We sincerely hope that the public spirited citizens of the District, through providing the required funds. will per- mit the committee to maintain the| pace it has recently set. i Agrees With Capper. “I am very much in agreement with Senator Capper, when he recently said. “If anything ever was worth fighting for, it is national representation for the District of Columbia.'” ‘Mr. Murphy's letter of follows, in full: “It is indeed a pleasure for me as the president of the Washington Board of Trade to formally advise you that at & recent meeting of our board of directors $500 was appropriated for the work of the Oitizens’ Joint Committee on National Representation for the Distriet of Columbia. Our check for $280 is transmitted herewith and the remainder is avallable upon your call. Desire Americanisation. “You, being the chairman of the Board of Trade committee on national representation, hardly need assurance from me that we are very much in earnest 1n our desire for what you have 80 well termed ‘the Americanizing of the Washingtonian.’ Repeatedly at our well attended meetings have we recorded our firm belief in the reason- ableness and the justice as well as the absolute necessity for voting representa- tion in Congress and the electoral col- lege and the right to sue and be sued in the Federal courts. 'he opening of headquarters and the enlarged scope of the work of the joint committee encourage us to believe that we are approaching the goal. We sin. cerely hope that the public-spirited citi- vens of the District, through providing the required funds, will permit the com- mittee to maintain the pace it has re- cently set. “I am very much in agreement with Senator Capper when he recently said: “If anything ever was worth fighting for, it is national representation for the District of Columbia.’ “The joint committee of which you are the honored head is rendering most valiant service to the District people, and it is up to us citizens generally to back you to the limit with our influence and our money.” transmittal | CIVIL WAR STOPS AS CHINA SUBMITS CASE TO LEAGUE trofy’ Hankow, quoting sources usually , saserted reports had widely circulated that the Nation- had bribed the Kuominchun to fighting. is Teport said it was generally be- Hevéd that Chiang Kai-Shek, during his Srecent trip to Honan, had suc 3 “through Qen Hai-Shan, erneor of Shansi Province, in bribing Feng Yu-Hslang, head of the Kuomin- chun, to withdraw his troops in retu: for 10,000,000 Mexican dollars ($5,000,- 000), ‘THis dispa ali minechun commander $8,500,000, for which Feng and Yen had agreed to cease hostilities. Soong’s Visit Is Cited. Jupanese advices pointed out that the recent hurried visit to Honan Province last week oi T. V. Soong, finance min- ister of the Nationalist government, had been taken as circumstantial evidence bearing out the truth of the bribery reports. With tle cessation of fighting in Cen- tral China the principal theater of in- ternal warfare now is Kwangtung Prov- ince; where the disaffected ‘“Ironsides Division,” which recently withdrew from the Nationalist army, and a force of rebels from Kwangsi Province are a vancing toward Canton. Recent dit patches said negotiations for a settle- ment of this trouble also were proceed- ing. Nanking advices last night said, however, that Chiang planned to send more troops southward to oppose the rebels. Japanese advices received in Shanghal also asserted that “big scale” financing also was going on with a view to brin ing about a settlement of the Kwang- tung trouble in a manner similar to the Alleged bribery methods used on the Kuominchun. Reports from Manchuria, invaded from both east and west by Russian tToops as the result of the controversy over the Chinese Eastern Rallway, were meager. ‘Tokib advices sald an official Russian communique was broadcast from Kha- barovak, Siberia, today declaring that “further punitive measures” against the Chinese might be considered necessary. A dispatch from Harbin to the Kuo- min News Agency, organ of the Na- tionalist government, said the situation at Khailar, Western Manchuria, re- mained obscure because of -interrupted communication since Sunday. It was believed, however, that the Chinese defensive forces continued to hold Khallar, although the civillans had evacuated the city. The message said Soviet troops subjected- the city | to & terriffic bombardment Sunday night, inflicting heavy losses in life and property. ‘Wireless advices from Tsitsthar, Man- churia, reported that Chinese forces were pre| g to launch a counter- attack against Chalainor, which was taken reeently by the Russians.

The document is subject to approval by the principal governments to be represented in the second Hague conference scheduled for January. This fallure to publish the agreement led to reports that it contained some unexpected provisions. It was known that some of the sharpest clashes of opinion in the bank organization com mittee’s sessions came during the dis- cussions of certain passages of this special trust accord. Agreement Withhel The international bank organization committee, headed by Jackson E. Reynolds, president of the First Na- tional Bank of New York, drew up and i signed three documents—the institu- tion's charter, its statutes and the spe- | cial trust agreement. At the close of its | sittings the @oup issued for publication | the text of the charter and statutes, but withheld the trust agreement on the ground that the governments eon- cerned had not yet had opportunity to study the document. Study of the full text shows that, in eneral, the Reynolds experts followed | the suggestions made by the Young | committee. The provisions, howeve |nical in form. The printed text in English fills 14 pages. The sections of the agreement relat- . ing to the issuance and marketing of reparation bonds are of especial inter- | est to America at this time, because of | the recent strengthening of the New York bond market, with jts promise that that market will be able to ab- |sorb bigger blocks of reparation bonds than appeared likcly at the time when the Young committee completed its work last June.
