to Ashland and Eugene, Ore, to Seattle.
"This decision was arrived at"

MACDONALD SEEKS
ACCORD W|THPAR|S
Poincare Sympathetic With

BY the Associate Press,

ny tHe assOcldteu fTtss.
LONDON, January 30.-Prime Min
ister Macdonald recently sent a per-
sonal letter to Premier Poincare, in
which he expressed desire for a
settlement of the difficulties between
Great Britain and France and for a
complete Anglo-French understand
ing, and NJ. Pcincare replied sympa-
thetically, according to statements
printed by the Daily Telegraph and
the Daily Express.
The letter informed NJ Poincare
with perfect candor that relations be-
tween the two countries, for several
well understood reasons, had ceased
to be as friendly as formerly and
that public opinion in Great Britain
viewed the French policy with a GER
tain degree of suspicion, being some
what nervous about what might hap
pen in Europe.
The prime minister then, according
to the daily Telegraph, expressed a
willingness ito meet Poincare half
way in an attempt to achieve a final.
complete and clear settlement" He
also voiced the hope that the French
government, in the same conciliatory
spirit, would be ready to discuss all
outstanding questions.
NJ. Poincare's answer, asserts the
newspaper, was awaited with some
anxiety lest the approach should not
have been well received. But it
seems that the answer was sympa-
thetic, giving rise to a hope for a
better atmosphere.

$8OO,O(0,0DO DEBT
OF SOVIET TO j. S.
Restitution One of Conditions
of Recognition by This
Country.
BY FREDERIC WILLIAM VILE.

Soviet Russia has confiscated more
than s400,000,000 worth of American
property. Until restitution for it is
made to our citizens. recognition of the
Moscow government is not considered
debatable at Washington. There has
been as Yet, in the language of Presi-
dent Coolidge's message to Congress, no
disposition to compensate our citi-
ZensNwho are despoiled."
Russian affairs now under investiga-
ton by Senator Borah's subcommittee
have not included the American prop
erty confiscated by the soviet The total
amount or the United States cfain1s is
between $700.O0O.000 and $500, goo, ,O00
This sum is made up partly of s241,-
903,072, which is the debt contracted
with our government by the so-called
Kerensky republic of Russia (principaI
and interest to November Is, 1929, and
s75,00e,000 of bonds f1oate.S on the
American money market by the Keren-
sky regime. These debts were officially
repudiated by the soviet authorities in
formal decree, which disavowed LA
bility for all foreign loans contracted
by either the czarist or Kerensky gov
ernment.
U. s. Property Seized.
The repudiated Indebtedness ag-
gregates s316,9O3,072. The American
property which has been confscated
aggregates a value approximating
s433,000.000. This property, along
with the property of other foreign
nationals, has been seized by the
soviet progressively during the past
seven years. In the case of the
Americans who have been despoiled,
it includes actual cash on deposit in
Russian banks or in the Russian
branches of American banks; real
estate; timber lands; warehouses.
factories and Office buildings; stocks
of goods. and mobile supplies and
chattels of all kinds. The right to
confiscate property of foreigners was
incorporated in the first constitution
of the soviet republic and thus be-
came a fundamental law of the land.
The looting process. therefore, is con-
stitutionally authorized. Restitution
of confiscated property accordingly
cannot take place until the constitu-
ton is revised or repealed.
Bank Assets Taken.
One Of the heaviest American suf-
ferers through soviet confiscation is
the National City Bank of New York.
1t maintained important branches in
Petrograd, Moscow and other cities.
When the soviet usurped power the
National City's assets of every de-
scription were pounced upon, includ-
ing cash, securities and everything

COO[|DCE'S SFUTURE
IN PERIL BY PROBE
Republican Leaders See
President Handling AWk-
ward Situation Well.
BY DAVID LAWRENCE.

President Coolidge's political future
has become wrapped up in the Teapot
Dome controversy. There no longer
is any question, from the action of
his friends both inside and outside
of Congress, that upon the steps he
takes in the immediate future will
depend to large extent the oppor-
tunitieS he has for nomination and
election.
Whether the issue is big enough to
force the defeat of the republican
party at the polls it is, of course, too
early to say, but the nervous activity
of the republican leaders indicates
that they will leave no stone un-
turned to prevent the Teapot Dome
affair from achieving an exaggerated
Importance politically.

Coolidge feel he has handled an awk-
ward situation we'll and tnar his Sc

Of democratic President, together

But these two men will only in
vcstigate the criminal features of the
casc-whether there has been cor
ruption. They have no right to pass
upon the competence or incompe-
teree of the Secretary of the Navy
or the Attorney General in Mr.. Cool
idgG's cabinet.
The mere fact that the Attorney
General is not considered an unpreju-
diced prosecutor, according to the
viewpoint of the democrats, and that
Mr.. Coolidge has appointed special
counsel. has simply given the demo-
crafts more ammunition for their bonn
bardment of the republican admins
tration.
Almost everywhere in Washington
that one goes the Teapot Dome scan
day is being discussed and the ques-
tions usually asked relate entirely to
the effect of the controversy on Mr..
Coolidge's chances of election if he
is nominated.
At first. in the Senate debate there
was an effort to drag Mr.. Coolidge
into the affair by pointing out that he
sat at cabinet meetings under Presi-

but it is possible, of
course, that Mr.. Coolidge was absent
as it will be recalled that he accepted
many speaking engagements as Vice
which Mr.. Harding was un-
able to accept.
But the answer given to the charge
that Mr.. Coolidge was jointly re-
