fTCHCOCK SAYS f S. TO REFUSE ALLIED PROFFER Democratic Leader Declares Congress Against Accepting Armenian Mandate. CONSIDERED ‘LEFT OVER WASHINGTON. April 27. Rejection of the allied proposal that the United Stales j accept the mandate for Armenia was forecast today when Senator Hitchcock, administration spokesman, declared he did not believe the American people would sanction such a proceeding. Added to republican comment, which . declared the plan was an attempt to wish on us "the poorhouse of the world," Hitchcock's attitude was believed to In- j rllcate definitely that congress will never 1 gve Its consent to the project. Senators take the position that allied statesmen having stripped the near east of everything they want, now offer to the United States the mandate for Armenia. k This mandate would involve America in targe expenditures and possible war, it Beheld. f "If we accept the mandate, we should most certainly have Constantinople and control of the Dardanelles, but I see no mention of this in the offer of th© allies.’’ said Hitchcock. Ambassador Johnson, setting as an observer at the conference, has reported on the proceedings there. It was learned at the state department The department declined to dlscusa th* nature of the reports. Xo Intimation was given that the reported formal notes on Tuesday regarding Armenia have been received here. ITALIANS DISPLA Y BITTER FEELING SAN REMO, Italy, April 27.—Feeling is bitter In Italian circles today over the failure of the council of premiers to settle the Adriatic dispute at the session that closed here last night. It was the more intense in view of the concession granted Greece in the Smyrna district of Turkish Asia Minor. The council completed its reply to President Wilson's Armenian note, bnt announced the text would not be made public until it had been received & Washington. It was learned semi-officially the council virtually decided to assign Italy a large economic "zone of Influence" ’n Anatolia, bordering on the Greek zone, which surrounds Smyrna. The territory is rich in natural resources. Italy would also reserve three-fourths of the Haraclea Eregll, midway between Komieh and Adana coal fields. The final communique, issued on the council's last session, said: “The council approved the last clauses of the treaty of peace with Turkey and also the note to President Wilson, prepared by the British, regarding Armenia. “It approved the note to Germany and decided to invite German representatives to attend a council meeting to furnish exact inforamtion regarding execution of , the treaty of Versailles, also to prepare

Notice to Gas Consumers! While we are glad to he able to report an improvement in the outlook for gas coal, there is no improvement in the supplies on hand that can warrant a greater send-out of gas. We have liad advices that shipments of coal last week amounted to 8,000 tons, but we received only 5,200 tons and used 7,700 tons. If the railroads suffer uo new back-set. better supplies should be available by the- end of this week. As soon as conditions make possible larger production of gas, larger quantities will he released. Meanwhile, good pressures can be. # maintained only at theaa hours:— 5:30 to 7:30 A. M. 11 A. Mto 1P.M.5t07. P. M. At all other times the pressure will have to be too low to be depended upon; and when gas is used at such hours it should not be left unmatched, as it is likely to go out if many persons try to burn it at the same t ime.
