Armenian Security Urged. The question of Armenis, one of the most familiar subjects on the agenda of the assembly of the league of na- tions, was taken up yesterday, the particular phase considered being a report on the resolution recently pro- posed asking the powers to insert in the eventual treaty of peace between the Greeks and the Turks a clause assuring a “national home” to the Armenians. Lord Robert Cecll, representing the TUnlon of South Africs, in explaining the report, said nothing could be done now “with the Kemalists in rebellion against the whole world,” but that the league must be ready to see that When the time came for a settlement the Armenjans be given a home en- tirely independent of Turkish rule. A Prince Dowleh of Persia, speak- ing on the resolution, said: “The first thing to do in favor of Armenia and the Armenians is to put an end to the war between the Greeks and the Turks.” Delegate Seferiades of Greece said the assembly’s “platonic declarations of sympathy with Armenia” were fol- lowed last year by more massacres. h “let it act, but indulge in no platonic resolutions. If more massacres occur the blood will stain this assembly itself.” TROTSKY SCORES RUMANIAN POLICY Indulges Criticism While Pa- cific Negotiations With Soviet Are Pending. BY CONSTANTINE BROWN.
