US. IN FAVOR
Of OPEN DOOR
TURKISH POLICY
Washington May Object to

Washington. Nov. 7,--Whi'e no

the state department against the
tripartitc agreement by France,
Great Britain and Italy defining
spheres of Influence in Turkey, Of
ficials nave stated that this did
not mean that no objection would
be made against any provision
viewed as Contravening an open
door policy in Turkey. The open
door principle was insisted upon by
the United States in the Turkish
settlement, it was said. when Presi-
dent Wilson was asked in March
by the French government for his
views on the tentative draft of the
Turkish treaty
The American note of March "a
said "it is the understanding of the
government of the United States
hat whatever territorial changes
ar arrangements will in no way
pluCe American citizens or corpo-
rations of any other country in a
less favorable situation than the
citizens or corporations of any
power party to this treaty"
Claim Principle Not Violated.
In some quarters it was contend
ed today that the second para
graph of Article II of the tripartte
agreement did violate this principle
ir excluding from the particular
spheres Of influence reserved for
each of the three powers the ma
tionals of the other two contract
ing parties. -t
The paragraph in question
reads:
The contracting powers under

support applications on behalf of
their citizens. for industrial or
commercial concessions in an area
in which the special interests of
one of the said powers are recog-
ni2ed, except in cases where such
power declines or is unable 20 take

Frankfort, ky1 Nov. 7.--GoVer-
nor Morrow has pardoncd Fess
