MOVE Anxious to Assist American Capital If Obstacles Are Removed. By Oable to The Star and Chicago Daily News. Copyright, 1021. CHITA, Far Eastern Republic, July 20.—The far eastern republic at pres- ent makes only two requests of the American government, though it hopes, if these are granted, to present others. It iz willing to await the judgment and convenience of the United States to grant recognition and help in the way of investment of American capital and the importation of American machinery and mate- rials. That the United States is nelther asked nor expected to grant imme- diate recognition of the far eastern republic immediately was clearly es- tablished by talks the writer had with Alexander Mikhallovitch Krasnosch: of the government; vitch Nikiuorov, chairman of the council of sixteen ministers, and with lesser officials. The two requests, which they conslder extremely m est, were explained by Boris Evsee- vich Skvirsky, vice minister of for- elgn affairs, as follows: olicy Change Wanted. In order to assist In the effort to es- tablish & democratic government in Siberia we want the United States first to cease tacit participation in the Japanese occupation by withdrawing the invitation which President Wilson extended to Japan on August 5, 1918, to occupy Siberia and carry out the declaration contained in the Invita- | | tion that the United States would not permit forelgn powers to seize the territory and private property of the Russian people. and second, to grant the request cabled to Washington on April 25, 1921, that permission be given for & commission of ten mem bers of the popular embly ‘and government officials visit the United States and explain the re- sources and political, soclal and e nomic conditions in Siberia, the mem- bers of the commission pledging themselves not to discuss political theorfes. The independence of the far republic was declared April the constitution was adopted April 27, this year. The first article of the constitution states that the republic is established and that it is a demo- cratic_state. Speclal recognition ls extended to soviet Russia, and an- other article declares that when bids for concessions are otherwise equal, preference shall be given to cltizens of the far eastern republic and the federated states of soviet Russia ove foreign bidders. i Other Articles. Other significant articles provide for equality of all citizens before the law, independent of sex. occupation, religion or political affiliation, nul lass divisions, special privileg: nd civil and military titles and grades, guarantee liberty of religion, of sembly, of the press and of speech; forbld ‘censorship of the mails, the telephone and the telegraph; abolish bodily punishment as well the death penalty, and provide t land and what is beneath the of forests and waters and their riches shall be public domain and the prop- erty of the toilers. The system of private property is preserved and the integrity of all goods, movable and fmmovable, is guaranteed to citizens and private organizations under certain restric tions.

Secretary Hoover Convinced Prices Are Not Too High. Secretry Hoover has advised pub- lic utility companies throughout the country to buy thelr winter coal supply instead of waiting for possi- ble lower prices. “I am convinced.” said Mr. Hoover's letter made public here, “that due to the general de- pression. the price of bituminous coal at the mines is not too high at the present time. If there should be a re- covery of business activities in the autumn, taken in conjunction. with the large increase in percentage of disabled cars and the Inability of the railways to finance their maintenance. there are possibilities of develop- ents of a most serious situation regards coal movement. 1 cannot but feel that the Inter- state Commerce Commission in the face of warnings they have sent out in this connection would not be disposed an_event. give any priority in such 2223 Cheaper Than Ice You can buy a dem- onstrating Isko Refriger- ating Machine for your home at HALF PRICE.
