PLEDGES ARE CITED INARABS PROTEST! Prince Feisal, in Behalf of Hussein, Seeks Greater Self-Government. - By the Associated Press. LONDON, February 8.—Prince Emir Feisal, former King of Syria, in be- half of his father, King Hussein of the Hedjaz, has protested to the Brit- ish government against the mandates for Mesopotamia and Palestine, con- tending that they are not in accord- ance with the pledges given to Hus- sein by the British. The Arabs, he adds, do not object to help from Great Britain, and de- sire the continuance of the alliance existing during the war. He sug- Zests ~that the great expenditure Great Britain s making mights be saved “by helping the Arabs to form a government of their own under British advisers for territories in ques- tion."” -LONDON, February 8 (Jewish Tele- graphic Agency).—Emir Feisal, the most prominent leader of the Arabs, uttered a warning to the world today, and particularly to those interested in the near east, that there will be no peace in the near east until the Arab aspirations are fully realized. Of the present situation in Palestine he said: “The Arabic world is in a state of dissatisfaction and embitterment. Not one of the Arab aspirations, not one of the pledges made to the Arabs in Palestine, has up to the present been redeemed. “Two years ago I said to the Zionist leader, Dr. Welzmann: ‘Only if the Arab claims are fulfilled will quiet and order reign in the east and peace and harmony prevail between the Jews and the Arabs.’ “What I agreed upon with Dr. Wize- mann was that the Arab and the Jew should have equal rights in Palestine; that a Palestinian nationality should be established, granting the Jew and the Arab the same standing. We Arebs have always lived in peace with You. We have never deptived you of Your rights. What we, therefore, ask of you is: ‘Do not demand dominance todsy when you are ogly a casual in Palestine’ * McMILLAN COMPLETING PLANS FOR ARCTIC TRIP Will Sail About July 1 to Cir- cumnavigate Baffin Land in the Bowdoin, Now Building.

PEKING, February 8.—Looti b; robbers and levies by soldiers nafid d the distress of famine-ridden people of southern Chihli, says a report by a missionary engaged in famine re- lief work at Weihsien, near the Ho- nan border. The troops with their demands for “contributions” of grain, fodder and clothing are said to be worse affiiction tham the robbers. ‘The latter are descrfbed as emulating Robin Hood in some respects in a recent raid at Fang Chia Ying, eight miles from Weihsien, where the homes of the wealthy were invaded. “As the robbers went from house to house, stores of grain were opened up, chests of clothing broken open and the poor were dressed and fed beyond the style even of better days. Copper coins and small cash were heaped up in the streets and bartered at considerable discount for silver dollara. for, like their distinguished prototype, the Chinese Robin Hoods are not impelled by purely philan- thropic impulse, but are after plun- der in the most transportable and con- vertible form. While frankly aiming at the lion's share, they showed sym- pathy for those weaker than them- selves.” e The soldiers, instead of checking operations of the robbers, are de- scribed as having an understanding with them and conniving at furnish- | e ] n L] [ | a ] [ ] [ | [ ] [ ] ] [ ] L] L] [ ] L] a [:] L] & [ ] [} | ] L] ] [ ] L] a [ ] ] [ ] L] L] [ ] [ ] I8 ] [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] | | a L] [ ] [ ] o ] ] u L] ] L] [ | [ ] ] L] [ ] [ ] [ ] ] a L] | s [ ] ] B [ ] [ ] L3 [ ] L] [ ] L] L) [ [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] o L] [ ] L] [ ] L] LJ | | ] [ ] [ ] [ | s 2z For . separate s skirts, dresses and children’s L] wear.
