MANDATE FOR ARMENIA
ASK OF AMERICA
Question Brought Before Supreme
Council BY Premier Nitti
OTHER MATTERS SETTLED
England Awarded Mandate for Pales-
tine, and France for Syria.

San Reno, April 25.--(By the Asso.
ciated Press. 1.-The supreme council is
Sending a formal request to President
Wilson that the United States Govern
ment take the mandate for Armenia
The council is leaving to President
Wilson the arbitration of the differ
ences over the boundaries Of Armenia
The council awarded mandate fol
Mesopotamia and Palestine to Great
Britain and mandate for Syria to
France.
In placing Palestine under Brit
ish mandate the council, established
the continental limits of Holy Land
what is called "the national home of
the Jews.
Jewish Citizens Protected.
The terms of the mandate protect
the national rights of Jewish citizens
of other countries, that is to say, a
Jew of American, British, French or
other nationality may retain his ma
tionality, although he is also citi-
zen of the State of Palestine. The
rights Of Arabs also are protected,
there being 600 900 in Palestine and
100000 Jews. The mandate is linn
tied generally by what is known as
as the Balfour declaration. British
forces have been in occupation of
Palestine since the defeat of the Turk
ish forces by the British field marshal
Viscount Allcnby.
France has been the protector of
the Christians in Syria since the mid
die ages, having been designated for
the purpose by the Holy See.
The question with regards to Syria
has been in serious controversy be-
tween the French and British govern
mcnts since the armistice was signed,
particularly over the point whether
France should have all of what is geo
graphically outlined as Syria, or only
certain parts.
TO Determine Boundaries.
The boundaries of Syria and Meso-
potamia will be determined by nego-
tiation later between France and Great
Britain. The Mcsopotamia mandate is
given subject to friendly arrangement
with the italian Government over eco~
nomic rights.
The Turkish treaty is now what is
uticially called practically finished.

Cceiving it in Paris about May 10,

 President DIurphere. speaking direct ly to the large graduating class seat ed in front of him, emphasized the re- sponsibility and power of the univer- sity graduate. It is less spectacular, observed the speaker, to work in time of peace than in war, but the obli- gation for service is greater now.

 pr. Murphere spoke of the duty of graduates in combating the poisonous influence of "redY aeitators who are seeking to destroy the foundation oi our government. Social and economic duties of college bred men received attention from him. It is the duty of the college man, according to the speaker, to help evolve a solution for the labor problem. He spoke of the two bounds that will break down all social and industrial distinction as being religion and education. The obligation of the university man in movements for world peace received attention during the course of the ad- dress. pr. Murphere spoke of the duty to work against the loss Of moral, physical and financial strength l in war and the idea of settling dis putes by compulsory arbitration. | 'Let us renew our faith in the sanity of the world" concluded Dr. Murphere, land as Longfellow said,

 Resolutions were adopted urging fed eral, state and municipal officials to take action that will bring this i'm tolerable situation to an end" and also indorsing the citizens transportation committed, which will endeavor to break the congestion.
 Only one vote, that of Peter J. Brady, legislative agent of the American Fed eration of Labor was cast against the resolution. A group of labor leaders attended. and Brady asked that their side of the question be heard He said it was his impression that the gather ing was for q sGttlement but with the adoption of the resolutions. 1t ap- peared to be the intention to continue the warfare.
 Alfred E. Marling, former president of the association. explained there was no intention to war against the unions, but in view of the circumstances, the labor leaders would have to be heard at some other time.
 Brady afterward pledged support of the unions provided the merchants were anxious, he said, to clear up the freight situation ana would call on national, state and city authorities to aid as stated in the resolution.
 After the meeting, T. M. OConnor, president of the Longshoremens Union said his organization would take steps to cooperate with the merchants committee.

Ice Cream Is a Food

Ice Cream combines the strength and nourishment of food with the delicacy and re- freshment of the richest des- sert. Ice Cream is ideal for youth and age. It sustains, strengthens and it is equally good in the home and hospital. For convalescents it is unsur- passed because of it's ease of digestion.
 Ice Cream contains more food than an equal weight of meat, fish or eggs. Its fresh- ness is always assured by its frozen condition.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1920-05-26
