an SHIP RUM TREATY TERMS PROPOSED U. S. Might Permit Sealed| Stores for Right of Search in 12-Mile Limit. BY DAVID LAWRENCE. Toreign governments have notified | the United States government that toey believe America is abandoning the comity of nations in enforeing | within the three-mile limit the prohi- Lition against liquor rations carried vider seal for use on the high seas. Secretary of State Hughes in turn has told the principal powers that v-hile he recognizes the inconvenience to whicli they arc put, there is an even greater inconvenience to Amer: fca practiced by foreign governments in permitting their flags to be used by the rum fleet outside the three-mile Ymit Propoxes Reciprocity. Tnited States government. e, has proposed a reciprocity ccaty, whereby America would relax .r restrictions with respect to car- soes of liquor carrled under seal to i n ports for use outside the Tnited States, provided foreign gov- crnments would raise no objection to tie scarch and seizure of foreign ves- sels coming within twelve miles of ! “merican shores. It is the belief of the American government that noj rum fleet could operate effectively ‘lve miles out, because of the culty small boats would have in transporting liquor to shore from a distance, especially with the wezther and storm handicaps. The Department of State has been sing such a _reciprocity ar- tent with forcign governments | ome time and it was intended to nothing wbout it until some defi- © stage in the negotiations had been bed. o e ot the publica- | uints of the proposal. @ eonmprehensive explanation of - the Amcrican government's purposes was Around Law would be this: ure sranted at present. upreme Court has Said ofErens permits of mo septions to the carriage o quor e |\\‘ any vessels entering erican ports, even if in tramsit to “other country. Congress, however. solute right to relax the nd write into the law specific exceptions. This Is because the cighteenth amendment seeks to prohibit simply the introduction t:f liquor into the United States for bev- ze purposes. Liquor held under would not be introduced into v, but carried out to sea im- liately upon the departure of the Congress would not be per- ded to make such an exception and meet the convenlence of foreign ‘overnments €0 long as there exists Swhat is described as an intolerable situation just outside the three-mile Yimit. | The Secretary of State with the ap- yroval of the President has under- Taken to use the treaty-making power to modify the existing law of Cou- gress. Any treaty which receives the assent of two-thirds of the Senate becomes the law of the land. Instead of having Congress make the excep- tlons, the administration has decided it would be simpler for the Depart- ment of State to negotiate areciproe-y ity treaty with foreign powers where- something is given to the United States in exchange for something siven by the United States to outside powers. This kind a trade is not tinusual in diplomas Attitude of Drys. As for the “drys” in Congress, they would be more than glad to approve 2 treaty giving the American govern- | ment the right to scarch and seize up to twelve miles in return for the jnnocuous privilege to foreign gov-| ermnents of carrying liquor stores er seal in American ports which dves not affect the peace of America #nd does not add to the liquor sup- Py, Rum serion smuggling, however. fis so matter and means so plain- Iv a conspiracy to violate American { Taws that any drastic steps such as the twelve-mile scarch limit would be welcomed by the drys as a powerful ! riethod of keeping bootleggers from i tling their principal source of sup- . ] Piiveden has a_twelve-mile limit to prevent smuggling, and there is am-{ ple precedent for America’s request. Jt was announced, incidentally, (h¢g} ihe power sought would not in anv! way mean an extension of the terri-} torial boundaries as now construed under international law, so that under ho circumstances could there be a twelve-mile protecting limit for bel- ligerent ships_within neutral waters m The treaties would spe- Cifically define and limit the purpose of the twelve-mile limit. Fow Powers Approachnd. | ot only a few of the principal 1 e approached, but secured there is all other govern- into line. As a it probably would ssary to have a treaty with foreign government or else the rum flect would merely protect its operations under the flag" of the ntry which had not assented. Tt means a long and difficult negotia- Yion. but the American government seces In it the only way out of the yum smuggling problem which now has been officially and effectively tied up with the permission sought by forelgn hips to carry liquor for i crews into American ports under seal. While no objections can be fore- seen from this side of the Atlantic the attitude of foreign governments probab depend on how much influence foreign producers of liquor ged in rum running now hi\‘el with their own governments, Copsright, 1923.

By the Associated Press. LONDON, June 13.—There is no sign that the British efforts to act as con- ciliator between France and Germany have yet met with success. There was no further mecting of the British cabinet yesterday, but diplomatic pourparlors continued at the foreign office were believed to be aiming at some formula to save the face of both France and Germany. mnesty in the Ruhr” s the purase met wish in the press of Ton- don, and ft is believed that the British effort is to persuade hte French mov- ernment to ‘zet back to the original idea of civil, as opposed to milltary, effort is to persuade the French gov- basis upon which England could again join France and Belgium in a joint note seeking to have Germany abandon passive resistance. The British government never ac- qulesced in the military occupation of the Ruhr. The German contention is that even if Berlin, as France desires, rescinded its orders for passive re- sistance the Ruhr warkers in the oc- cupied region would continue their resistance. The idea is that amnesty in the Ruhr might lead to abandonment of resistence. but the difficulty is that Premier Poincare, by dropping his military measures, would he admit- ting failure of the occupation to achieve the desired results. If this.difficulty could be surmount- ed, it is thought it might be ecasier to reach an allied conference, includ- ing Germany. The suggestion is made by some of the British papers that the impasse presents an excellent oppor- tunity for intervention by Washing- ton TUPBRAIDS SOCIALISTS.

Special Dispatch to The Btar. RICHMOND, Va., June 13.—An agent from the State Department, Washington, is here to make an in- vestigation into the alleged confilct in the claims of Col. Charles F. Z. Carl- cristi, who has been for seven years Interned in Venezuela, where his American passports were said to have been taken up when he undertook to return to this country. The records at Washington and those here do not agree, the papers filed in Washington containing the allegation that the mother of Caricristi declares he was not born in this country, as he claims. Col. Carlcristt has been engaged in the fight to establish his citizenship for many years. He says certain government officlals in Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and other states have tried fo take his life, and that his private papers were taken through the instrumentality of offi- cers implicated in gigantic frauds perpetrated against the government. He s the owner of ofl lands in Venezuela, and s anxious to come here to arrange for the development of these properties. He is an expert mining engineer and geologist, has done much work for the government and in the Mexican troubles, was a strong supporter of Huerta. When the ited States took a hand, he left that country and went to Southl America. Father Is Remembered. Many persons here recall the father of Col. Caricristi, but it remains to be seen if any can recall the son. In a letter sent here he says that the pa- pers in Washington, purporting to have been slgned by his mother, are forgerics. He claims that had he been born elsewhere than in Amer- lea the fact that his father was a naturalized citizen would not serve to keep him out of the country. He Was T8 "aTiong Time a Tesident of Richmond. He has sent several letters to of- ficlals in Washington demanding passports. Col. Caricrist! has writ- ten a good deal regarding the “Mex- Tex Loot Syndicate,” as he terms the men who, he alleges, have defrauded the government, and he has given the names of many. He tells of immense herds of cattle being driven from Mexico into the United States and of the sale of arms and ammunition to the warring factions of that state and of “repeated attempts” to murder him. iio says that because of the knowl- edge he has of officlal corruption | along the Mexican border the meni involved have lodged many and falsel reports ainst him in W ington. | and he says that when he was denled ! his rights he sent a letter to Presi- dent Harding, demanding that his ation be investigated, after he et redress’ by appeals | many officials and members of Congress.
