entirely to Secretary Mellon.
i'll whom he has the highest confidence.
Representative Begg in his letter and
a statement to-day said there was no
connection between the published list
and the petition from 1853 Republican
members of Congress filed with the
President by him yesterday The petit
tion. it was stated. asked the President
to support Assistant Secretary of the
Treasury Dover in reorganization ef-
fcrts. The President however, IL seems
is standing by Secretary Mellon and
Secretary Mellon is supporting Commits
sioner Blair.
Authorship of the published lists is OBJ
scure. Denials generally have been
made of responsibility. Representative
Begg stated that he had not prepared
or circulated the list. but that 1t had
come anonymously to him.
In his letter to Mr.. Gilbert Repre-
sentative 'Begg asked permission to adj
wise the Under Secretary that he knew
nothing about the names printed in the
list, that he was not the author of it, that
it was placed on his desk by some per-
son unknown and that he (Begg) did
not know who compiled or circulated it.
The Representative took this return shot
at Mr.. Gilbert:
Your own statement that you were
Assistant Secretary of the Treasury un-
der McAdoo and Wilson clearly CLASH
fies you in my judgment and increases
my confidence in the list"
Mr.. Begg then added that there was
a connection between the petition signed
by members of Congress and presented
to the President and the list to which
Mr.. Gilbert referred.
No further official statement was
forthcoming from the Treasury to-day.
Officials declared the matter would rest
on Secretary Melons statement and no
further attention would be given it.
Assistant Secretary Dover, who Is the

Concrete proposals for procedure by
the Claims Commission for adjudication
of all American claims against Germany
and German claims against the United
States. and for legislation for the return
of German funds held by the Alien Prop
erty Custodian. were discussed in con-
ference at the White House to-day, at
tended by the President. Secretary of
State Hughes. Attorney-General Daugh-
erty and Col. Thomas w. Miller, Alien
Property Custodian.
1t was decided to speed the passage of
legislation for the disposition of the
$357,435. $40 in former enemy property
now held by the Property Custodian. No
official statement was made as to the
nature of the recommendations. 1t is
known. however that there is an in
clination to quit holding minor sums
that belonged to persons in moderate
circumstances, either as security for or
in payment of indemnity or other claims
that really are the obligations of the
German Government or the German peo-
pie. This country should not, 1t has
heen argued, make those who had faith
in the United States in bringing their
funds here, either pay or secure these
claims
Disposition OF the seized enemy prop
erty is up to Congress. Nothing can be
done toward it's disposition until Con-
gress gives directions An early recom-
mendation from the Administration,
however. Is likely.

business interests in Germany do not
want their property returned at present.

The German Governments refusal to
pay the Ukrainians debt of 400, 900, 900
gold marks for grain which the German
Government took from the Ukraine in
the last years Of the war has resulted
in the failure of the separate negotia-
tions which Maxim Litvineff then Chris
tian Rakovsky, Soviet President of the
Ukraine, began in Berlin fortnight
ago.
Rakovslxy told THE NEW YORK HERALD
correspondent that he expected an ex-
tension of the Rapallo Russo-German
treaty to follow Immediately, but the
German Government wanted to add the
grain debt to the other war claims which
have been Cancelled. The Ukrainians.
however, asserted that this transaction
had no relation to the war and de-
manded payment of the 400, ,000, 900
marks in machinery and goods.
The German Government then argued
that the existence of the Petlura, Skoro-
padsky and other pretending Ukrainian
Governments makes the Soviet Ukrain-
ian Government a dubious title. Rakov-
sky then broke off the negotiations.
The Russians do not deplore this
break, seeing advantages in being able
to emphasize at the Hague conference
that the Ukraine and Georgia are not
hand-in-hand with the Germans and
stand ready to conclude treaties with
other Powers Independently of Soviet
Russia and Germany.
The Ukraine will not resume negotia-
tions with Germany until after the
Hague conference. The Germans on the
other hand see In the Ukraine the most
adaptable field for their initiative, par
ticularly in manganese and coal mines,
sugar refining and scientific farming.
Rakovsky on the eve of his departure
from Berlin said that the Ukraine's g
need of foreign enterprise Is influenc-
ing the Government to go to the farthest
limit in according freedom of trade" "
Rakovsky, however. would not admit
that this obliges recognition OF previous
land titles and private property at this
