ASKS MANDATE POWER
President Would Make Armenia
Americas Ward.
Acceptance BY United States Of
Guardianship Over Country Urged
BY Wilson In Message.

Washington-President Wilson, in
thority to accept a mandate for Ar
menia, cited the resolution adopted
by the Senate this month expressing
'the hope that stable government,
proper protection of individual liber-
ties and the full realization of natio.
nalistic aspirations may soon be at
tanned by the Armenian people" and
that a warship and marines be sent to
the port of Batum to protect Ameri-
can interests.
After referring to the Senate reso.
luton, the President ir his message.
said:
Il received and read this document
with great interest and with genuine
qualification, not only because it EN-.
bodied my own conviction and feel
ings with regard to Armenia and its
people, but also, and more particularly,
because it seemed to me the voice of
the American people expressing their
genuine convictions and deep Chris
tian sympathies, and intimating the
line of duty which seemed to them to
lie clearly before US.
Refers to Appeal Of Premiers.
Il cannot but regard it as a provi-
Dental, and not as mere casual coin.
| icdence, that almost at the same time
I received information tina. the con.
ference of statemen now sitting at San
Reno for the purpose of working out
,, the details of peace with the Central
Powers which it was not feasible to
work out in the conference at Paris,
had formally resolved to address a
definite appeal to this government to
accept mandate for Armenia.
I'm response to the invitation of the
council at San Reno, l urgently ad-
wise and request that the Congress
grant the executive power to accept
for the United States mandate over
Armenia. l make this suggestion in
the earnest belief that it will be the
wish of the people Of the United States
that this should be done. The sym
pathy with Armenia has proceeded
from no single portion of our people,
but has come with extraordinary spon.s
taneity and sincerity from the whole
of the great body of Christian men and
women in this country by whose free
will offerings Armenia has practically
been saved at the most critical juno
ture of its existence At their hearts
this great and generous people have
made the cause of Armenia their own
1t is to this people and to their govern
nrsnt that the hopes and earnest cx>
! pectations of the struggling people of
Armenia turn as they now emerge
from a period of indescribable suffer-
ing and peril, and hope that the Con-
gress will think it wise to meet this
hope and expectation with the utmost
liberality. know from unmistakable
evidence given by responsible repre-
sentatives Of many peoples struggling
towards independence and peaceful
life again that the government of the
United States is looked to with extra
ordinary trust and confidence, and l
believe that it would do nothing less
than arrest the hopeful processes OF
civilization If we were to refuse the
request to become the helpful friends
and advisers of such nf these people
as we may be authoritAtively and for.
mally requested to guide and assist.

The Whole Secret of

Simply a Matter of the Makers Policies

To ascertain what each maker

Then it is matter of combining

cording to the highest standards.
Once you try a Brunswick you

Yet Brunswick Tires cost you the
same as other ike-type tires. Our
saving is on selling cost, through
our nationwide organization.
We realize that you expect more
from Brunswicks, and we assure
you that you get it. ONE Bruins
wick will tell you the story.
And then you'll want ALL
Brunswicks. No other tire, you'll
agree, gives so much for your
money.

CITY OFFICES MAY I
Be IN AUDITORIUM

Mayor Paine is doing some figuring on
the probable saving in the cost of rent
and in the possible increase in efficiency
If all the city departments have their
offices in the new municipal auditorium
when that building is completed.
The plans of X. r. Ellis, the chair
man, and the other members of the
auditorium commission, are to have
rooms arranged for all the city depart
ments on the first and second floors on
the Main street front of the building
The preliminary plans drawn by c. o.
Pfeil, the commissions architect, in
cude such offices.
Since 1910, while most of the city de-
Npartments have used offices in the
Shelby county courthouse, the board of
education and the Memphis "artesian
water department have rented offices
elsewhere at a considerable cost an
nually. Some of the city offices also
are scattered on different floors in the
courthouse, which causes considerable
time to be wasted when conferences be-
tween officials of different departments
are held.
Mayor Paine will confer with the au-
ditorium commissioners and with the
architect and before the final plans are
approved, will bring the matter for-
mally to the attention of the city COM
mission, so that in making the final
working plans, If 1t is decided that the

LIST 81 MEXICAN
TRAIN ATTACKS
Report Reaching Capital Tells
of outrages.

WASHINGTON, San. 30.--sixty-fo four
instances of attacks, derailments and
dynamiting of trains in Mexico during
the last year are classified as serious
in an official report, a copy Of which
reached Washington today.
The instances reported were chiefly
in the northern part of the country
and on the Mexican line, between Mex
leo City and Vera Cruz, and the 18TH
mus line. The report makes point OF
the fact that the greater number Of
these wrecks as result of rebel actiS-
tiles occurred during the first half Of
the year. and officials here regard this
as due to the refusal of the United
States to permit shipments of arms and
munitions, including dynamite, into
Mexico during the second half of the
year.
The railroads suffered losses Of $50, 900
in money, eight locomotives and l7o
freight and passenger cars as result
of the rebel raids, the report said In
addition to this, more than $250,OOO
worth of freight and baggage was re-
ported to have been destroyed or stolen
by rebels.

OWNERS PROTEST
TO MAYOR PAINE
They Object to Erection Of
Business Buildings in Resi-
dence Sections.

Mayor Paine, who has steered thus
far the municipal ship through smooth
waters, finds that ii is beginning to run
into rather stormy weather. In other
words, he is receiving some complaints
now from certain citizens instead Of
uniform praise for the work Of the
administration.
The complaints this week come from
residents on Union avenue, who insist
that the value of their property is in
danger from depreciation If the city per-
mits the erection of a number of garages
and auto sales buildings in the midst
of what is now a strictly residence dis
trict.
The automobile industry has been
growing at such a rapid rate that there
Is demand for buildings for salesrooms
and garages far in excess of the sup
ply Half dozen buildings are
planned on Union avenue, as far east
as Bellevue boulevard, or even as far
east as Cleveland street.
Memphis has, no building regulation
prohibiting the erection of business
buildings in residence neighborhoods,
and the city administration therefore is
powerless to force any owner Of real
estate to restrict its use to any par
largo garages and oil stations have
been built during the past two years
on Union avenue west of Bellevue and
the price on realty In that district has
advanced considerably in consequence
Similar buildings have been erected
or are being planned on other east and
west avenues but on these streets there
is not the objection that property own,
ers on Union raise, because, as a rule
there are few fine residences on tn,
avenues mentiond in the districts which
are being built up for business pur,
poses.
