wilson ACCEPTS Offer
President to Act as Mediator
for Armenia.
Actual Work on Peace Task Will Prob.
ably be Performed by Henry
Morganthau.

Washington-President Wilson has
accepted the offer rendered him by the
assembly of the League Of Nations to
act as mediator to settle hostilities be-
tween the Armenians and the Turkish
Nationalist forces under Renal Pasha,
it was announced by Secretary of State
Colby.
The actual work of mediation, it was
stated, will be performed by someone
who will be delegated for the task by
the President. Among the possibilities
for this delicate mission mention is
made of Henry Morganthau, United
States ambassador to Turkey.
Other names suggested in official
circles are General Tasker II. Bliss of
the United States military commission
at the Peace conferences; Norman H.
Davis, under-secretary of state, and
General John S. Harboard, who made
an investigation of the Armenian stu
alton for the President at the time the
mandate for that country was suggest
ed to the United States.
Secretary Colby's announcement of
the acceptance of the invitation by the
President and President Wilson's let
ter addressed to Paul Hymans, presi
dent of the League of Nations, who
extended the invitation, made it clear
that acceptance Of the offer to mediate
is totally distinct from the previous Of.
fer Of the League that the President
should take ever the Armenian man.
date.
The President points out that he
sould not accept the mandate without
she consent of the Senate; he accepts
the offer to mediate, however, in order
to end the hostilities now being waged
against the Armenians.

drive ON SMUGGLERS
Canada Begins War on Colossal
Crime Ring.
Former Prohibition Officers of Winni.
peg Are Charged With
Liquor Plotting.

Winnipeg-Canada's drive against
the colossal crime ring, which for
more than a year is reported to have
operated from headquarters in this
city smuggling liquor and drugs into
the United States and carrying on a
large part of it's illicit trade with the
aid of operatives in Minneapolis and
st. Paul, is under way.
Throughout Manitoba police officials
are conducting the cleanup with war
rants for the arrest Of more than 20
persons, three of whom are now ar
rested in connection with the liquor
traffic. Two of them are former Off
GERS of the Manitoba liquor law en-
forcemert department and they are
charged with attempting to bride an
official of the police department to
permit passage of $4,000 cases Of
whisky through Manitoba, the liquor
being destined for Minnesota and
North Dakota.
Cooperating with the provincial po-
lice, the city police took seven al
legged drug surveyors into custody and
warrants have been issued for nine
others who were expected to be ar
rested shortly.
Officials intimated that these two
drives were merely the beginning of
the campaign by which they hope to
break up the most gigantic crime syn
dictate in the history of the province.
They said that their information led
them tC believe that it would involve
a o of higherups responsible for
rum and drug running between Canada
and Minnesota and North Dakota
which has amounted to hundreds Of
thousands Of dollars every month.
In connection with the bribery
charges N. l.. McPhail, former chief
temperance officer of Winnipeg, was
arrested together with Joseph Beau
dry, formerly a law enforcement agent
under McPhail, and a mar who gave
the name of Sam S%teinberg. The three
appeared in police court and the case
was continued for a week. They are
now out on $40, 600 bail each. The
charge for which they were arrested
was an alleged attempt to ''1ix" a
liquor checker so that $4,000 cases OF
liquor might enter Manitoba without
knowledge Of the heads Of the law en-
forcement department. This liquor is
reported to have been destined for Min,
nesota and North Dakota points.

Supreme Council to Withdraw
Financial Help If Constan-
tine Is Returned.
WAIT FOR PLEBISCITE
Territorial ReprisaIs Are Likely if
Monarch is Enthroned-Powers
Claim Ability to Amend
Clauses in Sevres Treaty.

London-Tlle Allied Supreme coun-
Gil publicly announced it would with
draw financial support from Greece
should former King Constantine be re-
turned in the plebiscite, and consider
ed territorial reprisals should he be
enthroned.
Briefly summarized, the position of
the Allies is that they want to warn
the Greeks vigorously that their gov
eminent must conform to a great ex-
tent to the wishes of the Allies and
that if the admonitions relative to
withdrawal of financial support are in
effective, the Allies are prepared to
take even sterner measures which
were also discussed.
Treaty Not Ratified.
AS the Sevres treaty has not been
ratified it is within the power of the
Allies to modify it and they are keep
ing this fact to the fore at least as re-
CARDS Smyrna. 1t is known that some
of those at the conference expressed
the belief that Smyrna would be safer,
from the Allied standpoint, in Turkish
hands than in the hands of the Greeks
under Constantine.
The wish was expressed, however,
not to go SO far as to threaten the
Greeks before the plebiscite with re-
taking part of the territory allotted
them under the Sevres treaty.
While the premiers are in accord
thai the sternest measures should be
taken if Constantine is returned they
have not agreed on what stand to take
if the Greeks choose Prince George
for their king. In any event they con-
slider another conference will be neces-
sary to decide wha. shall be done if
Constantine wins or what steps shall
be taken if the Greeks vote otherwise.
Greek Cabinet Surprised.
Athens-The note sent by the
British, French and Italian govern
ments to Greece Thursday concerning
the possible return of former King
Constantine to power and the relations
between them and Greece in such an
event, caused CONSERVATION here. 1t
came as a complete surprise to the
Greek cabinet.

Federal Law for Refunding of
Rural Debts Proposed; Com
mittee Appointed.
CALLS SITUATION ACUTE
Proposal TO Finance Foreign Countries
for Purchase of American Farm
Products Made by Governor
Harding of Iowa.

Harrisburg, Pa.-GovernOra and
govenors-elect representing more than
half the states Of the union voted, at
their annual conference here, to be-
gin an inquiry into what was vari-
ously called the acute alarming"
and tragic situation facing farmers
of the country, with 4 view to recon-
mending Federal legislation to assist
them.
AS a first step toward carrying out
their plan, which was suggested by
Governor Harding of Iowa, the con-
ference appointed a committee con-
sisting Of Governors Harding, Beckett
Of North Carolina, Holcolmb Of Con-
necticut, Parker Of Louisiana, and
Goodrich Of Indiana to make a pre-
llmlnary survey and report back be-
fore the conclusion Of the conference.
After that, it is contemplated to send
the committee to Washington to urge
legislation before Congress.
Credit Extension SOUGHT.
The object of the state executives,
which is said to be without parallel
in tie history Of American govern
ment, is for the organization Of gov
errors to suggest to Congress, and
actively advocate, passage of legis-
lation necessary to refund the debts
of farmers who are pinched by falling
markets, with heavy stocks of surplus
products on hand, SO as to give them
a year OF more in which to recoup
losses and wait for strengthening mar
ket. 1t is proposed to do this through
extension or adaptation of the Federal
Reserve system.
Would Finance Foreign Countries.
A second proposal, also scheduled
to receive consideration by the COM
mittee. is another by Governor Hard
ing that a foreign trade corporation
be formed to finance purchases of
American farm products by foreign
countries unable. through present lack
or funds, to come into the American
market. Acting on Governor Hard
lng's suggestions, Governor Beckett
introduced a resolution providing for
appointment of the committee to act
under instructions of the conference
and take the propositions up with Con-
gress direct. This motion received a
second and was about to be voted on
when it was objected that the consti-
tuition of the governors conference
forbade formal resolutions or action
of the sort.
At this, Governor Sproul of Penn
sylvaria, pointed out that nc such for
NAL action was necessary, and, at the
call of Governor Bamberger of Utah,
who presided, a vote was taken on the
suggestion to appoint the committee
informally. Appreciation OF the gov
ernors was overwhelming.

Observation-Disclosures mail of an

$4,000 was stolen by three bandits
who held up the Mobridge-Minneapo-

st. Paul railway between Minneapolis
and Hopkins and escaped.
The robbers left the train at the
Humboldt avenue crossing, ran thru
the West high school grounds and dis
appeared. City police, railroad agents
and federal men are cooperating in
what is probably the most thorough
bandit hunt ever conducted in the
city, but have failed to find trace of
the trio.
