LEAGUE SOCIETIES BACK U. 5. ON HATT Express Satisfaction Troops Will Be Withdrawn as Soon - as Possible. FIERY PROTEST MADE Delegate From Island Claims Coun- try Was Wronged by Ameri- can Occupation. By the Assoviated LYONS, July the congr of the International Federation of League of Nations Sociedes last night was to listen to two dramatic addresses concerning the American occupation of Haiti— one a moving appeal for “justice and liberation,” by Dantes Bellegarde, the Haitian leader and orator, and the other, a strong defense of American action, by C. A. Duniway, head of the American delegation. Both addresses were applauded, but received an ovation which al minutes, punctuated by v The debate oc- after M. Bellegarde and Dr. Duniway had reached an accord on a resolution concerning H which as subsequently adopted unanimous- by the congre Supports U The resolution declares that the international federation, considering the occupation of the Republic of Haiti by forces of the United States, and having heard sympathetically the representation of the H of Natior of ‘the p ague on the national aspirations . expresses its satisfact fact that the Secretary State of the United States has declared the intention of the government to effect withdrawal from Haiti as soon as possible. M. Bellegarde pictured Haiti as a civilized country, with poets and philosophers, docto nd_ scientists, and as a kind of intellectual province of France. It had achieved its in- dependence by force of arms, and yet, against _all international law, the Uhnited States on the pretext of seri- ous internal troubles had occupied Haitl with military forces. mits Some Disorders. ‘The aitian delegate admitted dis- orders, but argued that they did not Justify the throttling of Haiti's na- tional existence as an independent state any more than Mexican disor- ders would justify the occupation of Mexico. He demanded the restora- tion of the integral rights of the peo- ple, including legislative powers, which ed were suppressed by the U tes: the right to con- s. liberty of the press and education, the privilege of dis- posing freely of Haiti's destiny, and, above all, evacuation. He recounted league of nations a pleaded for justi African brethren how, before the sembly, be had for his South who were under the control of England, and how England had granted the i a. He concluded dramat Will the American peop. themselves inferior to the and refuse us justice?’ Protests Accusations. Dr. Duniway, in replying, said he regretted that the agreement reached on the resolution had not prevented M. Bellegarde 'from speaking anew, and declared he felt called upon to protest against the Haitlan's accusa- tions. Referring to the civil war, he recall- ed how the United States had freed millions of the black race, and gave a summary of America's humanitarian acts in the achievement of liberty and happiness for other peoples. He wish- ed to protest in the name of the American pegple that there was not the slightest unjust pressure on the Haitian population, or any desire to deny them liberty. He characterized the American occupation xs really de- signed to secure real justice and lib- erty for Haitl. This had proved true in Santo Domingo, where Ameriea put troops to restore law and order and then withdrew them. Are Serving Haitl. “Santo Domingo is free,” he went on, “and Haliti will be free when she has satisfled the conditions and shows that she is capable of self-govern- ment. Our attitude Is\one of benevo- lent serving, not our own cause, but aiti.” A violent discussion marked the consideration of resolutions relative to Armenia. The assembly voted that the Armenian question was still far from settled. and to keep the ques- tion on the federated agenda until Jjustice and the ights of man had been secured for the Armenian people. The federation urged the world to continue indispensable relief Mmeas- ures for the refugees and the hun- dreds of thousands of orphans in the near east. When a Greek delegate had urged Turkey to show mmodera- tion toward the Armenians and a Turkish delegate had replied, cries of “and Smyrna" arose from several parts of the auditorium. The Turk thereupon demanded the appointment of a special commission from neutral states to investigate the entire Turco-Greek and ~Armenian ques- tions, including the Smyrna affair. No_action was taken on this. China won a signal victory at the Congress by obtalning the passage of a resolution favoring the allocation to China of a regular seat in the council of the league of nations though as a non-permanent mem- ber. This was voted as being in consonance with the league of na- tions resolution to recognize all ethnical groups and various civiliza- tions in the distribution of seats on the council. The meefing place of the next Con- gress has not been fixed, but the Ger- man delegation wants Berlin to be selected. — Rev. A. W. Crawford Dies. GREENSBORO, N. C., July 3.—Rev. A. W.

By the Assoclated Pross. NEW YORK, July 3.—Ian Keith, motion picture actor, has telegraphed from Hollywood a denial of the charges made by his actress wife, Blanche Yurka, in her counter suit for separation, that he abandoned her because of infatuation for Mar- jorie Rambeau, also an. actress. Declaring that his marriage’ was the result of Miss Yurka's solicitation, Keith denied his wife's charges that he “openly made love" to Miss Ram- beau. Miss Yurka had charged him with openly showing his affection for Miss Rambeau at a party in New York while Keith was appearing with Miss Rambeau in “As You Like It Keith stated in his telegram that the party was suggested by his wife, and that at the party he “treated Miss Rambeau only with the respect which her position in the theater de- manded.” Keith said he was twenty- three and Miss Yurka at least thirty- nine when they were married. Replying to his wife's allegations that he had photographs of Miss Rambeau in his dressing room, Keith admitted that he had her photographs there along with photographs of other actresses and actors, as ig cys- tomary among the theatrical pfo- fession. Arguments on Miss Yurka’s appli- cation for $250 a week and $3,000 as counsel fees were heard in the su- preine court yesterday. Keith, in his tolegram, asserted that Miss Yurka had earned from $300 to $500 a week. Deaision on the application was re- served. i The death of Miss Marie Corelli is a reminder that many women who at- tained to high fame never married. Some of the famous names that can be recalled offhand in this connection are those of the great Queen Eliza- beth, Hannah More, Jane Austen, Maria Edgeworth, Emily Bronte, Dorothy Wordsworth and Mary Lamb.

By the Ansociated Press. NEW YORK, July 3.—The convic- tion of William H. Anderson, former state superintendent of the Anti- Saloon League, who is serving one to two years at Sing Sing prison for| = third-degree forgery, was unanimous- ly affirmed yesterday by the appelate division of the supreme court. Justice John V. McAvoy, in an opin- ion in which Justices Clarke, Dowling, Merrell and Kinch concurred, said: “The record discloses a trial where- in scrupuluous regard was had for the rights of the defendant in the ad- mission and exclusion of evidence and in the full, clear and painstaking charge of the learned trial court.” Referring to the contention of for- mer Gov. Whitman, Anderson’s coun- sel, that the forgery was harmless, the court said: ~ “This_entry (the false notation in the books of the league) was doubt- less calculated to render the books capable of showing by that Phillips (the league's solicitor of funds), did not receive his full carnings. It is vain to protest that it hurt nobody, because, whether it did or not, it was a false entry.” 3 October ade. reireirelradoadsodeeniondsodoedoedrisadrodrodeaadsodeefeiaiiodond .Room 206 | % legal proof |* ternational law and peace problems should keep their heads cool.
