GENERALLY EXPECTED

dierS to Settle QuarreIS in
Foreign Lands,

lev MORNING JOURNAL SPECIAL LEASED wlpsl
Washington, May 25.--The house
foreign affairs committee will meet
tomorrow to consider President
Wilson's request that he be given
| authority by congress to accept a
| mandate over Armenia.
Announcement tonight by Chair
/ man Porter that the committee had
| been called to take up the proposal
| Immediately and that Secretary
/ Colby would be the first witness,
caused widespread comment among
members who hau believed earlier
in the day that the whole mandate
question would go over until after
! the convention recess.
There was no intimation as to
the reasons for immediate consid
era ation. With the short time re-
naming before the recess the gem
eral impression was that congress
would not have an opportunity to
pass on the question.
Some democrats, outspOken in
their opposition to the mandate,
said they construed the call for
the meeting to mean that the re-
publicans had decided at the last
pres dent request and refuse to
grant II, The question was dis
cussed during the day by republi-
cans at a number of informal con-
fercnGes and the opinion was ex-
pressed by many that in the event
that congress failed to act and
then adjourned until December, as
some members have urged, the
president might call a special ses-i
sion for its especial considerations.
1t is known that republican lead
ers have advised against the possi-
bility of a special summons and
knowing the sentiment of the sen-
ate and house one of the leaders
declared tonight that the best
thing to do Is to get the mandate
question over with"
Chairman Porter in a statement
said he had not had time to confer
with all members or the commit
tee, but that he regarded the
proposition of sending American
soldiers to Armenia or any 9th r
foreign country for the purpose OF
settling their political and econom-
ic quarrels as utterly absurd"
IF my views prevail with the
committee" Mr. Porter said we
shall give the president a mandate
to follow that portion of Wash
ington's farewell address admon-
ishing us to keep out of European

give him power forcibly to inter-
vene in Mexico and stop the mur-i
der and robbery of American c'u-
zens which has been going on for

The word mandate is mislead-
Ing. In the past, the action sugr
gested by the president would have
been called forcibe intervent on

Grams Of the world war was re-
ceived here today by the Ameri-
can Legion weekly. 1t read:
1--WE approach the annual
celebration of Memorial day
with our hearts filled with ten
derest and grateful memories Of
those who have given their lives
for America. The day has by
custom been COnsecrated to the
country's heroic dead. This Is
observed by those who were
comrades in arms and who
shared with the well-remember-
ed dead the experiences. the
hardships, the perils and the
glory Of war; this is celebrated
by the people of the country
generally who take 1t as an an
nual occasion to renew their
loyalty to the country and to
draw fresh inspiration for the
tasks Of peace from the men,
ory of the sacrifices which were
made 50 freely in times of war.
The day is therefore filled with
both memories of the past and
Inspirations for the future. It
gathers the traditions of what
we have done in order that we
may have the courage for what
we have to do.
Progress moves like an
army; it has its days of train
ing and preparations, its days
of conflict and its days of vim
dications; it has its campfires
and its memories. To you who
were soldiers of America in the
great war | send affeCtiOnate
greetings, What your arms have
done for liberty in France your
spirits will continue to do for
justice at home. Great eXper-
ienCes make great men. and out
OF the tragedy of this test new.
heroic quality has come to the
American manhood YOU repre-
sented, and your country's af-
fection for what you have al
ready done Is only equalled by
its confident hope of the manly
part you are still to play"

HEARST'S MAGAZINES
CAN'T Be BARRED OUT
OF N. NJ, IS RULING

st. Paul. Mimi, May 25.--
A temporary injunction, issued
by the United States district
court in New Mexico, restraining
the state council of defense and
certain officials of that state
from interfering with the sale
and circunlation of the Hearst
Magazines in New Mexico, was
upheld by the United States cir
cult court of appeals here to-
day.
The injunction was obtained
by the International Magazine
company of which w. r. Hearst
is a stockholder. The action
started early in 1918.
The state council of defense,
Governor w. E. Lindsey and
others sought to discourage cir
culation of the Hearst maya
zines through popular appeal.
basing their action, according to
the complaint, on alleged anti
British and pro-German state
ments published in Hearst news
papers.

He said he believed the present
wide variation in prices to whole

He said that jobbers must be al.
lowed to make fair profit on

In reply to inquiry as to why he
sold sugar when 1t showed the firm

He said various company en-
ployes have received pay increases
ranging from IL per cent for sales

Henry w. Wilmot. vice president
of the Cuban-American Sugar com

Finance corporation, another wit
moss, put in evidence a copy of a
letter from Manuel Rionda of Cuba
tp George A. Zabriskie, former
head of the sugar equalization
board, advising purchase of the
Cuba sugar crop. Unless this was
done, said the letter which was
dated July 20. 1919, "a wild orgy
of speculation will follcw which
will be without precedent in the
history of sugar"

bought Wilmot testified, sugar
would have been IL cents a pound |

INCREASE MADE:
BY THE SENATE:
IN ARMY BILL
Boosts Amount About $24,-
600, 900 Over the House
Measure, But Less Than
That For Present Year.

.sy sossIso JOURNAL spSciAL LEssso ~I#s,
Washington, May 25.-The sem
ate today passed the annual army
Appropriation bill carrying $4t5,-
$4,000 and sent it to conference
The bill provides for an increase
of approximately $24,000,000 over
the house BILL. but $353,00Q,000 less
than the appropriation for the
present fiscal year The principal
senate increase was $12,745,O00 for
the army air service, making its
total $40,000,000.
The senate eliminated house pro-
visions which would give the army
air service control of all military
aerial operations from land bases
and would confine naval aviation to
fleet operations, fleet shore bases,
training Of personnel and Con5truc-
tion and experimental work.
Authorization was given by the
senate for the sale Of the old army
transports Sherman, Sheridan,
I Thomas, Logan, Buford. Fitzpatrick,
Crook and Warren and Of the how
itzer plant at Erie, Pa, and estab-
from the proceeds Cf the
latter sale, of a government-owned
pant at the Watervliet arsenal, n.
Y, for the manufacture of medium
calibre field artillery.
Committee amendments provid~
ing for the sale of government war
munition plants at Tullytown, Pa;
Amatol, n. j., and Jacksonville,
Fla, were rejected.
The senate also overruled the
committee in voting to obtain
house appropriations of $SS,SSO for
the acquisition of land near Camp
Travis, Texas, for a target range.
To give the war department time
to complete the reorganization
proposed in the army re-organiZa-
ton bill now in conference, the
senate adopted an amendment au-
thorizing the president to retain
in service at their
rank or to discharge and recon-
in lower grades such emer-
gency army officers as he may
deem necessary. The amendment,
however, limits the number of all
DilicefS 10 StNeHteeH tHouS"hu ul'
provides that all emergency Off

another amendment was inserted
