AMERICA WANTS
TURK EXPELLED
Presidents Note To Allies On The
Subject Is Made
Public.
FOR OPEN DOOR POLICY
Stress Is Laid On Protection of Amen
lean Interests as Well as Those
of Other Countries In Final
Solution.

Washington. Expression of Presi-
dent Wilson's opinion that the often
repeated intention Of the Allies that
"the anomaly of the Turks in Europe
should cease" ought to be carried out
in framing the Turkish treaty charac-
terized the American rejoiner to the
recent Allied note transmitting infor-
nation as to the status of treaty nego-
tiations
While the strength of arguments for
retention of the Turks in CONSTANT
nople was recognized, the note said
the American government believes
that the arguments against it are far
stronger and contain certain impera-
tive elements which it would not seem
possible to ignore" The American re-
joiner was handed to the French am
bassador here on March "a for trans
mission to Premier Millerand and is
made public by the State department
on advices that it had been delivered.
Representation Not Advisable.
President Wilson, it says, "does not
deem it advisable in the present cir
cumstances that the United States
should be represented at the confer.
ences, as suggested by the Allied COM
munication. He feels, however, it was
added, that as this government is vi
tally interested in the future peace of
the world it should frankly express it's
views on the proposed solutions of the
different questions connected with the
Turkish treaty"
Comment on some of the territorial
phases and on the whole economic pro-
gram of the proposals as to the treaty
was deferred pending more complete
information as to the objects sought.
The note takes occasion to say, how
ever that it is the understanding of
the government of the United States
that whatever territorial changes may
be made in the former Ottoman en-
pire, such changes or arrangements
will in no way place American citi-
cents or corporations or the citizens
or corporations of any other country
in less favorable situation than the
citizens or corporations of any power
party to this treaty"
The American expression "notes
with pleasure that provision is made
for Russian representation on the in
ternational council which it proposed
shall be established for the govern.
ment of Constantinople and the
straits" In this connection it adds,
"This government is convinced that
no arrangement that is now made con.
corning the government and control of
Constantinople and the straits can
have any element of permanency un-
less the vital interests of Russia in
those problems are carefully provided
for and protected and unless it is un-
derstood that Russia, when it has a
government recognized by the civil
fzed world, may assert its right to be
heard in regard to the decisions now
made"

GENERAL STRIKE IN DENMARK
Threatened AS Result of Cabinet
Oustinq BY King.

Ousting BY King.
Copenhagen.-The Trades Union
Federation has postponed the decision
whether to call a general strike
The Social Democratic parliament
tary group has issued a manifesto pro-
testing against the kings dismissal of
the cabinet and summoning the people
at the elections to overthrow his "re-
dictionary designs" The manifesto
says:
Our watchword is drastic democra-
tization of our constitutional republic
and one-chamber, with suffrage at
the age Of 81"
There were lively scenes in the
streets. Cries were raised of "revolu-,
tion," down with the king" long live
the Danish republic" These were
intermingled with counter cries for
the king.
The new cabinet which has just
been formed is headed by M. Liebe, an
advocate in the high court, who takes
the posts of premier and minister of
justice.
