at the free city of Danzig 27 June,
we secured permission and went
ashore We wandered about the
city visiting several places of inter
est among which were two church, s
over 200 years old.
We arrived at Libau 80 June We
went from Libau to Riga, the cap
ital of Latvia by train arriving there
1 July. At Riga we got in touch
with the Russian Consul who gave
us royal welcome. Three automo-
biles were put at our disposal, and
accompanied by the Consul and his
co-workers we were driven through
the city and through the most beau
tiful sections Of the suburbs. On
our return we were given a farewell
, dinner before departing for Moscow.
The trip from Riga to Moscow
takes around So hours. We arrived
there Saturday July. A group of
Russian Students some Of whom
spoke little English, met us at
the station with automobiles and ac.
companied us to our hotel. We were
most cordially received by the rep
resentatives Of the Russian Students
National Organization and every
thing possible was done for our con-
ven ence and comfort.

trip through South Russia. This
trip carried us through the Cauca-

the Ukraine. the oldest agricultural
part of the Soviet Union. We visit
ed Tiflis, the capital of Georgia in
the tropical zone. We stopped at
Yalta, beautiful summer resort on

During this trip OF five weeks we
visited rest homes for workers, hos
pitfalls, colleges, experiment stations,
electrical plants, factories, art gal
leries, museums, villages, theatres,
children's colonies, prison and
other interesting places. With the
aid of our translator we were able
to learn much concerning the Soviet
system and the new developments in
the Union. Besides we met quite a
number of students and a few work
ers who could speak English, German
and French.
We returned to Moscow Sunday,
18th Of August. During our stay in
Moscow we had Mr.. Durantz, Mos
COW correspondent Of the New York
Times; Reswich, A. p. Correspond
ent; Anna Louise Strong, social
worker; four colored students from
the Communist University of Mos

got from these people relative to the
problems and conditions in the
Soviet Union.
On Saturday, 21st August, five of
our delegation left Moscow for Len
ingrad. Arriving at Leningrad the
next day we were carried to the
Trade Union Quarters, where we re-
NAMED during our stay in the old
Russian capital. While in Lenin-

THOSE WAR LOANS

1t will be q relief if the status of
this countrys war loans may be ad-
justed on a stable basis and cease
to be source of international fric-
ton and misunderstanding. The
likelihood of settlement with Italy
and the beginning of another at
tempt to come to agreement with
France augur favorably for such a
contamination.
There has been lot of mislead
ing talk first and last but it is not
unreasonable to infer that out of it
all the peoples involved have or will
come to a clearer understanding of
each others difficulties. and this in
time may be productive Of intel
ligently directed aid.
So far this country has insisted
that each country's loans must be
considered on the merits peculiar to
that case, that consideration of ca
pacity to pay shall be had, but that
cancellation is not to be considered,
neither is the collection to be made
contingent on the payments of the
German indemnity. that it is not for
us to seem to dictate what shall be
the domestic policies Of the debtor
country, nor are the war loans to
become involved with private loans.
A policy of considerateness has
been maintained, Notwithstanding
we have been accused of extortion
and whatever charge might best
serve the demagogues of the country
with which we at the time were
dealing, and we believe that in the
end our attitude will be respected as
the best which we might justly I'M

FOR pEPoRTING CRIMINAL
ALIENS

The effort to secure the deporta-
ton of criminal aliens is again In
evidence. The House immigration
Committee has reported a bill, re-
vised, that was presented by Rep
resentative Holiday Of Illinois and
the chairman of the committee says
it is a better bill than was favored
last year but was defeated in the
Senate.
This measure calls for deportation
Of criminals and detectives that are
aliens and may serve appreciably to
thin out the ranks of bootleggers. al
though there is little occasion to
doubt but the ranks would speedily
be filled. 1t specifically includes
aliens carrying concealed weapons
and If it becomes law should prove
somewhat of a restraint upon that
class of bandits. Aliens found
smuggling aliens, aliens of the
prostitute ranks, and opium snug
glers II aliens could be deported.
Some way ought to be devised for
getting such pests out of the coun-
try at least as rapidly as they are
being smuggled in.

Hold Expenses
Coolidge Plea
To Congress Leaders

Washington, April 24.-(P)-Sen.
ate and House leaders emerged
from a breakfast conference at the
White House today with two things
in mind-holding down appropria-
tons and adjourning.
House leaders even saw prospects
of quitting for the summer by May
Is, and some of the Senators thought
1t would be possible to finish up the
legislative program early in May and
then consider the impeachment OF
Federal Judge English of Illinois.
The guests got the very definite
impression that the President
thought appropriat atoms had gone
about far enough for this session and
Representative Tilson, the Republic
opinion that it would be best for
Congress to adjourn and go home
inasmuch as I'VE have no money to
spend"
1t was gathered from expressions
of the leaders that farm relief Leg
islation which would place an i'm
mediate tax on the treasury would
have rocky road to travel, but none
would say definitely whether the
pending measure came in this class
Another bill which some of them ex.
pect to be vetoed, Is the measure to
increase the pensions of disabled
Spanish war veterans. The Presi-
dent now has this measure and is
seeking the opinion of Director Lord
of the budget. as to how 1t will af-
feet government finances.
After the conference, Representa-
tive Tilson issued this statement:
Farm legislation was not speci-
f7n a 1Iyr -nfn %
connected with the financial problem,
but there was considerable discus
sion of the legislative situation in
general. with particular reference to
bills proposing large increases in the
annual expenditures in the govern
ment.
"On the House calendar there are
bills increasing pensions, retirement
annuities and other annual expendi-
lures by approximately $3.50, 900, 900,
very nearly the amount by which
taxes were reduced.
Means may be found for taking
care of some, but it is certain all or
even most cannot be passed without
a deficit, and for one, speaking for
myself alone, l am unwilling to do
this.
Il am not falimiar with all the
DlIlS penuinS on agriculture, but II is
my hope that bill will be reported
by the committee on agriculture
which can be passed without endan-
gering seriously the financial policy
of the administration. / am holding
time for the consideration of an
agricultural bill. l hope House."
Mr.. Tilson hoped for passage of
the $36,000,000 omnibus rivers and
harbors bill and some of the senators
on the basis of their conference, held
hopes for the ADMINISTRATORS CO.
operative marketing bill. the McFad-
den branch banking bill, the public
buildings bill, ratification of pending
debt settlements. and other measures
rot calling for appropriations which
would embarrass the treasury.

ed Muscle Shoals legislation. war
