Part in Recent War.
DECLARE POLICY JUSTIFIED
Critics Are Answered by Ad-
ministration Officials.
Quarreling at Conference Vim
dicates Q. s., They Say.

Washington. Nov 3o.-The bicker-
| ing and quarreling that has thus far
marked the progress of the Turkish
peace conference at Lausanne has
amply vindicated the policy of the
American government in being merely
an 'intere ed observer" at the ses-
sions, administration officials asserted
today in answering criticisms from
abroad that America is 'shirking re-
sponsibility' in the Near East.
Quite apart from the benefits de-
rived by keeping alcof from the po-
litical wrang1ihg of European nations,
administration spokeSme asserted to-
day that as a result os the policy pur-
sued by Richard Washburn Child,
chief American observer at Lausanne,
the United States now occupies a stra-
tegic and unassailable position in the
mad scramble oil concessions in
the Near East.
Interests VIII Be Protected.
Whatever disposition the powers
agree to IN ,ke of the rich oil fields of
Asia Minor, American Interests will
be fully protected. If the powers
Turkey, then the United States already
is on record as demanding equal rights
with Great Britain, with France and
nations in the development of those
fields. This claim is based upon the
open door and aoLal economic oppor-
tunity for air policy laid down by
Secretary of State Hughes at the be-
sinni # his inistration in notes
to the League of Nations.
If the powers mandate the terri
tory among themselves, then the
United States can claim equality in its
development because America was the
chief factor in winning the war.
Position Is Outlined.
The position of the American gov
ernment, as outlined by Secretary
Hughes, is:
Without The winning of the war
there would have been no mandates to
be allocated to the allied powers, for
the territories involved probably
would have BEEN German. AS an
equal, if not the major contributor to
allied victory. the United States is
justly entitled to an equal share of the
fruits of that Victory-regardles of
whether America accepted the treaty
of Versailles.
No treaty OF agreement of whatever
character between the allied powers
themselves can offset the fact that
America was a chief factor in the vic
tory over Germany and that, as a CO.
belligerent, she is entitled to a just
division of whatever benefits accrue
from the victory

HARD TO SELL IN GERMANY


Washington, Nov 30.-Efforts of
American manufacturers to compete
in Germany with Germany's own
products must be foredoomed to
failure. according to advices reached
by the department of commerce from
its representative in Germany. The
dispatches summarized today by the
department indicate that sporadic ef-
forts to re-enter the German trade
are being made without success be-
cause of the top heavy situation in
exchange rates.
when it takes about 5000 marks
to buy one dollars worth of American
goods" one of the consular dispatches
said, cit is evident at once that the
opportunity for selling American goods
profitably in competition with the
German goods at home must be fore
doomed to failure"

MacLemore, at left half, played

burg Normal is concerned.

hard game this afternoon, and be-
lieves the Washburn men are worthy
foe.
Washburn men went thru a light
signal practice last night preparatory
to the conflict this afternoon. The
men at Washburn are in good condI-
ton. it is said, and. predictions at

a game as they have played this year.

was expected earlier in the season.
