SUBSTITUTE FOR I BORAHMEASURE New Disarmament Resolution by Chairman Porter Ordered Before House. HAS APPROVAL OF PRESIDENT Broadens the Scope of the Senate Amendment to Naval Bill—lncludes Disarmament on Land as Weil as on Sea. Washington, June S. —The house foreign affairs committee reported out the Porter disarmament resolution, despite , warnings from senate disarmament advocates that adoption of the Porter proposal would lie up naval appropriation indefinitely. The Porter resolution has the approval of President Harding and was Indorsed by the Republican leaders of the house before it was presented. It broadens the scope of the Borah disarmament amendment added to the naval bill in the senate by including disarmament on land as well as on sea and by including all big armament nations in the proposed conference. The Porter resolution is opposed by Senator Borah and his associates in the disarmament group on the ground that it is not a definite step toward reduction of armaments. Under the provisions of the house measure congress would not direct or authorize the President to call an international conference on the subject, but simply would “concur” in any move he might make toward international disarmament. Democratic members of the foreign affairs committee at a meeting approved the principles of the Porter resolution by voting for a substitute offered by Representative Flood of Virginia, ranking Democratic member of the committee. The Flood substitute went further than the I’orter proposal, however, by “directing the President to call a disarmament conference.” The text of the Porter resolution as J reported * by the committee follows: “Resolved, by the senate and house of representatives of the United Slates of America in congress assembled, that the congress hereby expresses its | full concurrence in the declaration of the President in his address to congress on April 12, 1921, that ‘we are i ready to co-operate with other nations : to approximate disarmament, but I merest prudence forbids that we disarm alone,’ and further fully concurs in his declared purpose and intention to call an international conference to consider the limitation of armaments with a view to lessen materially the ; burden of expenditures and the -nymace of war; and that lor the expenses preliminary to and in connection with the holding of such conference the sum of SIOO,OOO, to be expended under the direction of the President, is hereby appropriated.” MORE TROOPS FOR IRELAND Sending of Additional Forces Is Decided Upon by Commons—Casualties Announced.

Jane 7.—An estate tax Is an "allowable deduction” from the income of an estate in computing net income, the Supreme court ruled.

MEXICO OFFERED NEW U. S. TREATY Secretary Hughes Insists on Recognition of All Property Holdings. CAN'T DESTROY VAUD RIGHTS Declares Mexicans Are Free to Adopt Any Policy Which Pleases Them, but Must Respect Titles of American Citizens. Washington, June 9. —The United States government proposes as a solution of the Mexican problem a treaty of commerce and amity with Mexico. This announcement was made officially by Secretary of Stale Hughes. If Mexico agrees to the treaty, recognition will follow. The text of the State department's announcement follows: “The fundamental question which confronts the government of the United States in considering its relations with Mexico is the safeguarding of property rights against confiscation. Mexico is free to adopt any policy which she pleases with respect to her public lands, but she is not free to destroy without compensation valid titles which have been obtained by American citizens under Mexican laws. “A confiscatory policy strikes not only at the interests of particular individuals, but at the foundations of international intercourse, for it is only on the basis of the security of property validly possessed under the laws existing al the time of its acquisition that commeicial transactions between the peoples of two countries and the conduct of activities in helpful co .operation are possible. “This question should not be confused with any matter of personalities or of the recognition of any particular administration. Whenever Mexico is ready to give assurances that she will perform her fundamental obligations in the pn-tceti n both of persons and of rights of property validly acquired there will be no obstacles to the most advantageous relations between the two peoples. “This question is vital because of the provisions inserted in the Mexican constitution promulgated in 1917. ; If these provisions are to be put into effect retroactively, the properties of Ameriiean citizens will be <«tnti<caied i on a great scale. “This would constitute an interna- : tlonal wrong of the gravest character and Ibis coveriinent could not submit to its Accomplishment. If it be said that thi vror Is m t innende ’ ml •■•o. b. of r "H r, or enforced sol ns to effect, coioi 'ation, then it importani that this should be madp clear bv guarantees in proper fon»L The provisions of the constitution land the executive de- ' crees which hdve been formulated with confiscatory purposes make it obviously necessary that the purpose* of Mexico should be definitely -ft forth. “Accordingly, this government has proposed a treaty of amity and com- | merce with Mexico, in which Mexico will agree to safeguard the rights of property which attached before the : constitution of 1917 was promulgated. The question, it will be observed, is not one of a particular administration, but of the agreement of the nation on the proper form which has become necessary as an international matter because of the provisions of its do- j mettle legislation. If Mexico does I not contemplate a confiscatory policy, the government of the United States can conceive of no possible objection to the treaty.” EUROPE NO LONGER HUNGRY Hoover Says Two-Thirds of Population Now Eating Regularly— Food for All. Washington, June 8. —Europe is no longer going hungry. Authoritative advices to the Department of Commerce show that rationing has been abandoned in two-thirds of the total population and that it has been relaxed on many commodities among the remaining third, Secretary Hoove? announced. “With the forthcoming harvest,” said Mr. Hoover, "it is expected that the economic recovery will have proseeded so far, both in local production and the ability to provide full amount of needed imports, that rationing can be abandoned in all countries, except possibly Austria.” In this event, he pointed out, Europe will have accomplished the first great fundamental step in recuperation.

TWO THINGS NOT LOOKED FOR — Even Stolid Englishman Saw the Humor in One of Josh Billings’ Famous Jokes. Andrew Carnegie told a 1 story al the expense of Matthew Arnold in his “Autobiography." It seems that the English critic was not successful in his lectures in the United States, but he was anxious to learn, and ha asked how Josh Billings held his auI dience. The American humorist re- ! plied: “Well, you mustn’t keep them I laughing too long, or they will think ' you are laughing at them. After giv- . ing the audience amusement you must j become earnest am! play the >• rious i role. For instance. ‘There are two is ever r reared.
