that issue is not vital. But, vital
or not, I could not In good con.
science press this issue realizing
that Governor Smith, whom I
greatly admire for his many high
qualities, feels that my charges
question the purity OF his motives
which always should be granted in
any political controversy.
So the ten or a dozen votes on
gambling and prostitution come out
of the record.
II hope now American news

SALE OF SHIPS
BY international News Service

MOSCOW, July S1.-G gorge $
Tchitcherin, Soviet commissar for
foreign affairs. today sent a note
to Rumania protesting against the
sale of 200 ships formerly owned by
Russia and threatening to seize
$60,000;000 in Rumanian gold in re
taIiation.
This gold was transferred from
Rumania into Russia in 1915 when
the capture of Bucharest was threat
ened by the armies of the central
powers.
The 200 vessels in question were
formerly owned by the Russian.
Danube Shipping Company. When
the war began they became the
property of the Russian imperial
army. The Soviets claim they are
legally entitled to the ships.

LONDON, July 31.-British Off
cial circles were optimistic today
that the other interested powers will
approve the terms of the Anglo
French agreement for limitation Of
naval ornaments. The terms OF
the compromise have not been
made public, but will be commune
Gated to America, Italy and Japan
within a short time.
1t is believed here that the condi-
tons of the agreement will form
the basis of a new international
conference to be summoned later.
Negotiations between London and
Paris had been conducted secretly
and the announcement by Foreign
Secretary Sir Austen Chamberlain
took the press by surprise.
According to present plans the
Anglo French terms will be sub
n1itted to the next meeting OF the
preparatory disarmament conference
which, hitherto, has not gone deeply
into the naval aspect of interna.
tional disarmament.

sustained the French views on naval
Limitation. the Anglo French agree
ment will make q solution easy, a
