DREMIER STAMBOULISKY of Bull
garia had some private conferences
with M Tchitcherin of Russia when
they were at Genoa, and the result ap-
pears to be that the Bulgarian govern
ment, formerly the declared opponent
of bolshevism, has changed front and
will line up with the soviet republic and
make its international policies conform
to those of Russia, Germany and Tur-
key. This will not only present a
solid combination against the allies
and the little entente, but also will

HHARLES r. CRANE of Chicago,
~ former American minister to China,
is a great traveller but he is not likely

French possessions. Word has come
from Syria that a French military

default, has found Mr. Crane guilty
of melting the recent uprising in the
French mandate and sentenced him
to twenty years in prison. A woman
Moslem teacher who was involved in
the outbreak was one of those selected
by Mr. Crane to receive educational
benefit in the United States He gave
her his check for $1,000 for travelling
expenses and this gave rise to the
charge that the American government
was substituting the rebels.

lions, and the later seems to have got
the best of it. The agreement virtually
will result in the reelection of the

cans will again have nearly half the
seats Notwithstanding the fact that
they represent less than 20 per cent Of
the electorate The British govern

of affairs, realizing that the treaty is
in danger.
Whatever condition Of temporary
peace may obtain in southern Ire
land, the warfare between that
part of the island and Ulster has ac-
quired new vigor, due to the outrages
perpetrated by Sim Feiners. Among
these was the murder of a member of
the Ulster parliament. This SO en-
ragged the Belfast government that 300
Sim Fein leaderS-all that could be
caught in the Ulster counties-were
seized in surprise raids and thrown
into prison. Premier Craig told parlia-
ment forcibIe action was demanded,
and he issued a regulation declaring
that membership in the republican
army was an offense in itself. His
energetic measures did not stop the
operations of the bombers and snipers.
