Harding Subscribes. For the

Washington, Jan. 5.-The first Is
sue of the Red Cross Courier. a
weekly newspaper established by the
American Red Cross to- replace its

ITO the Editor of the Red Cross
Courier:
81 am enclosing one dollar in pay
ment to subscription to the Red
Cross Courier for the year 1922, to
be, sent to me here at the White
House. The announcement of plans
to establish a national Red. Gross
newspaper on a subscription basis has
aroused my very deep interest, and l
wish to be among those who make up
the charter roll of readers.
"A Red Cross newspaper certainly
has it's place in the journalistic field,
for it will specialize on information
that it is exceedingly important to
have put before the country in a
comprehensive manner; and it will
carry a continuous message that is
particularly pertinent to the spirit
of the time and helpful to the ser
vice which people are seeking to rem
der, today more than ever before, to
each other and for the welfare of
the world.
"My heartiest good wishes for The
Red Cross Courier and the success of
it's mission"

New York Herald Bureau,
Washington, ID. c., Oct. B. }
While the United States Govern
ment is determined to maintain strict
neutrality in the political and military
situation in the Near East, it is be-
lieved here entirely possible that when
the time for peace conference be-
tween the allied Powers and the Turk
ish Nationalists comes American rep
resentation may be deemed essential.
President Harding and Secretary OF
State Hughes at all times have re-
fused to say what the United states
would do In case it were invited to
peace conference. The reason given
was that as conf erence has not yet
definitely developed the time for as
cusslng the American attitude toward
representation has not come.

out Of Territory Adjustments.

AS explained here. there are impor-
tant reasons for going into conference
while there are very strong reasons 70"
keepinr out OF IT, Many OF the major
questions relate to territorial ADJUST
n ents I'm which this country has no p4ri
or interest in any direct way. As ar
ms these questions are concerned Amer
lean participation would be necessarily
limited. because this country would not
put the stamp OF It's approval on any
territorial adjustment OF a territory
which is in a state OF perennial turmoil.
II is regarded as certain that the allied
Powers will invite the United states 70
participate. although any official inti-
nation to that effect Is kept secret. There
is every reason to believe however. that
the formulation OF American policy has
not yet reached the point where SecrH-
tary of State Hughes is ready 10 say
that the American answer TO an invlt u
ton will be mo" in capitals. There
are very few reasons II Is admitted.
why II should be advantageous TO be
"in" rather than out
II is recalled that after the Berlin
treaty OF 1877 the major Powers ana
agreements with Turkey which led to
discrimination against Powers not par
ties TO these agreements. 1t took the
United States several decades to place
itself In position Of equality with the
other Powers. and It is not so long ago
since an American Admiral was re-
fused entry 10 the straits because the
United States was not party TO the
agreement whereby Turkey was to az
ford such facilities.

Turks Inject Politics.

II appears from the part OF Gen.
Harington's dispatch received that the
Mudania conference has not been able
as vet 10 reach the military details Il
was called 20 consider. The Turks in
sisted upon introducing political issues
entirely outside the scope Of the con-
ference 1t is reported that military
dispositions In the neutral zones have
not vet been discussed, nor the British
positions at ChanalI II is understood
that all the Allies commanders returned
to Constantinople with Gen Harrington
and that all OF them arc consulting their
Governments.
Great Britain's greatest apprehension
all along has been that tho Turks would
mix up politics with the military posi-
tion. and the receipt OF Kemal's accept
ance OF the peace conference invitation
IL taken 20 hinge entirely upon the re-
suit Of Mudania. It ia regarded here
that the situation has reached a crisis
