Farrand Appointed
Executive Head Of
American Red Cross

Washington, Feb. 2.-Dr. Living
ston Farrand of the University of
Colorado, has been appointed chair
man of the central committee of the
American Red Cross by President
Wilson at Paris. It was said at Red
Cross headquarters here today that
DR.. Farrand would assume the posi-
ton of executive head of the or
ganization on March |, and that at
the same time the Red Cross war
council would cease to exist.
The war council was created by
President Wilson May 10, 1917, TO
administer the greatly increased
work of relief organizations neces-
STATED by the war. 1t largely dis
placed in authority the permanent
executive organization. Henry P.
Dawson, chairman of the war coun-
Gil, is now in Paris with the presi-
dent in connection with work at the
peace conference and his presence
there probably will be required for
many weeks.
DR.. Farrand is in Washington fa-
miliarizing himself wit hthe details
of the Red Cross organization.
When he takes office the Red Cross

Historic American
Doctrine Affected
by League Project

Paris, Feb. 1.-THE announce
ment in news dispatches from
New York that representatives of
British and American oil, mining
and cattle interests in Mexico
were coming to Paris to lay their
claims before the peace confer
ence is attracting much attention
in American government circles
and is causing speculation as to
how Mexican affairs may be pre-
sented, if at all.
Mexico has not been connected
directly with the war and the
opinion in official circles is that
business interests of foreign pow
ers which have suffered confsca-
ton in Mexico probably can not
get a hearing in Paris until the
society of nations is organized
fully and the main issues connect
ed with the war passed upon.
Under the Monroe doctrine the
United States naturally would be
consulted before any steps were
taken to bring about an adjust
ment Of the friction between Mex
leo and foreign powers. AS a
result the Mexican difficulties are
being watched eagerly because Of
the possibility that they may in
dicate how the society of nations
will affect historic American pols
icy.

British Parliament
to Mark Time Until
Lloyd George Returns
By Associated Press.

London, Feb. 2.-No British par
lament in a century, except the
parliament of Premier Asquith.
which had on its shoulders the
heavy responsibility of deciding
whether or not Great Britain would
enter the European war, ever met
with more important work to be
dealt with than shat Of Premier
Lloyd George.
All the problems may be sum
married in the one word-recon-
struction.
Premier Lloyd George is in Paris
and he must stay there. No one ex-
poets him to leave the peace con-
ference.
Leadership in the two houses of
parliament, therefore, for the time
being, will fall upon Earl Curzon
and Andrew Bonar Law, both of
whom are conservatives and before
the war stood for almost everything
that was opposed to Lloyd George
and his present program That
seems to mean that parliament will
mark time until the prime minister
can return and take charge in per-
son.

REVISION
Of ANTITRUST
LEGISLATION
Proposals to Meet Post War
Conditions Submitted by
U. S. Chamber of
Commerce.

Washington, Feb. Proposals
that antitrust legislation, including
both the Sherman and Clayton acts,
be revised by congress to meet post
war conditions and that standards
of general business conduct be es-
tablished by the government and
administered by supervisory body
have been submitted by the United
States Chamber of Commerce.
The recommendations, drawn by
the chambers federal trade commits
sion and made public tonight, are:
That congress should at once con-
slider the situation of all statutes
constituting antitrust legislation.
Standards Needed.
That there should be formulated
standards of general business CON
duct to be administered by a super
visory body.
That an enlarged federal trade
commission should be made the
supervisory body with its member
ship increased from FIVE to nine.
The referendum was declared to
be yin line with the action of the
conference held at Atlantic City last
December under the auspices OF the
national chamber. This conference
went on record in favor of such
modification of the Sherman anti
trust law as would enable the busi-
ness interests of the county to CO.
operate intelligently in conducting
their affairs and increasing effici-
ency.
Time for Action Has Come.
The committees report said, there
was especial occasion now for con-
sideration Of such legislation as that
recommended. 1t pointed to con-
centration of commercial and indus
trial activity to meet the needs OF
the government and the civilian pop
ulation in the war and the vastly
changed conditions which business
interests face in the after r-the-war
period.
IF it was true, as the president
said in 1917" said the report, "that
nothing then discouraged business
enterprises like the necessity OF
running risk Of falling under the
condemnation of the law before 1T
is possible to make sure just what
the law is, this Encouragement op-
crates with greatly increased effect
at time when the special concen-
tration of business activity for the
war is being succeeded by condi-
tions which contain more uncertain
ties than ever before existed.'

sure, regarded by leaders as the
most urgent matters at hand. Regu-

Congestion of legislation caused

sessions in both senate and house
may begin soon.
Advocates Of the Susan B. An

holding conferences regarding pro-
cedure, with some urging a vote next
Friday in the senate. They admit,
however, that the required two

secured.
