curbed by the strength Of the Turkish

Of Erzerum. which Mr.. Wilson has
considered the capital Of Armenia. and
no one seems inclined to try to dis

when the treaty is delivered to the
Turkish delegates.
Surprising that the British have not
materially modified their imperialistic
desires. they appear to have profited
hugely by the Turkish settlement.
They are given possession or control
Of Mesopotamia, Palestine. the eau
casus with the ports Of Baku and Ba-
tum, the Bagdad railway. and naval
control OF the Dardanelles. Also Tur-
key is compelled TO recognize the Brit
ish protectorate over Egypt, which In
sures sole rights to the Suez canal.
However. there has grown up In Eng
land a strong feeling against further
expansion of the empire and recog-
milton of the fact that some OF Its
most important boundaries are weak
ened and thrown open by the acquisi-
ton Of Mesopotamia and other terri
tory In that part of the world. II is
felt that the material benefits to be
derived will not nearly compensate for
the added burden on the British tax
payer, for certainly strong military
establishment will have TO be main
tanned permanently in those regions.
France, Italy and Greece were
granted most of their demands In the
Turkish settlement. and even Turkey
itself was considered, for II retains

The Republican members Of the sen
ate committee on foreign relations
have prepared new peace resolution
In lieu Of the one passed by the house.
Its principal features are:
l. II fatty repeats the joint resolu-
ton passed by congress declaring war
on Germany. and then adopts the Ian
guage Of the house resolution declar-
ing the war ended.
2. II requests the president to open
negotiations with Germany for the
purpose of restoring friendly rela-
lions and commercial intercourse, al
though as a matter Of fact trade has
already been resumed.
3. II protects the claim Of American
nationals against Germany for damage
suffered during the war. by holding up
all the money accumulated by the
alien property custodian or other
agents OF the government until such
claims have been adjusted.
4. II retains for the United States
all property or rights obtained under
the terms of the armistice and the
treaty OF Versailles until a satisfac-
tory settlement Is made between the
United States and Germany.
s. II repeats all wartime legislation,
in the language Of the house resolu-
ton.
The advocates of this method OF
ending the war found encouragement
In a statement from p. B. NOyes
American member Of the Rhineland
high commission, in the course OF
which he said:
"rhe big thing for the Americans

Special Cable to The Tribune

Copyright. 1920, New York Tribune Inc
PARIS, Dec 29.Wilsonian mediation
in Armenia seems to be indefinitely
postponed. The Armenians themselves
are now holding peace conference
with the Turkish Natonalists under
Mustapha Kemal, while the Russian
Bolsheviki are acting as mediators. The
conference is sitting at Alcxandropol,
in the Caucasus. Lenine sent his two
agents, Legrand and Devani, to mcdi.
ate between Katesian, who represents
Armenia. and Kiazin Karaboki Pasha,
the Turkish delegate.
The Rolsheviki have an army sta
toned at AXtafa, and have demanded
permission for it to enter Armenia in
case of necessity as the price Of their
mediation.
The Bolsheviki, it, is reported, are
endeavoring to force the Turks to re-
turn Kars to Armenia. The medators
also intend to decide the fate of Tiflis
and Batum.
It Lcninc's mediation succeeds it
Will result in enormously increasing
the influence of the Bolsheviki in the
Near East. Ominous reports arc reach
lnS Paris from Georgia, and it is feared
that the whole OF this part Of tho
world, led by Armenia aud Georgia, may
turn Bolshevik. The defeat of Cen
eral Wrangel in the Crimea had a
strong reaction on the new states that
once were part of the Russian Empire.
The new Armenian government is re-
ported to be under a group of men who
are all pro- Russian.

Turks still exists in the Caucasus and
could be developed into force to COM
