Wilson Agrees
To fee Mediator
For Armenians
Proposal From L'eague of Na
tions to End Trouble by
Mediation Favored by
i President.
t'liit'Hffo Tribune-Omaha Bee Xeaned Wire.
Washington, Dec. 1. President
Wilson has accepted the request of
the council'of the league of nations
to proffer mediation to end "the hor
rors of; Armenia."
The president, in replying, to the
telegram, from M. . Paul Hymans,
president of the .council of ' the
league, urging him to use his good
offices in the struggle between, the'
Armenians and the -Turkish nation
alists, said he .would:. proposehis
personal mediation' through- :some
one he might designate' to 'unde
take the task. -"- - ;f '''
President Wilson pointed out in
his reply that he had lib authority
to employ the military forces of the
United States in any project of relief
for Armenia; that he could offer no fi
nancial relief without Authority of
congress, which is not now in session
and that he could not forecast what
congress might do. He pointed out
that the senate of the United States
had declined to accept a mandate
for Armenia, but that "this country
has repeatedly declared its solicitude
for the fate and welfare of the Ar
menian people, and that "he was will
ing and anxious to do whatever he
could to relieve the tragic situation
in the oppressed country.
After calling attention to his lim
itations in the matter, 4he president
said:
"I am willing, however, upon as
surances of the moral and diplomatic
support of the principal powers, and
m a spirit ot sympathetic response
to the request of t'ie council of the
league of nations, to use my good
offices and to proffer my personal
mediation through a representative
whom I may designate, to end the
hostilities now being waged against
the Armenian people,- and to bring
peace and accord to the contending
parties, relying upon the council of
the league of nations to- suggest to
me the avenues through which my
proffer should be conveyed, and the
parties to whom it should be adr
dressed."
-The president's proposal, which
went forward to President Hymans
today, calls for reply befcre any
thing further can be done by Mr.
Wilson.
Ranks of Unemployed
.Growing in Chicago
t'hlcar Tribune-Omaha Bee Leaned Wire.
Chicago, Dec. 1. Unemployment
is increasing in Chicago, but the
number of idle persons is no greater
than it was at the corresponding
period id 1914, according to a survey
of-the Federal Reserve bank.
In the face of the thousands of
idle men, stands out the fact that
more than $150,000,000 in building
projects are being held ap .-because of
the high cost of materials, ihe high
cost of labor and the endless juris
dictional disputes that make the
erection of any building a haaHous
enterprise.

Business Outlook
Is Good, Declares
Wholesaler Here
No Excuse for Low Spirits,
Avers .M. E. Smith & Co.
Official Better Labor
Conditions Coming.
Your dollar will buy more
cheer up!
For the last three years almost
everyone has been hoping for lower
prices. V
'Now that they ha.ve come, there is
no reason for not being glad.
The best minds of the nation
worked for two years to prevent
overinflation of currency and credit
and now that the nation, approaches
something like sane conditions there
is -no excuse for low spirits.
That Ss the way one of the leading
business men of Omaha, C W. Russell-,
vice president of M. E. Smith
& Co., dealers in wholesale dry
goods and garment manufacturers,
looks at the present condition.
Business Is Good.
"Everybody ought to be glad that
we are so nearly across the stream,"
said Mr. Russell yesterday. "It looks
like we have about touched the shore
on the other side. I believe we are
very rapidly approaching the time of
easier money and better labor condi
tions, with more production per cap
ita. Speculative demand has disap
peared, overexpansion has gone and
the end of the stringency is in sight.
"To get down to brass tacks,
wherever prices have been reduced
in accordance with the break in the
primary markets, business is good.
My best information on this comes
from our retail customers scattered
throughout the west. Where busi
ness is poor, it is found that the mer
chants have not reconciled them
selves to taking a loss and followed
the price recessions. All the adver
tising in the world will not help
move goods that have not been
marked on the new scale. ,
Going to Normal.
"American business will come out
of this readjustment with its capital
unimpaired and nothing sacrificed
except great temporary profits. ThisV
is a great big, rich country, witn
the people industrious, and after all
thrifty. They're educated in busi
ness an will meet with courage
the nev requirements. There is no
suffering' here except mental.
"It's' just a case ofMhe tempera
ture going down to normal and the
fevered pulse beating more regular
ly. The nation is leaving off its
joy-ride anL settling down to busi
ness. The dollar now has greater
purchasing power than for a long
time.
Prices Have Dropped.
"No particular stress need be felt
in getting ourselves adjusted to this.
The sober, sensible way to look at
it is that if a dollar will buy more.
we simply cannot expect such high
prices for the things we have to sell.
"I feel absolutely sure that com
modities in this avalanche of price
declines have , gone in some cases
too low, below the cost of produc
tion, and when the normal demand,
which always follows a period of
this kind sets in, some things will
go up."
Farmer Hard Hit.
Mr. Russell observed that the
farmer is harder hit than men in
other lines, but that even in his case
the trouble, was only over-abundance,
which is far from being as
hard a condition as a shortage.
"While America has a surplus,
Eurte is destitute," he said. "People
who are not familiar with the mis-
rv abroad are not reallv capable ot
understanding their own good fortune.-
The greatest failure of Amer
ican business men is that they nave
not met this terrible condition Dy
extending credit to Europe to buy
our surplus and tide itself through
the winter."
