Hitchcock. of Nebraska, the democratic
leader in the senate. declined today to
comment on published reports that his
telegram to democratic dinner at
Omaha, Neb., on March fl, was to be
regarded as an announcement of his
candidacy for the democratic presiden-
tial nomination on wet platform.
The telegram, Senator Hitchcock said,
spoke for itself, setting forth his opin-
ions on the liquor issue for his friends
in Nebraska where an attack had
been made on him as a result of the
filing Of petitions to pledge the state
delegation to support him for the pres
idency.
In the telegram the senator said
that while he accepted unreservedly
the peoples verdict against strong in
t6xicants, he thought "a lawful way
will be flund and ought to be found
to permit the manufacture and harm

Constantinople, Mar. 19.-Leaders of
the Turkish nationalists from Aver

ating in a movement to oppose allied
proposals for a peace unfavorable to
Turkey. Men closely associated with
Mustapha Kemal, leader of the ma
tiona1ists. have been skilfully promot-

ference, it is asserted, and the Arabs,
Kurds and other tribes are said to be
aligned with forces planning to check
mate any movement on the part of
the entente looking to the partitioning
of the country.
The whole movement seems to be
political rather than religious it being
declared by many not to be Pan Is
lamic in any way. Whether Bolshe-
vism enters into the situation has not
that direction. Mesopotamia has so
far held aloof from the Russian boil
sheviki.
Turkish newspapers frankly say the
allies cannot muster sufficient strength
the country. They point to Captain
Gabrielle d'Annunzio's defiance of the
supreme council of the peace confer
ence and other instances in which the
allies have been powerless to enforce
orders, and say ii would be better in
any event to risk humiliating defeat
rather than have the country turned

POLK TELLS SENATE FORCED SALE
GERMAN PROPERTY WOULD HURT
AMERICAN TRADE OPPORTUNITIES
Strong Protests Have Been Made
Against Rulings of Allied
ReparatiOns Tribunal.
CONTRARY TO TREATY
While Letter of Pact Might Be
So Interpreted Spirit Is Be-
ing Violated, Polk Says.

Washington. Mar. 19.-"Strong re-
monstrances' have been made by the
American government against rulings
OF the Allied Reparation Commission
that under the peace treaty, sale of
certain German property in neutral
countries can be forced if necessary
to satisfy the initial payment of he
German indemnity.
Under-secretary Polk of the state
department, writing today to Senator
Henderson, Democrat, Nevada said "a
further protest was in preparation as
such a construction of the treaty was
contrary to an officials Interpretation
exchange between Germany and the
allied powers.
Mr.. Polk's letter was in response to
an inquiry by Senator Henderson re-
garding reports that Great Britain had
requested that German property and
all rights of German citizens in cleo
trical enterprises i'm South America
be taken over the commission and
subsequently transferred TO Great
Britain as part of the indemnity due
IT by the Germans. Mr.. Polk said
that the state Department had -no
information as to this but added:
There has been received certain in
formation having. relation to your in
quiry to the effect that the allied gov
ernment's r parat on Commission
have a v G d and Professionally
adopted a construction of Article 235
which would empower the Preparations
Commission to demand payment By
Germany of the initial 90 billion gold
marks in any commodities, gold. ships
or otherwise, which the Preparations
Commission may desire and in the
exercise of such power the commission
may require the sale of German prop
erty in neutral countries at least If in
the form of credits or securities. I'm
der such power ii is possible that the
sale to the Reparations Commission of
the securities controlled by German
corporate enterprises in South Amer
ica might be required of Germany.
The department is endeavoring un-
officially to keep in touch with mat
ters coming up for decision before the
commission in order that any action
of the commission which might be in
uefOgdtlOn or American trade Opp0f-
tunities should not pass unchallenged.
The department is handicapped how
ever in that it has no right TO demand
such information and this government
not having ratified the treaty cannot
exercise the right to veto an interpre-
tation of the commissions powers
such as contained in the construction
of Article 235 mentioned above.
Nevertheless strong remonstrancc
has been made and a further protest
is in preparation on the ground that
the assumption and use of such pow
ers is prejudicial to general economic
reconstruction: offers an opportunity
to the governments dominating the
Reparations Commission Indirectly to
exercise a dangerous controlling in
fluence on private trade with Ger
many and incidentally is unwarranted
bv the terms of the treaty and con-
trary TO the spirit if not the letter OF
the official Interpretation given Ger
many by the allied powers before the
signing of the treaty.

Delegates insisted the high cost OF
living is due to the high cost of Ia

as it did before the war"
And yet" as one speaker pointed
out, these same short-hour workers
in cities are complaining loudest be-
cause food products are higher in
price. OF course food is higher. II
costs more for the farmer to grow
food. 1t costs more because city Ia
