AMERICA MAKES
ANOTHER PLEA
FOR REFUGEES
Entente Expected to Decide on
National Home for Ar
menians Today.
BIG ISSUES DEADLOCKED
Final Decision as to Peace or
War in Near East Rests
With Turks.

LAUSANNE, Dec. 29.-(By A. PO
America made another appeal to-
day In behalf Of the Near East refu-
gees, when the delegates represent
ing the United States at the Near
East peace conference presented an
earnest plea that general amnesty
arrangements be negotiated with
Turkey and suitable provision be
made for Armenian and other refu-
gees who fed from Turkey and may
wish to return to their homes. The
Americans asked tha. Turkey en-
gage TO restore to those refugees
their property.
What action the entente Will take
on the plea of Armenia for a na-
tional home in Turkey will probably
be decided tomorrow morning. At
this time the delegates of France
and Italy viii consider the petition
which the Armenians presented to
the conference a few days ago.
No progress was made today by
the sub-commission on minorities
before which the American appeal
was presented when general ques-
sion. The jurists to whom the amnes-
ty clause of the proposed treaty was
submitted reported they were unable
10 agree as both the Turks and the
Greeks had interjected too many
controversial political considerations.
Confronted by persistent Turkish OBJ
jections. the sub-commission voted
to drop the British amendment stip-
ulating the appointment of a League
OF Nations representative to super
wise Turkeys treatment OF minori-
ties
The conference deadlock on the
big issues continues. Apparently
Angora must speak before the Otto
man delegates can make concessions
