BOARD PASSES
BUSQUESTION
Will Await Solicitors Opin-
ion as to Question of
Jurisdiction
STREET DEPARTMENT
WON'T BE HASTY

Following a statement by ]. c.
Foote, chairman of the board, that
he had asked Mayor Harvey TO have
city Solicitor Satterthwaite give an
opinion as to whether the Board Of
Public Utility Commission has juris-
diction over the bus lines in this city,
the board decided to officially ask
for the opinion. and with the excep-
tion OF passing the resolution took
no further action in the matter.
The Board Of Public Utility Com
mission having postponed further
action now leaves the matter up TO
the Street and Sewer Department for
action. but in view Of the request
Of City Council. on Thursday night
that the Street and Sewer Depart
ment tell City Council what its inten-
tions are regarding rules for the reg
ulation of bus lines in the city, it is
not thought the Street and Sewer
Department will act on the matter
for a week or ten days.
There was little discussion on the
subject. however. although Walter
Brinton expressed the opinion that
buses could properly be called pub
lie utilities and he thought the
board had jurisdiction over them.

Want Commissfm's idea.
(By Fhe Associated Press. }

Paris, April 1s.-The reparations
commission is" to ask to consider
whether the Russo German treaty.
signed at Rapallo on Sunday, violates
the treaty of Versailles, in respect to
the German owned property in Russia.
This property under the Versailles
pact is pledged to the commission for
payment of reparations.
The French government will await
the action of the commission before
taking up the question officially with
the allies. 1t is held. however. in Of
ficial circles here that there is a dis
tnct violation Of the Versailles treaty
and it is declared that whatever ac-
tion the Genoa conference may take,
the allied powers cannot tolerate the
pact.
The recourse Of the allies against
the pact is. the same as that against
other violations of the peace treaty
and the present case is regarded only
as adding one moro to the other
causes OF action on the German Ques-
tion which the allies will take up i'm
mediately after the Genoa conference.
1t was announced this afternoon
that Premier Poincare had requested
Louis Dubois. French member Of the
reparation commission, to place Off
cially before the commission the oues-
ton of validity and legality Of the
Russo-German pact. The premier
also has asked the other allied gov
ernments to give similar instructions
to their delegates on the commission.
