GOVT lU!)'Tl' DECLARES
FRANCE HAS A
CLAIM IN ASIA
Orient Long Protected by
Capital and Efforts
Of France.

Paris, Jan. 3.-(Correspondence OF
the Associated Press)-The rights"
Of France to guide the destinies OF
Syria. Lebanon and Armenia-Minor
were expounded to the Associated
Press today by M. Govt, director for
Asia. in the French foreign office. M.
Gout asserted that it had long been
the role Of France to protect the help
less peoples of the orient and recalled
i~nterventions by rance in Syria and
Lebanon to defend the Christians and
that France had played a great part
in .,the defense Of the Armenians in
1895 and 1896. =.
France" he said, worked not
only to protect Christians but she also
sent missionaries into all parts Of
Turkey, not for the purpose OF
PROSECUTING but for teaching n char
liable work. Before h war there
were French schools in all sections Of
Turkey, and in the great towns there
were French hospitals for the care of
The poor. In Syria especially the num-
Der of French schools was consider
able. In Beirut we had a large uni
versity, and I must add that the
Americans also had one, working for
the civilization Of the Syrian people.
A great number Of physicians were
bred in the French universities.
NJ. Govt called attention to the fact
that French capital and industry had
created three of the four ports Of Asia
Minor, and pointed to the great rail-
ways built and controlled by the
French. The first road opened between
Damascus and the coast. the Damas-
cus-Beirut..line. was French, he said.
1t was also a French society which
before the war undertook the repair
of roads in many parts of the Ottoman

empire. and . French company hadya
concession for q big railway in Ar
menia. Tho important silk industry Of
syria, he added, had been fosteredfand
developed by France.
I'VE may point out also the great
share Of France in the public debt Of
Turkey, which is nearly sixty percent"
he continued. THE share Of England
before the war was ten or twelve per-
cent, that Of Italy nearly five percent,
and Germany had all the rest. !.
There Is another important phase
OF the question. You know about the
great number Of monasteries and re-
ltgious institutions in Jerusalem. For
u French Catholics Jerusalem is a
sent money and missionaries to pro-
mote the Catholic influence in this
holy town.
This sums up a large part Of the
claims of France. in Asia Minor, and
I believe that M. Pichon (French
foreign minister) was entitled to
speak of u rights there. He was the
more entitled to do so in view of the
denominations committed against the
Armenians and syrians BY Turkish
u%nion1sts early in the war;"
Referring to the treaty signed by
France and England while the war
was in progress under which France
was to have supervision of Syria,
Lebanon and Armenia-Minor, M.
Govt added:
"At that time France and England
thought it necessary after the war to
give to all these populations q certain
future and autonomy. But we were
obliged to note that in these countries
there are a large number Of races and
religions. Great differences exist be-
tween these religions and races. It is
not possible to give these countries
uncontrolled independence. Their best
people also agree that it is necessary
to have, not a master, but a sort Of
arbitrator and guide to civilization"

DESTRUCTION

Odessa, Jan. 6.-(Correspondence
Of the Associated Press.)-Police pro-
lection by the Russians in Odessa is
so ineffective that street robberies at
the pistol point are frequent after
dusk and no night passes without
considerable ring. Armed bands have
been so bold that they have attacked
business houses in daylight. French
troops, however, r taking command
of the situation by organizing patrols
and the Russian governor has pro-
claimed martial law.
At Bolshevik meetings reported at
Kiev and other Ukrainian cities, agi-
tators are discussing the seizure of
power and the creation Of a Ukrain-
ian state. 1t is declared that IS per
cent Of the Kiev Soviet are Com
munists.
Those most competent to judge the
Ukrainian situation from the stand
in the bud urge Allied Intervention
pending the organization Of the , ra-
tional elements to recover from the
stunning blows Of the past year. AL
lied counsel in the settlement of
agrarian and other problems would
be invaluable.
Material aid in the shape of goods
at fair prices would be an earnest Of
the Allies intentions and would go
far. to dispel in the eyes Of peasants
and workmen the Bolshevik fictions
concerning the Exploiting ambitions
of the Allied imperialists and<capital-
ists." 1t is declared here that non
Intervention would merely place Rus
STA at the mercy of the Bolsheviki and
eventually play into German hands.
Many receptions and entertain
ments are being given for Allied Of
f1cers and men.
An address presented by the
women of Odessa to the Allied forces
expressed the conviction that gener.
Gus France and all the faithful Allies
have not forgotten the first years Of
the war, when Russia proved her
valor on Prussian and Austrian
battlef1elds and sacrificed the flower
Of her patriotic youth"

WILL IT PAY?
Should Missouri Farmers Use Fcrtil'
iler on Corn In Order 10 Get u
Quick Maturing Cropy

The early frost Of 1917, which re-
suited in a very large amount Of soft
corn throughout the corn belt, has
given the fertilizer companies oppor-
tunities TO advertise the use Of ferti-
lizer for Fastening the maturity Of the
corn crop. The question is, how val
liable are fertilizers in Fastening ma
turity and Is their use justifiable for
this purpose? NJ. +. Miller OF the
University OF Missouri College Of Ag-
riculture answers Il as follows:
All experiments show that the use
Of available prosphates hastens the
maturity Of grain crops. In the case
of corn the maturity may be brought
about a week or two earlier and a
sounder product secured. However,
there are other considerations which
must be kept in mind in using fertil-
izer for corn in Missouri. The most
important Of these is the effect Of
dry weather upon the efficiency Of
the fertilizer. Experiments show that
when the weather Is very dry during
July and August little return may be
expected from fertilizer. However,
the final effect upon the crop is de-
termined largely by the time the
drouth comes on. II the drouth is
late, the corn will naturally be past
the most susceptible stage and will
not be seriously injured. II 1t comes
in July, and early August, the injury

ABOUT BURNING CORN STALKS.
should the Farmer Burn orr III,
stalk Fields This Spring?

II Is still u common practice, in
many parts OF Missouri, for farmers
10 burn the corn stalks from their
fields. Much IL written in the press
against this practice. There may be.
however cases where the burning of
corn stalks is justified, says NJ. r.
Miller, OF the University Of Missouri
College Of Agriculture. Such cases
are those where the land Is very rich
and well supplied with organic mat.
ter, such as rich bottom lands. There
Is no doubt that better seed bed can
be prepared with a given amount of
labor where the stalks are first burn
ed. The difficulty in such practice
lies In the fact that II is an exhaustive
one to the soil, and II can be justified
only In cases Of very rich land, or in
case OF labor shortage where the
farmer has not Time TO disk the soil
and thus cut up the stalks before
blowing. On the average soils of Mis-
souri, the burning of stalks is always
bad practice.
The stalks from a fifty-bushel corn
crop contain about twenty four pounds
OF nitrogen, about three pounds of
PHOSPHORUS, and twenty-six pounds of
potassium. In burning. the nitrogen
only Is lost to the soil, although nat
urally the PHOSPHORUS and potassium
which remain in the ashes are left
along the line Of windows, rather
than distributed over the field. OF
course, one would rarely expect to
replace that nitrogen in commercial
tertilizer' but IL he should, this "a
