Ingersoll in the manufacture of the “dohar watch,” witnessed the court transaction Hé found consolation in the statement of his attor- ney that he would appeal to the .United States district and circuit courts to an- nu the sale on the ground that it was an “improvident one.” ‘I ghare with Mr. Wickersham,” said Referee Townsend. “the Tegrets that tses large properties are to be sold at this price, but there are only theoretical argu- ments opposing it. This is a practical, hard financial situation and usually the assets of large companies when the reach the bankruptey courts, are nothing more than ‘white elephants.’ " Mr. Wickersham sought delay, declaring that the firm was negotiating a reorg- anization plan with a large watch com- pany to consolidats with the Ingersolls. Undér this plan. he sald, the ecreditors would be frotected and the business re- vived, He said tha Watethury Clock company, which had manufactured many of the watches sold by the Ingersoll com- pany had failed to continue its supply to the Ingersoll company and that a large damage suit would be started to recover iosses in saues.

The loan, he said, rested upon an entirely different basis from the aliied loans and no interest had been paid, be- cause Austria lacked income sufficient to meet her own government expenses. In his attack on the resolution Repre- sentative Garner, Texas, ranking demo- crat on the ways and means committee, declared there was no information to be laid before congress respecting the need of postponement.

I, for one, object to the United States becoming the almoner of the world.” “Many members discussed the resolu- tion, and attimes the political viewpoint Was uppermost. 4 Represenfative Garrett, the dlamocratic leader, and . Chairman’ Fordney of the ways and means committee verged on a clash when the former intimated that Mr. Fordney on one committee occasion had attacked ‘Woodrow Wilson. Mr. Fordney, however, denied it.

Dublin, March 20.—(By the A, P.)— The convention on Surigay of revolting members of the Irish Republican army debated the question of declaring a mili- tary dictatorship, but defarred action thereon, says the correspondent here of the London Star in a dispatch to his pa- per..

P.)— The fate of the resolution of confidence approving the actions of the recent meet- ing of the supreme council at Cannes re- garding the Genoa conference, which Premier Lioyd George will introduce in the house of commons next Monday as part of the British governments pro- gram at Genoa, seemingly depends large- 1y on whether it will secure the suport of the independent liberals and laborites. It is mot quite certain whether thesc groups will accept the program, although it is considered they could hardiy vote against the Genoa policy, and the resolu- tion avoids the delicate question of con- fidence in Mr, Lioyd George as leader.

OF FOREIGN BORN ABLE TO SPEAK ENGLISH Teyhinzfon Mivch 2%—Hlevin par cent. of the foreign born white population in the United States, ten years of age and older, according to the 1920 census, was unable to speak Erglish, the census bu- reau announced today. The number was 1,488,948, out of a total foreign-born pop- ulation more than 10 years of age of 13,- 497,856, These figures compared with 2,- 953.011 nor-Iglish-speaking foreign- born residents. or 22.8 per cent. of the to- tal, enumerated in the 1929 census. The bureau attributed thé decrease to several causes, citing that many immi- grants who could not speak English in 1910 had since learned the language, died or returned to their native countries, that the number who could nat speak English arriving during the last decade was small- er than in the previous ten years, and that a majority of these had come to thiz coun- try prior to Augast 1, 1914, and there- fre had had time to learn the language before the census was taken BELIEVES DEMENTED WOMAN KIDNAPPED IDA KRAMER Riverside, N.

(Press Claims Refugees Fail to numbering | political refugees to show }Agiiétiolinflenfiany Show Proper Appreciation of German Hospitality. Berlin, March 29.—(By The A. P.)— The Berlin newspapers toddy joitied hands in demidnding that in the lght of last night's attemp: tipon the life of Paul M. Milukoff, former minister of foreign affairs in the Russian provision- 4l government, Russians of all political parties be forced to desist from agita- tion.. The newspapers declared Russian monarchists must be checked as well as the bolshevists. The muf erer of Viadimir Naboukoft, who sacrificed his life to save Professor Milukoff, were first taken into custody by the officials in charge of criminal cases, but today they were tramsferred to the political sectiof. The German press says Germany is willing to have Russians conduct theatres and engawe in legitimate social, artistic and educational gctivities, but they must put a ban on politics. The recent raids upon all night cafes to round up foreign- ers without proper identification papers have shown a high percentage of Rus- sians, many of whom could not explain their presence in Berlin and were sus- Pected of being agitators of various sorts. 4 * Russian moparchists in Germany have been especially active and resentful since the calling of the Genoa confer- ence, as they fear there may be gener- al recognition of the soviet governg°nt and consequent frustration of the mon- archistic plans. The recent decision of the Leipsic su- Dpremie court that Soviet Russia had & right to sell confiscated furs because the soviets' seal was placed upon them had intensified anti-bolshevist feeling among Russians throughout central Europe, who fear that other governments will take the same.stand and ratify this posi- tion at Genoa, thus making it impossi- ble for Russians to recover lands and factories seized by the soviet govern- ment. «Many former members of the im- perial quma are assoclated with the monarehistic colony in Berlin, which con- sists largely of constitutional monarehists who are bitterly opposed to the absolute monarchistic group which is in the as- cendancy among Russians in other European capitals. It is estimated that 800,000 Russians are Germany, chiefly in Berlin and in Baitic ports, but there are also many in Munich, whencs Professor Milukoff's assaflants came. The murder of Talat Pasha and the Milukoft episode are cited by Berlin newspapers as proof of the failure of proper ap- preciation of German hospitality and the necessity for checking secret Russian monarchistic conferences in Munich, Ber- lin and elsowhere. The newspapers say Germany s weary of being the “‘cockpit” for refugees who have -been unwilling to fight their political battles on their own soil. Some of the most radical Russien and German monarchistics have been.try- ing to make it appear thatthe monarch- istic groups of the various central Europ- ean countries aré co-ordinating their movements, but this is generally regard- ed as imaginary. Some German newspapers intimate that the military activities of General Baron ‘Wrangel in Belgrade are lending much encouragement to the monarchistic Rus- sians. Reports that British firfms and those of other nationalities haye receatly sizn- ed large timber, mining and manufac- turing concessions with Russi and will endeavor to fortify their rights taiough the Genoa conference, thus preveuting former owners from recovering thex properties, have incensed Russian refu- geed In central Eurone, who denounce this alleged action as nothing short of an effort to legalize theft.
