FEAR FRENCH PRESSURE

Lausanne Safeguarding of the
legitimate national interests of
the United States and Of the prin-
ciple of commercial opportunity
for all nations was officially set
forth as the guiding rule of the
American representatives, when
the Near East Peace Conference
resumed its labors in an endeavor
to restore peace between the
Allied powers and Turkey, and
between Greece and Turkey.
Joseph c. Grew, American Minister
to Switzerland and head OF the dele
cation. made this clear in a brief In.
augural speech following similar ad-
dresses by leaders Of the other dele.
cations. The conference then divided
itself into three committees, each of
which will take up subjects in dispute,
and active discussions on concrete
topics will be begun.
Minister Grew said the United
States welcomed the resumption of the
conference. It had convened on a sub
stantial basis; an understanding had
already been reached on a variety of
important subjects, and upon this firm
foundation the United States expected
soon to see erected that ediflce of a
Just and stable peace for which the
world was waiting with eagerness. OF
the position of the American repre-
sentatiyes. he said;
We are here for the same purposes
aud in the same capacity as before
the adjournment, participating not on
the footing of a belligerent against
Turkey. nor as party to the treaty
Of peace under negotiation between
the Allied powers and Turkey. but
none the less in fully representative
capacity and with full authorization
and competence to speak on behalf
of the Government of the United
States"
After affirming that, during the de-
hDerauons, the United states wished
to see legitimate national interests
and equal commercial opportunities
safeguarded. Mr. Grew declared that
If other issues arose or should ampli.
fication of the American position be
desired, the American representatives
would avail themselves Of the priv.
fleee of furfhar statement or co,,, ant
He concluded:
"As far may be within our proper
functions, and to the extent of our
power, we wish to assist in serving
that cause of peace"
No mention was made at the in
augurai meeting with the Turks of the
railroad or other concessions granted
either to American or other foreign

Washington,-The Department
of Justice filed in the United
States Court in New York a petit
ton in equity against the New
York Coffee and Sugar Exchange,
incorporated, and the New York
Coffee and Sugar Clearing Asso-
citation, Incorporated, in which
the court was asked TO enioin the
defendants "from further engag-
ing in and carrying out in the
United States a combination and
conspiracy in restraint of trade
and commerce in raw and refined
sugar"
The Governments action was an.
nounced by Acting Acknowledgement
Snyder.
The petition charges that as a result
Of fictitious transactions carried out by
the defendants, the price of raw sugar
in this country, and the price of re-
fined sugar to the consumer has been
increased since February an average
of more than 50 per 100 pounds.
1t further charges that these spec
ulative operations carried on for the
purpose and with the intent Of unduly
enhancing the price Of both raw and
refined sugar, and which have accom-
plished that object, constitute an un-
lawful combination and conspiracy in
restraint of interstate and foreign
trade and commerce"
The petition asks that the defend
ants be perpetually enjoined from en-
tering into or permitting to be entered
into any transaction on the exchange
or elsewhere involving the purchase,
sale and delivery of sugar unless the
person purporting to make such sale
has in his possession or under his con-
troll a supply of sugar adequate to
meet the requirements of such trans
action.
1t further asks that the exchange
and the association be perpetually en-
Joined from in any manner publishing
or making public any price Of sugar
established by transactions on the
exchange
The Government informed the court
that the exchange and the association
served no legitimate or useful pur.
pose in the marketing of raw and re
fined sugar. They exist only as
means of contracting and specuIating
with reference to supplies Of sugar,
which in many cases do not exist, and
for the purpose Of manipulation the
price of raw and refined sugar with
out regard to conditions actually OBJ
tanning in the industry, and regardless
of the law of supply and demand, and
solely for illegitimate gambling. spec
ulative profits and the enrichment OF
the parties to such operations and fire.

DECLARES COSTS TOO HIGH
Bureau To Make Survey OF 10000
Who Have Been Under Instruc-
tion Three Years-Progrsm
To BE Drafted.

Washington. = Gen. Frank 7.
Hines, director of the United
States Veterans Bureau, declared
rehabilitated veterans of the
World War SHOULD not be cared
for like babies,r at the national
conference of district managers
of the Ia regional Offices, when the
meeting opened here.
After calling attention to the fact
that 10000 of the $4,000 veterans now
in training have been under instrue-
tion for more than three years, he said
he believed that the real solution of
the training problem is to place the
men in positions.
THE men should be helped to stand
on their own feet and feel confident
that they are able to stand there. Do
not take away the confidence of the
men themselves to go it alone" he
said.
With the Veterans Bureau costing
$5OO,OO0,o00 year, or about one-tenth
of the entire Federal income from all
sources. General Hines told the man
ayers that they must determine wheth-
/ er rehabilitation is going to produce
the results expected He expressed
the opinion that the work being done
should be handled for less money.
Probably no problem is more ur-
gent than that of rehabilitation he
said We have $4,000 spigots run
ming from the Treasury Of the United
States. l hope they are all spigots
that ought to be running. It may be
that some should be closed. We are
reaching the point when we must de-
termine if the program of rehabilita
tion will produce the results expected
when it started There are 10000
men who have been in raining longer
than three years. We should COM
mence to see the result"
The district managers conference
was opened with a general discussion
of rehabilitation. A program for de-
termining what men no longer should
be kept in training probably will be
drafted.
Col. Charles r. Forbes. former di-
rector OF the bureau, expressed the
opinion shortly before he retired that
40 per cent, of the veterans. in hos
pitals and undergoing rehabilitation
were qualified to take their places
again in civil pursuits, but large
number preferred to remain under
Government care. drawing disability
compensation while receiving instruc-
tion.
A careful survey will be made of
the 10000 men who have been in train
ing more than three years to deter
mine their ability to make living in
civil life. General Hines already has
conferred with Ebert H. Gary. of the
United States Steel Corporation, and
other employers Of labor in large
quantities on the question of placing
rehabilitated men on self-sustaining
basis.
