Still Dripping With Blood''
Special Dispatch to The Tribune

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 22.-Henry
Morgenthau, of New York. formerly
united States Ambassador to Turkey,
delivered scathing Indictment to-
day of English and French political
leaders who, he said, we're not waiting
until the hand OF the Turk is dry Of
the Christian blood he shed in the re-
cent massacres of Marash, but who,
for selfish reasons, are about to shake
that hand to retain the Turk in power
in Constantinople. He also urged that
the politicians who refused to carry
out the will of the nation be left at
home in November.
Mr.. Morgenthau spoke at mass
meeting arranged by the Near East
Relief in the Academy of Music.
"The people of the United States
are passing through a crisis" said
Mr.. Morgenthau. This country Is on
trial. European nations have been
weighed in the balance and found
wanting. 1t is now high time-and
Washington's Birthday is a fitting day
to do ito determine whether this
Republic WAS founded for purpose
or just as place in which to exploit
Of the world.
''The countries which fought pre-
sumably for justice, liberty and the
self determination of small nations are
not waihng until the blood Is dry upon
the hands of the Turk from his recent
massacres in Marash, but they are TAX

WASHINGTON, Feb. 22.-~State and
district prohibition authorities have
ample authority under the Volstead
prohibition enforcement act to deal
with the "rebelion against prohibi-
ton" in Iron County, Michigan. De-
partment of Justice and Internal Rev
enue Bureau officials said tonight in
discussing the first open Haunting Of
the "dry" law to be reported to the two
government agencies jointly intrusted
with enforcement of the statute.
Agents of the prohibition directors
Office in Michigan, however, will be
given full cooperation of The Washing-
ton authorities, it was said Officials
were unable to say tonight just what
steps would be taken here.
Attorney General Palmer was alb
sent from the capital and reports Of
the "revolt' had not reached William
L. Frerson, acting Attorney General.
of Justice that the request Of Major
a. Y. Dalrympie, prohibition d-
rector for the central states, that
the Attorney General issue warrants
for the arrest Of the Iron County au-
thorities accused Of defying the pro-
hibition law could not be granted, in
asmuch as the judicial and not the
prosecuting branch of the government
must swear o,lt warrants
The Attorney General mirht recon-
mend to the United States District At
torney at Grand Rapids that prompt
application for warrants be made to
the nearest United States Commits
sioner.
Officials predicted that the "rebel-
lion" would be short lived, saying that
enforcement Of the prohibition laws
wee entered into with the determina-
tion to act swiftly and emphatically in
case Of any open attempt to defy the
statutes.
The outbreak in Michigan is prob
ably the first OF it's kind in this coun-
try bearing a resemblance to the his
toric "whisky rebellion Of President
Washington's first term, when bands cf
farmers in Western Pennsylvania took
to arms to resist the excise taxes de-
signed by Alexander Hamilton for the
support of the new government
The taxes which were a novelty in
government finance remained however
part of the American fiscal system
and were one of the monuments to the
young genius who was first Secretary
of the Treasury.

Trooper Head Expected
ssHeU to Break Loose
Constabulary anticipated Trou-
bic in Enforcing the ''Dry''
La1c in Upper Michigan

LANSING, Mich, Feb. 22.--There was
no state official in Lansing tonight
who could say what action, If any,
would be taken by state agencies in
connection with the reported "prohi-
bition rebellion" in Iron County. Gov
ernor Sleeper is in Florida, Leuten-
ant Governor Dickinson's whereabouts
were unknown here, and Attorney Gen
eral Groesbcck could not be reached
up to late hour.
At the headquarters Of the state po-
lice it was said no official word of the
incident had been received. In the ab-
sence of Colonel Roy Vandercook, head
Of the constabulary, other officers
withheld comment
Difficulty in enforcing the prohbi-
tion law in portions of Upper Michi-
gan had been anticipated by the con-
stabulary, it was pointed out. Reports
reaching Lansing recently, it was said
foreshadowed possible friction between
state and local officers, and sentiment
in that section Of the state had been
represented here as strongly opposed
to the operation of the force
A week ago Colonel Vandercook ap-
peared before the State Board of Audi
tors here with a request for an emer-
gency appropriation, and was quoted
as saying that "hell will break loose in
the upper peninsula" if the work of
the state police was interfered with.
The upper Michigan press has since
attacked this view and maintained ID
that local officers could better pre-
serve order
Some officials here are known to re-
gard the matter as nothing moro than
clash between the state and county
oflcers over their authority to act in
the various localities.

Allies Disposition Of
Sultan PLeases Turks
Permission For Him to Stay in
Constantinople Is Well Re-
ceiued by the Newspapers

ONSTANTINOPLE, Feb. 22.-Pre-
mier Millerand's declaration of the
Allied plan to permit the Sultan to re-
main in Constantinople is widely dis
cussed in Turkish newspapers. The
statement is generally we'll received,
although some of the leading Nation
alist papers complain that it is too gen.
eral in terms and not sufficiently clear.
The newspapers announce that Tewfik
Pasha, former Grand Vizer, has been
appointed to head the Turkish peace
delegation, which will include Naby
Bey, former Ambassador to Rome;
bassador to Italy, and Hikmet Bey,
President of the Chamber of Deputies.
The delegation will number about
thirty.
The Nationalist maneuvers are only
continuation Of German plotting. ac-
cording to "Alemdar," the organ of the
Entente and the Liberal party The
newspaper asserts that Berlin, Switzer-
land and Russia are centers from
which Young Turks like Djavid Bey,
Djemel Pasha, Talaat Pasha and Enver
Pasha are directing Bolshevk negotia-
tions for the Nationalists in an effort
TO effect Russian Bolshevik cooperation
in Pan-Islamic Bolshevsm. Enver
Pasha, says the newspaper, is now in
Paris, where he is attempting to facili-
tate the entrance of the "Reds" into
India. He has been negotiating in
Azerbaiian, which controls the Baku
oil fields and probably could open the
road for the Bolsheviki into Persia
Many Nationalists' declare that the
failure to obtain a satisfactory peace
will drive Turkey into an alliance with
the Bolshevik.
PARIS, Feb. 22.-The Nationalists,
who are in the majority in the Turkish
Chamber, have drawn up program
which includes as its main points re-
fusal of any control which means out
side interference in the country's in
ternal affairs, the return to the Turks
Of all territory not occupied at the con-
clusion of the armistice and the accent
ance of the decisions of the Arabs
arrived at with regard to their future.

British Experts Would

Military Men in Memorial to
Lloyd George Assert Simple
Trading Wifh Unions Futile

LONDON. Feb. 22.--A number of
military men and others, who during
the last two years have been engaged
in official duties in Russia, have sent a
memorial to Premier Lloyd George ad-
vocating recognition of Soviet Russia.
The sgnatories include Lieutenant
General Sir Hubert Cough who headed
the British military mission in the
Baltic; Colonel f. G. Marsh, British
military agent in the Caucasus in 1915
'16 and later commanded a brigade at
Murmansk, when chief of staff to
General Cough, and several financial
advisers and experts on the various
military missions.
They contend that simple trading
with the cooperative unions is not suf-
hcient without the assistance Of the
Russian government, while it is becom-
ing clearer daily that the stability OF
Europe depends upon restoring the
central European states. which car only

Murders Scare Socialists
Disband Following
Budapest Assassinations


BUDAPEST, Feb. 22.-The murder OF
the Jewish editor, Somozyi, of the news
paper "Nepszava'' and two of his en-.
ployees, sub-editor and a poet named
Adelbert Vase, has created sensa-
ton here. The bodies were found in
the Danube River weighted with rocks
No clew to the murderers has been OBJ
tanned.
1t appears that the three men were
seized and carried off in an automobile
after which they were blackjacked and
the bodies thrown into the river at a
convenient spot
Regret at the murders has been ex-
pressed by the National Assembly. So
ciahstic organizations are disbandinr
fearing that similar fate will be dealt
out to their leaders by secret terrorist
societies.

On S0uiet Peace

PARIS, Feb. 22.-"Le Matin"
says to-day that Premier Mile
rand is at odds with Premiers
Lloyd George and Nitti on the
question Of making peace with
the Bolsheviki, and that the prin-
cipal object of his return to Lon
don tonight is to determine the
policy Of the Allies on this sub
ject.
The newspaper says Lloyd
George seems to support Nitti's
position in believing it is neces-
sary to resume relations with the
Moscow government, while M.
Millerand considers that there
should be only commercial ex-
changes and remains opposed TO
any other relations with the
Soviet government.

Tardieu Defends
Treaty; Denies 1t
Is InexecultabIe
Gives Statistics to Refute
Legend That ssFour Badly
Informed Men Imposed
Law of Their Fantasy"

PARIS, Feb. 22.-Captain Andre Tar
dieu, former head of the General Com
mission for Franco-American War Mat
ters, under the head, con the Brink
of Error" refutes in the third of his
articles in "LTllustration" what he de-
scribes as the legend that the German
treaty was made by "four fallible, bad
ly informed men, shut up in a dark
room, imposing upon the world the law
of their fantasy"
Against this "legend" he cites sta
tistics on the work of the treaty MAX
ers to show the long and laborious
study given to the terms of the treaty
and argues for its strict execution be-
fore Judgment is passed as to whether
it is capable of being executed. Dur
ing six months, Captain Tardieu says,
the treaty material was studied and
discussed in fifty-two technical COM
missions comprised of specialists from
all countries, who held GAG sessions.
Their conclusions, he ASSERTS, were
checked by twcnty-six Investigations
and were discussed from January 10 to
June % by three bodies-thc Council
Of Foreign Ministers, which held thir-
ty-nne sessions; the Council of Ten,
which held seventy-two sessions, and
the Council of Four, which met 146
times.
These three bodies, ne declares, heard
representatives of all interested Allied
and neutral countries, and finally the
Council of Ministers OF the principal
powers considered the text.
Starting with the recent recession
of the Allies from their original de-
mands for trial Of the German war
guilty, Captain Tardieu discusses Ger
many's demands for "revision of the
treaty" and predicts that many other
attempts to change it's terms will be
made unless the Allies stand finn. Re
visions already have been made, he de-
clares, for, beginning on May 10, q
minute study has been made Of every
article by technical commissions sitting
in more than $50 sessions and by the
Council of Four in sevcnty-siX meet
ings.
Captain Tardieu declares the same
spirit that recently became public ir
London existed earlier in Paris, bu.
that former Premier Clemenceau
firmly held his ground He asserts il
is easy to refute criticism of the
treaty as inexecutable by reviewing
those parts of it which already have
been made effective, such as the occu-
patton Of German territory. the return
the Saar basin by the French, Tho
execution of the Slesvig plebisclte
the dismantling Of fortresses in The
neutral zone, the surrender of the Ger
man fleet, the return of nearly MN,
billion francs in pillaged materials ant
the turning over to Belgium of tn,
Walloon cantons
In conclusion, Captain Tardeu recalls

have better excuse than mere oppo-
sition to Italian chauvinism, which is
a dangerous, damnable thing, to sup
port their insistence that Italy must
not be allowed to make the Adriatic
~ Italian lake. That newspaper con-
ttuues:
I'VE see small chance Of anything
satisfactory being achieved by this SUI
preme council, which is neither trusted
nor respected nor even feared by any
one in the world. 1t is the real hope
Of humanity that it may soon give place
TO league Of nations"
Much the same opinion is held by
Lord Robert Cecil
The Turkish Settlement
In the Turkish settlement, as on the
Russian question, the British and
French do not see eye to eye. Former
Premier Asquith promised Constanti-
nople to the Russians, but even those
who now look upon the Bolsheviki with
less distrust than before are hardly
ready to offer them the Ottoman En-
pire.
With America out of the peace settle
ment there remains only the league of
nations itself as a possible protector
OF the Armenians, but at once there
arises the question what country will
supply troops to police Armenia.
"The Daily News" says:
"Since we are not technically at war
with Russia it may not be necessary to
make technical peace with her. There
need be no quarrel about such formaE-
ties. The important thing now is to
restore normal intercourse along lines
SO wisely and benefcially laid down by
the adoption of the trading scheme with
the cooperatives. We want Russian
products and she is ready to pay for
them in gold. We want gold desperately
to send to America"
Premier Millerand has given hint
~ to his feeling in regard to overtures
to the Soviet government, and there
will be several interesting develop
ments along this line when the confer
ence reassembles Monday.

Surrender of War Guilty
Opposed by Clarte Group
By William c. Dreher
Special Gable to The Tribune

Copyright. 1920. New York Tribune inc \
BERLIN. Feb. 22.--Henri Barbusse,
author of "Under Fire" opposes the
Entente demands for the delivery of
Germans accused Of violation of the
laws of war. In telegram to the
German periodical "Das Tagebuch," he
says that his view is shared by the
Clarte group. They regard the officers
OF the German army and the former
Kaiser as guilty and deserving of any
punishment they might get, the mes
sage said. Nevertheless, the Clarte
group rejects the plan OF surrenderng
the Germans, because this is held to be
one-sided act of revenge, having moth
ing to do with real justice.
The message says that responsibility
for the war cannot be placed on one
government alone, although the
former Kaiser must bear his full
measure of blame. German army off,
GERS also. the message adds, are prob
ably guilty of atrocities, but 1--WE know
that horrors were committed on all
sides."
