Allies to Reopen
Settlement of the
Turkish Problem,
Especial Dispatch to The Tribune)

NOpeCut HlSpUtcb 10 me 1f1Oune)
WASHINGTON, Aug. 23.-Develop-
ments in the war have made obsolete
the tentative plans for the solution of
the Turkish problem, and fresh cx-
changes of views are to take place be-
tween the Allied powers on the sub
ject.
1t was stated by diplomatic author
ity here to-day that the final adjust
ment of the question will be in con-
sonance with two fundamental prin-
ciples. first, the open door, and second,
the institution of police system
wherever the nationality inhabiting a
territory is not ready for self-govern-
ment.
Some aspects Of the problem appear
already to have been solved. The with
drawal of Russia from the war and the
unlkelihood of the powers being able
tc dispose Of Constantinople to the
Satisfaction of all, that city will be left
IN the hands of the Turks, but the Oar
danelles and Bosporous will be opened.
lnasmuch as Asia Minor is inhabited
principally by the Turks, it will remain
the major domain of the Sultan, ex-
cepting possibly the granting of a
strip of territory near Smyrna to the
Greeks
Palestine is to be created into an in
dependent state, probably under the
protection of Great Britain. 1t is in
tended by the Entente powers to per
petuate the independence of Arabia,
which exists at present under the name
of the Kingdom of the Hedjaz.
Because of the remoteness of Ar
menia and the loss by Russia of her
claims to protectorate over that coun-
try, it is believed that Armenia also
Wlll become independent, the more so
that It's inhabitants are now engaged in
resisting the advance of the Turks.
1t IS admitted that the most serious
difficulty arises over the question of
spheres of influence. which diplomats
pelleve necessarily must be created
england under any such arrangement
you'd ponce Mesopotamia and France
SYRIA, the latter being historically the
protector of Christians in SYRIA.
Italy entered the war after the dis
cusslons between the Entente powers
regarding the settlement of the Turk
ish question had taken place. but in
the renewal of the discussion she in
eVltably would take part owing to her
position in the Mediterranean.
diplomats assert that the Turkish
problem is not likely to be settled short
of years discussion, and that the So
luton sought must be in harmony with
the principles declared by the Allies in
this war. 1t is owing to Americas de-
sire not to become involved in it that
some international experts believe ac
counts for the failure of the United
States to declare war on Turkey.

On Selling Agents

Some Dealings With Middle

WASHINGTON, Aug. 24.-Under in
sistent urging by purchasing agents of
various government departments, the
Department Of Justice is relaxing
some what its demand that government
contracts contain q clause eliminatirl
all dealings with an agent or middle
man working on a commission basis.
The War and Navy departments and

will be allowed to make exceptions to
the rule in contracting for articles

agencies. it was said to-day
The War Department now is per-
mitted to buy textiles through selling
agencies in existence before the war.
A similar exemption is sought by the
Railroad Administration for purchas-
ing railroad supplies, many of which
are made by small manufacturers who
DO not maintain sales agents in Wash
lngton and other cities
Despite the contingent fee clause
now inserted in government contracts.
commission agents are reported still
busy in Washington. In hundreds of
cases, however, statesmen formerly
working on a commission basis have
arranged for payment of a fixed SAL
