FREEDOM ASKED BY
ASSYR0-CHALDEAN
Delegates Of Empire Ask
Allies To Establish
Mandate
by ElONd Macgriff.

London. April 10-Dust off your
musty tones and prepare to bid well
come to yet another nation-perhaps
AS the result of the world war and
Turkish peace.
For here comes Mr.. Rustem Nedjib
and Mr.. Said mot the aforesaid, but
his brother) Namik, properly creden
tailed representatives of the ancient
Assyro-Chaldean empire. which has
been alternating some 5000 years.
Be it known that Assyro-Chaldean
did their bit in the world war, CIV
ing the infidel Turk a wallop or two
on the Mesopotamian front, for which
the Little Father, Car Nicholas
promised them autonomy. Their
world war losses from fighting and
massacre tctsIed 100000. Treir ha-
bitat is Northern Mesopotamia.
Present At Conference.
So, when the well-known peace
conference met in Paris, Messrs.
Rustem and Said gathered up their
Mosul rugs and French book on ETH
quette and took Christian departure
from their people.
President Wilson promised them at
Paris he would look after their in
terests when the Turkish treaty came
up, and the French and British told
them to come hack when things we're
less busy. Definite wartime en-
gagements had been entered into
with the allies.
The Chaldean delegates returned
home, awaiting events, but now have
turned up looking for a mandate.
They want some power to be their
godfather until they relearn the
tricks of government-an art they
lost 5000 years ago. They also want
their nationality guaranteed by the
allies and the League of Nations.
The patriarchs say the Assyro-
Chaldeans number 1,770,000, of
whom $1,000 were in 1914 in the
Turkish empire, 100000 in British
India, whence half of the nation fled
several hundred years ago to escape
100000 are in Persia
and $4,000 in the Caucasus. The
territory which they ask as a state
100000 people of TWEEN
ty nationalities and divers religions,
of which 100000 are Chaldeans and
$4,000 are Christians--all under
the Pope.
The Chaldeans distinctly object to |
being added to Emir Feisuls Arab |
Mohammedian kingdom of Palestine,
or to the other Arabian kingdom, the |
Hedjaz. In the territory they seek /
to have created as a state are $780,
300 Moslems divided into nine nation
alities, of whom the Turks and Kurds |
number 100000.

MUNSEY PREDICTS
TEN-CENT DAILIES
Sees Subscription Rate Raise As Re-
suit of High Paper Cost.

Washington, May Five and even
10-cent daily newspapers were pre-
dicted today by Frank A. Munsey,
New York publisher. Appearing be-
fore the Senate committee investigat-
ing the newsprint paper shortage he
urged drastic reduction in the use
of newsprint and governmental regu-
lation both of the paper and the wood
pulp sources.
William Randolph Hearst, another
New York publisher, in letter to the
committee advocated a 20 or 20 per
cent cut in the size of newspapers,
but said he believed the time for gov
ernmental regulation had passed. Mr..
Hearst urged that publishers double
both advertising and circulation rates
saying such action would automatical-
ly cut down the size and number OF
copies without reducing revenue.
The government could not reduce
newsprint consumption by regulating
the number of pages of papers adj
mitted to the mails. Mr. Munsey told
the committee, because scarcely none
of the large city dailies rely for the
revenue on mail circulation.
Both publishers agreed that the
great Sunday editions of the city
papers were important factors in the
situation. Mr.. Munsey advocated reg
ulations limiting the Sunday edi
ton to the size of the week day is
sue, mot more than twenty-four
pages" Mr.. Hearst wrote that he
had cut the size of his papers twenty
and twenty-five per cent without adj
versely affecting his revenue or caus-
ing complaint from subscribers.
Cooperation between publishers to
in the use of print paper
would result in "a total curtailment
of twenty or twenty-five per cent and
would solve the problem, Mr.. Hearst
wrote. Mr.. Munsey took an oppo-
site view. He told the committe,
that cooperation could not be made
effective because some publishers
would not enter into an agreement.

able success achieved recently by
British naval investigators induces a
belief that It may be attained one day.

less wizards in the British fleet have
succeeded in controlling torpedo craft

the experimel, destroyO was man

by wireless-and steered easily. The

Other remarkable feats have been
done with wireless, such as burning
a ships searchlights. In fact, only
those naval scientists who are exper-
imenting wit hthis medium know just
what they can do with it-and they
are only at the beginning of things.
Altho the application of wireless
to the control of vessels and torpe-
does is not new idea, the latest re-
suits obtained in the British navy
are considerably in advance of any
that have gone before.
In 1917 the Germans made an in
effectual attempt to attack British
ships off the Belgian coast with cleo
trically directed torpedo boats. These
crafts were run by means of a wire
on the same principal as the Brennan
torpedo, and had an airplane equip

POINCARE SAYS BRITAIN
COULD HAVE AVERTED WAR

Paris, May Raymond Poincare,
former president of the French re-
public, in a copyright article in De
Matin, confirms George Bernard
Shaw's revelation published in Amer
lea early in 1919, tending to show
that the great war probably would
have been averted had Britain noti-
fed the Kaiser in good time of her
intention to enter the arena in case
of German aggression against France.
NJ. Poincare's article, coming at a
time when the allied statements at
San Reno are trying to recement the
somewhat shaken entente cordiale,
has created a sensation here.

Washington, May According to
officials of the Mexican Embassy the
report that President Carranza in

1t is known, however, that the in

the subject is authentic and there is
every reason to believe that it is not

CARRANZA is

Washington, May President
Carranza was advised by his Generals
at a conference held few days ago
to resign in favor of a President adj
interim whom he or Congress should
appoint, according to dispatches
reaching Washington tonight through
official channels.
Carranza refused to accept the rec
ommendation, the dispatches said,
but agreed to the withdrawal of the
presidential candidacy of Ygnacio
Bonillas, Ambassador to the United
States, and to the sending Of COM
mission to negotiate with the revo-
lutionists.
The conference, which was partici
pated in by all the Generals in the
vicinity of the capital and by Act
ing Minister of War Urquizo advices
said, was called by direction of Car
rama to discuss the situation grow
ing out of the secession of Sonora.
Lengthy arguments 70: Carranza' s
resignation were presented by some
o: the officers, it is sad, one OF the
chief arguments being that surren-
der of the presidency by Carranza
would eliminate any danger of inter-
vention by the United States in Mex
lean affairs.
Names of the Generals taking part
in the conference were not given in
the dispatches.
