How is the country to use this in

is plain. SO plain that this news

It, Browning complained that never

one We're all together. But here is a
complete refutation of that cynicism.
Under the proposed constitution of
the League of Nations. the United
States is liable at any moment to be
named the mandatory for Turkey A
mandatory implies a grand vizier.
Now do you see?
If we are to provide a grand vizief
for the Turks. all Americans will want
to provide the best the country af-
fords They will want one who will
shine. They will want a man than

Turk must be vlziered in style and

Who IS there fitted for the Job-fitted
by his clothes, by his graces. by his

splendor of his Imagination and the

Senator Lewis should ponder this

BITTER FEELING
AGAINST WILSON
Resentment Caused by Selection OF
Geneva as Capital of League

PARIS, Friday, April II (Associated

in French and Belgian quarters over Sc
lecting Geneva as the capital of the
league of nations The fact that President
Wilson's speech in behalf of Geneva was
wholly responsible for the choosing Of
the Swiss city as against Brussels is great
ly resented.
you will not dare to choose a city as
the capital of the league of nations which
incarnatese the enmity between races-a
city which has been wronged, doubtless,
but which makes a reconciliation between
the peoples of Europe more distant by
the very wrongs it has suffered Pres
dent Wilson is reported to have said to
the delegates in arguing against the choice
of Brussels.
Paul Hymans, Belgian minister of for
eign affairs, particularly resented the fact
that the subcommittee celebrating upon
the choice of the seat OF the league never
discussed the offer made by Burgomaster
Max Of Brussels of the Egsnont palace.
Had London, Paris, Rome or Washing

I'VE would have withdrawn with good
grace. But when a small city was decided
on we feel that it is Belgum's right from
material and sentimental point of view
that Brussels should have been chosen
