With President Wilson, and conse-
quently the United States, represented
only by an observer" in the person of
Ambassador Johnson, the allied su-
preme council In session at San Reno
decided that Turkey should be sliced
up to a considerable extent, and that
Germany must observe the treaty
terms. As general propositions that
sounded all right, but when II came to
the necessary details there was Woe
full vagueness, so far as the corre-
spondents could learn. Take the case
of Turkey. The treaty with that coun-
try was substantially completed and
the Turkish representatives notified
to be In Paris on May 10 to accept II.
The "big three" decided that seven
big pieces Should be severed from the
sultaD's empire-Armenia, Mesopota-
and Azerbeidjan-bu the future of
these territories Is left for the future
to determine. No one of the nations
of Europe so far has signified will
ingness TO accept a mandate for any
part of Asia Minor. though several OF
them are determined to cling to ports
and zones of influence. The League Of
Nations declined TO take charge of Ar
menia because II has neither the
money nor the means of action. The
relied and which they still hope will
come TO their rescue. can do nothing at
present. When Great Britain, France
and Italy are able to act as a unit, or
when the league of nations is able TO
function. the destiny Of the small ma
tions freed from the Turk may be set
tied. Meanwhile Turkey is merely re-
quired TO rellnqulsh sovereignty over
them, as was the case with Austria
and the regions along the Adriatic.
The supreme council, II is said, will
ask Sweden and Norway to help the
Armenians 10 establish free state,
and from Amsterdam comes the news
that the Dutch would be willing to
take over that job. II necessary. Can
ada is willing to accept the mandate,

there. His territory will not extend
far into Europe, for Adrianople and
Kirk-Killse are given to Greece, as is
Gallipoli though II will be controlled
by allied forces. The only outlet 10
the Aegean for Bulgaria will be De
desgatch. which will be governed by
an international commission.
There are now In Turkey some 200,-
600 allied troops and Greece is in a
position TO send heavy relnforcements.
