Turks Are Told to Safeguard Rights
 Minor Peoples

Washington, May 8.-Provisions safeguarding the rights of minority populations make up large portion of the Turkish treaty of peace. A summary of the treaty will be hand ed to the Turkish delegation in Paris Tuesday, was received here today, Vi Fourteen articles of the treaty are devoted to protection of the Armen- ians, Greeks and other minority pop ulations which under the pact, will remain within the new boundaries of Turkey. In general, these articles follow the lines of the treaty of June 26, 1919, between the allied powers and Poland for protection of the Polish minority peoples.
 One of the things Turkey agrees to do under the treaty is to annul all conversions to Islam which have oc- cured between Nov. 1, 1914 and the coming into effect of the treaty. The nation of the sultan also undertakes to assist in the recovery of men, women and children of wholly or part ly nonmoslem percentage who have adopted the Islamic faith since Nov. l, 1914 and who are claimed by their families or communities.
 Turkish subjects of non- Turkish race, such as Armenians and Greeks who have been driven from their homes by fear of massacre or any other form of pressure during the war are to be permitted to return to their homes and assist in the recovery of their property and establishment of business.
 Racial minorities are given free dom to establish, manage and control charitable, religious and social insti- tutions, schools and other educational establishments, right previously ex- ercised exclusively by the Turkish government. Guarantees concerning the minority populations are lodged in the league of nations.
 Since President Wilson reply to the allied request for the fixation of the boundary of Armenia is not ex- pected to be ready in time for the inclusion of the settlement of the Armenian question in the treaty to be given the k, Turkish delegation Tuesday, diplomatic officials here be- lieve provision will be made by the supreme council for leaving open the Armenian question for some what later settlement.
