tion, which was abandoned by
President Wilson and was revived

LAUSANNE. December 30-Plans
70 an Armenian national home.
financed by q possible s2o,oo0,ooO ap-
propriation bv the United States Con-
gress or a popular loan In America in
addition to funds from other coun-
tries, were presented to the near east
conference today by the American
delegation.
It is suggested in the American plan
that the Armenian home be located in
Cilicia Just north of the Gulf Of Alex
andretta. in territory containing about
$4,000 square miles.
The plan is the work of DR.. George
R. Montgomery. director of the Ar
menia American Society. who an
nounced he had just received a mes
sage from the United States saying
a resolution was being introduced in
the House OF Representatives author
izing President Harding to lend
$40. 100000 for this project If the
Lausanne conference made adequate
territorial provision for the home.
Ends Sixth Week.
The conference completes its sixth
week today with a solution of the
near eastern question still in the
making and with the allied and
Turkish delegations still at odds over
the important issues.
AS Ismet Pasha and his associates
awaited further instructions from
their government at Angora, whittier
they recently reported the impasse in
which the negotiations find them
selves. 1t seemed certain that a settle
ment of even one Of the troublesome
problems on the agenda could not
take place this year. 1t is believed
that Ismet in his report to his gov
the declaration of Lord Curzon that
the British government insisted upon
recognition of its mandate over the
Mosul vilayet.
q. 8. Pleads for Refugees.
Action by the allies on the Arme-
nian plea for a national home in Turkey
was expected today. The subcommis-
sion on minorities. which is wrestling
with ", this II o.. dificuls problem, rot listened
observers that refugees in Turkey be
allowed to return to their native lands
and that their property be restored to
them.
No progress was made by the subcom-
mission on minorities. before which the
American appeal was presented. when
general questions Of amnesty were under
discussion. The Jurists to whom the
amnesty clause Of the proposed treaty
was submitted reported they were un-
able to agree. as both the Turks and
Greeks had interjected too many con-
troversial political considerations.
DGunf Watt TJU0n An90ra
Confronted by persistent Turkish OBJ
jections, the subcommission voted to
drop the British amendment stipulating
the appointment Of a league Of nations
representative to supervise Turkeys
treatment Of minorities.
Apparently Angora must speak before
the Ottoman delegates can make con-
cessions Of q nature to ease the present
delicate position Of the peace nego-
tiations.

CABINET APPROVES
B0NAR LAW'SPLAN,

Hughes Statement May Go
Far in Aiding Paris Repara-
tions Conference.
By the Associated Presy

By the Associated Press.
LONDON, December 3O-Prime Min
lister Bonar Law will take to the
Paris conference of premiers a COM
plete plan upon which the British
cabinet passed judgment yesterday
in the hope of obtaining a French
agreement for final settlement Of
the reparations problem. it was an
nounced in British official quarters
today.
Details of Mr.. Bonar Laws repara-
is believed it will set down Germany's
total obligations at approximately
one-third the Versailles treaty figures
The British desire that the French
give Germany fair trial under the
new scheme. which. If 1t Is not pro-
ductive Of the desired results. would
be supplemented by French schemes
involving coercive methods.
Hughes Speech Helpful.
1t was stated in official circles this
forenoon that 1t was believed the
speech delivered by Secretary Of State
Hughes in New Haven last night would
be helpful to the Paris conference.
Public opinion here is not very
sanguine of the success Of the Paris
gathering, more especially since 1t Is
seen the French government is dis
posed to take advantage OF Ger
military sanctions. which 1t Is fore
gone conclusion the British govern
ment will not countenance. The be-
lief Is that Germany's timber default
only amounts to matter OF about
100000, which it Is considered Ger
and that. therefore. France Is seizing
on a small technical defult for action.
The attention of the British public
really is much more centered on the
outcome Of the mission OF Chancellor
Of the Exchequer Baldwin to the
poets of the United States taking an
active share in Europe's economic
difficulties.
Lauds Borah.
The Weekly Nation, discussing
American developments. says: Even
now the deciding factor at Paris may
not be London, but Washington"
Commenting on the proceedings in
the Senate at Washington. the Nation
thinks it a great misfortune that
Senator Borah has not visited Europe.
"for his courage. his moral force and
his unchallenged sincerity would
make him a singularly convincing
exponent of American foreign policy"
This newspaper believes that Mr..
Baldwin on reaching Washington will
find the ground favorably prepared
for him.

little Mouse was partly under 1t and
out of sight. Buster Bear simply
hooked his big claws into that log
and pulled it over just as he had done
with one other log under which the
little Mouse had tried to hide. With
a pitiful little squeak the little Mouse
started to run again. He was getting
very tired. 1t didn't seem to him
that he could run much farther. Every
second he expected to feel one of the
great paws Of Buster Bear. He didn't
look back. He couldn't. He had to use
his eyes to find another hiding place.
There seemed to be no hiding place
near. He ran and ran and ran until
finally he craw1ed under a little bunch
of dead leaves. He simply couldn't
run another step. That terrible black
giant would get him now! Oh, how
he did wish that he hadn't been
venturesome and headstrong and
never had left the dear safe home
where were his father and mother to
watch out for and look after him!
Why didn't that terrible giant
come? With his eyes tight shut the
Buster Bear didn't come. Little by
little hope grew in the heart of the
little Mouse Could it be that he had
been too smart for that terrible
giant? He recovered his breath. Lit
tie by little he grew less tired. All
the time ne kept pcI1GClis StLl- IL
must be that he had given that black
giant the slip. The little Mouse be-
gan to think well of himself. He be-
gan to think that he had been very
smart.
Presently he caught queer sounds
from the direction where he had last
seen Buster Bear. Somehow they did
not sound angry, like the noises he
had heard before. They were very
queer sounds. They were little
grunts and whines. If the little Mouse
had only known it they were little
grunts and whineS of pleasure. But
he didn't know it and presently he de-
cided that it would be best to get as
far from there as he could. So. peep
ing out to make sure that no one was
watching him, he took to his heels
and ran again. And all the time he
was running he kept thinking how
smart he had been.
Now the truth is that little Mouse
hadn't been smart at all. He had
been lucky. That was it-he had been
lucky. You see when Buster Bear had
pulled over that old log behind which
the little Mouse had darted he had un-
covered a great nest of ants. for ants
dearly love to make there nests under
old logs. Now the instant Buster
Bear saw those ants he forgot all
about the little Mouse. Buster is
very fond of ants. With his long
tongue he began to lick them up. 1t
was then that he grunted and whined
with pleasure. He was quite as we'll
satisfied to have those ants as he
little Mouse. Buster stayed right
there until there wasn't another ant
to lick up. Then. feeling very good
natured, he shuffied off and forgot all
about the little Wood Mouse.
