is the next~epoch-making feat
of aviation. according to views

Secretary Daniels regards the
things accomplished already as
far from anything merely spec

full Of substance for the future
commerce of the world and the
linking together of all its lands,
as could be done in no other
way than by the airplane.

not only fly across the Atlantic

MUSSULMANS GO TO
AID OF THE SULTAN.

Paris, May l9.--Deposit1ons tnat
have been made before the council
Of four by Edwin Samuel Montague,
British secretary for India, the ma
harajah Of Bikanir. and Mussulman
delegates from India, have, accord
ing TO the Temps, produced an inn
preston which may affect the set
tlement of the Turkish problem in
some particulars. Ny. =.
The Mussulmans laid emphasis
upon the fact that they had taken
a preponderant part in the opera
tions against Turkey, Germany's
ally, and recalled an engagement
that had been made that advantage
was not to be taken of victory to
humiliate Islam in the person of the
sultan. 90
Although no decision has been
taken, says the Temps. it appears
likely that the plan adopted will
respect the integrity of Turkey
proper, excluding the notably Arabic
countries.

FORM OF LEAGUE SAYS HUNS MUST

Republican Leader Thinks
Majority Of Senate
Favors Amendment to.
Covenant.

Washington, May Ex-senator
Lodge, republican leader, and chair
man of the foreign relations COM
mittee, in statement tonight de-
clared the revised league of nations
"is unacceptable" and predicted it
would not be accepted by the ma
jority of the senate without amend
ment.
Characterizing the new league
covenant as included in sthe peace
treaty as distinctly worse than the
old, and more dangerous to the
peace of the world and to American
rights and interests" Senator Lodge
declared that none of the sugges-
tons from the senate or from Elihu
Root had been carried out.
Amendments Necessary.
Senator Lodges statement fol-
lows:
$50 far as I can judge-and / have
had conversations with many sena-
tors, including members of>both par
ties-I am satisfied that majority
of the senate feels very strongly
that the league as now presented
must receive amendment; that in
its present form, without any
change, it is unacceptable, and would
not be accepted.
ITO say that the amendments put
forward in the senate, and those
proposed and formulated by Mr..
Root on the suggestion of the State
department have been met is with
out any foundation. Not one of the
suggestions of the senate, not one
of the amendments proposed by Mr..
Root, has been carried out. Some
have been entirely rejected, and
where there is an appearance. of
their having been adopted. examina-
ton shows that the new form is dis
tinctly worse than the old and more
dangerous to the peace of the world
