-----.s--------------------- AMERICA ISSUES STERN WARNING
 TO ALLIED POWERS
tcontinued From Page one)

OHcJ be the American conception that uni- versal adherence to that policy would go far toward promoting world peace. In so doing, the ambassador stated the thought that has been uppermost in the minds of government officials Fhere in their approach to the Mesopo- tamia oil question. the adjustment of far eastern problems at the Wash ington conference, and similar diplo- matic exchanges.
 It was largely that feeling which dictated the reference by Secretary Hughes in his memorandum to the allies on the Near Eastern crisis, to the tri-parpre- agreement as 1920 as Typical Of secret treaties and agree rrents prescribing zones Of special commercial and economic influence, T, which are held bysthe United States to be,ynot ~"consonant with the pria ciple Of the equality of economic opportunity" 1'ses ss
 There can be no question that the Washington government views the present situation in the Near East with it's threat against world peace as natural outgrowth of the com rercial and economic rivalry among European powers that has kept the region in a ferment for years. The American solution would be to do away entirely with special commer- cial rights in Turks territory.
 Safeguard Christians
 The history of Near Eastern set dement's" holds slight hope, however. that such a result will flow immedi- ately from the Lausanne gathering. The Washington government must therefore be prepared to deal with the question to be raised later by whatever special rights in Turkey any power may have under the peace u eaty that is being negotiated. Am bassador Child was seeking to ma xe ths plain in his statement today.
 The United States. has Specifically disclaimed any desire for special treatment in the Near East. On. the contrary the chief desire of the Washington government in connec- tion with the Lausanne proceedings is known to be that the Christian countries, should stand united to maintain.-in substance the capitula- tions in Turkey which safeguard the nationals of = Christian states who might otherwise be subject to Mos lem laws and customs.
 It is highly improbable that the United States would be willing to surrender any of the rather narrow rights it's nationals have in Turkey, at least until there has been in fact. a complete reform and revision of the Turkish judicial system.

COMMISSION ENDS ITS PROBE INTO
 STAPLE INDUSTRY
Dial Will Press Measure to Re- lieve Growers of South, Fol- lowing Fight Made
 by Conner
WASHINGTON BUREAU THE AGE-HERAI.D


 The federal trade commission has completed it's investigation into the effect of cotton exchanges, operating under the existing law, on the cot ton market and prepared it's report for submission to the Senate.
 The investigation was made under authority of a resolution introduced last March by Senator N. B. Dial of South Carolina. From unofficial sources it is understood that the report will show that in the opinion of the commission the present law which permits an exchange to deliver to purchasers any one of 10 tender- able grade gives the exchanges an unfair advantage over purchasers, all lows the exchanges to manipulate the market, and thus deleterously af- fleets the cotton grower himself.
 If the report of the opinion is ac- curatc, Senator Dial declared tonight that he would regard 1t as distinct concurrence in his contention that the law should be so amended that  purchasers would be guaranteed an even break in all financial transac- tons with the exchange. He stated, too. his belief that if the investi- sating authority of the government, after an intensive study of nine months, had found existing law un fair in it's operation to cotton pro- ducers, Congress would no longer hesitate, in the interest of the farmer, properly to amend it.
 Initiated Ky Conner
 The fight for an amended cotton futures act was Initiated some time ago by E. B. Comer, then Q senator from Alabama The Conner amend ment went through the Senate with scarcely a dissenting vote, but failed in the House. When Senator Conner retired, Senator Dial took up the fight. His amendment. after pend ing before the Senate committee on agriculture for many months, was finally submitted with an unfavor- able report which the oommitte suf- fered Senator Ransdell of Louisiana, who had spoken in defense of the exchanges. to write. Senator Dial was given no encouragement by other senators from cotton growing states who had position on the com

Squirrels Surgery Effective.

Some New Brunswick schoolboys
trapped a squirrel some time ago. Its
skin and the flesh OF its legs were cut
through to the bone by the trap. The
little animal was put into a cage and
given some balsam boughs TO play
with. A schoolteacher happened to
pass by the squirrels cage. She
stopped to look at II and observed II
pick some balsam from the boughs
and apply to Its sore foot. The teach
er was interested In the little prisoner
and stopped to see II every day. and
the squirrel treated it's foot In the
same manner. When the hurt was
completely cured the boys gave 1t its
liberty and II seampered off as quickly

House Again Passes
Gree Seed" Budget

WASHINGTON-In years past
there has been a good deal of
difference in congress about free
seeds but this year the house
has offered little objection to the
bill providing for an appropria-
ton of 100000 for free seeds.
The subcommittee of the approp-
ration committee, which framed
the agricultural appropriation bill,
omitted the free seeds item this
year, but the house itself went on
record by an overwhelming vote
in favor of the seeds. A number
of congressman made speeches in
which they defended the approp-
ration on the ground that it is an
aid to farmers and gardeners, as
well as proper and practical help
from an educational standpoint.

WASHINGTON = Statements
brought out in the hearings be-

Commission show that prices of
coal have declinde approximately
81 ton in the last year, but that
fact has failed to stimulate buy
ing. The railroads use approx
mately % per cent of the coal out
put of the country, public utilities,
o per cent and house-holders 10
per cent. 1t has been shown by
witnesses before the commission
that the demand from those
sources is fairly constant. Sub
stantially all the remainder of the
soft coal produced in the United
States is used by industrial con-
Germs.
