Washington, Jan. sa Representa- tive Roddenbery of Georgia. on the floor of the house today, made another hot attack upon interInarriage of ne- groes and- whites. He discussed the marriage of George F. Thompson of Chicago. AZ year old negro. and Helen E. Hanson. a 15 year old white girl, at Niles. Mich, several weeks ago.
 MT. Roddenbery declared that the marriage ceremony was performed by Charles Ager, a minister of the gos- pel-a white minister at that-who ought to be tarred and feathered and put into exile
 The southern congressman waved about his head a copy of the mar riage certificate of the couple and quoted from newspaper reports of the marriage, which reeounted revoIting details.

Turks Make Concessions Which Closely Approximate De
 mands of Bugaria-Ask to Retain Only That Part of Adrianople Where Holy Shrines Are Situated-Also Will Leave Disposition of the Aegean Islands to Powers

to the Joint note of the powers, the Young Turkish government asserts it. self boldly. Apart from prosposals to divide Adrianople and a plea for the new government takes advantage of the occasion to press for relief rom the letters of tariff and foreigners ex- tra territorial rights, under which the Turks have long chafed.
 .eThe Ottoman government does not hesitate to recognize that the conclu- sion of peace corresponds with the hopes and interest of all,' says the note, ttand that it is desirable to put an end as soon as possible to a strug- gle which it in no way provoked.
 ",rhe imperial government has al- ready given undeniab1e proofs of g conciliatory spirit by consenting to i'm mediate sacrifices. Adrianople being an essentially Mussu1man town ana the second capital in Turkey, and therefore indissoluubly bound up with the em- pire the mere rumor of it's cesslon pro- voked a sentiment of reproduction throughout the country and aroused such excitement as to bring about the
 resignation of the last cabinet. esThe Turkish government is viking. as a final proof of it's pacific dispos1- ton, to place itself in the hands oi the powers regarding that part of Adrianople situated on the right bank of the Maritza river.

 Regarding the Aegean Islands, the argument is set forth that those near est the Dardane1les are indispensable to the defense of the csapital, While the others, forming an integral part of Asia Minor, are no less 1ndlspensa- ble to the security of the AsiatIc pos sessions.

 Turkey offers to abide by the de- cision of the powers regarding the status of the islands occupied by the allies if they have regard for the lore going considerations and the integrity of the Dardanelles. which the note cIeverly contends is question or the highest importance in Europe. In con clusion the note says:
