Frank Morrison. secretary of the
American Federation of Labor, called
the present Congress the most hos

sat in the Capitol, during a brief
talk in which he called for I'M

MYSTERY Wells
PERSIAN FIASCO
British Prepared to Drop
All Activities There,
Reports Say.

LONDON. Nov. 15.-Much dark
ness and mystery enshrouds the
present British activities in Persia.
The house of lords may demand
light on what the public suspects are
some dangerous adventures in the
world of Arabian Nights which, for
the moment, are helping to drain the
national treasury. 1t is not unlikely
that disclosures of a nature to in
terest the Washington government
may be the outcome of the Persian
Interpolation here.
Nothing is more evident now than
the purpose of the British govern
ment to back clear out. Not only are
British troops now occupying the
base at Kazvin, where they were
supposed to be facing the Red
troops, to be ordered home, but A.
nancial assistance to Persia already
seems to have faded into the mists
of the forgotten promises. Only a
fraction of the 100000 loan to
the Teheran government appears to
have been advanced.
With what is judged to be the
virtual abandonment of British
policy in Persia, II Is expected other

have been happening there recently

WATSON SWITCHES
ON LEAGUE STAND
Stands by Lodge in Senate,
Record Shows, But Scraps
Pact in Campaign

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. Oct. 13.-se1-
ator Watson's course in the United
States senate with regard to Ireland
was somewhat inconsistent. according
TO his recorded votes and seems to
have been gagged largely by the prox-l
unity of the election.
In 1916 he voted against the Pitman
sub-resolution asking the British gov
m to exercise clemency in the
treatment of Irish political prisoners.
but in 1920-election year-he voted for
the Gerry reservation to the League of
Nations covenant expressing sympathy
to Ireland and admitting tina country
to the league when it has attained
self-government. Harding voted
against both the Pitman resolution and
the Gerry reservation and he also OPP
posed another Gerry reservation asking
for the independence Of ireland. Wat
son supported the latter expression.
stood by Senator Lodge.
In the long drawn out controversy
over the League Of Nations Watson
stood by Senator Lodge. whom Cover
nor Cox has referred to as the arch
conspirator Of the world" and support
ed all of his reservations.
On several occasions he opposed res
"1N1+AA+S E40ENAN1AAF Et~
same as the Lodge offerings. For ms
lance he voted against the Reed sub
stitute providing that the United
States should assume no obligations
under Article Ten. and aaainst the
FrelinEhuysen reservation pledEinE
the United States to assume no obliga-
ton TO preserve the territorial integri-
ty. or political independence of any
other country.
In view of the support Watson gave
the Lodge reservations it is manifest
that he has completely reversed his
previous stand. as he is now stumpinE
Indiana IN a straight out anti-league
platform.
Although now Watson has adopted
the view Of Borah and Johnson on the
pact. at one time he voted against
Eorah's reservation providing that the
United States should assume no oblt-
CATION under Article Ten" He also
stood by Harding in opposing a Hitch
cock amendment providing that the
Monroe Doctrine should not be affected
by the covenant.
Watson. whose oratorical powers are
we'll known. also opposed the Under
wood resolution limiting debate to ono
hour and wenty inmates on a bill or
resolution and twenty minutes on any
/ amendment.
The indiana senator along with
Harding was not voting when a mo-
tion was made to table a concurrent
resolution assuring the administration
OF the support of Congress in dealing
with the threatened coal miners
strike. Both Of these senators voted
against the appropriation for the relief
of starving Europe following the war.
