LEAGUE AND ARMENIA.
LONDON, April 26. The Council of the League of Nations has issued a memorandum explaining its attitude regarding Armenia. The memorandum says the League itself cannot take direct military and financial action. The best. solution, and the one which also the Armenians desire, is to find a mandatory Power; but such a Power is hard to find unless the Allies give military and financial assurances, and also assurances regarding the Armenians' access to the sea.
The League of Nations' Council urges the Supreme Council to state if it is willing to advance funds, pending the full assembly of the. League,-and also what guarantees are obtainable in regard to access to the sea, and the expulsion of Turkish troops from Armenia.
