RESTORATION Is A
WORLD PROBLEM
SUPREME COUNCIL SAYS ECO
NOMIC PLANS CANNOT BE
LOCALIZED.

London. - The Supreme Council
has issued a memorandum on world
economic conditions. It's conclusions
are as follows:
Firstly-It is of paramount impor-
lance that peace conditions should be
fully and completely restored at the
earlist possible moment throughout
the world.
To achieve this object it is desir-
able (firsD that peace and normal
economic relations should be re-es-
tablished at the earliest possible mo-
ment throughout eastern Europe;
(second) that armies everywhere
should be reduced to a peace footing,
that ornaments should be limited to
the lowest possible figure compatible
with national security, and that the
League of Nations should be invited
to consider as soon as possible to
this end; (third) that states which
have been created or enlarged as a
result OF the war should Immediately
re-esta blish full and friendly cooper
alton and arrangement for unrestrict
ed interchange of commodities in or
der that the essential unity Of Euro
pean economic lift may not be i'm
paired by the erection Of artificial eco
nomic barriers.
Secondly-Not only the government
of each country, but all those engag
ed in the task of production In every
land should give immediate attention
to the execution of all measures
which will contribute to the full re
sumption of peaceful industry, to the
encouragement of a better output b!
workers in every country, to the I'm
provement of machinery and means
of transportation, and the removal oil
such disturbing factors as profiteer
ing.
Thirdly-Each government immedf
ately should consider means for urg
ing upon it's nationals in every rank
of life the vital necessity Of suppress
sing extravaganza and reducing ex
penditure so as to bridge the gar
which must for some years exist be
tween the demand for and the supply
of essential commodities.

NEAR EAST TANGLE
WORRYING ENTENTE
PROSPECT OF MOSLEM AID FOR
TURKS is CAUSE FOR
ALARM.
WATCH SYRIAN CONGRESS-
Is Reported France Is Given Mandate
Over cilicia-Report is Unconfrmed
If Settled Year Ago the Trouble
Would Not Have Arisen.

London. - Earl Curzon's speech on
the Turkish problem. made in the
House Of Lords, and other official and
unofficial statements on the subject
are regarded as showing that the
Near East tangle is serious and is
threatened in connection with Syria
md Mesopotamia. The shadow of
Indian and Moslem opinion darkens
the problem, and it is believed influ
ences the counsels of the allies more
than is always Immediately apparent.
Suggestion that the employment OF
force against the Turks might excite
general hostility in the MUssulman
world is regarded as one that cannot
safely be ignored. In some quarters
It is believed there is danger if the
Turks are pressed they may imme
diately be joined by the Arabs. The
Italian view that it would be danger
Gus to employ against the Turks Brit
ish Moslem and other Moslem troops
in the service of the allies is evidently
based on these fears.
Careful watch is being kept here
on the outcome of the Syrian con
gress at Damascus, and It is said any
decision or proposal by the peace con
ference regarding Syria would be
purely tentative.
Among the reports was one that
France had been given mandate
over Cecilia, but this was unconfirm
ed. 1t is argued in some quarters that
Frances hans are too full to under
take this responsibility. Great Britain
is believed t6 be ruled out as a man
datory for the same reason, and the
League OF Nations is looked to as the
only hope for protecting Turkeys non
Moslem subjects.
Earl Curzon's statement attributinf
the cause of the Turkish trouble to
awaiting action by the United State:
is not commented on by some editoria
writer's, but others say that If set
Element had been taken a year ago
when Turkey was militarily humbled
the present trouble would not have
arisen.
