In a nutshell, opposition rests on the contentions: (1) That American {nterests in Turkey are not adequate- 1y protected by the treaty; (2) that American rights have been sacrificed | to obtain the old Chester oil and rail concessions, and (3) that America has ebandoned Armenian - Chr sympathizers Moslem tyranny.

By the Associated Press. HAMBURG, Germany, December 21.—Germany regards the agreement reached at the recent League of Na- tions Council at Geneva for the with- drawal of the Interallied Military Con- trol Commission as recognition that Germany has disarmed. Dr. Gustav Stresemann, foreign sec- retary in the ministry which resigned several days ago, and who had a prominent part in the Geneva discus- sions, made this statement yesterday, but added that it was incompatible with the spirit of the League of Na- tions for other countries to continue heavily armed while for Germany alone there were detailed armament restrictions. At future meetings, he declared, Germany ‘“will raise the problem of bringing the idea of uni- versal disarmament nearer realiza- tion.” Dr. Stresemann was speaking at a banquet given in his honor by the free state of Hamburg. As for the country’s foreign policy, he sald, it would not be affected by the resigna- tion of the bourgeols coalition cabinet of Chancellor Marx. “Germany's forelgn policy,” he went on, “is supported by an over- whelming majority of the German people. Even in circles first opposed or skeptical, the fundamental ideas underlying this policy have begun to take root.” The German leader emphasized that another great accomplishment of the Geneva session was the successful bringing together of the European statesmen, saying: “The method of an open exchange of views, for which the League of Na- tions offers such excellent ground, again has fully proved its worth. Post-war developments are only at their beginning; therefore it is pre- trusted with foreign policy should be brought face to face with each other. The cornerstone of foreign policy is realization of the solidarity of inter- ests, not only of European nations with each® other but also between the peoples of Europe and the other con- tinents.” R Cold storage products passing through the Suez Canal in the last year weighed nearly 250,000 tons.

TUESDAY, LANGLEY TOTELL HIS STORY IN BOOK Ex-Representative, Leaving Atlanta Prison, Hints Many Will Be Astonished. By the Associated Press | ATLANTA, December 21.—A book written for the most part in a Fed eral penitentiary by a former Con- sman that will “interest and prob- | ably astonish a good many people of the country” probably will appear next year over the name of John Wesley Langley. The 63-year-old man who resigned as Representative from the tenth | Kentucky congressional district to be-| gin a two-year sentence on conviction | of violating the national prohibition law walked jauntily from the Atlanta | prison yesterday, a free man. His warole was received from Washington in the morning. At 430 o'clock, prison doors closed on he re- appeared, greeted newspaper men with a smile and brief statement, al- ready prepared, and left for a train to Lexington, Ky., where today he planned to rejoin his wife.

Whatever opinions Langley has| ahout his conviction—he contended | in his trial against him to serve his wife in an pacity probably will wait for public expression in his book, if at all. The former Representative said he wrote considerably while in the prison, but he would not comment on the work. Prisoners who knew Langley | through his editorship of the prison paper, Good Words, and friends from “the ‘outside” were in the office of Warden John W. Snook when Lang- ley appeared for the formalities of | leave-taking. It was apparent that imprisonment had not injured his health. “T feel as good or better now than when T entered,” he said.

He asked to be excused from an in- terview, and handed to newspaper men a statement saying that while he probably would have something to| say and write later, his first thought was of “home, wife, children and friends.” Milton Lipschultz of Philadelphia. | found guilty with Langley of a con- |spiracy to divert and sell liquor stored in bonded warehouses, and given the same sentence, also received a parole yesterday and left the prison with Langley.

It inhabits the Philippine Islands, where it has been driven back into the remoter jungles. It's numbers are diminishing. Like all the bo- vine family, according to Dr. Wil- liam M.

There was one specimen at the Zoo here ahout 10 years ago which was an object of considerable interest because its temper was so easily aroused.

ANDREWS PREDICTS DRY LAW SUGGESS Declares Interstate Flow Will Be Stopped Soon—Problem Then Will Be Local. ' By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, December 21.—Within a few months the Government will have | stopped the operations of bootleg rings on a national or interstate scale, and when that time arrives, prohibi tion will become a local problem, with each community virtually able to determine how stringently it wants the Volstead act enforced, Lincoln C. Andrews, Federal prohibition enforce- ment chief told 300 manufacturers of malt beverages here vesterday. The Government, Andrews sald, has three immediate objectives: To stop the smuggling of liquor into the United States from abroad; to halt diversion of commercial alco- hol to the beverage trade; and to close old-time breweries still manufacturing real beer. Sees Way to Success. “We have not done all that yet” he said, “but we are doing it, and can see our way to a successful finish. “When these things are accom- plished, individual States and com- munitiés can tackle their local bootleg problem without finding that they have seized one tentacle of an octopu The {llicit liquor business will be s broken up that it can be dealt with on a local scale by local officials. “There will always be an effort to sell liquor. But we can stop it on an interstate or intercommunity scale by damming the known sources of sup- ply and annihilating them.” Assists Self-Government. As Andrews construes the law, Congress never intended the National prohibition unit to do more than dry A Life-Time Christmas Gift A Cafritz “Life-time” Home Just stop and think what this will ‘mean to ydurself and the family.

Now those who want the law enforced to prevent sale of liquor are returning to self-govern- ment after having said, when the Vol stead act was passed: ‘Now the Fed- eral Government will take the problem off our hands.’ And I am preaching to these people that after we have done our full part in National prohibi- tion enforcement we shall have made local enforcement possible and shall have enabled every community which wants prohibition to deal easily and nfrecuvely with \l()Lx\lnns of the law.’ MEXICO STAND DEFENDED.
