Financiers. t. . : 3y p4B Scott Mowrer. " .Special Winlcu to Tha Journal aoa J he Chicago I '(CopTrifbt, J81. bjr ChJcaso Dally Xon Ca.) ; ..Paris. June 27. In a recent dispatch j l explained how and why Great Britain f uddenly reversed Its Turkish policy and ' t now desired to leave the Turks a certain amount of Independent territory. France seems to be supporting Great Britain in ..this policy, evidently hoping thereby to . ooiun a aominant nnanclal and political Influence in Turkey. : Thus there is reconstituted what is practicalhr an independent Turkey, and i at the same time the French hope to win American support for the Franco . British plan by promising: American financiers many contracts and conces sions in Turkey, thus avoiding; the ques tion of an American mandate in Asia ,. Minor which might be a source of con- flict with the American senate. With ' . this in view, certain anti-American rirop- aganda seems to have started In Con atantinople, where the party which fa- r-vored an American mandate had seem "inirly begun to assert itself. ' : i The tendency of the peace conference at present is to constitute an ever great : er Armenia with not only a wide coatt on the Black sea between Batum and Hamsun, but also a wide coast on the . Mediterranean between" Massina and ' i Tartua. France will probably make a bid for the Armenian- mandate' in case J., the United States refuses to accept it, as Is now believed probable.. - ' In "view of all these measures the s Italians express : keen dissatisfaction, ) feeling' that the part of Asia Minor sc- ; corded to them is 'disproportionately ; J. small. The Greeks also are djemanding , enlarged territory around Smyrna at the expense of the Italians on the pretext ithat the Italians in the Italian zone aia 1 allowing bands of Turks to be formed ; against the Greeks, and that unless ' Greek protection is extended to the ; Greeks there, they will be ' unable to cope peaceably with these bands. SEN IF M CUMBER SHOWS UP LODGE ARGUMENTS (Continued From Pu One) land has no vote, and none of those i,- can become a member of the council '. without athe consent of the United no subject In the world on which great nations would be so fully in accord as on the question of what is a domestic question. "Of course it would be within the right of Japan to present the Claim that our exclusion law was distasteful to her people and therefore affected our re lations with her. But no intelligent statesman pf Japan or any other coun try would ever suggest that the exercise of such a power was not the exercise of a purely domestic right. "But you say that the question of whether the matter complained of Is a domestic one must be decided by the council. Naturally someone must de cide that question. But just remember that the verdict must receive the affirm ative vote of every state in the world. outside the parties to the dispute, . and that the world must conspire In defiance pf the provisions of the covenant against the United States. COXSFIBACT BRINGS PEXAITT "To carry out such a 'conspiracy each nation would commit an act of suicide by establishing a precedent that would compel it to surrender its own purely domestic powers to a world league. To my mind it is simply unthinkable and not worthy of serious consideration. There is no danger on earth that Great. Britain, or France, or the United States, or any other nation of the nine nations would vote a precedent which would destroy the independence of each of them. " "On the other hand, there might be instances In which some irresponsible nation might claim that a matter clear ly international In character was one of domestic concern only and therefore not 'subject to consideration by either the council ; or the assembly, and it would not do to leave the matter in such shape that the mere claim of Its being a domestic concern only could eliminate from consideration of the council that which was unquestionably international, and hence the provision that not only the claim must be made that it is domestic, but that must found by the council to arise out of a matter solely within the jurisdiction of one party." States." f50THI5O TO FEAB FHOM COLONIES I Mr. McCumber argued at some length j that a dispute cannot be transferred J to the assembly for settlement except f it is sent there by the council. Admit ? ting that suchr construction is a mat r ter of some doubt, the North Dakota ; senator declared that if this is not cor- rect, and disputes can be sent to the ; assembly upon the mere demand of one of the disputants, this country has f nothing to fear from the votes of . Canada, Australia and New Zealand. Canada, he pointed out, has a popu lation of more than 8,000,000, with-an ' area larger than the United States, and ' It would be unfair, he . asserted, to , deny a country like Canada a place ; in the assembly when places are and must be granted to small countries such as Panama, Hedjas, Honduras and Ura ; guay. "From every principle of fairness," he continued, "there should be one forum in which Canada can have a voice, Australia a voice and New Zealand I' can . be heard. That right has been - granted so far as the assembly Is con cerned, but In the higher tribunal, the ' permanent tribunal, - under which this a system will decide practically every ; question of international dispute, Can ada ; and Australia, as separate enti ties, have no vote. Great Britain, which Includes them in her empire, will have one vote, the; same as the "United States, the same as Belgium and Brazil and Greece, no greater power, no greater strength, than the smallest nations whose representatives consti tute this council. IXFIOJrffS IMMIGKATIOJT QUESTION ' "It has been declared on this floor that under the provisions of the cove nant, the United States 'would be com pelled to submit for determination the question of Immigration and other do mestic policies. It is ureed that as ' Japan and China might declare that an exclusion law by the United States would threaten to disturb the true understanding and amity between either of these countries and the United States, . the - question of whether such" ' laws should remain or whether they consti- tute a breach of the international com pact could be passed upon by the coun cil or the assembly. There Is no foun- ; dation whatever for- fciich a claim". "It is true that the door is wide open for the presentation of any circum stance affecting international relations, no matter how trivial or how foolish. And.lt would be impossible to close this door evn partially if--we expect to in culcate a - spirit of friendship and trust. - We cannot in the instrument itself dif ferentiate between aH classes of cases . which might affect international smitv ; more clearly than has been , done by placing the' d6mestic questions entirely , outside the pale of international inter i 1 ference.

JAPANESE GROWERS CONSIDERED FOOLISH TO RAISE PRICE OF TEA Eastern Commerce, Trade Jour nal of Yokohama, Says Action Is One of Deliberate Suicide. Japanese tea growers and dealers by advancing the price of tea last month to about 30 per cent' over last season and allowing the, grade imported to America to decline In quality are as suming an attitudei of deliberate, suicide for their business, says an article in Eastern Commerce, the trade journal of the Far East printed at Yokohama. "Apparently the Japanese are under the Impression," says the article, "that tea is grown only In Japan and there fore tea drinkers can be forced topay whatever price they may fix. As a matter of fact, the consumption of Japanese tea has been declining In America during some years past and it has only been because of certain war conditions that the level of Japanese tea imports has been maintained. "Half of the poorer Japanese teas being produced could be dispensed with in the American markets without caus ing material inconvenience. Japan teas, as at present, have little semblance in quality of that produced five or ten years ago. "There is talk among Japanese tea dealers of propaganda In America with the object of stimulating the sale of Japanese tea, but all the propaganda in the 'world would not induce people to buy poor stuff at high prices. Some Canadian dealers have already gone Or a strike against buying Japanese teas. "In the meantime Ceylon, India, Java and China are offering tea at continu ously reduced prices and are gradually getting down to something like a pre war level." Crops according to the article were never better In Japan, and with the promise of higher prices mere tea is being planted. Tet there is a large supply of the two previous years crops in the storehouses. "A continuation of the absurd upward trend In prices and the disgusting lowering of quality will soon cause buyers in America to drop Japanese teas altogether," German Crews Left By Officers to Die When Vessels Sank London, June 27.
