The Russian winter is as severe as
that of the northernmost United
States and Canada, and this has
made the problem doubly pressing,
for the Russian markets have little
clothing available, and the supply
that is for sale is held at prices far
above the reach OF the average
worlIingman. Oyercoats cost more
than years salary. Some of the
organizations allied with the Amer
lean Relief Administration have
sent clothing for distribution in
Russia, but these contributions, big
as they are, have been "only a drop
in the bucket.
To overcome these conditions, the
American Relief Administration has
initiated Clothing Remittance
system operating in every way like
the now famous Hoover Food Re-
mittance. The Clothing Remittance
costs $40. and each clothing pack

Lloyd George Plea Is De-
MED by Parliament
Vote.
BIZ United Press

6V tntLed IFCSS
LONDON, Feb. 20.-The present
British government does not propose
to initiate discussions with the United
States regarding the French occupa-
ton of the Ruhr, Premier Bonar Law
indicated in commons this afternoon.
America, the premier said, could not
be consulted as to whether the in
vasion was in accordance with the
Versailles treaty for the United States
was not a party to that pact.
Premier Bonar Law and his gov
eminent were more firmly e|ntrenched
against political attacks of United
Labor and Liberal opponents than at
any time since the general elections.
Commons by a vote Of 300 to 1876
not such a margin as Lloyd Georges
coalition government used to enjoy,
but sufficient, rejected a Liberal
amendment to the Kings address, pro
posing a League Of Nations inquiry
into GeImany's ability to pay repara-
tons.
Lloyd Georges first important speech
to the House as a member of the op-
position pleaded with the government
to propose Anglo-American interven.
ton and constituted a strong attack
upon Premier Poincare of France.

King Tut's Inner Tomb

the canopy had been rubbed away in

whom the eighteen inches Of space
between the tent-like covering Of the
sarcophagus and the walls proved in
adequate. From now on the privi-
legged few permitted within the lines
may only peep into the inner tomb
through the opening torn through the
wall on Friday.
Egypt is beginning to agitate for her
own. Although the discoveries were
British, there is a strong sentiment
on foot to force the Egyptian govern
ments hand and require that the
priceless treasures of the tomb he
taken to Cairo and kept there, In pos,
session of King Faued, now ruling
$500 years after Tut-Ankh-Amen.
Another movement IS afoot to let
the Of $500 centuries ago
rest In the Valley Of Kings where the
ting cliffs witnessed his priestine glory.
Others want to erect a museum in
the valley and protect the priceless
relics Of Tut-Ankh-Amen.
At any rate the kings tomb will be
sealed until autumn, when return Of
moderate weather will permit further
removal of the catacomb's treasures.
