Washington C., mar. 27�? a it a differences Between the United states and great Britain Over interpretation of the 1924 rum a smuggling treaty Are Likely to be j ,3ing clarified As one outcome of the j sinking of the Canadian Schooner i a a in Malone 200 Miles off the j Louisiana coast Friday by an am i Erica patrol boat. Pending study of Complete official reports no formal action is expected either in the form of a protest or overtures looking to clarification of the rights of the coast guard to search seize and pursue suspected rum runners found within one hours sailing distance of the american Shore. Government interested in the meantime official and diplomatic circles a a considerably interested in the possible courses which action might take and some observers who have followed the unofficial reports of the incident see in them the germs of differences which could Lead to the necessity of arbitration. At least in the opinion of state department officials the Case involves technicalities which Call for the skill of International lawyers. Only a few changes Are needed to make the rum smuggling treaty More effective As rear Admiral f. Billard commandant of the coast guard views the situation. These he suggests might include an agreement under which the government would require ships using its ports to furnish proof that their cargoes were delivered at the Points designated in their clearance papers. American benefits under the treaty would be nullified he believes if the right to pursue suspected vessels were restricted to one hours sailing distance from the coast or if the implied right to use Force in exercising the search and seizure privilege were restrained. Chase was Long one that is one of three Points which diplomatic circles Here View As possible bases for a Canadian protest if it decides to take such action. International Law recognizes Only three Miles As the limit of territorial Waters and sanctions a hot Pursuit Only when begun within that area it is explained whereas the Chase of the a a in Malone began according to coast guard estimates not less than eight Miles from Mote. The other two Points have to do with the nature of the Pursuit of the a a in Malone in which the patrol boat that began the Chase was joined by another and the Chase then continued for the unusual distance of 200 Miles and with the question of whether the sinking of the Schooner by the latter with the loss of a British Seaman a life by three yank fliers Battle for rebels Juarez Mexico mar. 27.�? a a a the Yankee Doodle Birdman a a fighting air Squadron of american pilots has come into being a an adjunct of the rebel army.

Ice Gorge Breaks but forms again Bismarck n. D., mar. 27�? up a honeycombed above by a hot Sun and below by flowing Wrater the huge ice Gorge in the Missouri River at Huff below Here began to break up shortly after 1 30 p. In.

For Winch the engineers were making preparations was done the Jam breaking of its own Accord Quot a half hour after the break up was reported however the ice gorged again and appeared to be As immovable As before the first break up occurred. Thousands of acres of farm lands besides parts of Bismarck and Mandan were inundated today As the water backed up from the huge Gorge widened the River to from six to ten Miles. Under Normal conditions the River is about 1,200 feet wide at this Point. Traffic Between Mandan and Bis Hoover splits with leaders on farm Issue difficulty arises when president refuses to t Lead in drafting Bill wont Wield a a club by James a West Washington C., mar. 27�?up a a rift appears to be developing Between president Hoover and some of the congressional leaders charged with drafting farm Relief legislation for consideration at the special session of Congress beginning next month. The surface reason is the determination of the chief executive to refrain from writing an agricultural measure and imposing it upon Congress but behind that is Sharp divergence of View As to the fundamental principle of the Bill itself. Some of the farm leaders in Congress take the position that since Hoover led the fight before the country for a Relief measure omitting the equalization fee principle and interpreted the party platform As to a specific program he should play the principal part in framing the legislation to0 carry out his views. Want Hoover to Lead among this group Are those who profess to be unable to determine just what the party plan is and they Advance this As a further argument Why the president should take the initiative and guide the committees of Senate and House which Are wrestling with the problem. A the president s View is that to Fig Kansas City platform provided a plan that this plan was presented to the country time and again and that the principles Are Well known alike to Congress and the country consequently he sees no reason Why the committees should have difficulty on this score. Beyond this however is his determination against being placed in in the position of undertaking to Wield a Quot big stick Over Congress. Such practice in the past has led to Sharp attacks on tile executive from members of his own party As Well As those in the opposition ranks. where differences begin the disagreement on tile fundamental principles of the Bill revolves around the Powers that Are to be Given the proposed farm Board. Hoovers idea is for a Grant of Power which would Enatale the Board to Deal with not Only the present problem in tile agricultural Industry but also those that May arise in the future. This is resisted in some congressional quarters on several grounds. One is that the Board Given such Power might encroach upon the functions of other agencies of tile government such As the interstate Commerce commission and the farm loan Board. Another is that this granting of Power might prove a dangerous and is too great to lie placed in the hands of a Board which is without direct responsibility to the people As would be the Case of men appointed by the cheif executive with the advice of the Senate. Meanwhile the chief executive is holding himself in readiness for conferences with the farm leaders while the legislation is in the formative stage but he will withhold any Public discussion of the form of the Bill until he sends his message to the special session which begins on april 15.
