Bachman by the coast guard cutter Tampa last October was fllegal and in which he ordered the dismissal of the government's libels asking for- fetture of the v I and her cargo, malke sales 40 miles from the Massa- | chusetts shore In order to be im- mune from seizure, For Judge Morton's decision was based on the fact-that officers of the government, in order to secure evi- dence that liquor was being sold from the. Marjorie E. Bachman as she lay 21 miles off Gloucester, used a sea aled capablp of making a speed of 40 miles an heur in their first trip out to her. Under the provisions of the liguor treaty with Great Britain a vessel flying the flag of that coun- try may be selzed if she is found | #clling liquor within an hour's sail off | the American coast.

Herriot, however, is still hold- iing out against the British sugges- tion that the Germans should be represented in the conference. It is sald in political circles that the French government would even he reluctant to give the Germans a hearing at the conferente, as it wishes to confine such a meeting to an exchange of views among the Alliok. This exchange, it is believed by the French, could he better effected by diplomatic communication which would ohviate the danger of an ap- parent disagreement during the nec- cessary period of ironing out the inevitable differences. The French contention is that there is nothing to discuss with the Germans regarded the evacuation of the Cologne area; that what exists is simply a sitnation which the Allles must consider among - themselves and decide whether German's atti- tude on disarmament justifies aban- {donment of the territory which the Irench hold as a guarantee of se- curity against unprévoked aggres- sion. It is conceded in French circles that a meecting with the Germans might be useful to make clear to them what the Allies had determin- ed to do after an agreement was reached, but it is held that it would be disastrous to I'rench security to accept a conference in the course of whicly the Allies might appear in the presence of Germany, to be in disagreement among themselves.

RELATIONS PROGRESS NORMALLY Counsul General at New York City Says There Has Been a Tem- porary Deviation, Boston, Feb. 28.—~Hirosi Saito, consul general of Japan at New York city, in a speech prepared for deliv- ery today before the foreign policy| ¢ association declared that American- Japanese relatlons afe agah taking “the highway of traditional romun- tic friendship from which we have temporarily and slightly deviated.” Mr. Saito expressed joy in the ru- mor that a second disarmament con- ference may be held soon. He char- acterized the first conference as a “master stroke of American diplo- macy,” and eaid that its provisions had been faithfully carried out by the signatory powers, “If the second conference is held,” he said, “what Japan will have to say on particular subjects of discus- sions, 1 am net capable to predict. But of one thing, T am certain and that is, that she will again place all her cards face up on the conference table."” The total exclusion of Japanecse immigration as now enacted, le said, was ‘“unnccessary and uncalled for from the practical point of view.”” He expressed confidence; however, that some solution could be found, and urged that congreas allow Japan a quota of 100 so as to change Japan's sentiment toward the United States. All sources of grievances would be craticaied, he said, if the right of naturalization were extended to the Japanese. DAWES GETTING READY zen In Office In Chicago—M Longworth Going To Washington.
