WASHINGTON, Nov. 30.-Members Of
Congress who have been asked to sup

Reform Bureau, the Lords Day ALI
ance and other reform organizations rs
for Sunday blue laws and similar
morals legislation declared to-day that
the movement would not receive much
consideration in Congress if the reform
organizations demanded legislation
that was too drastic.
Senators Jones, Of Washington, and
Capper of Kansas, who are scheduled
to speak at the forthcoming convention
of the International Reform Bureau to
be held in Washington December to
8, said they would have to wait until
the convention had adopted a specific

From The Tribunc's Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, W Nov. Selection Of
Major General Wood, of the American
army, for the post Of commander in
chief of the Armenian EXpeditionary
Force, should one be decided upon by
the League of Nations, forecast in the
cabled dispatch from Ralph Courtney,
The Tribune's correspondent at Geneva,
and printed exclusively in to-day s
Tribune, was the topic of general COM
ment in official circles here to-day.
Followed up as it was this afternoon
by the announcement that President
Wilson has accepted the leagues invi-
tation to serve as mediator in the Ar
menian situation, Mr.. Courtney's dis
patch was given added significance as
indicating that the United States may
serve either in the process Of orderly
mediation of the Armenian dispute or a
settlement by force of arms directed by
the senior major general of the Amer
lean army.
Both at the War and State depart
ments it was frankly admitted that no
ban existed against General Wood oc-
cupylng the post of high commissioner
Tor Armenia, as suggested by General
Sir Frederick Morris, of Great Britain
IN his report to the special League of
Nations commission, by which the
Armenian qu~ ion is now being dis
cussed. 1t was said, however, that as
lar as reports reaching this govern
ment of the deliberations at Geneva
were concerned, no mention had been
made of the possibility that General
Wood might be rendered the invita-
tlon as commander Of the international
force suggested for operations in
Armenia
Secretary Baker asked to be excused
from commenting officially on the fu-
ture ass gnment of General Wood, de-
clarng that it would not be proper for
him to be quoted on the plan until it
had been officially communicated to
this government. He said, however
that no army regulation existed that
would operate against the service of
any distinguished American officer in
a post created by the League of
Nations.

Discusses Japanese Plea
In his declaration Viscount Ishi
said:
Japan had the opportunity when the
covenant originally was formulated to
declare her belief that equality before
the law should be assured all men, ir-
respective of nationality, race or re-
ligion.
THAT principle should be established
so that the various merits and genuises
OF mankind should be emancipated and
given free play in the interest Of hu-
man civilization. That principle Of
equal opportunity should be one of the
bedrocks of the great peace organiza-
ton in order that all nations owing
allegiance to the league should to a

and in order that lasting peace should

at was to the poignant regret of the
Japanese government and people that
the original trainers of the covenant
found thems selves unable to accept the
japanese proposal in this matter. The
Japanese delegates declared they would
continue their insistence for the adop-
tion of their just demands by the
league in the future.
