 ferment in the Near East. but knows
 little about the decision, of the Paris

 Commercial interests are eagerly discussing, the possibility of liquor prohibition in Constantinople and trade conditions if the Straits are centralized. Many merchants believe that Co1stantinople would then be the trans shipment port for the Black sea trade
 h that event. the Black sea ports wenid4 probably assume greater im- portance, especially Batouna, which can provide an unlimited supply of fuel oil. and stands as the gateway to Georgia, Azerbaijan and Persia. Ba- toum is not.a good natural port, but is capable of extensive development with breakwaters.
 Many students of Near Eastern commerce expect that Picaeus,s the port. of Athens, will become much more important as a trans shipment center when Turkish control of the Dardanelles and the Bosphorus is end- | ed.
