The Supreme Council begnn its work
today with the intention of finishing its
remaining labors before night.
Tho French nnd Itnllan delegations
expect to leave San Itemo tonight. The
Ilritlsh train has been ordered to be
ready tomorrow morning.
The supreme council is sending a
formal rrniift to President Wilson that
the United States Government take the
mandate for Armenia.
The council is leaving to President
Wilson nrbltrntion of the differences
over the boundaries of Armenia.
The council awarded n mandate for
Mesopotamia nnd Palestine to Great
Dritaln and n mandate for Syria to
France.
In placing Palestine under n British
maudate the council established within
the ancient limits of the Holy Land
what is called "the national home of
the Jews."
To Protect nights of Jews
The terms of the mandate protect the
national rights of Jewish citizens of
other countries. Thnt is to say. a .Tew
of Amerlrnn. Drltish. French or other
nntionnlitv may retain his nationality,
although he is also n citizen of the state
of Palestine. The rights of Arabs nlso
are protected, there being 000.000 in
Palestine, and 100.000 Jews. The man
date is limited generally by what is
known ns the Halfour declaration.
Hritisb forces have been In occupation
of Palestine since the defent of the
Turkish forces by iscount Alienor.
Assurances have been given Zionist
representatives bv Ilritlsh delegates
here that the military administration
of Palrstine. which has been fur fiom
satisfactory to Jews, will be changed to
n sympathetic civil rule. Zionists are
represented in San Itemo by P.enjaniln
Cohen, of Chicago, who came from Pal
estine with Dr. Chajim Weizmaun,
president of the World Zionist Com
mission there.
"Zionism, os n political movement,
hns been euded with the crentlon of n
national Jewish home." said Mr. Cohen
today. "Its work now is the develop
ment of Palestine and the bringing
there of Jewish immigrants from east
ern Europe. This development will be
largely agricultural,
"Palestine now has a population of
700.000. In the time of David it had
2,000,000.
Not Socialistic Experiment
"It can renlly support two or three
times 700.000 and pnssiblv four or five
limes that number, through the intro
duction of the best methods of agri
culture. Jews in Russia. Pnlnnd and
Kumnuiu would be glad to emigrate.
"The plans of the Zionists are that
we shall work with the builds rather
than with the brain, as the Jews have
been doing for the most part iu other
portions of the world. It will be an
interesting social experiment. It will
not be Sodalistic, but I think It may be
called social."
"Amerira. I think," added Mr.
Cohen, "will hnve to supply most of
the money until the uevv state gets
going, while some of the expenditures
will be productive, owners will be un
productive." The Turkish trenty is now what is
officially called practicolly finished. The
Turkish plenipotentiaries, after teceiv
ing it in Paris obout May 10, will have
three weeks to consider It, The Allies
after receiving the Turkish reply will
take ii few days to examine it. Then
the Turks will be allowed u final ten
days in which to make up their minds
whether to sign the treaty or uot.

By (ho Associated Press

with all diligence to make curly adjust
ment. The board today continued its hear
ings on the wage demands of the
brotherhoods, Timothy Shea, vice
president of the Brotherhood of Loco
mativc Firemen, told the bourd that
additional pay for rnilrond workers
would not have the effect of increasing
the cost of living unless the excuse was
seized upon by profiteers to exploit the
public.
Charters of fifty-one Cleveland lodges
of Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen
have been revoked to duto for violating
the rules of the brotherhood by partici
pating in the unauthorized strike of
switchmen. W. G. Lee, president of

Intriguing Interest
You remember the crestfallen author whose
four introductory chapters had been blue-penciled
and a new start recommended. As re-written, the
story opened," Oh, Hell,' said the Duchess, who
heretofore had not joined in the conversation."
The mid-Victorian author might demand of hib
"patient reader" a dustry trudging through lengthy
introductions.
The modern advertising man cannot count on
such loyalty.
When next you scan a magazine, study the
advertising headlines and notice those that coax
you into reading farther.
When you advertise, seek for the man who can
coax people into reading the message about your
goods.
The fad of the moment is to call this,
"intriguing the interest."

Mr. Wilson had sought from th
iirst to establish ut Purls. That U pr.
cisely what has happened ut San Itemo.
It will lead in no distant future to tbt '

Then Mr. Wilson's policy will be '
much ncurcr realization than he him- '

vitality.
Events Forcing Conciliation
Events arc forcing a policy of con
ciliation toward Germnnj. Tlscy are
forcing agreement between Italy and
Jugo-Slaviu on lines reasonably agree
uble to Mr. Wilson.
And now they arc putting squarely
up to this country the kind of duty and
responsibility which Mr. Wilson saw
before he went to Puris. The strong
powers could uot refuse. For Mr.
Wilson, the Armenian maudate is a rate
in point. Here is u newly free country .
for which this nutiou hns profexed J
great sympathy. Left to herself, ,r- I
nieuia ennuot protect herself. Pome1!
one must assume the protectorate ever
Armenia or leave her to the mercy of
hostile tribes surrounding her. The
only reason the United States can offer
for refusing this duty is purely selfM.
It cau hardly lw avoided internationally.
And once you concede the Armenian
maudate jnu concede some of the argu
ments for the League of Nations.
Though, of course, you do not nws
sarilv concede the virtue of (he l'fsl
dent j position that the United States
must cuter the league ou exactly the
