FRENCH TREATY
 WITH RUSSIA IS
 NOT COMPLETED
Some Difficulties Are in Way of Final Closing
 of the Past {.
By RALPH .HEINZEN

(Unlte0 Press St0m COfFeSpOHucItB Paris, April 20-- (UP)--Francess military treaty with Soviet Russia was tangled today in the maze oe treaties which European diplomat- ists have built up during the post- war years as a guarantee that if and when a new war comes 1t will be a big one. The treaty was to have been initialled here today by Foreign Minister Pierre Naval and Maxim Litvinov, Russian foreign minister. Instead, Litvinov left Geneva for Moscow and Laval tired out, intended to leave for an eastern holiday in the country.
 Treaty Not Complete
 It was explained that the treaty draft was not completed and that Litvinov was called home for po- ltical reasons. But the reason really was a disagreement, prob- ably susceptible of easy liquidation, as to the terms on which France and Russia will aid each other in event Germany attacks. Russia, be- lieving that Germany seeks a por- ton of it's territory and is ready to go to war to get 1t, wants treaty that will bring France to its aid directly. France insists that the treaty must be comported with the League of Nations covenant, which means that the league coun- ell would have to meet and declare Germany an aggressor before aid was given.
 Locarno Treaty Is Block
 It was found, also, belatedly. that if France invaded Germany to aid Russia, the Locarno treaty signed in 1925 would bind Great Britain, Italy and Belgium to attack France in Germany's defense. This treaty did not include Russia, but bound the other nations mentioned. in- cluding Germany, to go to each others defense if one was attacked. It was predicted here that a way out would be found with ease, so that under one of the multiplicity of treaties France and Russia would be able to aid each other without violating any agreements.

Registration Close Midnight Tonight
 For Bond Election

The City Clerks office, M.J Walsh city clerk, will remain open this evening until 12 o'clock Midnight to accommodate all who are qualified to vote in the pending bond election, for purpose of registration.
 Tonight is the last opportunity to register for this election. Every pro- perty owner qualified to vote should consider it his duty to register as registration will close at Midnight.
 Such was the result of an irap art- ant conference by the city council last night, in regular session. Coun- cilmen, city officials and others de- plored the lack of interest shown in this respect.
 While commenting on the bonding election, it was also determined that the preliminary engineering data was being worked out and was rap idly nearing completion, so that by the time the federal authorities in Washington, DC, sign the loan and grant agreement of the PWA which was signed by city officials and mail ed some time ago, it will be possible to almost immediately advertise for bids and get the rehabilitation work started in the near future.
 The specifications for graveling the streets of Nome have already been worked out and will soon be ready to advertise for bids. Work on preparing the data for the fire mains is already partially completed and an architect is engaged at the present time in drawing plans and specifications for the City Building.
