tExPLAtNS TURKEYS ACTION IN
ADVOCATING ALL TREATIES

Washington, Sept. 1.-THE Turkish
ambassador, A. Rustem Beys explained
in detail to Secretary Bryan today the
meaning of Turkeys abrogation OF all
conventions and capitulations restrict
ing the sovereignty Of The Porte.
The ambassador made it clear that
American missions and schools would
continue to be protected by Ottoman
law, although American citizens would
lose their extra territorial rights in
civil and judicial cases. The capitu-
lations which had been abrogated, he
said. would not affect the existence Of
the missions which had been recog-
nized previously by Turkish law. The
ambassador said he would issue
statement later interpreting Turkeys
action.
AS Turkeys notification was Of a
general character. without specifying
particular treaties, officials had not
been sure Of the extent Of the action.
They were inclined to believe, how
ever. that as the special privileges
granted by Turkey were woven in most
all of her agreements. it's effect would
be to break off Turkeys treaty rela-
tions with the entire world. That view
was confirmed in Turkeys notification
that the Ottoman government had
adopted "as the basis Of it's relations
with other powers the general princi-
pies Of international law" Oficials
here believe the effect Of Turkeys ac-
ton will be as follows:
Americans and other foreigners who
have had the right of trial in civil
and criminal cases by their own diplo-
matte and consular courts, now will
be subject entirely to Ottoman law.
Turkey will be able to increase or
reduce her custom duties without the
consent Of the powers.
Americans and other foreigners who
hither have been exempt from the
payment Of professional taxes can be
required TO pay the same.

During the day there had been pub
