DEAL WITH CZECHS ENDED
Xogotiations Regarding Increase of
Japanese Forces Guarding: Coun
try Are Continuing.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 12. (By the
Associated Press.) Decision to with
draw American troops from Siberia on
completion of the repatriation of the
Czecho-SJovak force next month haa
been reached by the American gov
ernment. The troops were cent to Siberia in
accord with an agreement between
the United State, japan and the en
tente to aid the Czechs and protect the
61 be rl an railroad, and Japan haa been
notified by the United States of 'the
cancellation of that agreement inso
far as It affects the presence of - an
American military expedition.
When the Czechs have been re
moved, the American railroad commis
sion, headed by John F. Stevens, in
Russia since before the fall of the
former czar's government, will leave
Vladiyostok for home, and the Amer
ican soldiers under Major-General
Graves will follow as soon as trans
ports are available. Presumably the
same ships which are to take the
Czccho-Slovaks across the Paolfic will
be used. Two vessels, the President
and America, are expected to leave
Hew York in a few days.
With tlje departure of the Ameri
cans, Japan will be left alone to as
sist the loyal Russians in their ef
forts to stem the bolsheviki. The
rapid progress made by soviet forces
lias caused apprehension in Japan, and
the cabinet at Tokio has been con
sidering means of combating what
Japanese officials regard as a serious
menace.
Suggestions have been made that
Japan materially increase its force of
BO, 000 troops in Siberia, and it has
opened negotiations with the Amer
ican government with this in view.
Bo far as was learned today, how
ever, no agreement has been reached.
The American force numbers about
S000 men and was sent into Siberia

Supreme Court Denies Liquor Deal
ers' Motion for Permission
to Institute Suit.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 12. Steps to
bring test proceedings to determine
constitutionality of the federal pro
hibition amendment received a set
back today when the supreme court
denied, for lack of jurisdiction, mo
tions filed on behalf of the Retail
Liquor Dealers1 association of New
Jersey seeking permission to insti
tute an original suit.
The denial, however, does not end
efforts to expedite determination of
the questibn of the motions filed by
Rhode Island, asking similar permis
sion, which were argued today and
remain to be acted upon. As the fed
eral amendment is effective Friday,
action on the Rhode Island motion
within the next few days is antici
The 'order denying permission to
bring the New Jersey suit was made
orally by Chief Justice White, who
held the motion to file the case rested
upon a plain disregard of two princi
ples of jurisdiction that had been
settled from ae beginning. One, he
said, was that a citizen of a state
could not bring suit against a state
without its consent, while the other
was that the federal constitution does
not create jurisdiction, but only ap
portions it, and held that under the
constitution the supreme court had
no jurisdiction such a case as that
from .New Jersey.
Mr. J. A. McCrea, a well-known
resident of San Francisco, who was
called Daddy and Grandpa on account

it with a home-made mixture, re

"Anyone can prepare a simple mix-.-
ture at home that will darken gray
, hair, and make it soft and glossy. To
a half-pint of water add 1 ounce of
bay rum, a small box of Barbo Com
X pound and ounce of glycerine.

WARSAW. (By mall.) Within the
last few weeks there have been no
less than six serious cabinet crises
in Europe, all of which seem in a
fair way t be Bettled out of hand,
except here in Poland, where the
condition seems to be chronic. When
asked for information as to the latest
development yesterday a leading
politician shrugged his shoulders. If
he had been an American he would
have said "Ask me something new."
Being a Pole, his answer was: "I
can tell you what the situation is
now. but I can't vouch for it within
the next five minutes. .
As things now stand. Paderewski
seems to be definitely eliminated as
a political factor, for a while at
least, and Skulski, who Is a pharma
cist by profession and one time mayor
ef Lodz, has formed a liberal nation
alist cabinet, which may last, two
days, two weeks or two months. The
Paderewskis moved today from the
Zamek, the old royal palace, which
they have occupied for some months,
to the Hotel Bristol. This afternoon
the hotel guests were edified by the
sight of Mme. Paderekskl's baggage
arriving piecemeal. First there were
numerous pieces of luggage, large
and small, followed by a valet laden
with hat boxes, sundry porters with
pots of growing plants, maids carry
ing down comforts and blankets, a
pretty young secretary struggling
with a full-sized typewriter, and
finally madame's femme de chambrc,.
with a toilet case, a huge basket of
fruit and a woolly dog. i
I'aderewskl la Undoubted.
-Men of all. parties are unanimous
In declaring their belief in Paderew
skl's single-hearted patriotism; there
are many who appreciate his enor
mous services to his country before
and after his nomination as premier
last January and who would like to
see him remain in the government
as minister of foreign affairs, and
mere are not a few who believe that
he will be the country's choice for
president in the elections which are
to follow the adoption of a consti
tution. It is acknowledged that he
la the only man who .could have se
cured the support and confidence of
the entente for the new Polish gov-
rnment, but, paradoxical as It may
eem, this very fact is now beine
held against him.
There is a arrowlner feelins- that
Poland Is not receiving a square deal
at the hands of the entente. It is
pointed out that the country has been
carrying on the war against soviet
Russia for a year, practically without
assistance, and is at present maintain
ing at Its own expense a force of over
500.000 men scattered over a front
more than 1350 kilometers in length
and that it has had to pay liberally
lor an munitions, furnished bv the
allies. The only country which fur-
ntsned military material without
stipulations as to credits and guaran
tees was italy. One or two nasty
stories that have come to light with
regard to shipments by the French of
-ammunition" that consisted in large
part of commercial wares have served
to augment this feeling.
Workers' Sympathy Lost.
Internal conditions also have been
brought up as arguments against the
Paderewski government. It is de
clared, particularly by the socialists,
that he has carried out none of the
reforms promised last January. The
agrarian reform bill has been shelved
temporarily with the adoption of a
resolution by the Polish diet outlining
a scheme for the partition of great
landed estates and the compensation
of the owners. The approvisionment
problem Is another sore point with
the socialists, who charge that the
government has displayed marked
weakness In the matter of food con
trol, and It would seem that Paderew
ski, with the best intentions, has done
much to alienate the sympathy of the
working classes.
Not long ago a deputation of work-
lngmen waited on him. presenting a
list of grievances. "That is too bad,"
aid the premier, and he handed the
chairman his personal check for 300,-
000 marks. The men, however, had
come not to ask for charity, but to
secure the promise of certain definite
reforms, and Paderewski action did
not tend to promote a friendly understanding.
Msae. PpdmrnktSa Diafavor.
There has been another disturbing
factor at work the alleged influence
of Mme. Paderewski, which is the sub
ject of - discussion everywhere and
affords much entertainment for War
saw at large. In small wine shops and
smart cafes, behind counters, on street
cornera, the same story is repeated,
with variations. "Yes, Paderewski is
a very fine man, but he is ruled by his
wife too much petticoat politics.
Mme. Paderewski is supposed to
have a finger In every pie, and to
have boundless ambition for her
husband. In this anti-Semite coun
try her Jewish ancestry is held
against her and certain pages, of
her past have been dug up and aired
once more. She has a son by her
former marriage. Grabowski by name

America a bad lot generally, whose
misdeeds are gleefully recounted,

During the two weeks' cabinet
crisis that has just come to an end,
with Paderewskl's final resignation
after three attempts td form a min
istry. General Pllsudskl's attitude
has been an enigma. He has not let
drop a single word that throws . any
light on his views. The fall of the
Paderewski ministry has been ap
parently brought about by the peo
ple's land party, headed by Vltos,
which holds the balance of power in
the diet. Vitos, after pledging his
support to Paderewski, swung his
party to the opposition, which de
manded the retention, of BUiuski as
minister of finance a proposition to
which Paderewski categorically re
fused his consent.
Pllsudskl's enemies insist that he
has been trying to bring about a
stats - of chaos that would force a
military dictatorship, with himself
as dictator. It is even asserted that
there was a carefully planned coup
d'etat in prospect which fell through
at the last moment. His friends
merely look wise tfnd state that "The
