RUSSIANS WANT INDEMNITY
J H the Associated Press
Londen. April 1.1 The Russians at
Genea will give nil the llnanclal guar
antees demanded lit the program pre
pnred by the allied experts, but flatly
I refuse te accept the clause providing
'for mixed tiibunnls In fix responsibil
ity, says n tienen dispatch te the Hx
clinnire Tideernnli. The Itusslniis con
sider the tribunal clause ns nn infringe
ment of Itusslnn sovereignty.
Genea. April 1!!. While rumors of
n sensational nature were living thickly
about, Genea Conference circles today,
most of them bein.t promptly disavowed,
the one fact that appeared te stand our
in the somewhat clouded atmosphere
was thnt neither the disai moment nor
reparations question would be brought
up for" specific action ngaint the op
position of Franc r.
The disarmament discussion had cen
tered in the rumor that Prime Minister
Llejd Geerge would propose n military
holiday for a fixed time. This wns
flatly disavowed tills afternoon by mem
bers of the Mritish delegation.
Other reports were that the uusians
and the Germans were prepnring te
leave the conference, unless reparations
and disarmament were made part et
the agenda. Thcc were ale officially
.!.,.,:. i
it was pointed out tlinf it wns sun
tee enrly for nny of tlie Powers te
quit the conference en tlie ground that
the gathering wns net developing value
te their Interests, se tlie proceedings
have net 1 cached a definite enough stage
te justify such action before the home
publics of the various delegations, which
were thoroughly advised lu nihnncc re
garding the agenda.
Husslans and Germans Dissatisfied
The Hussiens nnd the Germans mean
while nre both busily engaged in try
ing te digest the report of the Londen
expetts en Russia, nnd both arc heceiu-
Inn Innrluiuliwlv lllssn t IsflCll tllO further
ihev delve Inte" it. It seems Improbable ,
that the subcommlssieu en Russinn af
fairs will be nble te meet tomorrow, ns
the Russians declare they have net been
nble te assimilate such a comprehensive
document sufficiently in the brief time
thev have had since its presentation.
Their request for nddltlennl time, it is
thought probable. Is also Inspired by a
desire ler a fuller communication with
Moscow. ,
Adelph Jeffe, of the Russian delega
tion, declared today that ninny of the
recommendations In the report were ,
"quite absurd" nnd designed te put
Russia under a foreign yoke, "tlie same
as Turkey and China."
As te the disarmament nnd repara
tions issues, it nppeared lcnr that the
conference could net conceivably enter
tain nny resolutions relating directly te '
them unle-s France consented te a
change in the agenda. It is impossible
te prevenr members of the conference
'from discussing reparations and (lis- '
m-innnienl . but mere discussion is net
regarded as a violation of the
n violation of tlie nzem u '
'and all members nre pledged net te move
consideration of questions that have
been barred. ,

FARMERS TO GIVE
NEW TARIFF BILL
Leaders of Bureau Federation
Preparing Critical Analysis
of Senate Measure
NEW SCHEDULES TOO HIGH.
SAY ORGANIZATION'S HEADS
lly CLINTON W. (JIIJJKRT
stnff (nrrrspenclrnt Kvenlnr Public Idser
eputiaht, 13 j. hv I'ublie Ledger Cnnipamf
Washlngt-!ii. April in. The lenders
t here of the Kami Iturenu Kcdcrntlen
1 are opposed te the tariff bill which
has just been reported Je the Senate.
They nre having It nnnljyed by experts,
mid the icstilts of this analysis will li
'sent out te tlie farmers of the country
J11 11 short time. t'pen tiie reaction
thin fellows will depend In n large
' measure tlie fate of the high rates III
the present bill. '
1 Recently the bureau sent out a let
lei nttuckliig Hie Kerdney plnn of
'American vnliintlen. At that time th
sentiment among the farmer Senators
twos strongly for this plan. Senater
i Heeding had organized a hlec te fight
I for if. nticl tlie Sennte Finance Commit
tee wp.s divided almost evenly between
I it and the Smoot proposal of foreign
valuation. Tlie letter produced nn al-
I most instantaneous chnnge. The Geed-.
I lug bloc went te pieces nnd n strong
majority for the nurepr.in valuation
J developed in committee. This Incident
illustrates the power of tlie bureau lead
ers here.
1 Time for Farmer te Act
I. 12. Heward, who is the head of
the Rureaii Federation, said teday:
"'Vhe time has come for the farmer te
decide whether he does net lese mere
I from n high tariff then he gains. Prices
nre advanced for him en the mnnn
, fnctured nrticles vlilcdi he buys. The
only benefit of high duties te the farm
1 ers. except in the case of one or two
articles, is the prevention of dumping.
I Speculators bring In corn or wheat from
the Argentine and threw It en the msr
l.el te break prices."
I "If the farmer gets high rates te
te event dumping, hew can he oppose
1 high rates en ether things, .such as
I potash, which will send up the price of
(fertiliser?" Mr. Heward was asked,
"I don't knew." replied Mr. Heward...
"Perhaps the answer is thnt we new!
another Delliver in the 1'nltfd Stntea
Sennte." Mr. Delliver led the fight,
against the Pajne-Aldrieh tariff in'
11110. and Mr. Heward mav be the nea
LlJelllvcr. He came from Delliver
sinte. jewn. and was Senater Kenron
choice for the Senate when he resigned
te go en tne pencil.
On potash the farmer will make a
fight, but it Is hard te make an effectiv
I tight while farm preducts1 aic highly
ji ret ee ted.
I Less Seen in Tariff mi Hides
I Anether commedltj which will in
teicst the farmer is shoes. Higji duties
are levied en hides in this bill. Rut it
Is urged thnt farmers will lese mere in
the advanced price of the shoes they
buy than they will gain through the ini-
I proved price of hides.
I It will take a geed deal of education
te make the farmer see the tariff as the
farm leaders here see it. When the
war ended the farmer was the victim
of dumping from abroad. The flew of
I products had been stepped. There was an
accumulation : everything was thrown
into tlie American market. Price
I broke, but even nt the low prices rate
of exchange se favored the foreign
farmer Hint he could sell here.
This created the demand for the
emergency tariff, and the farmer, who
, had fermeily been a lew-tnrlff ndvo ndve
uite. became a high protectionist. It
, is. tee seen for him te change his mind.
And the vote of the ngilcultural Sena
tors rcpiesents the belief that the farm-
