Even the refiresentatives of the world press were denied admission to the peace plaa The nowspapermen insisted upon entering the ize grounds, presenting their protest per- sonally to the Dutch Foreign Minis- (er, who refused to admit them to the opening session and said they should not have been admitted to the palace grounds, as the sessions are all to be secret. The visiting delegates appeared to be helpless in the wituation. Many of them expressed annoyance over the attitude of the Dutch Government, which, as ho: apparently decided to exert every effort to avoid publicity American correspondents called the attention of the Dutch officials ‘to the fact that it was an American who built the palace and that Americans did not expect such treatment on premises which Andrew Carnegie made possible. Apparently overawed by the appear- ance of forty or fifty newspaper men and women, representing American, British, French, South American and various European jouPhals, who re- fused to take any statements froin subordinates, the Foreign Office at- taches and policemen finally admitied the correspondents for an audience with Foreign Minister Van Karne- beek, who declared they were not s1 posed to enter the peace palace should not regard their entrance to- day as a precedent, Chief interest centres in the har- monization of the attitudes of Eng- lund, France and Italy on how $0 ap- proach the Soviet delegation officials| ly, for France shows a disposition to adhere tenaciously to her Genoa demand for suitable guarantees from the Bolsheviki before undertaking to renew official relations with Russia. France objects to the Soviet mem- orandum, submitted to the Genoa-Con- ference on May 11, which attacked the capitalistic systems of the other countries and charged these nations with doing many things—confiscating property, for example—equally dras¢ tic with the Bolshevik measures to which they objected. The french would like to see this memorandum withdrawn by the Soviets before of- ficial pourpariers with the Russian delegates are again inaugurated. Great Britain and Italy apparently are ready to pursue a more concilin- tory policy.

The President and Senator Lodge, who returned yesterday from a ten- days’ trip to Massachusetts, went over the legislative situation briefly and both agreed that every effort should be made to pass the tariff bill at the earliest possible date. It was said to be their joint opinion that In- tervention of the bonus bill would cause great delay to the tariff bill. ecctenetliiimas GOLDEN MYTH WINS GOLD CUP RACE Flamboyant Second and Ballyheron Third in British Classic.

CONGRESS MAY BAR| ENTRY OF ANY SHIP Would Remove Basis of Lasker Plea That Alien Rivalry Forces Rum Sales. By David Lawrence. (Specjal Correspondent of The Eve- ning World.) WASHINGTON, June 15 (Cop¥- right).—Congress may probibit all ships, whether they fly the flag of foreign countries or the United States, from entering any port of this coun- try if liquor is carried aboard, sealed or otherwise. This is likely to be the upshot of the quarrel which hes arisen over the practice of the United States Shipping Board in permitting the sale of intoxicants outside the three- mile limit in order to meet the com- petition of foreign ships engaged in the passenger-carrying trade. ‘The Shipping Board insists there is no law or constitutional provision which to-day prevents an American ship from selling liquor after, the three-mile limit has been passed. In stead of arguing the legality or iMe- gality of the practice, which alone could be determined finally by a Su- preme Court decision, members of Congress have begun introducing bills to proyide that the proposed ship subsidy shall not apply to any ships selling Wquor at sea. Such a pro- posal, it is declared by Shipping Board officials, would be suicidal to the American merehant marine. Thoy Say no amount of subsidy would en- able American ships to compete under these circumstances against foreign vessels. In‘ order to earry on a profitable trade and to get a welf-balanced mer. chant marine, useful in war as well large ships, known in “capital ships, are necessary, as well as fréight ca riers, ‘These capital ships require consid- erable passenger traffic annually to keep them going. If foreign ships can sell liquor outside the three-mile limit they will admittedly get most of the passenger trade. To discriminate against Amertcan ships while permitting foreign vessels touching American ports to open thelr bara at sea is regarded in Con- gress and elsewhere as inequitable, and the only way to prevent it would be to forbid foreign ships to touch American territory if they have liquor aboard. This might tend to help American vessels to some extent, but atready it is pointed out that the advantage would work in the direction of Britis! vessels, for they would close thei bars after touching at Halifax, trans- port all thelr Hquor to shore and con tinue to New York without intoxi- cants aboard so as to comply with the suggested port regulations. But in order to make a fast trip across many vessels under foreign flag would hesitate to make a stop a! Canadian ports because of the time that-would be lost in the roundabout voyage. In the transatlantic trade. there- fore, shipping officials think such a proposal would enable Americun ves sels to compete on more or less equal terms with foreign ships. In the Pacific, however, the fear is that America’s merchant marine would suffer, Vancouver, British Columbia, is not far from Seattle; for instance, and the /American tourist would be tempted to take ‘his boat at Vancouver instead of a Vii States port. When the matter comes up in Con- gress, therefore, Pacific Coast mem- bers who are at present active in try~ ing to get a ship subsidy bill through will find themselves confronted by a practical situation which has little ta) do with the merits of Prohibition Senator Jones of Washington, one of the Prohibition leaders in Congress, will have to decide a ticklish point. “PERFECT 38” CRY LURES WOMEN TO DIET REFORM West Essex, N. J., Club Will Admit Only. Those Who Attain That Size. “The Perfect Thirty-eight Club” has been launched in West Essex, Na 1 Only perfect thirty-cights are eligible. \ The result is that several classes have been organized with weekly meetings arranged fpr a checkup on weight and diets as well as tape lines. “The Perfect Thirty-eight" grew out of the annual fall dress- making class and an address by Mra. Catherine Greibel, Stute clothing expert, at the Caldwell, N. J., M. B. Churehr in which she declared 90 per cent. of the women could become perfect thirty- eights or even better with proper diet. As for herself, Mra, Greibel said, she would rather do without eat- ing thap become stout. Dieting |. is not a, hardship and strict care in diet was not necessary after a person had once reduced. Mrs. Greibel algo declared, inci- dentally, that “t's silly to think women are going@to wear long dresses. Tho average woman should have the hem of her skirt at least mine inches from the foor, and girls should wear skirts even shorter." eS The truth is that many of tho spokesmen for the Prohibition move- ment concede that the Shipping Board has the law on {ta side in the present controversy and that an American ship outside the three-mile limit is not subject to the enforcement of the Prohibition laws or any other statutes of the United States, except thosv which apply to the registry of ships, treatment of crewa and other matters specifically covered by statute. ‘This is a moot point and there have been a string of decisions on it in the courts for the last century. The Shipping Board points out that if an American skip 4s American territory it would be immune from seizure dur- ing war when the United States is neutral and .that nobody could be taken off an American ship at sea AS a matter of fact, the United States in the farfous controversy with Great Britain during the Civil War asserted the right to search a British ship and remove passengers. If a ship were American territory, it would be an attack against the sovereignty of the United States. During the recent war, American vessels outside the three-mile limit were subject to capture and diversion from their course, and the American Government never contended that an American ship was American terri- tory. But Congress will not wait for a decisiomon these points. It has the power to refuse funds to American ships which carry liquor. Such a pro- ubition is constitutional. So the fight will be waged on that phase of the question, and untess the defenders of the present practice succeed in con vincing Congress that serious damage would be done to the merchant ma- rine by attempting to extend Prohibi- on to the seas, some provisions will surely be* written into law forbidding any vessels, American or foreign, from touching American ports if liquor is carried, The difficulty will be in enforcing the provision with respect to foreign ships, because search wiil be neces- sary when foreign ships arrive, and there would be nothing to prevent a foreign vessel from recelving a sup- ply-of liquor from a tug outside the three-mile limit, said tug being of collier size, perhaps, and being stocked up at Bermuda or some other nearby foreign port and timed so as ta meet the foreign ves- sels after they leave Américan ports. arses asa PORTUGUESE TRAVBATLANTEC FLYBRS NEARING DESTINATUWN, RIO JANEIRO, Brazil, June 15 ({Associated Press).—The Portuguese transatlantic aviators, Capts.

LONDON, June 1) (Associated Press).—The ~ constitution for the Irish Free State, in the shaping of which unexpectedly good progress has been made, will be made public, to-- morrow, it was announced by Win- ston Churchill, the Colonial Secretary, in the House of Commons to-day. The constitution conforms with thé Anglo- Irish treaty, Mr. Churchill sata. The amended draft came before the British signatories to the Anglo-Irish Treaty to-day for final congideration. Full approval is looked for in view of the staterhent last night, that the draft had been completed in a manner generally regarded as satisfactory to all the parties concerned in the nego- tlations here. Viscount Midleton's cectaration that he and his colleagu-s of the Southern Unionists’ delegation had concluded their part in the Colontal Office discussions implies satisfac tion with the assurances given re- garding the position of the minorities in Southern Ireland. Arthur Griffith the chief Irish delegate, probably will leave for Dublin after a final talk with Winston Churchill, Secretary for the Celonies. Secretary Churchill's promised statement in the House of Commons to-day is not expected to enter into any detailed explanation of the form of the new constitution, as It Ig um- derstood the document must be pre- sented to the Irish electors before it can be published here. ——- IRISH ELECTIONS ARE NOT AFFECTED BY AGREEMENT DUBLIN, June 15 (Associated Preas)\—It is anticipated in some that the new constitution will be published ‘here to-morrow, which day. It ts not thought likely, however, that the re- sults will be influenced, as the terms of the constitution have not been, an issue. ‘The continued speculation in the Prospects of the independent candi- dates for seats in the Southern Par- liament is tempered by the uncer- tainty as to how many of them will go to the polls. No withdrawals have been armounced, and neither the shooting of Farmer Greene nor the attack on Darrell Figgis has pro- duced any sign of weakening or fear of intimidation among the opponents of the Sinn Fein panel There is particular interest in the course of action of Eamon De Valera whether he will become a member of the Coalition Government and what he will do about subscribing to the treaty, as required if he accepted a seat in the Cabinet.
