NEW YORK CROWD
RIOTED AT SIGHT
OF BRITISH FLAG

New York. - The usual Thanksgiv-
ing Day here was violently interrupt
ed shortly afternoon when crowds VINO
had attended high requiem mass IN
memory of Terrence MacSwiney, for
mer lord mayor of Cork, rioted at the
sight of a British flag decorating the
facade of the Union Club across Fifth
avenue from st. Patrick's cathedral.
After a fight participated in by hun
dreds of Irish sympathizers, in the
course of which plate glass windows
of the club were shattered by missiles
hurled by member of the mob, order
was restored when Gordon OF 2Oo
police established itself around the
the building. The union jack, which
was the cause of the assault, though
taken down at the first demand OF
the crowd and subsequently replaced,
still was draped on the sidewalk with
the emblems of France and the Unit
ed States when the fracas ended.

FRANCE MAY LIFT
SOVIET BLOCKADE
REQUEST RECEIVED BY RUSSIA
FROM FOREIGN CAPITALISTS
AFFoRDING SUCH RIGHTS
DECREE ISSUED BY RUSSIA
French Trades To BE Encouraged To
Get All The Russian Business
Possible

ris.-Suppression Of the blockade
of Russia is favored. by Premier Ley
CUES. he told the committee on for
eign relations of the chamber OF dep
uties recently.
Inasmuch as the Soviet government
is actually in operation, he declared,
it has been decided to permit French
traders and manufacturers to do all
the business they can with Russia
In addition, says Marcel Cachian,
who is a member of the committee,
and who has written an account OF
the premier's statement for the news
paper Humanite, M. Leagues said ne
was arranging to encourage trade with
Russia.
Discussing General Baron Wrangel
and the recent defeat of that antlBol-
shevik leader, the premier asserted he
considered the rout of General Wran-
gels troops represented nothing, and
that France was released of all en-
gagements toward him.
France is now feeding General
WrangePs army out of humanity, but
would continue this work no longer
than necessary. The premier said ne
was not thinking of using that army
in any way, and incidentally announc-
ed that half of General WrangeFs
troops were now in Serbia, where they
are being reorganized.
London.-The supreme economic So
Wet of Russia, says a Moscow wireless
message, has issued a decree pointing
out the general principles on which
foreign capitalists will be permitted
to exploit the natural riches of Rus
sia
The Soviet government has received
requests from foreign capitalists to
afford such rights, the message states,
and Soviet Russia requires offers OF
exuerienced forced and large mate
rial means in order to create within
the boundaries of Russia an inexhaust-
ible source of raw materials for manu-
facture on the spot and abroad.
A new law permits foreign capital
lists to work the natural riches OF
Russia, the message declares, receiv-
ing in return the right to export
abroad a portion of their production.
The Soviet government promises
foreign capitalists that nothing they
invest in undertakings in Russia shall
be nationalized, confiscated or requi-
sitioned. The capitalists shall have
the right to engage workers and 9TH
er employees in accordance with the
existing law on labor in Russia.

WANT U. S. AS MEDIATOR
EnaIishman Sa ysU. S. Has Money,
Men And Spirit To Handle The
Armenians And Turks

Geneva.-The assembly of the
league of nations decided, without
dissenting vote, to appeal to the
powers in the hope of finding a gov
eminent willing to undertake media
lion between the Turkish National
lists and Mustapha Renal Pasha and
The Armenians.
An earnest debate preceded the
vote on the resolution, which was pre-
sented by M. Viviani, former premier
Of France, inviting the council OF the
league to take the action indicated
1t threatened at times, however, to
Justify the predictions OF the league s
opponents, that the work or the as
sembly would founder on the rule re-
uuiring unanimous vote.
Lord Robert Cecil, A. ]. Balfour,
Rene Viviani, Hjalmar Branting, DR..
Fridtjjof Nansen, G. ]. Dougherty
(Canada) and M. Stalaiovch Jugo-
Slayia) participated, but the real con-
test was between M. Viviani and Mr..
Balfour.
Mr.. Balfour explained the failure OF
The league council to find a manda-
tory for Armenia. He referred to the
refusal of the United States to &C
cent such a mandate, and hoped that
the committee of the assembly might
DO better
The former French premier pleaded
warmly for prompt action, provoking
the first enthusiastic demonstration
of the assembly. He declared that II
the assembly was unable to do bet
fer than name another committee, it
would proclaim its own impotence.
It was remarked that Lord Robert
Cecil applauded vigorously from the
South African bench, while the Eng
fish delegates, Mr.. Balfour and II. A.
L. Fisher, remained stolidly indiffer-
ent.
II was evident that Mr.. Balfour was
fighting against an eventual military
expedition more than against medi-
alton, as proposed by M. Viviani. Al
though Doctor hansen was the only
one to speak boldly in favor OF an
expeditionary force to deal with the
Turkish Nationalist leader, Mustapha
Renal Pasha, all the others, with the
execution of Mr.. Balfour, approached
as closely as they could to this even
tuality without actually saying so.
The general impression after the
debate was that the assembly favor
ed fighting Renal Pasha If no other
way was found to end the conflict
in Armenia.

U. S. AGENTS AFTER FARMERS
Charles S. Barrett Says Word Has
Been Passed Around Farmers Are
To Be Taught A Lesson

Washington.-Dec he under.
stood that federal agents are already
going over Kansas, Iowa and other
states trying to get evidence neces-
sary to the indictment of men who
are asking farmers to hold their crop.
Charles S. Barrett, president of the
National Farmers Union, through a
statement issued recently, appealed to
members of his organization to stand
together and not sell their products at
present "ruinously low prices"
SHOW that you have the moral cour-
age to go to jail if necessary Mr..
Barrett advised members of the farm
ers' union THE word seems to have
been passed around that farmers were
to be taught lesson-they were get
ting troublesome.
The farmers answer to claims of
over-production, Mr.. Barrett said,
should be: eve simply will lessen
production" This was mo idle
threat" he said, adding: From ev-
cry part of the country comes the
promise that this policy should be adj
hered to until the country wakes up
to the fact that it must either go on
short rations Or pay you wages high
enough to live on.
Efforts Of the farmers toward CO.
operation, Mr.. Barrett said, have met
with strong opposition from the first.
He charged that deliberate efforts"
have been made to prevent them from
buying collectively.
"For seven long, weary years" the
farmers union president added, the
farmers of this country had placed
over them a secretary of agriculture
not in real sympathy with, and with
little understanding of the needs OF
agriculture, and who now as secrc-
tary of another department, is being
used apparently as willing and eager
tool to enforce deflation of farm prod
ucts"
Mr.. Barrett's appeal further stated
that the only course left to the farm
ers was to help one another and by
raising sufficient money to finance
more adequately "our business under
takings so that we can hold and mar
ket farm products ourselves in busi-
nesslike, orderly fashion"
