ARMENIA OFFERS
 ALL RESOURCES
 ASA GUARANTEE
Hearing on Resolution Au- thorizing Sending Ameri- can Troops to Check
 Turks Is Concluded
By Associated rress

Washington. October 10.-All the re- sources of Armenia were offered tho United States as a guarantee for pay ment of any financial assistance which America might extend to that country by A. Katchaznouni. former Armenian premier, who appeared today before a Senate foreign relations sub commit- tee.
 The former premier. accompanied by Dr. Garo Pasdermadjian, the new Ar menian governments representative in . Washington, presented an earnest ap- peal for military aid to the sub com . mittee which is considering a resolu- |. tion authorizing the President to send troops to Armenia to check the Turks and the Tartars. Hearings on the resolution were concluded today and the subcommittee is expected to make it's report next~week.
 Both the former premier and the governments special representative here insisted that the chief and es- sential feature of any military pro gramme was the carrying of the Amer ican flag into Armenia The moral effect of the presence, even of small force of Americans under their own colors would go far towards the restoration of order, they said. and agreed with Senator Harding of Ohio. chairman of the subcommittee, that much and possibly sufficient good would result from sending of an Amer . ican battleship to Batoun with small force of marines.
 g James W. Gerard, former ambassador 2 to Germany, in a brief laid before the committee, suggested that Congress pass a resolution favoring the inde- pendence of Armenia, including Rus sian Armenia and the seven provinces of Cilicia in Turkish Armenia.

BESSEMER NEWS

Bessemer, October 10.-(Special) )-That t Bessemer contractors are not anxious for building contracts was demonstrated Fri day afternoon when the board of educa- .tion postponed letting a contract for the grammar school unit, which will be built on Eighteenth street and Fifth avenue, on account of having received only one bid for the work It was decided to ask for more bids and to postpone letting the contract until next week.
 The unit will consist of four session rooms, to be used for the primary grades, and will adjoin the Roberts school The need of the school unit is most urgent on account of the crowded condition of the Roberts school. One of the basement rooms is being used for a primary grade, and pupils of the first grade are being taken at different hours to accommodate the overflow, a teacher being employed to teach a large class in the afternoon from to o clock. The building will be rushed. but it is thought that it will not be ready before the last of the present term.
 All arrangements have been made for a teachers training school to be held at the First Baptist church beginning Sunday, October 19. Several books will be com spleted during the course that will be of valuable information for Sunday school teachers, and many teachers of other de- nominations will avail themselves of the opportunity for course of training. The Sunday school of the First Baptist church has recently reorganized the teachers. and meetings are being held every Wednesday evening at o'clock The Secret of Sunday School Teach ing being taught by one of the super intendents of the departments at each session.

ITALY AGREES ID BUFFER STATE IN
 HUME TERRITORY
Approval of Plan Condi- tiOnal on Protection of Italain Interests in
 Proposed State
By Associated Pres,

Washington, October 1O.-Information has reached Washington that the Italian government has agreed to the creation of buffer state comprising Plume and the adjacent coastal territory southward to. Breccia as solution of the Adriatic problem. The approval of the plan is conditioned on the protection of Italian interests in the proposed state by the adoption of Italian methods of procedure and the confirmation of Ttalys title to the former district of Plume in the in- terior and along the coast to the west ward. This is regarded by the Italians as absolutely necessary as a strategic military measure to insure the safety of Pola and other Italian Adriatic cities.
 For the same military reasons the sane tion of the plan is made conditional on the acceptance of the proposal that the Island of Cherso should be Italian though the Island of Vegia may be turned over to the new state. Some DOT tions of lstria, too, are regarded as es- sential to the Italian scheme of defense al present, at any rate, and until such time as the league of nations has shown it's ability to maintain an equilibrium in territorial matters.
 ihS ildlidH SoVerHHieHt' lnlofmdt4oil here is, has decided to go thus far to meet the demands of President Wilson on which the British and French gov ernments placed the responsibility for the disposition of the first plan for an Ital- ian administration for Plume. The idea of buffer state is said to have been preached by the President, so that if America now is willing to accept the conditions which Italy has tackled on to that plan it is believed a final satisfac- tory settlement of the issue which en- dangers the existence of the Italian gov ernment can be secured.
 D'Annunzio who so far has rejected every effort at compromise, is believed in official circles here to be willing to yield his own Judgment and retire from

Seven thousand persons each year are

attention to the cause. What are you do
ing? Are you neglecting yourself by
wearing a truss. appliance, or whatever
name you choose to call it, At best, the
truss is only a makeshift-a false prop
against a collapsing wall--and cannot be
expected to act as more than mere
mechanical support. The binding pressure
retards blood circulation, thus robbing the
weakened muscles of that which they need
But science has found way, and every
