THE OREGON x DAILY JOURN AU PO RTLAND,"- TUESDAY. - APRIL 80. 1920. PLANSPR0GRESS1NG FOR INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL UNION By Paul Scott Mowrer Spsckl Csbls to Th JottriMl vaA tin Chiew Dmllr Ntm. 0rrriM. 120, by Chieaao Dlly n Co.) Paris, April 20. Plans ar going; forward for an International finan. cial conference to be held In Brussels early In May. The Belgian govern ment. It is announced, will ask the conference to recommend the estab lishment of Ions-term International credits under the auspices of the league. A demand for the artificial regulation of exchange rates is also expected to be made. OBSTACLES ARE HAISED The league's Investigation commission for soviet Russia has been meeting Irk rorne difficulties. The soviet govern ment seems to hesitate to guarantee the nftfety of the league's Investigators and i demands the names of all the mem bers of the commission before tbey are granted permission to enter Russia and insists that the soviet shall have the right to send similar commissions of Inquiry into all the countries that are members of the league. Even the ma terial obstacles seem to be considerable, nd It is now anticipated that the com mission will have to take Its own train ot automobiles to Russia, All these things make it doubtful if the commts s'on can start before May. in which case Its report can hardly be expected before September. LEAGUE IS DEVELOPING The League of Nations has developed greatly in the last few weeks, and the main outlines of its eventual form are becoming clearer and clearer. A com mission of Jurists of international repu tation has been appointed to study the creation of an international tribunal to fctar the complaints of ethnical minorities st.4 states with grievances. This tri bunal seems to meet the demand ex pressed in the platform adopted in Fet ruary by the New 7ork Republican con vention and which Indorsed by the Republican 'party a Its national con vention. Another commission has been appoint ed of transportation experts to study all questions of international traffic, A third commission of experts will study questions of hygiene and relief, with a view to making the health regular tlons more uniform throughout the world. Recommendations for anti-alcoholic and anti-tubercular campaign are expected, with a demand for better lodg ings in the large centers, and with sug gestions for the prevention of contagious 4,seases and the establishment of per manent research bureaus. These three Important commissions will doubtless be added before the end of the year, together with a financial and an economic commission, the last named succeeding the old supreme economic counciL MEMBERS ARE SPECIALISTS Like the international bureau, which they closely resemble in form, all the new commissions are semi-autonomous. Their members are not officials, but specialists and technicians. Each com mission will hold an annual conference with delegates from all countries. The duty of the permanent technical corps will be to prepare for these conferences and carry out their decisions. The Uague organisation seems, therefore, to be taking the form of a number of more or less Independent commissions grouped tinder the central council. Its activi ties will evidently be political and eco nomic as, well as judicial. Alleged White Slaver Dines With Accuser X'arls, April 20. George Baklanoff, the Russian baritone of the Chicago op era house, who left April I after having been arraigned on charges under the Mann White Slave act, was discovered at the Hotel Lotti here, dining in the moo amicable and intimate atmosphere with Elvira Amazar, also known as Miss Ro8en8tein, who had preferred the charges against him in America. Bak lanoff left Paris after a several days' stay. He expects to fill engagements in Germany and Austria. TURKS ATI! T Would Take Son's Place Yarmouth, Eng., April 20. (U. P.) Hearing sentence of four strikes of the birch passed on her son, an incorrigible boy. a mother burst into tears and begged the magistrate to allow her to take the punishment in his stead. TO CRUSH REBELS WITHOUT EFFECT By Constant yne Brown Bpcriel Cable to The Journal and tbs Cbfcaco Daily News. (Copyrlfht, 1920. by Chicago DaDy lrw Co.) Constantinople, April 20. The task: of the new Turkish government to crush the nationalistic movement possessing effective forces appears to be more difficult than was antici pated at first. The sultan's procla mation branding Mustapha Kemal and his followers as rebels reached only a few towns in Anatolia. Most of the places In the Interior are un der nationalist controL The tale graph operators hand the proclama tions to the military chiefs who care fully hide them from the people. . TWELVE BATS TO RIPE2TT Today the cabinet council proposed to spread the proclamations with the aid of airplanes, but It soon realized that the idea was childish, in view of the immense area to be covered and the number of airplanes required. The sul tan's proclamation gives the rebels. 12 days In wbich to repent After that time drastic steps will be taken. It is difficult to fortsee how the government will be able to enforce- its threat, con sidering that it controls only the Con stantinople area and a few towns on the coast where British troops are sta tioned. Meanwhile, according to a trust worthy American report, Mustapha Ke mal continues his defensive preparations by arming the whole Mussulman popu lation. In the villages the male popu lation, after receiving arms and ammu nition, is allowed to go back to work, tut is asked to concentrate at certain points at the first signal. This system proved effective on the occasion of the first encounter with the British troops a fortnight ago. The men obeyed the appeal, and after a successful combat. returned ta their villages and again be came peasants. . ; . . This measure, devised by Kemal. is a source of great strength to him, as It enables him to keep an army perma nently without much expense, while at the same time It doefc not keep the men a long time from their usual occu pations. Americans are still courteous ly treated by the nationalists, who ap preciate the great welfare work of th missionaries. Tbey assist everybody, regardless of nationality or religion, though Greeks and Armenians are given preference. The occupation of Constantinople by the allies has not greatly affected the population of the Interior, for whom the most important question is that of Smyrna. -The Nationalists have decid ed to oppose with all their strength the occupation of that town by Greece VOLUNTEER MOTHER Woodard, Clarke & Co.!

Spray Faps, 0S $1.15 DEA FOR EUROPE IS GAINING RESPECT Paris, April JO. (I. N. 8.) Professor Paul Carnot of the University of Paris, who is advocating an "army of vol unteer mothers" to repopulate France, declared today that he had received hun dreds of letters from women, many of tl.em from noble women supporting his views. Professor Carnot had previously pro posed a "volunteer 'army of mothers.' This aroused considerable criticism but. not deterred by his critics, Profeasor Carnot followed it up in the Paris Medi cal, with another urging the right of v omen to have babies without the formalities of marriage. CRITICS GET HOT ANSWER Professor Carnot makes hot reply to those who advocated his expulsion from ihe medical staff of the University of Paris because of his views. "There are now more than 15,000,000 women than there are men in Europe and we are faced with the grave problem of extinction or maternity without mar riage," said Professor Carnot. "This is no time for foolish criticism. fcaBed upon man-made laws . when the fundamental law of the universe says man shall not perish from the earth. My critics would be surprised from the hundreds of letters I have received from women with touching confidences. SITUATION IS SERIOUS "I have heard from many noble women who said that the idea of living alone was a hideous nightmare to them. They face a situation un pare led in the world's history when millions of women are un able to get husbands. They "have a per fect right to rear babies outside ; of : matrimony when their very eoula cry out for babies. j 1 "It Is not true that the fear of ma ternity arrests motherhood. It is the fear they will not be able to feed their children. European nations should rec ! cgnlse this fact and set aside large sums i to encourage women now unable to,. mar ry to have cnildren without financial worries." GERMAN MILITARY FACfflNTfflGEJIN By Paul Sco Mowrer Bperlal Cable to The Jonrnal sad The Chicago Daur .Nrw. (Copyriebt 120. b Chicago Dafljr Oo. Paris, AprU 24. The Germaji dep uty. Otto Brass, one; of tho leaders In the Ruhr uprising, ha given Henri Ribot, France' foremost mil itary critic, an important statement In which the deputy affirms that the Ruhr insurrection was not commun istic, but was directed solely against the German militarists. Herr Brass declares ' that there were three "free corps" in the Runr vaiiey, contrary to the term of the treaty, prior to the Kapp coup d'etat, namely, tne Lichtschlae- corns at I Osnabruck, the Latsow corns at Remscheld and t Schulta corps at Mulhelm. SEIZURE IS PLANNED Dr. Kapp's plan was-that the Lutsow corps was to entrain for Berlin, while the other two were to seise the Ruhr re gion. The date for the Kapp coup was originally March 15, bu it was advanced two days because Dr. Kapp learned that the government had gpt wind of what was coming. The subsequent general strike kept LutzoWs colfps from entrain ing. While General vpn Watter, com manding the reichsweiir in the Ruhr district, whom Deputy.: Brass suspects of also being implicated in the Kapp plot, took an ambiguous attitude, Llcht schalf, on March 18, occupied the Ruhr valley. It was this move which caused the armed revolt of tlie workers. The workmen drove one corps to take refuge in the British zone ami another back on Unna. The workmen fthen held all of the Ruhr country except Wesel. Dreadful Experience ! Sunderland, Eng.. April 20. (U. R) Whirled round 50 times when caught In a rope making machine. Paul Sidney, aged 30. owed escape from death to the quickness of his father, who kicked a projecting beam aside and stopped! -the machinery. - BERLIN'S TERMS ACCEPTED March 23 was the date of the Bielefeld agreement between the workmen and Berlin. On March 24 -the reichswehr took the offensive from Wesel. The workmen nevertheless resumed work on the 26th. On the 29th came an ulti matum from Berlin. Deputy Brass him self was the negotiator and he accepted Berlin's terms. Immediately came a new ultimatum from General van Watter de manding the surrender of a large speci fied quantity of arms and ammunition within a time so brief that compliance was materially impossible. Deputy Brass telephoned to Berlin that he feared the reichswehr intended to ad vance. On the 31st Herr Severing min ister of the Interior, assured Herr Brass that It was not true. Scarcely 15 minutes after this assur ance Captain Lorens of General von Watter's staff ordered the reichswehr to advance. n April 1 the reichswehr ad vanced 30 kilometers (about lB.t miles). Berlin, according to Herr Brass, was powerless to recall them, Berlin ordered them not to pass the Ruhr, yet General von Watter by the 9 th had thrown more than 2000 troops beyond the rlvef, Among numerous letters and papers cap tured from the reichswehr, moat of which are as yet Unclassified, Deputy Brass expects to find proof that the for mer kaiser was implicated with the Kapp conspirators. 0 You Can Play This Piino Any day you wish you may have in your home a piano that you can play that every member of your family can play.
