Belgian Delegate's Plea Against
Disarmament and for, Interna
. tional Force Is Given. Applause.
By Henry iVood
United press Staff Correspondent.
Geneva, Nov. 20. The League of
Natfons has come to stay. That
was the confident assertion tonight
of delegates sitting through the as
sembly's first -week of debate
The general belief Was that the league
was safely launched and that all now
remaining- to be done ia finishing and
decorating. A few changes' may be
made in the original plans but in the
main, they believed, the vessel is com
plete and ready for her career.
Germany's possible admission was one
of the big questions of the week, but
coupled with this was criticism of the
league's council for Its secrecy. A plan
to amend the method of selecting the
council was put before the league today.
OPPOSES DISARM A3IENT
General disarmament, the hope of
many leaders at the peace conference, is
.impossible, M. Lafontaine, Belgian dele
gate, declared before the assembly Sat
urday. V
. "The league must rest . upon the
strength of the national armies which
, are at its disposal, then it will be at
the mercy of no one," Lafontaine de
clared. He declared that as the situa
tion now stands, 42 nations, with armies
numbering millions, the league has been
unable to save Armenia.
He demanded an international military
force under a general staff to demon
strate the effectiveness of the league.
Lafontaine was rewarded with tre
mendous applause. -
GERM AST'S POSITION- ' '
Germany's position is : peculiar. , By
notifying the league assembly that she
does not consider herself bound by the
clause giving up her colonies because
the treaty has been Invalidated, Ger

Ization. Germany was believed to have
' the support of most of the strong Latin
and the .Scandinavian countries, and it
will be crtaln she will be Invited to
apply for membership at the next ses
sion of Die assembly. :
Recommendations for -a change in the
method of selecting the powerful league
council were" put forward by New ton
t Howell, Canadian delegate.
' "Canada is convinced the league of
Nations is . the ; surest solution of the
world's problems, chief of which, is the
economic," Rowell declared.,
"But unless the nations represented
in 'the council are willing" to carry out
the council's decisions-rwhich they have
not done to date then we must change
the system of naming members of the
council. ' We should let the assembly as
a whole choose the councillors hereafter."
MAT BLOCK V. 8.
Among delegates, it was believed the
league is too firmly established after
this first week of debate to permit the
United States to launch another associa
tion of nations.
All delegates appeared anxious to make
concessions to obtain America's entry
but those nations which have been hold
ing off or participating lukewarmly in
its affairs," have been forced Jo Join
whole heartedly in the meetings. -
The opinlon of well Informed observers
as well as delegates was that President
Wilson's league is a .concrete organiza
tion and a most formidable reality, while
any other organization Just now is nebu
lous. '
There was criticism of the president,
however, for insisting on the Article X.
This criticism was more apparent when
-delegates began talking of the necessity
of making still other changes in the
covenant before It will satisfy the mem
ber nations as well as meet the world's
" practical needs rather than the idealistic
conditions its founders visualized.
U. S. May Recognize Mexico
lr Legal Queries Are Met
By David Lawrence
(Copyrisht, 1920, by The Journal)
Washington, Nov. 20. The United
States government stands ready to
recognize the government in Mexico
over which President-elect ! Alvaro
Obregon will rule next month, pro-)
vlded the legal questions pending
between the two governments can
be. satisfactorily adjusted. For the
first time in more than a decade
a government has arisen in Mexico
which appears to realize fully the
necessity of cooperation with the
United States, but public opinion below-
the Rio Grande is still as sen
sitive about any attitude that might
seem cringing or suppliant.-.
This accounts for the official state
ments Insisting that Mexico cannot af
ford to accept any recognition which has
conditions attached to it. Naturally the
American government has no desire to
impose conditions as such. Moreover,
the Washington administration realizes
that'" American public opinion will not
be satisfied with mere promises and that
actual performance is necessary. Some
start must be made toward - the settle
ment of pending difficulties and when
enough action has been taken by the
Mexican government to warrant a belief
that the points which the United States
wishes cleared up will be eventually

Roosting High
At 60 Cents
Producers of Thanksgiving Morsel
Holding for Top Figures;
Cranberries Hit Up Grade.'
By Ilyman II. Cohen '
The . Thanksgiving turkey will
cost consumers 60 cents a pound
unless the growers relent, and even
this price will not meet with the
profit view of retailers.
Sales and shipments of turkeys at
leading. Willamette valley points are the
smallest known for many years. This
is due to the fact that growers there
had been advised by farm agents to
hold their turkeys for the extreme price
and they are doing it.
Turkeys without cranberry sauce are
scarcely to be considered, and the sauce
will cost more money this season, the
average price being 25 cents a pound as
compared with the normal around 15
cents. Not only is there a higher price
for cranberries but, due to failure of
Eastern stock id arrive, a shortage is
threatened.
There are plenty of crabs and a liberal
supply of oysters In sight for the holiday.
Oysters are costing little more than the
normal price before the war ; although
that was very high.
For the first time In many years ample
supplies of fresh crabs are available,
but these are generally selling around
45 to 5ft .cents each for the large size,

SECRET DEALS
State Department Sends jNote to
Great Britain Regarding Her
Oil Agreement With France.
Points Out Action Is Violation of
Stand Taken by America for
Equal Rights for Mandatories.
Washington, Nov. 20. (y. P.)
The United States has dispatched a
note to Great, Britain protesting
against secret agreements between
the allies for the exploitation of ter
ritories of the former Turkish em
pire, it was learned tonight.
The note Is the second of a series be
tween the United States and Great Brit
ain since a recent agreement between
Great Britain and France forj exploita
tion i of oil resources of Mesopotamia
came to light some time ago.
The present note Is understood to be
addressed to Lord Cwrzon, British min
ister for foreign affairs. The entire
correspondence with Great Britain prob
ably will be made public by the state de
partment early next week.
STANDS FOR EQUAL RIGHTS
The first note was sent to Great
Britain several months ago as an in
quiry into the agreement reached at San
Itemo, Italy, between England and
France on Mesopotamia oil territory.
The state department is understood to
have pointed out in this note the agree
ment was in violation of the stand of the
United States that all nations must be
given equal rights in mandate countries.
Great Britain holds, the mandate over
Mesopotamia. The agreement between
Great Britain and France provided for
an apparent division between the .two
countries of the oil supplies of Mesopo
tamia.
The reply of Great Britain to the first
note of the United States is understood
to have said that the agreement did' not
prevent any other nations from the com
mercial exploitation of Mesopotamia or
prejudice -their rights, but the
pact was
merely intended to facilitate greatly
needed oil supplies to the two countries.
CONTAINS I. S. POLICY ' , ' ;
The note which is now. being senti-by
the state departmentln -njwtff HwtHt
British rejoinder to the' first J American
note is believed to contain a broad dec
laration of policy on the question of .man
date territories. It is expected to 'cover
other cases of what the United States
regards as exclusive exploitation of man
date countries by the principal allies.
The recent ' trl-partite agreement be
tween Great Britain,. France (and Italy,
creating special spheres of influence for
these countries in Turkey, may be taken
up in the present note. The policy to
be set forth by the United States will be
held applicable to ail cases of mandate
territories, however.
The position of the United
States on
this question was
President Wilson's
first
announced in
note
to
the allies
protesting against the ternks
of the
Turkey
Turkish treaty, which allowed
to' hold Constantinople. The! president
stated that the United States expected
that American citizens were tjo be given
rights in commercial enterprise in Turk
ish territories and mandates to be cre

Lloyd George Is

Paris, Nov. 20. "If France will con

from Germany it is not impossible that
Germany will pay.
1 will be the first to lay my two fists
on1 the table alongside those of the
French premier to compel th payment."
Premier Lloyd George of England is
thus quoted in an interview obtained by
the London correspondent of the Petit
Parisien. j
The question of fixing definitely the
indemnity desired from Germany has
been the subject of many exchanges
between France and England. France
has favored a sliding scale to be
increased as Germany's productiveness
grows while England has favored a
fixed amount to facilitate Europe's
getting to a definite economic restor
ation basis.
