Diplomatic business not mine.
But that's got nothing to do with
it, what I am getting at is the
interesting letters this fellow Bris-
bane writes. I am going to show
you one he wrote me that I just
got.
My Dear Rogers:
Now that have established your
credit as a mult-millionaire, and
that you have destroyed mine by
making me out in the public prints
as destitute, which by the way ]
regret to say is an extremely &C.
curate description, let us talk seri-
ously about Russia. This country
including its brightest intellects
even your own, fail to appreciate
the Importance of what is going on
in Russia.
You know that when Louie the
sixteenth came back from shooting
at Fontainebleau on a certain 18th
of July he wrote in his dairy
REIN" meaning in the French
language, Nothing" He hadn't
shot anything, and he simply wrote
down that nothing had happened
But that was the 18th of July on
which the Bastile was destroyed
and later as a consequence of that
rein" day, they just casually
chopped off his head.
The King of Persia asked
Where is Greece?" and said to his
royal remembrance, Remind me
sometime to go down and destroy
that little Country" His descend.
ants learned about Greece when
Alexander came from Macedonia
with 10000 men and sent him fly.
ing to his death, went through his
line of war Elephants and took his
Country.
All of which leads up to the fact
that Will Rogers should study and
analize, and understand Russia
not dispose of it with a wave of a
hand, like some foolish Wall Street
Broker who buys Kerensky Bonds
and bellyaches because they are
not paid. We didn't pay the bonds
issued by the South.
I have no doubt that the Russian
experiment will fail eventually, be-
ing based on pretense of unselfish-
ness and brotherly love, which
have no existence among human
beings.
But it's experiments in Industry,
in world competition, and efficiency
may cost some of the old Capital
list civilizations dear, if they ignore
it. Alexanders Empire fell, dwin-
ding down to the Cleopatra and
Mark Anthony foolishness, but not
until he had put an end forever to
the old Persia. So you ought to
warn your readers not to underate
Russia. Many years ago when you
were a little boy( thanks for that
kind compliment Arthur), I told
Klaw, Erlanger, Frohman and
Brady that someday Movies would
sweep the country and be in every
town. They thought I was crazy.
Well look and see.
4No" yoo IclhC old SoIo Will AAAso
Carthage must be destroyed" and
keep saying every day at the end
of your piece" in diamond type,
Watch and beware of Russia"
This is talked into my photograph
in my automobile on my way in
from Long Island to New York,
hence the length. Your sincerely,
A. Brisbane.
Now wasn't that a fine letter.
You know he is great fellow.
And he does know enough about it
to know that they are going some
where, and we better watch out
while they are on the way. I

SPEEDY PACT 0. K.
IS SEEN BY BORAH
Believes Senate Will Ratify
London Treaty by Middle
of June.
BY G. GOULD LINCOLN.

Ratification of the London naval
treaty by mid-June Is foreseen by SEN
ator Borah of Idaho, chairman of the
foreign relations committee Of the SEN
ate, who said last night he saw no rea-
son why Congress should not complete
its work, including action on the treaty,
by that time.
Whether the treaty is to be considered
at the present regular session Of Con-
gress or at a special session Of the Sen
ate to be called by President Hoover i'm
mediately after Congress adjourns. how
ever, remains to be determined. Chair
man Borah indicated that 1t was imma-
terial to him whether the treaty is con-
sidered during the regular session or at
a special session. He Is opposed, how
ever, to delaying consideration of the
treaty until next December, as some of
its opponents, including Senator Hiram
johnson Of California and Senator Hale
of Maine, chairman of the naval affairs
committee, have proposed.
Determine Program Tomorrow.
The Senate program will be deter
mined at meeting of the Republican
conference of the Senate tomorrow
morning. Senator Watson of Indiana,
Republican leader. will ask at the con-
ference that Republican Senators them
selves fix the program. He believes the
work of the Senate, including action on
the treaty, can be concluded at the reg
ular session without need Of a special
session.
President Hoover's statement that he
intended to call special session of the
Senate Immediately after the adjourn
ment Of the present congressional ses-
sion If the London treaty Is not acted
on before adjournment has pretty well
put an end to talk of forcing the treaty
over to December. Friends Of the treaty
who have looked into the situation do
not believe opponents will be able to
muster more than dozen votes against
ratification, If that many.
Chairman Borah expects his commit
tee will end hearings on the treaty by
the middle Of this week. The treaty
will be ordered favorably reported by
an overwhelming majority vote Of the
committee, 1t now appears. Senator
Borah sees no need for reservations

Without Increase of Lump
Sum Budget Would Require
Tax Rate Boost to $2.35.
CUTS WILL REDUCE
preliminary FIGURE
But With Surplus Gone Donovan
Shows City Dependent on
Current Revenues.

Estimates by District department
heads Of the amount of money needed
to run their respective departments in
the fiscal year 1882 amount to $54,177,-
3o2, 1t was announced yesterday by
Daniel j. Donovan, District auditor.
The significance of the figures is.
briefly, that if they are approved and
the Government does not increase its
contribution, the tax rate must be
raised in 1882 to $2.35. If the. tax rate
IN 1882 is to remain at its present level
OF $l.70, with the United States re-
manning the same, then approximately
$1,000, 900 of the department heads estt-
mates must be cut out.
For comparative purposes, the de-
partment hea rs requests last year
totaled $57,657 sos, and the District
commissioners finally approved a total
OF $4s, 460, 1858. A surplus Of $4,000, 900
enabled the District to raise this
amount. The amount carried In the
House appropriation bill now awaiting
enactment, including trust and special
funds, is $47,815,617, and the amount in
the Senate bill is sac, 1907, 955.
Departmental Estimates.
The departmental estimates include
the following items:
Gasoline tax, $l,800,00o; water rev.
enue, $2,093, 040, and trust and special
funds to the amount of 1851 500. The
charge to be levied against the general
revenue of the District is SAT ,6O2, 762.
Maj. Donovan explained that this
sum would require tax rate of 1920
iva NJ
In addition to the sum represented by
the department estimates, however,
there must be taken into consideration
the annual deficit of approximately
$500, 900 in the police pension fund and
varying sums for refunds of taxes or
dered by the courts and damages
awarded in street condemnation and
other cases. which bring 1t up to about
$48, 477,762
If the police and firemen pay in
would add ap s s $500 10000 GO m ss
and the usual supplemental and general
deficiencies, which cannot be definitely
estimated in advance, would add about
$500, 900 more, bringing the total to
$49,577,762. To raise this sum would
require a tax rate Of Sass.
Working Surplus Negligible.
Maj. Donovan pointed out that the
District must finance its 1882 expendi-
lures entirely out Of current revenues.
The best estimate of the amount of
available surplus to the credit of the
District in the Federal Treasury at the
end Of the 1891 fiscal year puts 1t at
about. $4,000. This. considered as q
working surplus, Is virtually negligible,
Maj. Donovan said, and had best been
left out Of consideration. This latter
sum is in addition to the $3,000,0 600

Executives Views Learned Aftei
Report Is Finished-Fght Now
Impends on It's Acceptance.
BY the Associated Press.


Indications that President Hoover is
dissatisfied with the modified flexible
provision put into the tariff bill by
the congressional conferees were seen
last night in developments at the Cap
itol.
Some of the Senate visitors at Pres
ident Hoover's Rapidan fishing camp
returned to Washington last night and
conferences ensued with Chairman
Smoot Of the Senate finance committee.
Although Walter Newton, executive
secretary to the President, was in con-
ference with Smoot and Represents
tive Hawley OF Oregon, co-authors Of
the tariff bill, before the final draft
Of the measure was agreed to yester-
day, it was believed that the President
was not pleased with the language de-
termined upon fixing his right to put
into effect new tariff rates.
Conferees CurtaH Power.
The conferees curtailed the powers of
the Chief Executive, making 1t manda-
tory for him to either approve or veto
new tariff rates to be determined here
after by a bipartisan tariff commits
sion.
It was uncertain last night whether
another attempt would be made to
change the final form of the tariff
measure which was agreed upon yes
terday and which Is to be submitted to
the Senate on Tuesday.
The indications Of presidential dis
pleasure add a new menace to the bill
which already faces a real battle from
the Democrats on points Of order.

guard, were those who visited with the
President yesterday at Rapidan and

The return Of the congressional dele
