HINT OF WILSON PROMISE
Cables Tell of Need of Troops

Warlike Activities.
speetal Despatch to Tnn sus


WASHINGTON, Sept. 30.-All Europe,
especially the allied Powers, would be
more than delighted to have the United
States take a mandate for the admins
tration of Armenia, was the frank pres
entation made to-day to the sub-com-
mittee of the Foreign Relations Commit
tee by William Phillips, Assistant Secre-
tary OF State.
The subcommittee was appointed a
fortnight ago to consider the resolution
by Senator williams (NIiss) authorizing
the President to use the military and
naval forces of the United States in
Armenia if 1t seemed to him desirable.
The Senate, regardless of party, is con-
WINGED that the President has given some
form of assurance to his Paris colleagues
that he will relieve them of the Ar
menian embarrassment by getting the
United States to take II Off their hands.
Senators Harding (Ohio), New Qnd)
and Williams constitute the sub-com-
mittee. Mr. Phillips was heard in ex-
ecutive committee because many Of the
matters which he wished TO lay before
the committee were such that their pub
lea ion was not regarded as desirable.
After the session Senator New said II
was obvious why publicity was not de-
sired.
Mr.. Phillips told of general conditions
in Armenia and OF the persistent eff
forts OF Turks and Tartars to wipe out
Tho Armenian people.
Capt George Hyde of the Army
Medical Corps. who has had service in
Armenia, described his observation OF
conditions and of how outrages con-
stantly are perpetrated against the
Armenian people. The kidnapping OF
Armenian girls who are carried away
to Turkish harems is a common pro-
ceeding. The massacres are on such a
scale that the existence of the Arme-
MAN people is threatened.

An American Brigade Needed.

Some correspondence has taken place
between the subcommittee and the
American mission in Paris which was
given out by the committee. One cable
from the mission read:
with regard to the military require
ments of the present situation in the
Caucasus the American mission in Paris
has received the following telegraphic
Information from Col Haskell. who per-
sonally investigated conditions in Ar
menia and stated he found the situation
horrible beyond description. Col Haskell
states that relief can and will reach
In time to prevent attacking II
he, Col. Haskell, be provided with
troops and the situation in Russian
Armenia will be saved by the
equivalent of an American brigade Of
reinforced infantry. Col. Haskell states
that Tartars are attacking on the South
and East, with Tartar uprisings, which
are increasing throughout the interior.
In his opinion the fate of our Armenian
allies might be decided by the arrival
of even one regiment. Unless troops
are rushed the Armenians may at any
time be exterminated.'
Secretary Phillips laid before the COM
mlttee also a long communication from
the American Commissioner at Constan-
tinople as follows:

LODGE CERTAIN SENATE WON'T

(Continued From Page One.)
 when the Senate went into session at noon to cons der final ratification and
 to possibly bring to an end today the long fight over the treaty.
 Just before the Senate convened while the Democratic seantors were meeting, Republican Leader Lodge held a conference with Will H. Hays. chairman of the Republican National Committee.
 The decision of Democratic friends of the treaty to vote against a rat i ification resolution containing the Hodge reserva ions was affirmed at the confevrence of Democrats. Sen ator Hitchcock said enough Demo- crats to insure it's defeat had agreed to vote against the Lodge resolution. No compromise plan was drafted by the Democrats but it was suggest | ed that after the prospective defeat l of the Lodge reservation, a commit | tee of Democrats would be appointed | to confer with the Republicans to | that end.
 l Immediately the Senate met, Sena- ] tor Lodge formally presented the res 1 olution of ratification containing the
 15 resolutions adopted by a majority | of the Senate.
 | Although the Democratic stand was declared in Republican quarters to l have diminished the chances of a compromise, it was learned that a proposal to modify the preamble res i ervation of the committee so that the
 reservations would not have to have affirmative acceptance by the other powers had been under serious con-
 sideration by the Republican leaders. It was understood that the Repub-
 Ecans had manifested a willingness l to insert a proviso by which the res
 ervations could be accepted by the other powers by their merely not ] objecting to- them.
 At the outset, Senator Lodge asked
 unanimous consent for an immediate
 vote on unqualified ratification. Ad- i ministration Leader Hitchcock said the Democrats preferred to wait un- til the Lodge resolution had been voted on. Senator Lodge then with | drew his request, and the debate on
 the Lodge resolution began.

ROB STORE IN HEART OF CITY.
 LAST EVENING
(Continued From Page One )

The rear door was bo1ted. and barred with several large pieces of wood, but the burglars removed these obstructions, and used the door as a means of exit. This door was found open this morning.
 The robbery was first discovered about 7:30 o'clock this morning, when an employee entered the store and found suits and pieces of cloth scat tered about the floor. The rear door was open, and several show cases and clothes racks had been thoroughly cleaned out. The police were inn mediately notified, and an investiga- ton was started at once.
 Last nights robbery makes the fifth time that the Nunnold store has been entered. On one occasion about two years ago the shop was entered and Sl5OO worth of ~~o7e was stolen.

GARFIELD SAYS
 PEOPLE WILL
 BE GIVEN GOAL
(Continued From Page one.)

(Contfnued From Page One.) miners and operators in the central competitive field went into executive session today to negotiate a wage contract, after Federal Fuel Admin S. trator Garfield had urged upon them the necessity for adjusting their diff ferences and producing the coal the country needs.
 7 T represent he people of the Unit ed States in a different sense from the Secretary of Labor" pr. Garfield said. Tt is part of MT. Wilson's func tion to effect conciliation. It is my sole function to exercise those powers conferred on the fuel administration; to see that an adequate supply of coal is furnished the people of the United States and to see that in times of stress such as we are unhappiIy in the midst, the prices asked and re- ceived for coal are not excessive.
 I've all realize now that in the great coal industry the public is a partner. At one time the operators and miners. like farmers, considered themselves peculiarly in power. But the public has a paramount interest.
 '"The people of the United States will not consent to pay an excessive price for coal. We are all agreed to that, but the question now is what is an excessive price?" nor will the pub lie agree to go without this com modity.
 The people of the United States, need, must have, and will have, coal, and they will not be prevented by anything the operators and miners may do unless the government is dis solved into a chaotic condition.
 'The people of the United States are willing to pay sufficient to main tain American standards, but the question is what are American stand ards? The people want the operators to have just return, but what is a just return? %
 Dr. Garfield said he was not yet prepared to say what changes could reasonably be made in the price ot coal, as all the necessary data was not in hand. One of the items not yet determined, he said, was that of the Federal income taxes for 1918, which the operators have claimed should be | included in the cost of operation. The government has disputed this.

"On that I cannot hesitate, for in my opinion the resolution in that form does not provide for ratifica- ton, but rather for the nulliication of the treaty.

 ''I understand that the door will then probably be open for a genuine resolution of ratification.
 T trust that all true friends of the treaty will refuse to support the Lodge resolution.
