'y 1d compensation for dymage or loss in respect thereof USSIANS LEAD VIOLATION OF SOVEREIGNTY. The Russians contended in their renty that they could not restore full ownér tt bee AR ship of property to foreign na- js without violating their internal janty. In support of their argu- , they cited the abolition of Slagery tn the United Sta’ when there was no compensation to slav owners, and the American Prohibition law, making no compensation to ownérs of liquor stocks, They re- ferred also to certain cases that have arisen in the British Empire. The Soviet delegates accept com- peneation in principle, provided ite form be open to discussion and negotiations. The committee of seven experts will endeavor to solve this difficulty by getting down to practi- cal ¢ases, the important problem of lussian courts and juridical guarantees, In therend it is hoped to make a gencral treaty with Russia, of which recog- nition of the Soviet Government would be « feature. An English representative said to- day the United States naturally was free-to do what she pleased about the treaty which it was hoped to prepare ateGenoa, In this connection, in an- swer to © question, the English Spokesman said there was no objec- tiom.to Ambassador Childs having ac- ces@to the meetings of the Sub-Com- mittee on Russian Affairs if he wished toattend in order to keep his country infepmed of the committee's proceed- ings. GERMAN REPLY IS LONGER THAN RUSSIAN, ‘The German note is longer than that fram the Allies, and begins by ac- knowledging ith painful surprise” the, protest received, which Is con- sidered undeserved. The note then repeats what Dr. Rathenau, German Foreign Minister, has stated on sev- eral occasions—that nogotiations for the,conclusion of the Russo-German treaty had begun long ago, were known to have been In progress by alntthe European Governments, and hadilately been suspended out of det- erence to the conference. But the exclusion of Germany from theenegotiations held by the Alli with the Russians at the Villa de Albertis gave to the German delega- tim ‘the impression that the Allies were trying to conclude arrange- ments with the Soviet Government without German participation, per- haps to Germany's detriment, AY a certain moment, perhaps through misunderstanding, the Ger- mart! delegation received the Impres- sion that the Allies were about to con- cla@ an agreement with the Russians. ‘Tirefore, the Russo-German negoti- ations were resumed and’ resulted in tie signing of the treaty on Easter Subday, The German delegation believes this trétity does not violate the spirit of the conference and, indeed, contributes to iteswupreme aim—the pacification of the reconstruction of WPurope.

This gives $200,000,000 which Mr. Mellon had already counted in before making his statement of a $481,000,000 deficit. So if $105,000,000 is used for soldier bonus purposes the total deficit for the fiscal year 1928 will be $589,000,000. ‘As to this deficit, Congress does not have to face it before the December sion this ye: That means . the Congressional elections will be out of the way.

The decision, of the Appellate Divi- sion, written by Justice Samuel! Greenbaum, sets out at length the history of the litigation, It appears that prior to May, 1921, the Standard Engraving Company conformed to a union rule fixing the minimum selling price of photo engravings. An at- tempt legally to abrogate this. rule had been defeated by a court decision that photo engravings did. not come within the scope of the Donnelly Anti-Trust law preventing restraint in trade, because photo~ engravings are not commodities in common use. The Legislature of 1921 amended the law to bring photo-engravings within the purview of the Donnelly Anti-Trust Law. The standard En- graving Company ‘thereupon notified the union-that it would disregard the minimum selling base and proceeded to sell below the mininyum fixed: by the union, The notification" was met by @ threat of @ strike, which led, the Standard Engraying Company to ap- ply for the injunction. / BATTLE IN SENATE IS BEGUN 10 SAVE NAVAL OIL LANDS = résponded the” witness down.
