rope who have protested to the sub
lime porte against the abrogation Of
the capitulations under which aliens
have enjoyed certain territorial, judi
cial ana other privileges in Turkey.
Secretary Bryan made this action pub
lie today when he announced that
Ambassador MOrganthau ut Constan-
tinople had been ordered to register
the United States objection. The
following statement by Mr.. Bryan is a
paraphrasc Of the cablegram sent Mr..
Morganthau:
You will bring to the attention OF
the Ottoman government that the
government of the United States does
not acquiesce in the endeavor Of the
imperial government to set aside the
capitulatiOns. Furthern IRE, this gov
ernment does not recognize that the
Ottoman government has a right to
abrOgate the capitulations, or that it's
action to this end, being unilatcral,
can have any effect upon the rights
and privileges enjoyed by the capitula-
tory conventions. You will further
state that the United States reserves
for the present the discussion Of the
grounds upon which its refusal to
acquiesce in tho action Of the Otto
man government is based, and also re-
serves the right to make further rep
reservations in this matter at Il later
date"
Although the note to the Turkish
government did not explain the rea-
son for the postponement OF discus
sions. it generaly is understood the
! United States government does not
wish to become involved in tangled
European diplomacy OH which the
question of war between Turkey and
other European powers depends. The
Washington government will wait
until the war is over.
Meantime it was believelAthe Wig
orous phraseology Of the American
note would serve as u warning to Tur-
key to be c;rcumspect in her treat
ment Of American citizens.
