At Last the Name of
Wrangel May Shine

MOSCOW, Nov. II. Russia is
eolonizing Wrangel Island. to which
America laid claim to "inchoate title"
in 1881, by reason Of the landing Of a
party from a revenue cutter and the
planting of the U. S. nag, a title that
under international law lapses if not
made good by occupation.
The island was discovered by Baron
Wrangel. Now the Soviet government,
after evicting a group of EskimOs,
headed by Charles Wellssan American
who professed to be acting for the
British government, claims it as a part
Of their territory.
Russians have been conveyed by a
Junker seaplane to the island, with
material for houses and a three years
supply of provisions. In the party
are a doctor, a nurse, teacher, and
another woman.
The island is of great value as po-
tential airplane base.

rights of extraterritoriality by the
Pekina government. This action has
not only thrown Belgian imperialists,
whose spokesman today is none other
than Vandervelde, the socialist, into a
fury, but has aroused the fear of the
other fifteen powers with whom China
has at one time or another been
obliged to conclude q treaty.
The action of the Picking govern
ment, accompanied by the decision of
the Canton government to impose
taxes upon foreigners, comes as an un-
expected stroke, altho the question has
been under consideration since June
"a, 1925, when China, in note to the
powers, pointed out that altho allied
to the Entente in the war, its own
international status was not improved
and in some respects inferior to that
Of defeated nations "for in none of
them do we find the existence of extra
territorial courts, foreign concessions,
leased territories, and an externally
imposed conventional tariff"
We cannot tell If the Picking govern
ment will carry It's fight against the
imperialist treaties to the bitter end.
But the very proposals OF Picking are
of profound significance 1t is known
that they will demand fundamental
changes, /. e., position OF equality, in

Metaxass the party Of Freedom, -

a government having the support of
approximately 200 members as against
the combined strength of all the other

somewhat unclear in Greece, with its

unless considerable pressure is brot

towards French Imperialism. Certainly
Mussolini can gain small comfort from

Of Greece is OF paramount Importance
