been designated as high commissioner
OF This country at the Turkish capital.
and mad been invested with diplomatic
authority which enables him TO take
charge OF political matters"
This announcement followed the
publication today OF dispatches stat
ing that the peace conference and

fact that Admiral Bristol had warned
Turkey that ma ssac-es of Armenians
must cease.
lnasmuch as this would probably be
the first step taken on the assumption
of Il mandatory by the United States

as indicating that such a condition was
being anticipated by the Navy Depart
ment on orders from this government.
At any rate, the effect of this action is
that the United states. mandate or
no mandate. is determined upon the
protection of Armenians.
Ii was stated that news from Con
stantinople indicated Turkey had COM
planned about Admiral Bristors action
TO England and France. and that there
had been sharp criticism among mem
hers OF the peace conference.
