The answers of the allies to the
notes already submitted by the Ger
mans could not have given the latter
much encouragement as to results.
When they complained of the taking of
mines and nitrate beds they were told
the treaty did not prevent their buying
minerals and nitrates from other ma
tions; when they objected to the loss
Of their mercantile shipping and the
consequent loss Of employment for
their sailors, they were reminded that
the allies were not thus nearly COM
pensated for their losses due to sub
marine ravages; and when they said
Germany would be unable to feed her
population If deprived of agricultural
lands, they We're told the reduction of
population through the loss of territory
left her fewer mouths to feed. and the
Germ; MS could easily obtain agricul-
tural products from other countries.
The attitude of the allied delegates
is tlint their countries have suffered
far too much already. and 1t is the
turn of Germany, and they assert the
GER an people cannot shirk the re-
spOnsibility for the war because of
partial and perhaps nominal change In
their form of government and in its
personalities. Such, indeed, was the
substance of the reply of the council
Of four to the German note regarding
reparations, in which the Hun dele
gates declared Germany would not ad-
nit responsibility. They were told II
was too late to take such position
and that 1t was impossible to disasso-
ciate responsibility from reparatiOn.
Having asserted the German people
would not have undertaken war of
aggression, they are reminded that
they approved of Secretary Lansing's
note of November g. 1918, in which 1t
was stated that the obligation to
make reparation "arises out of Ger
many's aggression by land. sea and
air." The Germans asked that the re-
port of the commission on responsible
fty be communicated to them this was
peremptorily refused.
OF course 1t is apparent that in try
ing to disclaim the responsibility Of

Continued fighting between the Poles
and the Ukrainians gave the delegates
added trouble. for the Ukrainians, who
were losing ground in Gallcia, com
planned bitterly, blaming the insane
policy of the allies In supporting the
Poles" Paderewski apparently cannot
compel his countrymen to cease hos
tilities, and the council of four took
under consideration the wisdom of
giving further support to any people
who refuse to obey orders from the
conference. Jews throughout the world
also have been aroused against the
Poles by reports of bloody pogrOms in
which thousands of their race have
been slain, and mass-meetings of pro-
test We're held last week in the larger
American cities. The leaders of the

What shall be done with Turkey?
was a question that occupied the atten-
ton of the council of four last week,
President Wilson acting rather In an
advisory capacity since America was
not at war with the Porte. Some Of the
delegates wish the sultan to be re-
moved to a small territory In Asia
Minor and Constantinople turned over
TO the United States under mandate.
The Indian delegates. however, fear
that to force the sultan to quit Con-
stantinople would cause great trouble
In the Mohammedan world. and there
fore the British prefer that he be left
there but with only spiritual powers.
Though 1t seems to be accepted that
America shall be the mandatory for
Armenia, 1t is not at all certain that
the American people would be willing
to take charge of the Turkish capital.

The suffragists are about to reap
the reward of their years of strenuous
effort. The house last week passed
resolution for a suffrage amendment
to the Constitution, and there seems
to be no doubt that the senate will
take similar action, for enough votes
are pledged. The vote In the house
was 304 to SO. most of the opposition
coming from the Southern Democrats
Spectacular success and tragic fail

though the crew was rescued, and the
third, after landing on the water "tax-
led" 205 miles to its port-a wonder
full achievement. The successful
plane was prepared for further flight
to Portugal and thence to England.
Pilot Hawker and Navigator Grieve,
in their Sopwith plane. undertook their
long-planned flight direct from New
foundland to Ireland, and met the fate
of so many pioneers. They never
reached land, and just what befeIl
them probably will be forever mys-

closed with the statement that the COM
mittee was informed that the suggested
new building could be built at an esti-
mated cost of s14, 900 exclusive of the cost
of the land which was given at about
$1,000. 1t was further stated that the
sum of $1,000 could be obtained for the

chairs conclusion there was n general
discussion of the proposition and one of

TURKISH PROBLEM
BECOMES ACUTE
Dismemberment of Empire May
Start Holy War, Peace
Delegations Think

Paris, May 81. (By the Associated
Press.)-The Turkish problem has be-
come most acute in the peace conference.
Various delegations are striving to find
some solution for the ACKNOWLEDGMENT of
the empire which will not provoke a re-
ligious war.
The United States is being looked to
by the other powers as the only nation
which can become the mandatory for
Constantinople without the danger of
precipitatng another European war, but
the American delegates to the peace
conference express doubt of the willing
ness of the United States to accept the
mandate, especially under the conditions
which the powers have outlined.
With the Sultan removed from Con-
stantinople, the American delegates exc
pressed the BELIEF that it might be pos
sibe for the American public to become
reconciled to the mandate. However.
the Indian delegation which has ap-
peared before the Council Of Four to
plead for special consideration for the
feelings of the Mohammedan world as
well as other Mohammedans who have
made statements assert that the Sultan
must not be forced out of Constantinople,
declaring that such action would greatly
affect his standing in the church. Con-
sequently Great Britain Is seeking to
have the Sultan remain in Constantinople,
as head of the Mosle faith, but with
purely spiritual powers.
1t is now suggested that instead %
transferring the Sultan to a strip OF
territory somewhere in Asia Minor
that he remain in Constantinople but
be allowed to exercise a degree of
temporal power over some territory in
Asia Minor to be selected, thus pre-
serving the form of the Ottoman En-
pire. Such a plan, it is asserted. would
prevent the obliteration of Turkish
pre-war debts and necessitate the
framing of a peace treaty with the
empire.
The American commission discussed
this plan yesterday, but apparently
there was considerable difference of
opinion among the delegates. Some
of them feel that the United States
probably would be unwilling to ac-
cept the Constantinople mandate under
any conditions in the event it accepts
the mandate for Armenia, which would
require large number of American
troops until such time as native
forces could be organized and the I'M
settled conditions controlled.
Military experts declare that Con-
stantinople could be controlled entirely
by the navy and policed under direc-
ton of the marines. The probable
military force necessary to restore
order in Armenia and protect Armeni-
ans from their aggressive neighbors
has been variously estimated at from
$4,000 to 100000.

ALL ABOUT EGGS

In hens egg only one-ffth of the
substance is nutritious. One-ninth Is
refuse, and the greater portion, about
two-thirds, is water.
Judged by the amount of nutriment, q
goose's egg is the most valuable; next
in order are ducks, guinea fowls, hens
turkeys.
Eggs contain a large quantity of sui
phur, which is purifying to the blood and
good for tho complexion.
To get the best egg you must feed your
fowl on grain.
And to cook It in the most digestible
way you must not boil the water. Heat
the water of $50 degrees and leave the egg
In it for 10 minutes. You will then digest
every morsel. But If you boil It for three
minutes no less than one-twelfth OF il
will fail to be digested.- Stray Stories.
