EUROPE is WARNED
TO HELP HERSELF
BEFORE ASKING AID
(Rx Associated Pressl

GENEVA, May 13.-The Earl of Bal
four warned the nations of Europe to-
day that they would lose what prestige
they have in America. unless in max
ing appeals for aid they show some
indication of trying to help them
selves. His warning was voiced in
connection with discussion by the
council of the league of nations of the
American relief administration offer
to feed Russian refugees in Constan-
tinople.
GENEVA, May 13.-The French and
Italian objections to immediate con-
sideration of the problem to approve
the British mandate for Palestine
made it seem certain today that the
matter would be postponed until the
next meeting of the council of the
league of nations. Lord Balfour had
planned to ask the council today to
put the mandate on the calendar of
the present sessions but Leon Bour-
geois for France and Marquis Imper-
iali for Italy reported their govern
ments unprepaFed to consent to ap-
proval of the mandate at this time
The French reason for objecting to
immediate consideration was that
France wished to have the mandate
for Syria approved at the same time
while the Italian reason was that the
whole question had been complicated
by the fact that the treaty of Sevres
had never been ratified.
Both France and Italy complained
of the abruptness of the British pro-
posal, which had not allowed time
for these governments to consider the
subject.
