Distinct Lines of Cleavage
Seem to Be Making Ap
pearance as Small Conn
tries Line Up.
Geneva, Nov?25. (By The Asso
ciated I'ress.) No meeting of the
assembly of the league of nations was
held today in order to give the mem
bers full time for committee work,
and iti possible there will be no
session tomorrow. While some of
the committees are reported to be
progressing with unexpected speed,
their decisions are thus far mostly
for sure and slow solutions.
Committee meetings, however,
again featured today's session of the
assembly of the league of nations,
i Several of these bodies, charged with
; examination of projects laid before
the assembly and the 'prep"1'011
reports, are believed to have nearly
completed work, it is expected that
debate 'in their conclusions may be
gin in a few days.
' Lines Arc Drawn.
Distinct lines of cleavage seem to
be making their appearance at the
meeting of the assmbly, delegates
from the smaller nations insisting
that the countries they represent
should play an influential role in the
work of the assembly and the coun
cil of th.e league.
Scandinavian and South American
representatives are prominent in the
conversations occurring at sessions
of the assembly and it is expected
their leaders are planning to lake
part in the debates which will be
girt soon. v
Demand Four Places.
Honori'o Puyrredon. foreign min
ister of Argentina, and one of that
nation's representatives, is one of
- ti.. teaders in demanding that
small..." nations should elect four
members ti the council of, the
league, and he seems to have, the
support of a number of influential
delegations. Sweden, Norway and
Denmark evidently purpose to take
to the floor of the assembly and
fight for amendments to the cove
nant of the league. In addition,
several nationsthave taken decided
views regarding the economic block
ade, the international court and man
dates. The proceedings of the as
sembly, which are at present really
being carried on by the commit
tees, may be considered as merely
preliminary to its real work, which
will begin when these committees
submit reports' and debate begins.

league. The president is now placed
in the position of objecting to the
narrowness of the provisions -of the
covenant he champions.
Under the covenant provision 4he
United States, if not a member of
the league, might be deprived of
equal treatment, even in the North
Pacific islands, which Mr. Wilson
surrendered to a Japanese mandate
in the face of the navy general
board s warning of the folly of such
a course from the viewpoint of 'na
tional defense. , "
Objects to Terms,
Mr. Colby also objects to the
British contention that the terms of
mandate can properly be discussed
only in the league council by the
signatories of the covenant. The
United States being outside the
league, thus would have no vote in
determining the governmental status
of inventories taken from the cen
tral powers in a war, to the success
of, which America largely , contri
buted. The secretary of state argues that
mandate powers accrue not from
membership in the league, but from
participation i the war on the an
tral mpires and asserts that the
United States cannot concede the
exclusion of itself or any other as
sociated nation from discussion of
the "mandate terms.
It happens,' however, that the Wif-
son covenant itself provides that
"the degree of authority,' control or
administration Ao be exercised by
the mandatory shall, if not previous
ly agreed upon by the members of
.the league, be explicitly defined in
each case by the , council." The
British government is unable to per
ceive how any nation outside of the
league gets a voice in the matter un
der the ferms of this provision. Eng
land stands oat on the Wilson cove
nant, while Mr. Wilson is compelled
to appeal from the covenant to safe
guard the rights o! the United
States.

Here's why the army officials""have
joined postoffice and secret service
operatives in the nation-wide search
for Keith Collins, 1739 Seventh ave
nue, Council Bluffs.
In his expensive photographs
Keith is shown . wearing captain's
bars and pilot's wings.
On his record card of application
for victory medal at the office of
Col. W. A. Cavenauih. Omaha re
cruiting officer, Keith is numbered
like any other buck private and is
listed as a private with the head
quarters of the First provost squad
ron at Carlstrom field, Florida.
Keith's army serial number was
500136.
There's nothing on the card to
indicate his promotion to captain or
his qualification as a flyer for Uncle
Sam. -
The posfcffice officials want him
as the accused dYiver of he "loot

. London, Nor. 25. There is neith
er a swerving toward military dicta
torship r.or a swing toward revelu
tion in Italythe Italian premier,
Signor,Giolitti, declares in an inter
view With a correspondent of the
Manchester Guardian.
There is a widespread confidence
timong the people of Jtaly, the writer
declares, that Giolitti. is succeeding
and will continue to succeed in his
efforts at bringing the country safely
through to recovery.
"I read that Italy is on the verge
of a .military dictatorship," the pre
mier is quoted as saying. "You can
be sure that such a danger is ab
surd. In 1898 Italy made her brief
and disastrous experience in mili
tary dictatorship, which served to
strengthen and rejuvenate the liberal
policy to which I consecrated my
life and work ill five cabinets. I
am faithful to Parliamentary pre
rogatives, and during 20 years'
leadership I think I have demon
strated that the development of the
country is only possible through
civil liberty.
"Some violent remains of war
psychology are scattered over Eur
ope, and will not disappear very
soon. But Italy, even less tnan
other countries, believes in any milj
tarist policy, the desire for which is
only in the dreams of a solitary
literary man. .
"The country and the government
can rely on the absolute discipline
of the army.
- "Your paper, discussing our recent
troubles among the metal workers,
has seen clearly that there is no rev
olution.' Our working classes are
gradually securing their economic
rights. I do not fear them. . I sup
port them, and the policy of the
present cabinet remains my former
one, without the least "-eactionary
tendency."

London. Nov. 25. I have learned
from a most reliable source that
suggestionsw hich French Premier
Leygues will submit to the Britisn
government on the Greek and Turk
ish questions during the conserva
tions, which will probably begin
Sunday.
Greece, being no longer trusted
with the custody of allied interests
in the eastern Mediterranean, France
will suggest the return to the old
France-British policy of the Cri
mean war through direct collabora
tion with restored Turkey, Mustapha
Kemal rasha being tne new iurkisn
leader.
Without official cancellation of
the Turkish! treaty, Kemal would be
approached at once under some pre
text and probably by the league of
nations on the Armenian question.
He would be told that, subjecf to
his repudiation of his pan-Islamic
aims and co-operation with the bol
sevists, and subject to his promise
to re-cstablif h the did Turkish form
of government with France-British
financial advisors, the entente or
at least France would not object to
his taking control of Constantinople
and reconquoring' certain parts pf
prewar Turkey, as Smyrna and
Adrinople, which was handed over
to Greece bv the treaty or Secres.
No help v Id be given to Greece
to. retain these occupations and
neither would the occupation of Con
stantinonle by the Kenialists be ap
proved immediately, but recognition
of the -new de facto government
would come later.
" The Armenian-Cilician question
could be reached on -the following
ffasis: Armenia Would keep its self
government with Franco-British ad
visers, its military neutrality being
guaranteed bv Turkey, France would
evacuate Cilicia, compensation for
this beiig an extensive French pro
tectorate Over all Christians in Asia

Memher of People's Party in
Reichstag Declares Ger
many's Financial Situation
Now Is Almost Hopeless.
Berlin, Nov. 25. Bitterness
marked a debate in the Reichstag
yesterday relative to the voting of
appropriations to carry out pro
visions of the Versailles treaty
Member of the chamber denounced
the. action of the allies in keeping
such a large force of men along the
Rhine, and, in particular, assailed
France for sending negro troops
into Germany.
Dr. Zapf, a member of the, Ger
man people's party, said Germany's
financial situation seemed hopeless.
He pointed out that interest charges
on the budget alone amounted to
12,500,000,000 marks and declared
the conduct of Frehch officers snd
their families in the Rhineland was
nrovokmir a orowine irritation.
Rudolph Drcitscheld, a leader of
the moderate independent league,
said the nation s burdens were not a
result of the "infamous conduct of
her enemies, but the sequel ot uer
many's pre-war policies.
"Germany's collapse," Jie' con
tinned, "was not due to vthe pa
cificists, but to the men who praised
war as the fountain of Vouth and
the bath of steel. I predict the time
will come when the present treaty
will be replaced by an instrument
dictated bv true justice. This will
be when the workers of France and
German v become sufficiently power
ful to put the Versailles treaty out
of commission."
Rev. Adolf Korell, a member of
the democratic party, charged the
entente nations with "unloading
troops indefinitely in the Rhineland,
asserting these soldiers were not
controlled either from Washington,
from London or Pans. '
-"One should not refer to Presi
dent Wilson's 14 points in scorn and
mockery, he said, ' t-ven in the
face of disappointment, we still have
faith in the ultimate victory of love."
Negro Held on Charge of j
Intent to Lommite Murder
Tesle Ccller ' netrb. was arrested
Wednesday night by Council Bluffs
police upon the charge of assault
with intent to commit murder. Co!
ler has been a fugitive from justice

negro, during an argument.
The negro is held at th city jail
pending preliminary hearing this
morning in police court He disap
peared immediately "after the stab
bing and police have been searching
for him for two months. "

French Premier to
Meet Lloyd Ceorge
Conference at London Will
Discuss Questions Arising
rom Greek Elections.
Frc
Paris, Nov. 25. Premier George
Leygues left for London this morn
ing at 9:45 o'clock. While in that
city he will confer with Premier
Lloyd George of Great Britain rela
tive to questions arising from the re
cent Greek election, the Russian sit
uation and problems relative to the
near east.
There are indications that the
meeting of the French and British
premiers may assume a more impor-
tant aspect than was contemplated
by their original plans. Former Pre
mier Venizelos of Greece is said by
the Matin to be planning to hurry
his trip northward from Italy to par
ticipate in the conversations in Lon
don and the same newspaper de
clares Premier Giolitti of Italy will
also take part.
An Athens dispatch states that
Premier Rhallis has declared that if
allied premiers hold a meeting a rep
resentative of the Greek government
would attend to explain the real sig
nificance of recent events in that
country. .

There is no secret process involved
in the making of de luxe margarin.
Neither is there any mechanical
equipment by which the desired
quality can be obtained.
The secret is experience plus ex
acting eare-the capacity for tak-(

Mr. Hoffman, the butter expert who
supervises every detail in the pro
duction of Troco, learned this secret
in 30 years of making and judging
butter and teaching butter-making.
He knows that this alone puts de
sired sweemesfand delicacy into such
dainty products as butter and Troco.
For Troco is simply butter churned
from coconut fat instead of buttef
fit It gets its flavor the same way.
Mr. Hoffman was famous for the
flavor of his butter. He puts this same
sweet, delicate flavor into Troco.
Troco it nutritious and digestible in
every respect Husky tropic races
live on coconuts.
Now, with the flavor perfected by
one of America's leading butter ex
perts,Troco ranks as the fancy brand
of nut margarin.
