$$, France June 3 Despite Al
leged Jail Sentence
DOUBTS VERDICT IN SYRIA
!.

T
I Br the Associated Press
Paris, May 20. the French foreign
flee has no knowledge of the reported
eanvlctlen of Charles It. Crane, former
merlcftti Minister te China, by
reneh military court In Damascus, en
charge of Inciting n riot, as reported
tn prest dispatcher. It was stated today.
Troubles In Syria were provoked by
"Injudicious tnlk ' by Mr. Crane,
foreign office officials said, 'but up te
the present tne'ncnt they had no In
formation regarding any condemnation.
Mr. Crane, who Is new In Paris, said
he was confident the report of his con
viction was nn error. He plans te sail
t New Yerk en June 3. In explaining
his visit te Syria Mr. Crane said:
"My reception by the people of
Damascus was entirely friendly. They
asked why their wishes, made known
te the committee en mandate In Tur
key three jcars age. never hnd been
heard from. They said that since that
time, en account of severe French cen
sorship, they had net been able te ninke
their voice heard by the outside world.
"Whatever demonstration they made
was te make me understand that their
feelings agalnt the French mnmlate
, were stronger than ever. They hoped I
could get their menage out.
"There was no rioting, but such dem dem dem
onstratiens were of daily occurrence en
the streets of Caire. The Uritlsh did
net lese their heads. The French chief
of police, however, a native who has
been terrorizing Damascus ever since
the French occupied it. made capital
out of such demonstrations and used
machine guns en unarmed people, and
some of the leading men of Damascus
were sent te long terms In prison with
out trial.
Ail tnese tnciaenis were xereseen
and indicated in the report en man
dates, and great injustice has been done
both te the Syrians and te censerva-
tive French people, m. well as te our
own missionaries and educators, by the
suppression of that report by our State
Department.
"I myself have had no disagreeable
experiences with French officials either
In Damascus or here."
"8ince mv return te Paris three days
age," said Mr. Crane, "I have been
very cordially received by many mem
bers of the French Senate and ethers
, high In the Government, and there is net
the slightest indication that anv action
has been taken or is contemplated
against me. However, it would net
surprise me if the military authorities
of Syria were much aroused ever the
popularity of the United States
throughout Syria, and they might show
resentment by military action against I
me. I visited Syria for tnrce days dur
ing the first week In April for the pur--'lpese
of observing whnt had taken place
Since I was sent there n 1010 by Pres
ident Wilsen te report en the situation.
I confirmed the conclusions which were
contained in my report te President
Wilsen. ,
"As I was leaving Damascus thou
sands of Syrians gathered 'around the
car. Bang their national anthem and
cheered the United States. The nest
day there were many arrests, but it Is
net true the French mllltnry authorities
asked me te leave the country or threat
ened te arrest me.
"T was in Srrln ttnlitlr n n nrirnti
J' k cltfsen. and I de net represent the
iSr 'United States Government or American
missionary Interests in byrla. I am
deeply interested in the outcome of the
Syrian question. American mlsienary
Interests have invested $0,000,000 in
Schools and in ether was in Syria, and
tn this extent America is concern with
tae problem.
"i told the Sjrlan officials and ethers
that I was there as a privnte American
..Citizen and had no commission from the
American Government." Mr. Crane
thought the reported sentence, if true,
would net apply in Trance and said he
was planning te 'sail for New Yerk
en the Aqultanla June 3.
In an earlier interview Mr. Crane
said he wns "making an effort te de
something" regarding the Sjrian situ
ation and that he Intended "working
along the same lines in Londen."
