MILITARY SITUATION
THOUGHT OBSCURE

Paris. Oct. &c P,-The extraor-
dinary sitting OF the league of ma
tions council, called TO consider the
Greco Bulgarian crisis, was opened
here at $3.50 this evening and ad-
journed So minutes later.
The fact that apparently neither
Bulgaria nor Greece thus far has
obeyed the injunction of NJ. BRAND,
as president OF the council, to with
draw troops behind their respective
frontiers caused considerable un-
easiness in league circles while Of
ticials were awaiting the opening Of
the council meeting.
The new Bulgarian note to the
league emphatically denies the
Greek version as to the origin OF
and responsibility for the conflict.
The note states that the Bulgarians
proposed the appointment of a COM
mission of inquiry at the outset but
that the Greek government failed to
reply and dispatched considerable
hostile forces into Bulgarian terri
tory.
The invasion was accompanied, :"
says the note. by veritable acts OF
war, the artillery, infantry and air
planes all firing on the defenseless
| population"
In conclusion the note states that,
considering the fact that Greek
troops are still occupying Bulgarian
territory, the Sofia government is
unable to enter into direct negotia-
tions with Athens.

is better off in this worlds goods than his foreign counterparts, the la Dor situation overseas did not appear without blemishes to A. B. Swales, chairman of the General Council Of the Trades Union Congress, who re gently returned from an official tour of the United States.
 Mass production, gigantic combl- nations of employers -trusts-and the ruthless oppression of large numbers of unorganized and ill-organized work CTS are features that strike the in quiring trade unionist from England he wrote upon his return. Never theless, I did notice that the Ameri- can worker, in the main, is able to live properly and decently on what he receives in wages, in contrast to the dull drudgery and semi-starvation of most of the workers in England.
 T asked a joiner from England who had been in the United States for sev- eral years if he would like to go back to the old country, and l received this reply: q would like to go back

ENGLISH LABOR CHIEF FINDS U. s. CONDITIONS
 SUPERIOR TO BRITISH

LONDON, Feb, 7.-The death of Samuel Gompers and the coincident return home of British visitors to the American Federation of Labor con- ventions have served to focus many English eyes upon the living and the working conditions and aspirations Of organized labor in the United States.
 What most seemed to strike the British was MT. Gompers' conserva- tism, his Tory-like intolerance of red radicalism, and the stern way in which all his life he opposed, and with success, every effort to make Of the American labor organizations a unified political power in the Euro pean manner.
 Although every observer seems to agree that the American Workingman

very much, but I could not live there as we'll and as comfortably as I can here"
 Mr. Swales cautions his countrymen against wholesale emigration to the land where workers ride home to din- ner in their flivvers instead of having to cook midday Ripper over glowing charcoal. Incfeased unemployment is on the horizon in America he says.
 "A significant factor" according to MT. Swales, lis the many demands being made by the employers for a review of the wage agreements, and for wage reductions in many indus tries. It is the usual method adopt ed, such as we have experienced in England these past few years, of cut ting wages to maintain dividends and profits when fall in trade happens.
 "The American workers are prepar- ed for the attack, and these attempts will be met with stubborn resistance.
 British workers should be alert and watch developments in America, for any lowering in their standards will without a doubt have serious effect in this country. We must be ready and prepared to support our fellow workers across the Atlantic
 To the observant eyes of MT. Swale the American people look happier and more content than do the people of England. He found lack of that black tragic look of despair in their faces, so often met with in indus trial England.
 Still" he continued, "this was be- cause there was a greater demand for skilled and semi-skilled labor than the supply" a demand which he believes to be on the ebb.''

By-play Eases Monotony
 of Dull Opium Conference

GENEVA, Feb. 7.-"When East meets East" might be one of the sub- titles given to the second opium con- ference here under the auspices of the League of Nations. Throughout the sessions the by-play of Dr. Sze, Chinese minister at Washington, and Councillor Sugimura of the Japanese embassy in Paris, has enlivened many a dull day of deliberation.
 Sze speaks perfectly colloquail Am erican," being a graduate of Cornell, and a Phi Beta Kappa man to boot. Sugimura on the contrary, persists in speaking very florid and grandi- loquent kind of French, with frequent references to the great principles of the Revolution" One day the two came to close grips on matter of restriction of the opium trade.
 SZe blazed away in English, which Sugimura understands perfectly, but is hesitant about speaking. Sugimura replied in French, which Sze under stands very we'll but will not venture to use as a medium. Things looked dark The official interpreter started to translate Sugimura. Then Sze arose:
 Mister Interpreter" he beamed, with that bland Chinese smile, you don't need to bother about us. You can tell to look at us that we are Orientals, and therefore fully capable of understanding one another-no matter what language we may be speaking"
 The laughter that followed helped to smooth over the moot point

SCENES OF sPLENDOR IN
 IAWFUL LARCENY" TONlTE

Allan Dwan's new Paramount pro duction Lawful Larceny" which will be the feature at the Liberty tonight, is filled with scenes of splendOr sell dom attempted by the average pie ture producer. The prologue presents Nita Naldi as Cleopatra in her court on the Nile. The atmosphere of an cient Egypt was brought to the Long Island studio through the erection of one of the largest sets ever built on the huge stage. Nita Naldi in the raiment of the champion charmer of while huge black slaves fan her and demure handmaidens bring viands and wine for her pleasure. While Sonia Tomora, classic dancer, interprets an Egyptian dance, Cleopatra spurns lover after lover in contempt
 All this is shown preparatory to the appearance of Miss Naldi as Vivian Hepburn, a modern charmer. The Egyptian motif is carried through out the picture in Vivian's New York apartment, which gives vivid coloring to many scenes in this picture. At the same time MT. Dwan has preserv- ed all the drama and heart interest of the story-a swift moving tale of the intrigues of women against men and men against women, with the honor and integrity of home hang ing in the balance
