SIGNING OF TREATY
AND RUSSL
Genoa, April 17.?The signing of a
treaty between Germany and Russia,
which nullifies the Brest Litovsk
treaty and reestablishes full diplomatic
relations between" these two
countries on a basis of equality has
caused profound astonishment and resentment
among the allied delegations.
The ministers of the powers
which convened the conference decided
at a meeting held tonight to have
a committee of experts examine this
treaty tomorrow morning to determine
whether it conflicts with the
Cannes resolutions or the treaty of
Versailles.
Subsequently the convening powers
will meet with Poland, Czecho-Slovakia,
Rumania and Jugoslavia to
ascertain the views of the lesser powers
and deal with the report of the
experts.
The British and French delegates
declared tonight that they considered
the signature of the treaty a disloyal
act. Apparently it may imperil the
conference.
It is stated that the signing of the
treaty, which took place at Rapallo
yesterday, was unknown to the allied
leaders, when Lloyd George, Barthou,
Schanz^r and Theunis met this afternoon
to consider the reply which the
Russians might make to the conditions
imposed on that country, but as soon
as the delegates learned of the treaty
their program was changed, and the
situation, which is considered extremely
grave, fully discussed.
M. Barthou, head of the French
delegation, is seeking further instructions
from his government at Paris
and declared that he would not sit beside
Russians in semi-official meetings,
while M. Colrat, French under
secretary of state, speaking to the
correspondents, said: "I have taken
all necessary measures to cancel the
meeting of the third commission over
r ? iv. v.? _*
wiuvii x ^ivdiuc as tuc uiriiiuria
present do not want to sit on the same
commission as the Germans and Russians."
..
The action of the Germans and Russians,
on first announcement, had an
- these countries had been negotiating
- for months but was not aware they
had signed a treaty until late this
afternoon.
The situation is so critical that the
most prominent delegates are reserving
their opinions until after the experts
examine the new document,
which is generally regarded in allied
circles as an infringement of the Genoa
agenda, because it has to do with
reparations and affects existing treaties.
The French have insisted that
neither of these things should be done.
Clearly there are stormy times ahead.
mi a. i 2 J / ?. _
ine treaty proviues tor rcnuiiciation
of war expenses, damages and
expenditures incurred through war
prisoners, and renunciation also of all
claims of German individuals or the
state itself against the Soviet republic.
Resumption of consular and diplomatic
relations is to take place immediately,
commercial relations are to
be regulated on the most favored national
principle and the rights of the
nationals of both countries in the territory
of the other are to be conserved.
The two governments will assist
each other in their e'conomic difficulties
and the German government declares
itself ready to facilitate economic
contracts between private enterprises
in the two countries.
Genoa, April 17.?The Russo-German
treaty, signed on Sunday at Rapallo
by George Chitcherin and Dr.
Walter Rathenau, contains the following
provisions:
Article 1. (a) The German and Russian
governments have agreed to set*
tie war time questions on the following
basis:
' The German government and the
Soviet republic reciprocally renounce
reimbursement of war expenses as
well as reimbursement of war damages
and also damages suffered by
their subjects in the war territories
i ~ M ?
Decause 01 muiiury measures, iiiciuuing
requisitions caried out in the
enemy's country. Likewise the two
contracting governments renounce reimbursement
of civil damages caused
by the socalled exceptional laws or by
coercive measures by state authorities.
(b) All legal relations concerning
questions of public or private law resulting
from the state of war, including
the question of merchant ships
acquired by either side during the
war, shall be settled on a basis of
reciprocity.
(c) Germany and Russia mutually
renounce the repayment of expenses
caused by prisoners of war in the
same way as the reich renounces repayment
of expenses caused by the internment
of soldiers of the Russian
army. The Russian government renounces
payment of the sum Germany
has darived from the sale of Russian
army material transported into Germany.
Article 2. Germany renounces all

K CAUSES CONFUSION
DIAL IMPATIENT
WITH COMMITTEE
Washington, April 17. ? Senator
Dial of South Carolina gave notice in
the senate today that he would move
the discharge of the senate committee
on agriculture from further consideration
of his bill which provides
for further restricting the operating
of cotton exchanges.
The committee is strongly disposed
to favor the bill, according to the
statements of its several members,
but is adverse to reporting it, it would
appear. Senator Dial, at any rate, has
grown exceptionally tired of the dilatory
tactics pursued by the committee
and thinks the time has come for action.
It is indicated that no member of
the committee save Senator Ransdel
of Louisiana will openly oppose the
Dial bill. It is believed, however, that
secret methods to strangle it have
been pursued.

force the cotton exchanges to deliver
to purchasers cotton in the grade
they contract to deliver. Senator Dial
says it would give purchasers an
even break and relieve producers of
their disadvantageous position of being
at the mercy of "the gamblers in
New York and New Orleans."
Senator Dial will confer tomorrow
with the experts of the agricultural
department and will then insist that
the senate take up and dispose of the
proposition. The exchanges have
fought and are still fighting the measure.

A Reply to the
Women Voters' Letter
Dear Ladies:
In regard to my simple letter to the
Times, I beg to say: There was no
intention to hurt any one's feelings.
I only thought I had a right to praise
all the good people in Union; it was
not to get politics started or to cause
any comment. All you said about
me is true, and I must say I am sorry
I got into the courts.
I thought I was praising the good
women, Dut you saw nt to take it the
other way, I am only a poor man and
I trust that this will be enough to convince
you that I did not intend to do
any harm, and if you are Christian
people, you will certainly forgive me
for the wrong I have done. I think
Union is the best place I ever saw
and if my letter is the cause of us
having a cleaner town and better laws,
and more Christians I thank God for
it. And if saying things about me
will constitute this, put it to me, ladies,
as I feel like you can put more
and more than you have; for I feel
like I can carry a great load to bring
about these good things.
I wrote that letter Sunday evening
sitting on my porch. Mr. Munroe Ward
was sitting with me part of the time,
and when I was about done I read it
to him, and no one but he and myself
knew of the letter until it reached Mr.
Rice.
Now, ladies, I have nothing more to
say, only God be with you.

ANNOUNCES PACT ~
WITH RUSSIANS
Berlin, April 17 (By the Associated
Press).?An official communication
was issued this evening: announcing
the conclusion of a KussoGerman
treaty at Genoa. Briefly
outlined it says the treaty has been
under consideration for the past two
months. The original draft was prepared
and submitted by Lenoid Krassin,
the Bolshevik commissair of foreign
trade and commerce, early in
February and since then its scope and |
character have been liberally-amplified
through conversations betwfeen I
Berlin, Riga and Moscow.
During the course of these conversatipns
the. government freely constilted
the German industrialist league |
and also dispatched prominent leaders
of the league to Moscow and Petrograd
with the purpose of obtaining
a first hand view of the economic
situation.
'The communication declares the i
present treaty virtually received the j
^nal approval of both contracting
ptftties when the Russian delegation j
at Genoa, including M. Chitcherin, M. |
Litvlnoflf, M. Joffe, M. Krassin and M. i
Kakosky, were in Berlin on their way!
to Italy, but that the formality of I
taping was deferred until all the
parties to ;he compqct had been con-)
fveniently gathered together in Genoa.'

MUSCLE SHOALS
Washington, April 17.?Members of
the house military committee concluded
today their first exchange of
individual opinions on the four private
proposals for developing the
government's projects at Muscle
Shoals, Ala., and adjourned until
Wednesday. At that time, it was announced
by Chairman Khan, the committee
will begin boiling down testimony
heard during the investigation
of the offers to reach a constructive
program, the outstanding features of
each proposal to be considered as a
part of the report to be drafted for
the house.
Sentiment among the committeemen,
it was said, had not yet reached
the stage where any of the existing
proposals had received prferential
consideration.
While hopeful that the final endeavor
of the committee to reach a
constructive program for development
of Muscle Shoals would receive
the full approval of the 21 members
of the committee, Chairman Kyhn
said he Was unable to predict what
the final decision would be or which
of the existing offers now under consideration
would be recommended in
whole or in part.
Members who attended the exeru
tive committee sessions while the exchange
of the opinions was in progress
said today the indications were
that important modifications in the
existing ofTere jjyobably would be insisted
upon^yChe committer before
it submittnea^^eftort/t&4)?h? house.
Nsthe of thb;vpropos?lh,_ it. - was evvoiced
bjr. t^e, mer^bfet^ eouW be acand
lease, it was said. Another point
in that offer not altogether satisfactory,
according to some members,
was the 100 year lease period. A
reduction to 50 years was preferred
by several members.
After the "boiling down" of evidence
has been completed it is prob
able that Chairman Kahn will request
the creation of a subcommittee
with himself excluded for working
out the details of the report.
The present plan involves the recalling
of each of the bidders by the
committee after the subcommittee
has completed the report.
The senate agricultural committee
held its first actual examination today
of the offers pending before it for
investigation. Thomas VV. Martin,
president of the Alabama Power company,
wan called ami presented the
offer made by the power company for
its development of the power project
in the Muscle Shoals territory.
After a brief session the commit
tee adjourned to continue its study of
the power company's proposal tomorrow.
Mr Martin was able to make
little progress in the time allowed today
and it was estimated that he
would continue on the stand several
days to complete his statement unless
the committee extended its session
to the afternoon.

1N10N HOLD
[NG AT COURT HOUSE
The third meeting of the women
I v.oters was held in the court house
! yesterday afternoon and it was a rep|
lesentative gaihering. The chairman,
Mrs. W. T. Beaty presided and intro1
duced Mr. Rmslie Nicholson and Mr.
T. C. Duncan, who presented the hospital
proposition?and a digest of the
speeches is as follows:
"At intervals, for many years, efforts
were made to build a hospital in
Union, but without success. Then a
plan was proposed to make it a stock
; company and meetings were held and
subscriptions were solicited. Apparently
enough had been subscribed, and
cne of the foremost architects of the
country, who makes a specialty of
hospitals was employed, plans prepared.
material bought and work bei
gun before the great advance in
| prices.
"The building was completed, equipped
and thrown open for public inI
spection in May, 1921, and proounced
by all to be thoroughly modern in every
respect. It cost over $72,000.
Due to the failure of a considerable
number of subscribers to pay up, and
the then financial conditions preventing
any additional subscriptions being
secured, a half dozen of Union's
public spirited citizens borrowed the
money to keep the property from being
sold for its debts.
"The trustees of the hospital, be;
lieving that the good people of Union
j county do not want those who have
! built this institution, which was so
! greatly needed by the county, without
; hope of profit to themselves, to lose
all that they have put into it, and
also the money that they have borrowed
for the hospital, asked our
county delegation to have the legislature
pass a bill authorizing a bond
issue for the'purpose of taking over
thp hospital. This was done, and oil
nro-J iooo ? ?-ii i?
mcvy ,? ? %&* x an victMUII will liu
held for the purpose of voting ou a, ' * . .I|
bond issue of $75,000?bearing not , v .
county delegation.
"The trustees have agreed to accept
j $50,000 for the entire property, freed
from all encumbrances. It is now rented
at $3(500 per year, which is more
' than seven per cent on the amount
which is being asked for it. After the
I indebtedness is paid, there will only
; be left sufficient to pay the stockholders
about sixty per cent of the money
which they have invested. The coun|
ty will get property which cost over
$72,000 for $50,000. and which pays
more interest than will have to be
paid on the bonds for its purchase."
They were listened to with interest
and the women asked many questions
relative to the matter, which the
akers answered to their entire satisfaction.
Routine matters were disposed of
and a committee was appointed to
take up the question of the dangerous
railroad crossings in the city limits
and the body decided to have an open
meeting Monday night at 8 o'clock in
the court house and invite the candidates
and all those interested. A program
is being prepared, consisting of
patriotic songs and several speeches
by the women; the men have been so
anxious to hear the women speak, that
they are to be given the opportunity
Monday night.
The city candidate^ answered the
questionnaires sent out by the women;
that is, most of them did, and those
who diil not were conspicous for their
silence. The coming election is creating
a deal of warm interest for the
vote of women has them all guessing.
