j Entente Warns Greece Not to Restore
Constantino to Throne—D'Annun
zlo Declaree War on Italy—Pree
-1 Ident-Elect Harding Home.
By EDWARD W. PICKARD.
Comparative harmony, forced by
atresa of circumstances, marked the
dolngß of the League of Nations assem
bly during the early part of the work,
and then came discord that threatened
to result In the withdrawal of at least
one Important member nation —Argen-
tina.
Certain amendments to the covenant
had been proposed by the Scandinavian
delegates and the commission on
amendments had reported against them
andtny other amendments at this
the assembly there was a mo
tion to refer the amendments to a spe
cial committee for a report next Sep
tember. Delegate Pueyrredon of Ar
gentina alone opposed this, and Blnce
the covenant requires a unanimous
vote for the carrying of any motlcti,
apparently the proposition wis
blocked. But Vlvlanl of France at once
asserted that this was a "question of
procedure" and that the unanimity
rale did not apply. President Mymans
supported the contention, declared the
resolution carried and adjourned the
meeting.
Dlspatchea from Buenos Aires said
the government was momentarily ex
pecting a cablegram from Pueyrredon.
whg Is foreign minister of Argentina,
and that the withdrawal of the nation
from the league was likely to follow.
The league members thought they
had found the way to save what
remains of the Armenian people, for
Prealdent Wilson, asked by the league
council to mediate for Armenia with
Mustapha Kemal Pasha,, consented to
undertake the task through a repre
sentative to be named by him. He
made It plain that his effort must be
personal and that he would have to
rely, In determining the method of
approaching the problem, on the ad
vice of those nearer the scene of ac
tion. Such advice will be aupplled
by the commissioners of the allied
nations In Turkey. Spain and Brazil
have offered to co-operate with the
United States In the matter.
When, and If, tlie Armenian affair
Is settled. Greece evidently must pay
the price. Kemal must be placated,
and Uils can be done only by a radical
revision of the treaty of Bevres. At
this writing the plans for such re
vision are being arranged In London
by Premiers Lloyd. George of Great
Britain and Leygues of France. The
most Important Changes In the pact
doubtless will be made at the ex
pense of Greece's newly acquired ter
ritory In Asia Minor and Thrace.
Since the Greeks ousted Venlselos and
prepared to restore Constantlne to
the throne their ambitions have re
ceived smaller consideration by
great powers. Already, it Is under
stood, Great Britain, France and Italy
have agreed that the Smyrna region
shall be Internationalised and policed
by locally recruited gendarmes of
ficered by an International officers'
corps. .
It Is certain that Kemal will not be
Mtlsfied with this Smyrna concession,
for his growing power Is causing his
demands to Increase. Newspapers of
Angora, where he makes his head
quarters, say he asks that Thrace be
given autonomy, Constantinople be
evacuated by the allies and the allied
and Interallied sonea of control and
Influence In Syria and other parts of
the Turkish empire be abandoned. It
In probable some of these demands
will be rejected, and equally probable
that some of (hem wIU be granted.
Kernel's military strength Is worth
consideration and his popular support
Is widespread. Sixty German officers
have been making over his bands of
fighters Into regular army units, and
he recently added to his equipment a
quantity of artillery obtained from
the soviet Russians.
From Geneva came a story that the
league committee on Armenia, of
- which Lord Robert Cecil is chairman,
probably would appoint Gen. Leonard
Wood commander of the Armenian ex
peditionary force with the title of
high commissioner. The choice, it
was added, was on the recommenda
tion of Sir Frederick Morris and
Gen. Weygand. Officials In Washing
ton did not take this report seriously,
but it may turn out to be true.
By unanimous vote the league com
mission on new members decided that
Austria should be adaMtted, and there
was no doubt that the assembly would
ratify the action. Bulgaria also wants
to get In at once, but Greece, Serbia
and Roumanla all are opposed'to her
admission and may prevent It There
was reason to believe they would be
supported In this py France, which
seeks to gain strength In central Eu
ropean friendships. For the present,
at least, France has her way In bar
ring Germany from Immediate mem
bership In the league. The commis
sion has decided against the admle
slon of Lichtensteln and Azerbaijan,
but recommended that Costa Rica be
made a member.
Gustav Ador of Switzerland, backed
by the delegates of several other na
tions, tried to have the economic com
mission Instructed to study means of
preventing monopolies of raw nlate
rlals and measures to insure their
distribution throughout the world, the
argument being that raw materials
belong not to the nation In which they
are produced, but to the world. This
was blocked by Sir George E. Foster
of Canada, who said his country and
the United States nevejr would sub
scribe to that principle. A futile ef
fort to have Spanlah adopted as the
third official language of the league
brought out the statement by the for
eign minister of Panama that the 15
states of Central and South America
are united around Spain as their
leader.
If the Greeks recall Constantlne to
the throne, they wUI forfeit the good
will and support of Groat Britain,'
France and Italy. These three powers,
It was decided at a conference In Lon
don, should so warn the new Greek
government, and a note to that effect
was drafted. The restoration of the
former king, says the warning, "could
only he regnrded as ratification of his
hostile acts" during the war. llils de
cision by the entehte is a victory for
the French point of view.
D'Annunzlo having refused to ac
cept the agreement between Italy and
Jugo-Slavla, the Italian government
sent General Caviglla to Invest Flume.
This he did, and sent to the poet war
rior by airplane a proclamation an
nouncing the Intention of the govern
ment to enforce the condltitas of the
Rapallo treaty without delay and
calling on the regency of Flume to
withdraw all its forces behind the
frontiers. He next Invited D'Annun
zlo's troop* to leave him and re
enroll In their old units, and threat
ened a severe blockade of the city.
D'Annunzlo, seemingly undaunted, re
sponded In a declaration' of a state
of war with Italy, effective December
8. General Caviglla Is doing all he
can to avoid bloodshed and hla troops
would hate to fire on their brother
Italians, but If It comes to actual war
fare the result cannot be In doubt
D'Annunzlo would soon be crushed.
The warning Issued by the British
government, that the Irish were about
to carry the "war" to England, was
Justified. To date the chief weapon
used In this new development of the
conflict Is arson. A large number of
'lncendiary Area were started slmul
taneously along the Liverpool water
front and several big cotton ware
houses were destroyed. The Incen
diaries worked in small groups and
some of them, being Interrupted by
the police, killed one officer and a
civilian. About the same time the
London police said they had foiled
a plot to start fires in the metropolis
on a large scale. Elaborate precau
tions were taken In all the large
cities of England.
Spnday night two motortrucks full
of black and tan recruits, all former
officer* In the war, were ambushed
near Kilmlchael, Ireland, and 15 of
them murdered.
Reprisals continued In Ireland un
checked. The town ball and other *
buildings In Cork were set on Ore and
Ave Sinn Fein clubs were destroyed.
Raids by the military and police were
frequent, there and elsewhere. Uni
formed men entered Klllarney and
smashed all the windows in the buri»
ness section of the city.
The British government met with
defeat in the house of lords when trie
home rale bill came up. Baron Oran
more and Brown offered an amend
ment providing for the establishment
of a senate for southern Ireland, and
It was adopted against the govern
ment by a vote of 120 to 36. Another
amendment, bestowing a second cham
ber on the * Ulster parliament, also
was carried. "*•
It Is reported that the government
has decided that all members of the
Irish republican army who have been
or may be rounded up snail be In
terned In camps In Ireland and held
without trial unless they are charged
with some penal offense.
Geo. Alvaro Obregon was Inaug
urated President of Mexico at mid
night Tuesday, and at about the same
time officials of the American Depart
ment of Justice made wholesale raids
at various points along the border.
These agents captured a mass of docu
mentary evidence proving the exist
ence of a plot, organised on this side
of the border, to start a new revolu
tion and overthrow the Obregon gov
ernment It was said that Lucio
Blanco, a farmer officer in Carranza's
army, was at the head of the con
spiracy.
Just before his Inauguration Obre
gon stated in an Interview that article
27 in the Mexican constitution, re
stricting ownership of oil lands, would
not be abrogated, but he was sure the
application of the article would soon
t>e regulated to the satisfaction of
the United States by a commission
to be appointed. He said Mexico
would not ask admission to the League
Of Nations, but would give considera
tion to an Invitation to Join the league.
President-elect Harding has re
turned from his trip to the Canal
Zone, presumably with enlarged views
on the building up of trade with the
Latin-American republics and the cul
tivation of better relations with them.
Also tt may be assumed that he has
learned a lot about the need of strong
er defenses for the Panama canal.
Mr. Harding made a brief stop last
week in Jamaica where he was re
ceived as royalty would have been. It
was announced that he would be In
Washington Monday and would occu
py his seat In the senate for a day
or two, and it was certain that hia
colleagues would call on him for an
address.
The senate and house dunmlttees
on agriculture began a Joint session
on Friday to consider emergency
measures for the relief of American
fanners who are said to face a loss
of 17,000,000,000 through sale of their
products at less than coat Among
the suggestions discussed were the Im
position of a tariff on Canadian wheat
the revival of the war finance corpor
ation, and extensions of credit to Rus
sia and Germany to enable them to
purchase American term products.
According to Senator Capper, the
farmers demand. In addition to those
remedies, the following:
"Adequate credit for farmer*
through short time and long-time loana
adapted fairly and practically to the
peculiar conditions of the farming
business.
"Afford farmers the same credit so
commodatlons now , afforded other
lines of business.
"Abolish-gambling In wheat" cotton,
corn, and all farm produce.
"Full legal authority for nation-wide
co-operative marketing by farmers.

"A national board. In

"Broaden and strengthen the fed

"Tariff revision to protect American
agriculture.
"Protection for wool growers

SCOOTS AT ROOSEVELT GRAVE
Boy scouts within a radius of fifty
miles of New York city made a memo
rial pilgrimage to the grave of Theo
dore Koosevelt on Friday, Nov. 26, the
day following Thanksgiving. The pil
grimage wao under the leadership of
Daniel Carter Bedrg, national scout
commissioner, who was one of the very
close friends of President Roosevelt.
Each boy scout council In this ter
ritory selected a delegation of individ
ual, honor scouts and troops. The num
ber that participated reached sever*!
thousand. It is proposed to .make the
trip an annual memorial In honor of
the man who was the American boys'
Ideal, and who was at one time honor
ary president -of the Boy Scouts of
America, and was known as the Chief
Scout
The scouts were transported from
their various local headquarters \o
Oyster Bay In automobiles, trains, -and
by boat They mobilized there and
then hiked to' Sagamore Hill and to
the Roosevq|t tomb, where appropriate
scout memorial services were held,
with addresses by several speakers, in
cluding Lleut.-Col. Theodore Roose
velt, who recently became a mMPher
of the executive board of the boy

father's enthusiasm for scouting.

sioner Beard, who is familiarly known
as "Uncle Dan" to the hundreds of
thousands of boy scouts. "The pilgrim
age to the tomb of Roosevelt was
a lesson In patriotism of the kind that
makes for better cltizendilp, which is
a fundamental object of the boy scout
movement. President Roosevelt had
all the picturesque qualities of a boys'
hero. He was an out-of-doors man, a
buckskin man, explorer, h true scout
of the old American type; beloved
by boys, and was always Interested In
things boys are interested • in. The
purpose is to Impress upon the boys
that participated, and through them to
Impress upon other boys those splen

Roosevelt as shown by the events in
his life which it shonld be the aim 'of
every American boy to follow. Ameri

If Ytu Need a Medicine
You Should How the Best
Have you ever stopped to reason why
it is tnat so many products that are ex
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is plain—the article did not fulfill
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to a medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has teal
curative value almost sells itself, as like
sa endless chain system the remedy Is
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need of it.
A prominent druggist says "Take for
example Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, a
preparation I have sold for many yean
and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every case it shows excellent re
sults, as many of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy has so large a
tale."
According to sworn statements snd
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of Dr.
Kilmer's Swamp-Root is due to the fact,
sd many people claim, that it fulfills al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments; corrects uri
nary troubles and neutralizes the urio
acid which causes rheumatism.
You may receive a sample bottle of
Swamp-Root by Parcels Post. Addresa
