MAY NOT TAKE UP
TURKEY PROTEST
UNTIL AT TER WAR
United States Wishes to Avoid
European EmbrogIio-Await
Reply of Porte.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 1.-THE
Washington government today await
ed the reply of the Turkish govern
ment to its protest against the abro-
cation of the capitulations by the
porte Ambassador Morgenthau, at
Constantinople, had been instructed
by Secretary Bryan to inform the
Turkish government that the United
States does not acquiesce in the re-
ported intention of Turkey to deprive
foreigners of their extra territorial
rights. Furthermore" says Secre-
tary Bryan, in a paraphrased state
ment of the eablegram to Mr.. Nor
genthau, this government does not
recognize that the Ottoman govern
ment has a right to abrogate the
capitulations. or that it's action to
this end, being unilateral, can have
any effect upon the rights and privf-
leges enjoyed under the capitula tory
conventions"
The ambassador was further in
structed to advise the porte that the
Washington government would re-
serve for the present discussion of
the grounds upon which it based its
refusal to acquiesee in the action of
Turkey, and also reserved the right
to make further representations in the
matter later on.
Its desire not to become entangled
in the intricate web of European d.
plomaey on which the possibility of
war between Turkey and other Eu-
ropean nations depends, is believed to
be the reason for the delay in taking
up the matter. Fearing that 1t might
be misunderstood, the Washington
government will postpone further dis
cussion of the subject until the war
is ended 1t is believed that mean
while the protest viii cause Turkey
to use extreme care in the treatment
accorded Americans in the event the
porte carries out its announced i'm
tention to do away with the Extra
territorial rights of foreigners, begin
ming October l.
The fiat declaration that the United
States did not recognize the right of
Turkey to abrogate its capitulations
is one which the other European pow
ers also have made in their protests
The peculiar coalitions under which
foreigners have been given special
privileges in Turkey for more than
four hundred years, and the numer-
GUS treaties under which the usage
has been established, will be the
basis for the American governments
contention that in this question GER
tain rights inhere to foreign govern
ments until such conditions shall
arise in the Ottoman empire which
will be complete guarantee for the
protection of foreigners and their in
terests

WILSON REPLIES
TO PO|NCARE ON
WAR COMPLAINT
Unpublished Text Said to Be
Similar to Message to
Kaiser.

WASHINGTON. Sept. 17.-Presi-
dent Wilson's answer to the message
of protest from President Poincare
of France, who charged the German
army with using dum-dum bullets,
had been prepared today and was
ready to be cabled.
While the text had not been given
out at the White House, it was I'M
derstood that Mr.. Wilson's reply fol-
lowed the lines of his answer to En-
peror William, who, in a message to
the President, accused the allies of
using dunn dunn bullets, and his adj
dress to the Belgian commission that
called on him to protest against al
legged atrocities by the Germans in
Belgium.
In both of these Mr.. Wilson made
it plain that the United States at
this time cannot pass judgment on or
take part in any controversies be-
tween the countries now at war. Set
Element of these matters, he said,
must await the termination of the
war, which he prayed might be very
soon.
The members of the commission
from the king of Belgium were form
ally greeted by Mr.. Wilson, who, af-
ter receiving from them a lengthy
written statement of outrages alleged
to have been committed by German
soldiers promised that it would have
my most attentive perusal and my
most thoughtful consideration" and
added:
1T would be unwise. it would be
premature for single government.
however fortunately separated from
the present struggle, it would be in
consistent with the neutral position
OF any nation which, like this, has
no part In the contest, to form or ex-
press a final judgment"
The President then sent his cable
gram to Emperor William, worded
similarly to his address to the Bel
gians.

ATHLETICS ASSURED
G. W. U. STUDENTS
Executive Committee of Board of
Trustees Favors Continuing Track
and Basketball Activities.

The continuance OF Basketball and
track activities at the George WASH
ington University now Is assured. al
though final action on the question
will not be taken until May 5.
1t was learned last night that the
executive committee OF the board of
trustees will make a Recommendation
TO this effect at the regular meeting
of the trustees on this date.
A meeting of the executive commit
tee was scheduled for yesterday after
noon. but because OF the lack of a
quorum. formal consideration of the
athletic situation at the Institution
was rendered impossible. Those mem
hers OF the committee who appeared.
however, agreed informally that they
would recommend the continuance OF
basketball and track activities at the
university.
This decision was based in turn on
the recommendation of Prof. Leslie
Cleveland McNemar. of the depart
ment of political science, who for the
past month has been engaged In al
investigation TO determine whether
there was sufficient sentiment among
the student body to justify the con-
tinuance of athletics. Prof. McNemar
reported that he deemed the senti-
ment suficiently strong to make pos
sfble the successful management OF
these two branches OF athletics during
the next collegiate year.
