Problem
(Rv the Associated Press

Lausanne, Nov. 2S.-The question
of Thrace was again before the COM
mission of military and territorial
matters at the Lausanne conference
today. Ismet Pasha was expected to
make long speech on Turkeys
claim for a plebiscite in western
Thrace.
The enthusiasm of the Turkish
delegates for a plebiscite has evl-
IDENTIFY been considerably dampened
by the discovery that England, Italy
and France are solidly united
against the claims of the Turks to
western Thrace. The nationalists
are also considering the significance
of a meeting of the Balkan delegates
last night at which it is understood
there was a discussion Of the policy
to be adopted by the Balkan states
of the question Of western Thrace.
1t was apparent today that
Greece, Rumania and Jugoslavla,
in view of the opposition to a pie
biscite expressed yesterday by the
entente spokesman, have the hearty
support of the three great powers
in their efforts to prevent Turkey
from extending her western bound
ary beyond the Martha river.
The meeting Of the Balkan repre-
sentatives which was called by
former Premier Venizelos of Greece,
was regarded in conference cilcles
as of considerate Importance be-
cause it was the first time in many
years that Greece, Bulgaria, Jugo-
s!avia and Rumania has came to-
gether. to present united front on

ent from Many Others

Washington, Nov. 23.-Thc way
cleared for the beginning of the fight
in the house today over the admin
'stration shipping bill, giving right
of way by the adoption of resolu-
ton brought in by the rules COM
mittee Yesterday - =" ~.
Although the resolution, which
carried provision for unlimited
amendment and vote on final pas
sage November 20, was adopted by
\ vote of 200 to 40, house leaders
did not believe this could be taken
as an indication of the final lineup
on the measure. On the basis of a
survey taken after the initial skirm-
ish, however, majority leaders today
were predicting margin of at least
25 votes for the bill. This margin
was claimed in the face of virtually
solid Democratic opposition agreed
upon at party caucus Immediately
after adoption of the resolution.
Makes Plea For Bill.
Representative Greene Of Massa-
chusetts. chairman of the house mer-
chant marine committee told the
house today that the administration
shipping bill would create and ade-
quate merchant marine, increase
Americas foreign trade, retain in
the country $3OO,OOO,OOO annual in
freight money, give work to thou
sands of men and guarantee the ma
tion against the necessity of again
bein faced with the task of build
ing war time merchant fleet.
ut is because American shipping
in the foreign trade, alone of all our
industries has not been aided in the
past that it has gone down." Mr..
Greene asserted. "In this bill we
are seeking to remedy long years of
discrimination and Injustice
The word Subsidy" Mr.. Greene
said, had become a "Bugaboo" to
some and he asked the house to dis
associate it from their minds in con-
sidering the measure.
"What are the irrigation dams and
water sheds set up by the federal
government in cooperation with GER
tain states if not form of subsidy
to land owners, stock raisers and
agriculturists ?" he asked. "What
are the land rants and frapchises
given to railroads? Subsidy. What
are the advances made for highways?
Subsidy. What are the farm mort
rage banks for if not TO provide
those concerned at least an indirect
subsidy? These are beneficient ap-
plications of principle with which
the public is thoroughly familiar.
Why deny its potential beneicence
in another quarter because it hap
pens to come forward under diff
ferent designation ?"
Plan for Payment.
Mr.. Greene said the bill provided
a merchant marine fund of $4,OOO,00O
annually to which would be added
ten per cent Of the annual customs
duties, amounting to about S30,0OO,-
900. Excess earnings of ships re-
ceiving compensation also would go
into the fund.
Compensation to ships would bo
authorized for periods not exceeding
10 years. Even with this aid, Mr..
Greene said, American ship owners
would have to show initiative and
enterprise because the comper sation
would not equalize the difference in
labor cost between American and for
eign ships.
