REPORT SEEING OF BOAT
Great Britain Disturbed by Reported
Capture Of Boat Outside Three
Mile Limits Of l. :.

Fv The Associated Press.
London. NOV. G.-Dtspatches re-
rrived here from Jacksonville, Fla,
reporting the seizure Of a British IL
nuor-carrying vessel within the
twelve-milc limit" which are featured
prominently on the first pages of the
London newspapers today, caused
some surprise in British ministerial
quarters.
There is an apparent desire on the
mart of officials here TO make 1t clear
that while Secretary Hughes proposal
for the curbing of rum-running has
been tentatively agreed to by the I'M
nerial conference it has not been en-
acted into law or embodied IN a
treaty.
The draft of the proposed treaty
comforting on the United States the
r.ght of search and seizure over sus-
nectcd British vessels within the spe-
citied distance from the shore. is still
in the hands Of the experts and will
not be presented TO the imperial con-
ference before Wednesday or Thurs
day.
n Is felt here that until the&new
treaty Is signed by both governments
and ratified by congress the existing
fhreo-miie territorial limit must re-
main in force.

Weeks LASHES
POLITICAL
REFORMS
Indicts Popular Government
Measures Before Students
Of Brown University.
BY international News Service.

PROVIDENCE, r. L.. June 90
I'VE cannot with safety to our.
selves depart from the system OF
government we inherited from our
forefathers!'
With this as his text, Secretary
of War Weeks, addressing the
alumni of Brown University here.
following the 155th annual COM
mencement, sounded warning
against the growing army OF agi-
tators for alleged necessary reforms
of the body polite.
"Our forefathers did not estab.
lish an actual democracy and It
was not their intention or desire TO
do so,' he said. They created q
representative democracy that en-
ables our citizenship to select the
best available talent to represent
1t in its legislative bodies and to
conduct its governmental affairs.
do not be swept off your fest
by the agitators of your day. Study
your Government-you will find It
interesting and profitable-and b
prepared to resist all ill-conceived
and ill-advised innovations in gov
eminent"
Scores Popular Government.
Secretary Weeks particularly at
tackled the initiative and referen-
dunn, two of the modern innova-
tons in vogue in many OF our
State governments" Declaring that
many Of the States are carrying
this system to q dangerous ex-
IRENE, he said that in the adoption
of these measures apparently Il
is assumed that our people are
not competent to elect suitable
representatives but are competent
to act in all the details Of legisla-
tive and other State governmental
affairs Numerous incidents Of
the unwisdom and miscarriage OF
the initiative and referendum were
cited by Weeks
The proposal for direct primary
also was attacked by the Secretary.
Extension of the primary to the
office of the President, he eaid,
would fail utterly to elevate to the
Presidency any man more capable
than those who have served, but
would, however, reduce the election
to chaos and irnpossibility.
Flags Other Reforms.
Other types Of reformers to come
under the lash were:
strict the Supreme Court-the
American governmental Rock OF
Gibraltar
Those who would strengthen our
financial structure by the impos-
] sible sterilization Of the dollar"
The advocates Of disarmament
and ACKNOWLEDGMENT Of our military
forces;
Those who are urging greater
publicity in matters pertaining to
the delicate and confidential rela-
lions Of the United States with
foreign powers.
