LONDON IGNORES CHEN's NOTE.
Appeal to League by Chinese al
Geneva Rated Low.

LONDON, February II R.-The
advance of the Cantonese toward
Hangchow in a supposed attempt to
capture Shanghai was regarded in un-
official quarters today as possibly hav-
ing something to do with the suspen-
sion of the negotiations concerning
the British concession in Hankow.
These negotiations were conducted
by the Cantonese foreign minister, Eu-
gene Chen, and the British representa-
tive. Owen O'Mailey. Word from
Hankow concerning the negotiations
has been delayed.
Note Sent to League.
The Chinese note to the secretary
general of the League of Nations, de-
manding withdrawal of the British
order to send troops to China and in
sisting that the Chinese forces were
capable of maintaining order in Shang-
hal, does not attract much notice in
the press. 1t is generally assumed
that the British government does not
attach great importance to it.
Sir Austen Chamberlain, the for
eign secretary, answering questions
in the House of Commons yesterday,
stated that Great Britain had fully
explained her policy to the League
and the government was unable to
sec how the League could assist in
settling the present difficulties in
China.
Chu Not Picking Envoy.
He added that the government had
not attempted to communicate with
Chu Chao- Hsin, who forwarded the
note. So far as he was aware, Chu
was not authorized to represent any
government exercising authority for
the whole of China.
When Chu last September made an
extraordinary Outburst against the
British government" the foreign sec
retary said, he inquired as to his
status, and was Informed by the
| Peking government that Chu was not
acting on its instructions.

ting has not been prompt enough: 1t
has not been efficient enough; the
business has grown to such an extent
that they feel that the present in
cumbent as general counsel has not
been able to cover the legal, technical
part and at the same time administer
the affairs of the office. Therefore.
they proposed to denote the present
general counsel and put in his place
another man selected by the Com.
miSsionerS.
"Our committee is of opinion that
to denote a man does not bring about
efficient service; that to get the talent
the District should have 1t is neceS-
sary to pay the compensation named
by the Senate committee-$7,5 500 q
year. The Senate committee Is not
particularly concerned whether the
general counsel is named by the Presi-
dent or named by the Commissioners
What we are after is effective ad-
ministration of affairs In the legal
department"
Jones Scores Counsel.
Senator Wesley Jones of Washing
ton, a member Of the District sub
committee. declared: II am going to
say frankly that the general impress
while is that the corporation counsel
of this District is absolutely incompe-
tent to discharge the duties of his
office, and the committee were trying
to get rid Of that state OF affairs. If
the Commissioners would not do it
we thought we ought to make this
provision here
Senator Howell of Nebraska wanted
to know II the committee had given
any reason why the Commissioners
would not do it. Answering this in
quiry, Senator Phipps said:
IF l may answer the Senator-it
will take only a moment-the fact is
that in their expressions to us their
evident purpose was to denote the
present corporation counsel and re.
tain him at a salary of SIS 200 q year.
and we do not believe that that is good
administration"
Bruce DenOunceS Tactics.
Senator Bruce Of Maryland took the
position that If the corporation coun.
sci is not qualified for the office. It
should be left to the Commissioners
to dismiss him. He declared it Is q
feeble and insufficient" reason for q
change In law to say that it Is in
tended to legislate some Individual
into office or out Of office.
Later in the debate Senator Jones
of Washington declared he did not
say the incumbent was incompetent
but said II do know that the general
report. from what has been said to me
by a great many people, is that he is
not altogether fitted for the Office"
Senator Copeland pointed out that
there are two new Commissioners in
office now, and that there Is likely tc
be a third new Commissioner soon
and that this new board probably will
make the change suggested.
