NEWS REVIEW OF CURRENT EVENTS Lithuania and Poland Fighting Over the Vilna Zone and the Raiiway Line. RUSSIA MAY EE INVOLVED Bonar Law's Policy of Hands Off in the Ruhr Sustained by Parliament French Organize Transport There Filibuster Against Ship Sub sidy Is Effective. By EDWARD VV. PICK ARD 0" I Y0 YOU think the senatorial filibusters are serving : the best interests of the Ameri ?" can public in preventing a vets I on tile ship subsidy bill, or are they only playing a sslfish po I litlcal game? C LITHUANIA and I'ohm.l Imvo start ed another little war of their own, which might conceivably di-aurb the so-called peace of mucli of Ku rojK'. Already the coiiriit h-n is so se rious that members of tl.e council of the League of Nations believe the league will be compelled to intervene. I llZ V IHI1H i OH I V i 1 U ,1 I .V Ul liJ.I U i tit frontier between the two countries, and in so doir.g it awarded to Poland a strip of territory that includes Vilna ami the very importan; Kovno-Vilna railv.ay. Lithuania was 'ounting on possession of this ru'l line to provide a coniiecf ion between lius-da and Kast 1'russia wbereb she could create a lot of commercial business tor her self and especially for me port of Meruel, which bad been given her after She seized it a few wceUs ago. More over, the Lithuanians were determined not to relinquish thel claim to Vilna. Therefore, when the l'oie-- undertook to take posM's.vioii of die Mrip in con troversy, the Lithuanians immediately started hostilities, ,,t lirst with '".ir regulars'" and then with their regular army, the claim bein ma le that the Poles were attempting to occupy ter ritory that was incon'tesiably Lithu anian. 1'roecedirig from skirmishes to real battles, the coiit!iet have re sulted in many casualties already, and by the middle of the week heavy ar tillery had been brought into action. Itussia is much disturbed by the af fair, and Foreign Minister Tehitcherin sent to bmh I'oland and Lithuania a note stating it was Russia's opinion that Lithuania was right in the contro versy and ottering Moscow's friendly assistance in settling the dispute. France is so tied up to I'oland, finan cially and otherwise, that her sympa thies and perhaps material assistance cannot but go to the I'oles. On Monday the British and French warships left the harbor of Memel. carrying the French troops that had garrisoned the district for to years. The award of Memel and the adjacent district to Lithuania is re garded as a diplomatic victory for Itnssla over the allies. The Lith uanians huve announced their inten tion of building n new railroad which will unite Russia am) Germany. They also expect a great deal of trade with America to pass through the port of Memel. THOUGH still con; ending that the French policy in the Ruhr is bad. the British government force., in par liament prevented the adoption 'd" the amendment to the address on the king's speech, calling for action bv the council of the League of Nations lo .submit the whole matter to a confer ence of experts in which America, it vas hoped, would participate. A vote sustaining the amendment would have meant the downfall of the ministry. Instead, the house voted :" to lb() to sustain Prime Minister Bonar Law's policy, of "hands off in the Ruhr." The premier said that intervention at the present time was impossible without destroying the entente; that to refer the matter of reparations to the league would arouse the hostility of France, and probably of Kelgium and Italy, against the league. Replying to Lloyd George's appeal to "get America in at all costs to help save France from the consequences of her folly," Mr. Ronar Law said there was "no word spoken or written by any representative of the American government which sug gests it is willing to intervene in quar rels in Europe." So far the French show no signs of desiring to he "saved'' by interven tion. It seemed last week that one of their greatest problems, the opera tion of the railways in the occupied region, was about solved. Though the British declined to aid directly in this, they did surrender to the French a strip of the Cologne zone including the rail line from IMisseldorf to Treves and Mctz', giving a direct outlet from the Ruhr to France. General Payot, the French chief of communications, said Wednesday: "France has so or ganized the rail and water transport of occupied Germany that it now is prepared to insure international trains, food supply trains for troops and civil ians and trains u: .';.:! n.nd necessary military communications. Ail:''- ;hre -weeks of efforts ami negotiations w e arc prepared to handle the normal transport of coal. With French and l'.el''ian workers and those Germans who have not left their posts we have sulkoient personnel to meet all oar own needs."' It was reported the French would expo! ;'., K K (tornian rail workers who have been active in the campaign of sabotage. Many railway officials have been sentenced to im prisonment for disobedience ami incit ing the employees to strike. Premier Theunis of F,elgiu:n con ferred with Premier l'oincare and gave his approval to plans for additional military measures designed to force Germany to submission. Thee will ab solutely shut off the occupied regions from tiie rest of Genuanv. ial jiaper currency for the Ruhr and the Rhineland will be Issued, guaranteed by requisition bonds put out by the repartitions commission and held against t lie German government. The Socialist and other opposition to the l'oincare policies has been strengthened in France by the otlicial statement of ti.e costs of the adven ture in the Ruhr. The government puts the minimum monthly cost at r0.MM,noo francs. The coal France Las obtained since the occupation be gan has cost her Slot) a ton. Ger many, also, is getting tired of the struggle, and though the C:mo govern ment is still vigorously supporiing the industrial magnates in their passive resistance, there are indications that the renewal of negotiations with France may not be far off. Mean while government otliciah; in consider able numbers are defying the French order to keep out of the occupied re gion and are stirring up all the trou ble they can for the enemv. NEITHER night sessions nor any other expedient has, up to the time of writing, had any effect on the senate filibuster by which a small mi nority is preventing the taking of a vote on the ship subsidy bill. Reed. Caraway, Brookhart. Williams, Heiiin and others of this precious gang re lieve one another in making long-winded speeches on Russia, Tut-Ankh-Amen, the West Indies any subject under the sun except ship subsidy ; and their efforts seem so well organ ized that it is generally admitted that the measure is really dead. Majority lenders in the senate planned, if the filibuster did not end with the week, to ask permission of the President to abandon the bill so that pressing busi ness might be transacted during the tinal week of the session. Just before taking a recess for Washington's birthday the senate did tret a chance to approve the conference report oa. the army appropriation bill, which carries the ."C.OJMXl.iKX) rivers and harbors pork provision. In the house another filibuster de veloped over the bill for the purchase by the government of the Cape Cod ship canal. But that sort of thing can be stopped by the house rules. TIIE farm bine iti the house engaged in a lively contest with Secretary of the Treasury Mellon over rural credits legislation. The secretary con demned its financially unsound the Lenroot-Anders-on bill proposing to es tablish an Independent agricultural re discount system, and approved the Cap- i i per bill to extend and liberalize the credit facilities of the federal reserve system for the benefit of agriculture. The house banking and currency com mittee was scheduled to report only the Capper measure, and the leaders of the farm bloc said In that case they would present the other bill on the floor of the house as an amendment. CONTENTIONS of organized labor and the position taken by the fed eral railway labor board were; sus tained by the Supreme court in a deci sion in the "company union" case in volving the Pennsylvania rail' jad. The opinion, delivered by Chief Justice Taft, held that the labor board did not exceed Its powers when it condemned the methods adopted by the Pennsyl vania ruilroad to establish employee representation in dealing with ques tions of wages and working conditions. Chairman Ron Hooper of the board said the decision was n long step to ward industrial peace on the railroads. "The contention of the employees was in harmony with the spirit of our re publican institutions," be said. "Fp- holdim' the priu'-iple of majority rule j in organized labor will greatly conduc ! to the s-iji'vmaoy of law nvr fori':' in ; the adjustment of industrial contro- i ver-ies." 7iS'ONSIN Socialist.'- cam" to the front rat her startliti; i. last week. Ill the lower house of the state as-om-bly they, in combination villi the ad ministration t)ra. put th. -oi:gh a bill to abolish the Visci!-.s: National Guard. The measure was passed by acclamation, the opposition b-'ing negli gible in numbers. It was taken for granted that the biii would be killed i bv th" senate or vetoed by Governor J R:.':r.e. but this did not naP-rially j lessen the frantic joy of the socialists, j who felt they had put over something i on the so-called progressives and iusti- tied their claim that the Wlseon.-in as- ! sombly Is the most radical of till the j state legislatures. The radica's are threatening to pass so many bills that would hamper capita! that the Wiscon sin Manufacturers' .association laid be fore the legislature a liM of r,r, manu facturing establishments which have planned large extensions and additions, hut which will imt go forward with the work if pending bills go through. George Kiill, secretary of the associa tion, read a formal s'atement that pits sage of radical measures, including tax le'ls now before the legislature, would place an "unfair, discriminatory ami unbearable burden upon industry." TI1E New York bouse (if representa tives, by a vote ,f 7S to C-4. adopted a resolution asking congress to liberal ize the Volstead law, and next day the senate approved it. Fnder an amend ment adopted the resolution must be signed by Governor Smith to be effec tive. The Democrats rather resented this way of "making the governor n clerk for the transmission of the me morial," but it was said Mr. Smith would comply with the requirement. THEOPHILE DELCASSE, one of the most eminent French statesmen of this generation, died last week in Nice. He became minister of foreign affairs in 1898 and held the post eleven years in five successive cabinets. Among his great achievements was the creation of the entente cordiale be tween France and Great Britain. Ap parently foreseeing the World war, he succeeded In forcing Italy and the cen tral empires apart and in conciliating the opposing interests of Russia and England, thus preparing the ground for the quadruple entente. Another nolable figure passed away last week in the death of Mrs. John A. Logan, widow of the famous cavalry general of the Civil war, in her home in Washington. She succumbed to In fluenza. Mrs. Lgnn, who was cghty six years old. never lost her active in terest In public affairs. WASHINGTON'S BIRTHDAY was made the occasion of gatherings, in Chicago and New York, of several thousands of hyphenates who hotly demanded that France be compelled to drop the Ruhr invasion. Nominally "German-American" meetings, they were addressed especially by certain "Irish-Americans" who are notorious as haters of England and lovers of Germany, and who formerly tried to Induce America to fight England foi Ireland's sake.
