A note has been presented to the

some Of the Powers--just which ones

against the decree abolishing the con-
ventions by which the treaty rights held
until recently by foreigners In the Otto
man Empire were accorded.
The texts Of the protests made by the
Ambassadors OF Great Britain. Russia,
France and italy are identical. The
protests take the position that the ca
pitulatory regime in Turkey Is the Nsue
OF international treaties. diplomatic
agreements and contractual acts OF
various kinds. Therefore, the Ambas-
sadors hold this regime can be modi-
fcd only through an understanding
with the contracting Powers
In the event that such an under

bassadors will be unable 10 recognize
