After plans for such special treatment seemingly became def- inite, M.

M. Tchitcherin has always made it clear that Russia prefers to deal sep- arately with the various nations, and he explained this afternoon that when Rus- sia consented-to come to Genoa it was in the helief that the inviting powers wauld live up to the terms of the Can- nes resolutions and not try to bring Rus. sian sovereignty into question.

P.)—The American Red ‘Cross, after eight years of work, ‘during, which it expended more than $400,0000,000 will close its main activities -in’ Europe at ‘the end of June. This _announcement was made today by Dr. Ross Hill, director of forelgn op- erations, who has just returned from a two months' survey of ‘Europe, ex- tending from Warsaw to Constantino- ple. Z : Dr. ‘Hill said he believed there no longer was any need for American re- let effort in ‘the war-affected countries. The welfare’ of the peoples of Europs were better than'at any time since the war. due largely to American aid. “The American people,” Dr. Hill con- tinued, “may feel proud of their achievements in restoring the heaith and fmorale of the distressed populations ¢ Europe. /Their aid has left an en- during impression and miilions of grate- ful hearts. vidual ‘groups may need ‘assistance, the typical work of the Americai relief or- ganizationz now can 'be ended with end- ed with credit to themselves. “I find no._tendency among peoples or govérnments to complain of our with- drawal, but, on the other hand, every ccuntry requests that a certain perso nel be permitted to remain temporarii in advisory capacities in order to muke more certain the continuance of . Red Cross work by the governments them- selves. The junior Red Cross will con- tinue in certain countries. In such cases the work will be done in co-opera- tion with the League of Red Cross So- cleties.” £ PLENIPOTENTIARIES OF CHILE - AND PERU TO MEET TODAY ‘Washington, May 14 (By 'the A.

COMMENT ON PACKERS’ AND STOCKYARDS ACT ‘Washington, May 14.—Secretary Wale face reiterated tonight, in a statement commenting on the recent decision of the supreme court upholding the validity of the packers’ and stockyards act, that the department of agriculture did not intend to act arbltrarily in enforcing that law. “We, shall not assume that men are rascals until they have been proved to be such,” he said. “We take it for granted that the various people who are under the supervision of this law will be glad to co-operate with us i eHminatific any abuses or unfair practices which. inten- tionally or otherwise, may have grown up as this great industry has developed.” Satisfactory co-operation from the packers and owners of stockyards has been afforded the department in the past, Mr. Wallace said, and “now that the su- preme court has held that commission merchants, traders and other people who operate in the yards come under the act, I hope we may have the same sort of co- o:)erval!un from these marketing agen- cles.” STOCK OF GASOLENE NOW AT A NEW HIGH RECORD ‘Washington, May 14.—A . new. high record for the national stock of gaso- line, increases fn the price of which have been ordered investizated by the senate, was established in Aprll, ascord.
