BY JUNIUS B. WOOD. By Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily News. Copyright, 1921. VLADIVOSTOK, Slberia, April 9.— An outline of the purposes of the Far Eastern republic economic mission, for which permlssion to visit the United €3 has been asked of Secretary of Stute Hughes, was given the writer | today by Innokenty Serafinovites Ko- zhevmkov, assistant minister of for- eign affairs. He represents the Chita government in dealings and arrangements con- cerning concession hunters, foreign jconsuls and the local government., I found him living in a private car near the railroad station, which is the cen- ter of every battle in revolution-rid- den Vladivostok. “The Far Eastern republic.” he said, “needs a loan credit of $250,000,000 in installments covering several years. Only a small portion of actual cash is required for the various government { purposes.

The mem- bership is typical of the population of the Siberlan republic. The majority are plain peasants, while the others represent the commercial. industrial and professional classes. The is not interested in propagand concerned only with meeting members of the American government and the representatives of financial houses and industrial concerns. “One main object of the mission is to explain to the American people, through such channels as the Ameri- can_government decides, the present conditions and future possibilities of Siberia.

CABLE COMPANIES SEEK FRENCH PRIVILEGE { i State Department Announces Ne- gotiations in Progress for Direct | Dealing With Public. i Negotiations are in progress with France to obtain for American cable companies the right fo deal direct with the French public, it was an- nounced yesterday at the State De- partment. The government is at- templing to put American cable com- panies operating in France on the same footing as French companies in the United States, it was explained, | business organizations and chambers of commerce having urged such ac- tion. Under present French regulations American companies must receive, deliver and collect for messages in France through local cable com-, panies under government super- vision. The matter was up during the re- cent internation: communications conference and has since been pressed by Ambassador Wullace at Parls. Answering a letter from Senator Har. ris of Georgia. who had inquired as to progress mt the suggestion of the vannah Chember of Commerce, cretary Hughes said yesterday that hile the French government had thus far “failed to comply with the American suggestions,” negotiations were proceeding and the department had not “found it advisable to adopt a new course of action.” —_— 60,000 GALLONS IN SEWER Gary, Ind., Police Pour Out Two- Year Liguor Seizures.
