MOSUL DISPUTE
TAKEN UP BY
LEAGUE
Stormy Session of Council ls
Foreseen as British Clash
With Turks
BY FRANK e. MASON
International News Service

GENEVA, Sept. 2.-The thirty
fifth session of the League of Ma
tons council opened here today with
breakers ahead.
The long-standing Anglo-Turkish
dispute over the rich oil bearing
territory of Mosul is on the agenda
of the council, and unless a salts
factory solution can be found war
clouds may be expected to gather
again in the East.
Both the Turks and the British
claim Mosul. The Turks claim that
Mosul is Turkish, because the popu-
lation is Kurdish and Turkey occu-
pied Mosul at the time of the Mould
ros armistice and it was only after
the Turkish arms were laid down
that Great Britain walked in and
took control Of the Mosul oil fields.
The British maintain that MosuI
has a population that is mainly
Arabian or Assyro-Chaldean and
therefore belongs to 1rak, over
which Great Britain has a mandate.
The problem of Mosul has long
endangered eastern peace and the
matter is now brought 20 a crisis
tons commission, appointed to in
vestigate the rival claims for con-
troll Of Mosul. The report of this
commission has satisfied neither
London nor Angora.
The commissions report, read
officially for the first time in the
council today, declares that If
Britain gives up it's mandate over
Irak that MOsul should belong 10
Turkey for Irak would not be able
to protect 1t. On the other hand
If Britain maintains jts mandate
over Irak for twenty-five years
there should be a rectification OF
the Mosul borders giving Turkey
only a part of the disputed area.
Aristidie BRAND, French foreign
minister, presided at the opening
Of the councils session at 11.25 a.
M, and after listening to commits
tee reports the council went into
secret session at 11.45 to discuss
the Mosul question. The Turks i'm
mediately requested the adjourn
ment of the discussion for several
days, and it was agreed to post
pone the matter until tomorrow.
Reports were circulated today
that M. Chicherin, foreign minister
OF the Soviet government, was en-
route to Geneva to be present for
the meeting of the League assem-
bly, on Monday, but there was no
confirmation of this report here.
Informal discussions Of the pro-
posed European security pact are
In progress and 1T is understood
that NJ. BRAND and Austen Cham
berlain, British foreign minister,
hope for a conference in Lausanne
with the German Chancellor Stresse
man. after the conclusion Of the
meetings Of the assembly. This
conference. it is understood, would
concern Germanys entrance into
the League, as a part of the frui-
ton of the security pact proposals.

DISPUTES
To PUSHED
IN COURT
[ Landlord and Tenant Difficult
ties Over Old Law, Not
Dead, Is Claim

Numerous Inquiries received by
A. Coulter Wells, special assistant
TO the District Attorney in charge
of rent cases from property owners
and tenants, seem to indicate that
they are under the impression, that
the rent law being dead, no further
legal action on the part of either
landlord or tenant to adjudfcate
disputes arising before the law
went into the discard, Is possible.
Emphatically denying this to be
the case, Mr.. Wells today stated
that 334 suits are pending I'm the
Municipal Court, the aggregate
amount of excess rent claimed of
which is $80,911.8S and that every
one Of these disputes will be heard
and adjusted.
Referring to the law governing
the matter, Mr.. Wells quoted from
section II which states that ''ir
the case Of any proceeding begun
under the provisions of section ia
before the termination of this title,
or any proceeding on appeal from a
determination of the commission be-
gun before the termination of this
title, such proceeding may, after
such termination, be continued in
LHC Cc14AlO HldiAlGE Will tic, SdlHS
effect as if this title had not been
terminated, and all powers and
duties in respect to such proceed
ings vested in the rent commission
by this title shall for the purpose
Of such proceedings be vested in
the Attorney General"
Another section Of the law states
that: ANY right or obligation based
upon any provision of this act trent
law or upon any order OF the
commission, accrued prior to the
termination of this act may after
termination of this act be enforced
in the same manner and with the
same effect as If this act had not
been terIninNed.'
Mr.. Wells said that any viola
ton Of this act or of any order Of
the commission, committed before
the termination Of this act may,
after such termination be prose
cuted by and in the name OF the
Attorney General in lieu OF the
commission in the same manner
and with the same effect as IL
this act had not been terminated.

Government Starts Inquiry
Into Rubber and Other
Foreign MonopoIies
By ROBERT S. THoRNBURGH

By ROBERT S. THORNBURGH
With a gigantic world trade war
in full swing, the foreign trade of
the United States in the next
twelve months is expectde to ex-
coed $9,5O0,000, Department of
Commerce officials estimated to-
day?
Under the direction of Secretary
of Commerce Hoover the Govern
ment is waging with increasing
intensity its campaign to put the
manufactured products of the ma
ton in every market of the world.
Investigation of MonOpOlies
Studies of foreign markets, do
mestic commercial conditions,
sources of supply and investiga-
lions Of methods by which Amer
lean producers can be made inde-
pendent of raw material monopo!ies
controlled abroad viii extend TO the
II.
Agents and branch offices of the
Department of Commerce are so
distributed that manufacturers and
exporters in all States are being
kept in close touch with the de-
mands Of foreign nations, as well
as commercial conditions abroad,
knowledge OF which is essential to
proper conduct of international
trade.
In spite of the great increase of
trade since the depression after
the abnormal war years, the bust
ness of the country is not expected
to reach the record Of $4,000, 000,-
600 established in 1920 for five or
six years.
The foreign trade in the year
ending July 1 was $S,6S2. 100000
representing an increase Of over
1926, 200, 900 from 1923-1924. A sim
liar increase this year will bring
trade to nearly $4,000, 900, 900.
Neat Balance Expected
Although the demands OF Ameri-
can producers for foreign materials
are increasing and the volume Of
import business is far greater than
in pre-war years, business of the
country is expected to benefit by
a favorable trade balance exceeding
81 200, 900 900 in the coming year.
Officials explained that this con-
dition is due to the fact that the
advance in price of imported ma
terials is not as great as the price
boost for exported articles.
United States produces, consumes
and sells more goods than any other
nation. In spite Of her tremendous
demands for raw materials which
must be satisfied by imports, the
superiority of the finished product
is sufficiently great to command
better prices than are obtained Tor
foreign goods.
Government experts are not wor-
RED about foreign competition.
Activity in South America
They pointed out that while the
outstanding feature of the interna-
tional trade situation is the coming
conflict among the great exporting
nations, there is every reason to
believe that this country will out
distance its two rivals-Great Britain
ard Germany.
United States is aiming her COM
merciaI conquest particularly at
South America where this country
has over $4,000, 100000 invested in
productive enterprise.
This investment represents a re-
placement of European capital and
a direct contribution to the develop
ment Of hitherto untouched sources
of wealth.
The expanded purchasing power
finds its requirements in the newer
products Of industrial ingenuity
which have been the particular forts
Of American manufacturers.
