KiTCHIN VEXED
BY REPUBLICAN
ECONOMY CLAIM
3ourbon Leader Denies Bil
lion and Half Was Saved by
Eliminating "Democratic
Extravagance."
Washington, June 27. Statements
of republican leaders in the house
that their party had saved the peo
ole $1,500,000,000 by eliminating
"democratic extravagance" from
supply hills passed by the house this
session, were denounced on the
floor Friday by Representative
Kitchin, democrat, of North Caro
lina, as "masterpieces of political
deception."
The former democratic house lead
er discussed at some length a state
ment given out last week by Re
publican Leader Mondell and de
clared "it was rich in false impres
sions, wrong inferences and bald
misstatements of fact."
Passed Needed Measures.
"During the last session, the dem
ocratic house passed every needed
war measure and public supply bill.
This enactment was not completed,
but why? Their defeat was caused
solely by the detestable, indecent
filibuster made by the republicans in
the senate during the closing days
of the session.
"Now the republicans come and
say their efficient work has made
passage of the bills possible."
Taking up each of the supply
measures in detail, Mr. Kitchin de
clared the reductions which had
been made in them were due not to
republican economy, but to demo
cratic efficiency in running the va
rious departments.
"It is said that the republicans
saved $400,000,000 in the army bill
alone," he said, "whe'n in reality
they didn't save the people a single
penny in that measure, nor in any
other. The $400,000,000 was made
possible by the War department's
splendid work in carrying forward
demobilization faster even than any
one considered possible last spring."

BRITAIN WILLING
DEVALERA SHALL
REMAIN IN U. S.
Has No Objection to Sale of
Irish Republic Bonds to
Americans.
By ROBERT WELLES RITCHIE.
Vnlveriial Service Staff Correspondent.
(Siteeiut Cable Dispatch.)
London, June 27. "The duration
of Professor De Valera's visit in
America depet'ds wholly upon Mr.
De Valer himself."
This somewhat cryptic answer to
my question as to how the British
Koverpmeiit proposed to act toward
ti;e Irifh president's program was
r.:i('.e by an official qualified to kn jw
the sentiment and the precedents of
the British office.
Though this official refused to al
low mention of his name, I gathered
from his- conversation that the Brit
ish government is not consider ng
any request for the deportation ot
De Valera as long as he does not
follow the tactics of Mrs. Sheahy
Skeffington and preach what the
British government considers dan
gerous sedition or attempt actively
to enlist recruits for armed rebel
lion in Ireland.
"He may sell as many bond1; of
and for the Irish republic as he
wishes," the official continued. "I
understand lots of people in your
country are investing in wildcats
just at present."
All London newspapers carry dis
patches detailing De Valera's activi
ties in America, featuring with
pained surprise the report that hc
New York aldermen will accord
him the freedom of the city.

were to refuse to sign the treaty
unless some reservation was permit
ted as to Japan's sovereignty over
the Shantung peninsula, acquired
by Germany from China under the
treaty of 1897.
These instructions have never
been changed and accordingly :he
announcement of the Chinese dele
gation was not surprising to offi
cials here. Until very recently,
however, it was considered here as
possible that China might sign the
treaty, in view of private assurances
said to have been given her repre
sentatives that Japan's tenure ot
Shantung would not be long. China,
it also had been believed, probably
would assent to the treaty and leave
the Shantung question to be worked
out by the league of nations.
Failure of China to sign the
treaty, officials explained, probably
will exclude it from the league of
nations, including certain rights of
redress under that covenant, as well
as work to its detriment in the re
sumption of trade. ,

HAYS PLANS TO
HEAL SPLIT ON
LEAGUE FIGHT
G. 0. P. Chairman Favors Cov
enant Amended to Meet Ob
jections Made by Oppon-v
ents of Scheme.
By JAMES P. NOURSE.
(Staff Correspondent Universal Service.)
Washington. June 27. With
Chairman Will H. Hays of the na
tional republican committee, in the
role of a pacifier, republican sena
tors today started a movement to
bring about united action by the
party organization in the fight
against the league of nations.
Hays came down to Washington
at the urgent request of several of
the republican senators who felt
that his counsel was necessary to
heal the split in the senate organiza
tion and to compose the differences
which are tending to prevent har
mony in the league fight.
He spent the entire afternoon yes
terday at the capital in conference
with senators, among whom were
Lodge, Knox, Curtis, New, Watson,
Colt and McCormick. The confer
ences vfere resumed this morning
and will continue for several days,
as Hays ptens to remain in Wash
ington for almost a month.
No Settled Program.
Hays has no settled program as to
what the policy of the republican
party on the league issue should be.
He is firm in his stand, that it should
not be made a partisan question.
If he has his way, the republican
national organization will take no
action along this line, despite the
demand of Senator Borah and oth
ers,' that the party should declare
itself irrevocably against the league.
Hays' purpose, as revealed in his
conference with senators today, is
to bring the republican senators to
gether on some plan of action that
will lead to ratification of the league
of nations covenant with amend
ments or reservations to suit the
radical opponents on the entire
league scheme. It may be the Root
plan or some other plan, but the
definite object which Hays hopes to
achieve is unity of action, and the
presentation of a solid party front
on the league program.
Hays Favors League
Personally, Hays believes in and
hopes for the establishment of a
league of some kind that will insure
permanent peace. He believes that
the sentiment of the country is for
such a league and Hays has trav
eled a lot.
The idea in the back of Hays'
mind is that the republicans, by
amending and strengthening the
league covenant and removing the
objections raised against it, can pre
sent to the country as a better league
of nations then that which President
Wilson created a republican league
of nations which will be just the
kind the people want.
Irish Problem Now Rests
in Hands of Clemenceau
Paris, June 27. The delegation
here representing Irish societies in
the United States has been notified
that the Irish question so far as the
peace conference is concerned has
been left in the hands of Premier
Clemenceau, the president of the
conference.
The Irish commission from the
United States has established head
quarters here and will act in co
operation with the representatives
of the "Irish republic" as long as
the peace conference is in session.
L. F. Trigg, formerly executive sec
retary of the national labor board
in Washington, will be in charge of
the secretariat in Paris.
Kansas Winter Wheat Crop
Greatly Exceeds Forecast
Topeka, Kan., June 27. The
Kansas winter wheat crop, now be
ing harvested, was estimated at 229,
217,000 bushels in the monthly re
port issued today by J. C. Mohler,
secretary of the State Board of Ag
riculture. This is an increase of more than
11,000,000 bushels over Mohler's
May report and it is approximately
33,000,000 bushels greater than the
last federal monthly report.
Wilson to Send Another
Committee to Study Poland
Washington, June 27. President
Wilson advised the senate today,
through the State department, that
he was considering sending another
commission to Poland to investigate
reports of Jewish massacres. He
said a decision would be reached
after he had conferred at Paris with
Hugh Gibson, American minister to
Poland.
Stanley Yoakum Arrested

Denver, Colo., June 27. Stanley

TEAMSTERS GO
BACK TO WORK
FOR "FAIR" FIRMS
Strikers Comply With Request
Made by the Central La
bor Union.
Striking teamsters and truck driv
ers, employes of "fair" firms who
walked out In accordance with the
general strike order issued by their
local about 10 days ago, returned to
work yesterday and are again
operating vehicles of firms which
have conceded the demands of the
union. This step was taken in com
pliance with the order of the Cen
tral Labor union that the drivers re
sume work for the "fair" firms.
The nunber of men who returned
to work is estynated by union lead
ers at 500.
Wagons and trucks operated by
union men were again placarded
with "This Firm fir to Organized
Labor" cards.
By next Monday the strike will be
practically over, employers declare.
Strikers have been steadily return
ing to work during the last week.
Delivery service is in most cases
now normal. In a few instances lo
cal transportation is still somewhat
hampered.
Some employers contradicted the
statement made by Commissioner
Zimman that he was making good
progress in his effort to bring the
striking teamsters and truck drivers
and their employers together.
Henry Green, a driver for the
Fidelity Van and Storage Co., was
badly beaten yesterday at Eigh
teenth and Webster streets by a
man he declares was a picket for
the striking teamsters. Green was
taken tox the police station, where
his injuries were dressed by police
surgeons.

Hungarian Minister Says Com
munism Will Succeed as He
Foresees Class Wars
Throughout World.
Budapest, June 27. (By the Asso
ciated Press.) "The allied policy
toward Hungary should be one ot
non-interference in our internal af
fairs and the allies also should ra:sc
the blockade," Beta Kun, foreisr
minister of jthe present Hungarian
government, told the Associated
Press correspondent today in dis
cussing assertions that Hungary had
been interfering with the affairs '
the Austrian republic.
Minister Kun also expressed con
fidence that communism would suc
ceed in Hungary.
Resuming his discussion of the
reported friction with the Austrian
republic, he said:
"It is altogether untrue. Austria
is seeking to deceive the public so
that it may continue the domination
of Hapsburg capitalism. It is also
untrue that we bought guns and
rifles from the Italians.
"Our policy is peace. Premier
Lenine of Russia is not dictating
our internal policy. We are merely
following his idea that principles
should be altered to meet changing
circumstances."
"Yes, communism will succeed
here," he said in answer to a ques
tion. "We now are in a period of
transition, going back toward social
ism." Asked if Hungarians wanted com
munism, he said:
"The majority is passive, but the
minority is active. Anyway, it is
impossible for us to work under
capitalism even with the latter pas
sive, i
, "I know the Germans will.sign the
peace treaty and I am glad of it,
for it means a revolution in Ger
many. After such a peace capitalism
will be incapable of organizing pro
duction there. Nor would it py.
politically, to try to do so. Peac
will bring class war and revolutions
in other countries, as foreseen ty
Lenine, who is the greatest man in
the world."

people in America will approve

The length of the peace confer
ence is regarded, it is said, as bene
ficial on the whole, as the long dis
cussion brought about a fuller
understanding among the nations.
There is special pride in the fact
that the views of the American ex
perts usually prevailed, probably
because the United States had no
selfish interests involved in the
difficult questions settled. It is
also held that sinister influences
played comparatively little or no
part in the results of the confer
ence. Concerning the mandate of the
United States in Turkey, the presi
dent is known to hold that he had
no right to make any promises and
that the most he could do was to
present the subject to the people
at home.
One of the main reasons for thi
proposed American mandate ir

that it would keep Constantinople
