CRANE SEES SYRIA
ASu.S. MANDATE
Believes Conviction by French
Military Court in Damascus
Is Error.
Rv the Associated Press.

BY the Associated fress
PARIS, May 26.-Charles R. Crane,
former American minister to China
.oday continued his active discussion
IL conditions in Syria with leading
Frenchmen. in full confidence that the
report Of his conviction by a French
military court in Damascus for IN
citing a riot was an error.
The French foreign once has no
knowledge Of the reported CONVICTION.
Mr.. Crane appears to have expressed
himself last week very plainly to
the mandate commission Of the league
of nations council in Geneva regard
ing the disturbed political situation
in Syria. The substance OF his decIafa-
.tion was that the Syrians wanted
first of all, complete independence, and.
falling that, preferred that the United
States take the mandate over the
country. If the Americans were un-
willing, he said, the Syrians prefer
red Great Britain, but under no cir
cumStances wished to De unoer tne
French mandate.
Demonstrants Shot Down.
He reiterated the events in Syria
which had led up to the violent mani
festations on the part OF the tnhap1-
tants and declared that the French
military had intervened with machine
guns. shooting down some OF the
demonstrantS.
Mr.. Crane believes that If any action
was taken leading to the imposition
against him OF a sentence OF twenty
years, as reported, 1t must nave peen
due to a misunderstanding. He recog-
nizes that the French military author
tiles in Syria may have misconstrued
the nature of the demonstration by
the natives around his automobile as
he was leaving Damascus after his
visit there early in April.
Tt-a SNy Ar 6rYoln
that he was in Syria solely as a pr.
vate citizen, admits that in the aeitateo
atmosphere prevalent in Syria tnere
may have been some feeling against
him, although he declared that In neither
Syria nor France has he met with any
thing but courtesy from the French
He declares he has no intention OF
taking the matter up with the Frencn
foreign office in the present stage OF the
affair. preferring to regard the report
as erroneous until it is proved other
wise His friends point out that the
report came from Cairo and was based
on an article translated from an ARABIC
newspaper, leaving wide room for error.
as translations from this language vary
considerably.
They add that the conviction Of
number of Syrian leaders and their de-
scription as being friends OF MIR. Crane
NAV have resulted in the belief that
the latter himself had been sentenced.
Cranes Talk "Injudicious."
Troubles in Syria were provoked by
'injudicious talk" by Mr.. Crane, for
eign officials said, but up to the pres
ent moment they had no information
regarding any condemnation.
The French government appears 70
have no knowledge whatever OF the
case, beyond the fact that some dis
orders occurred during Mr.. Cranes
visit to Syria. They have no report
of either any conviction or even
prosecution of Mr.. Crane.
