Note Received Today Agrees,
However, to Refer Issue to

12-MILE SEARCH LIMIT
Door Is Believed Still Open to Ne

The British reply to Secretary
Hughes proposals for a reciprocal
agreement on ship liquor and liquor
smuggling was received at the State
Department today and was described
by officials as "in general not sym
pathetic to the proposals" The Brit
lsh government plans. however, to
present the question to the British
imperial conference, which meets in
London next month
State Department officials view
the British communication as leaving
open the possibility of negotiating
a double -barreled treaty to curb rum
running and also to facilitate legiti-
mate liquor shipments in foreign
bottoms. There was no attempt
however, to disguise the fact that the
British government had indicated
general disapproval of the plan and
raised objections against it.
Asked 12-MIe Limit.
In his proposals. made TO severaI
powers, including France as we'll as
Great Britain. Secretary Hughes
pointed out that the draft treaty sub
mftted was designed to make a spe-
cial arrangement extending the right
OF search and seizure up to twelve
miles off shore for the particular pur-
pose of. preventing wholesale SNUG
glihg of liquor into the United States.
1t was emphasized that no proiect
was being put forward by the United
states for any change In the general
rule OF international practice that
nxes the limit of territorial waters.
Secretary Hughes also pointed out
that under existing law in this coun-
try the government was powerless to
permit stores of liquor on foreign
snlps TO enter American waters, even
when 1t was clear that the liquor was
not TO be used or delivered within
American jurisdiction. BY an eyer
else OF the treatymaking power, Mr..
hughes proposed to overcome this
OBSTACLE In a way that would have
the enect OF an amendment of the
law.

/ The State Department does not plan
to make public the British COM

door open to ultimate negotiation of
a treaty along the lines of that pro-

VOTE NO ADVANCE
IN PRICE OF MILK
Farmers Who Supply Wash
ington viii Not Charge
More Next Winter.

The farmers of Maryland and vir-
ginia, who produce Washington's
milk supply. voted this afternoon not
TO seek a higher price this winter.
This was announced this afternoon
by o. A. Jamison. secretary of the
farmers organization, following di-
rectors' meeting at 17S1 street.
This action, 1t is believed, removes
the possibility of an advance in the
retail price of milk in Washington after
October !.
At the present time the basic whole
sale price paid to the farmer by the
local distributor is 20 cents per gall
lon for milk of 3.5 per cepf quality.
The wholesale price is higher in pro-
portion to the increase in quality
above that percentage. The general re-
tail price at this time is IA cents per
quart.

YWOOD FINDS
FOR !. ". c. A.
, Marjorie Williams Writes
of Studio Club.

That the sophisticated actresses of
he film, residing in Hollywood, Cal,
Ian find a use for the Y. w. c. A. and
Its activities as do the working girls
Ind school girls of Indianapolis is
shown by a letter which has just
been received at the local Y. w. c. A.
from Miss Marjorie Williams of
Rochester, who is now connected with
the Studio Club in Hollywood. Miss
Williams says:
Movie actresses, from those in the
fnear star parts to others playing
Ias extras, have combined TO make the
Studio Club here such a success.
Our movie family is made up of
every branch of the profession. The
girls are all delightfully."- talented and
fascinating. Aside from eight actresses
six screen or legitimate and two
'extras'-we have scenario writer's,
publicity and newspaper writer's, cut
ter and one promotion agent. Nearly
all are working at the big studios.
Eight nationalities are represented
among them. Several numbers are
taking part in a sketch, A Holly
wood Closeup soon to appear on a
vaudeville circuit. 1t has been writ
ten by a resident member of the club.
Teas and frequent dances are
among the social activities of the
club. Until the conditions in the movie
industry improve, girls are strongly
urged not to come to Hollywood
without definite positions or sufficient
cash to tide them over an indefinite
period of unemployment"
Seasonal work as extras" accord
ing to Miss Williams, is difficult even
for young women familiar with the
big studios. Mrs. Jesse Lasky, Mrs.
c. B. De Mile and Mrs. William De
Mile are among the women promi-
nent in the Hollywood circle who are
active in the club. Daniel Froh-
man is another stanch friend who
visits it on all his trips to the coast
and frequently entertains its mem
bers.
