from entering.

Scurry to Capitol.

Then the Ambassadors and Minis
ters had 20 scurry along 10 the Capitol
to find out, to the best of their ability,
the point Of view of the leading Sena-
tors-the irreconci.ableS and the
others.
This myth that the President can do
whatever he wanted in the field Of
foreign affairs, and would be backed
by the Senate, has now been diSsi-
pated, and the foreign countries have
found out again that the Senate still
plays preponderant role in the in
ternational affairs of this country.
On the other hand. it was stated
today the chances Of an early reSump-
ton of the limitation of arms conver-
sations have again become slim.
Negotiations between Great Britain
and France to allow Germany to re-
arm are proceeding at slow pace.
The French have indicated their
willingness to scrap the military
clauses of the Versailles treaty in
exchange for a definite security as
surance from the British government.
The British were heSitant about CIV
ing such an assurance. but would
have considered it had America
joined the World Court Such a
move on the part of the American
Government would have been inter-
preted as a clear indication that this
country will not remain Indifferent
in case of a dangerous situation in
Europe. and in many quarters this

R. F. c. EXTENSION
PASSED BY HOUSE
Senate Now to Act ON
Amendments to Admins
tration Measure.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
Working against time, the House
last night passed the administration s
bill to give the Reconstruction Finance
Corporation two years more of exist
ence.
The bill now goes back to the Senate,
which already has approved it, for
action on House amendments.
The r. F. c. will die tomorrow un-
less the legislation is pushed through
to final enactment, and President
Roosevelt has signed it before then.
More Liberal on Loans.
As passed by both Senate and
House. the measure would give the
r. F. c. more liberality in making
loans to private industry. Republicans
and Democrats alike have complained
that existing law is too strict and has
cramped the agency greatly in max
ing advances TO industry. The life Of
the agency would be extended to Feb
ruary !, 1897.
The liberalization was effected by
changing the present requirement Of
adequate security for loans to in
dustry SO as to call merely for reason
able assurance of repayment.
Conditional Assistance.
The r. F. C. measure provided that
any assistance given by the institution
to any financial institution shall be
conditioned upon agreement by the
institution that 1t would not use the
funds in reorganizing any real estate
enterprise, with outstanding debts of
$50 900 or more unless the reorganiZa-
ton plan and fees and expenses were
approved by the Federal Securities and
Commission.
Jesse Jones, r. F. c. chairman, lis
tened to the House discussion.
One of the House amendments ne
cessitating conference action was that
TO authorize loans TO institutions
financing the sale of electrical equip
ment Another would authorize loans
to help develop domestic tin deposits.

COURT REJECTION
SHOCK TO LEAGUE.

Peace and Interna-

BY the Associated Press.


GENEVA, January 30.-League Of
Nations circles learned with keen dis
appointment today of the United
States Senate's rejection of American
adherence to the World Court.
The opinion had been held generally
that ratification of the protocol was
certain.
The news brought from representa-
tives of the powers expressions of be-
lief that the Senates action consti-
tutes a severe blow to the building up
of international law and promotion
of peace through the policy Of set
ting disputes by judicial process.
1t was pointed out that the world
powers at special conference offered
the United States a privileged form
of membership in the court which no
other member enjoys.
Some Spokesmen declared the result
should be a lesson to Europe to dis
continue offering special privileges to
the United States as the price OF
American participation in intema-
tional organisms.
The United States, they said. should
accept the same responsibility in world
affairs as other nations or remain out
side the organizations of international
cooperation.

The ruler of Nanking has always
had soft spot for the japanese He
started life as customs man in a
brokerage house in Canton, and be-
came a soldier later. Part of his
military training was achieved in
Tokic-hence his admiration for the
japanese Army. The reason why he
had not come to terms with Japan
earlier was that his cabinet was not
ripe for it. They all believed that
neither the United States nor Great
Britain could afford to allow Japan
to gain an absolute supremacy in
China. and that sooner or later Japan
will be forced to abandon her mill
tary conquestS, either by the action
OF the League of Nations or by the
determined opposition of Britain and
America. Now Chang Kai Sheck has
shown them conclusively that nothing
can be expected from those quarters
and Japanese Chinese understand
ing is very likely.
Reports from Shanghai indicate
that the Japanese have launched
against Chang Kai Sheck what the
British used to call "the st. Georges
cavalry" The British SIS gold pieces
have on the back the image of st.
George. These coins were used ex-
tenSively during the World War for
the purpose of buying the support of
the Arabs against the Turks, and
were more feared by the Central pow
ers than Lord Allenby's lancers.

Those who saw in the severe Ger

The Winter has been a bad one in
the Reich. The economic isolation of
Germany is almost complete. Her
finances are in a bad shape, food is
scarce. But the Germans seem to
stand the brunt without murmur.
More than ever, they consider them
selves as Gods chosen nation. The
jealous outside world, they think, is
trying to break down their resistance,
but won't succeed.
