10y MORNING JOURNAL SPECIAL LEASED wiREl
San Reno, April 81 (by the AS
sociated Press) The supreme
council of the allies is fully pre-
pared to execute the Turkish treaty
by military force. if necessary. The
council accepted today a plan
drawn for the employment of the
allied armies by Marshal Foch,
field marshal; Sir Henry Wilson,
British chief of staff, and General
Badoglio, Italian chief of staff, who
were present at the morning ses-
sion.
Two hundred thousand allied
troops now are within the borders
Of the Turkish empire, strategically
dispersed and these forces can be
increased If Turkish resistance de-
velops formidably, to any essential
number. Greece will probably
supply the largest number of
troops.
Supplementary naval plans were
also approved by the council,
The treaty which the council
purposes to finish today does not
include the final arrangements for
mandatory states. They will sim
ply be cut apart from Turkey and
disposed of by the supreme council
in the future. The council has de-
termined to leave Kurdistan part
Turkish territory for a period of
two years and then decide whether
to leave it with Turkey or make 1t
a separate province under a man
date.
This morning the council dis
cussed the composition of military,
naval and aerial commissions in
Turkey. It gave to the military and
naval experts the instructions nee
essary for preparation of data for
compilation by the editorial COM
mittee on articles relative to the
Turkish treaty.
The limit to be fixed for the
right of requisition to be exercised
by these commissions also was con-
sidered. The question of Turkestan
was settled by the council.
The communication issued by the
council after the afternoon session
follows:
"The council resumed discussion
of the clauses of the Turkish treaty
and afterwards heard naval and
military experts on certain techni-
cal points which required clearing
up. The sitting closed with certain
territorial questions under discus
sion"

HUNS BE GIVEN
TIME EXTENSION
Belief Is That American In
terestS Would Be Affected
By Withdrawal of Troops
From Neutral Zone.
Icy MORNING JOURNAL spso,.. tsAsro w'as'


Washington, April 21.-Sugges-
ton has been made to the allied
governments by the state depart
ment that there be granted an ex-
tension of time to Germany of the
agreement which expired April 10,
and which permitted the presence
of limited German forces in the
neutral zone.
Tentative decision of the San
Reno conference yesterday to
compel strict enforcement of the
Versailles treaty. however. is inter
preted by officials here as indlcat-
ing that the allies have not deemed
it advisable to grant the extension.
The agreement in question was
concluded August 8, in response to
a protest of Germany against pro-
visions of the Versailles treaty pro
hibiting the retention of an armed
garrison in the neutral zone oppo-
site the occupied Rhine bridge
heads. In permitting the retention
in the zone of twenty battalions OF
infantry and small contingent of
cavalry and artillery in answer to
the German request, the allies ex-
pressly stipulated the forces should
be withdrawn within three months
after the treaty should take effect,
or onSApril 10. the treaty having
gone into effect January 10.
American interests, it is said, in
official circles mere, would be vi
tally affected by the withdrawal of
all German police protection from
the neutral zone opposite the Co
blenz bridgehead. Also reports re-
ceived here recently by officials
have indicated that withdrawal Of
the armed German forces from ihat
area probably would set off incipl-
ent Red revolts in a fringe of Ger
man towns fronting Coblenz.

Philadelphia, April 2t.--A cam
paign for the building of homes is
Philadelphia answer to the ques-
tion of how to keep rents down to
a reasonable basis The tenant
population is in deperate straits for
rents have been going higher and
higher and no end seems to be in
sight. The scramble for homes in
the suburbs Is so acute that when
one woman moved some of the
furniture out of her home, the
other day, in order to clean the
house, twenty-five persons tried to
rent it from her within a few hours.
To stop the profiteering in rents
and homes. several organizations
are attempting to unite on a pro-
gram of house building to continue
for at least six months or until the
shortage has been relieved. These
organizations include associations
of tenants, trade unions, repre-
sentatives of the building trades
and mortgagtng companies. They
have been asked to undertake this
work by the department of public
welfare.
Meanwhile camping ground ac-
cessible by street cars is in great
demand. Tent manufacturers say
more orders have been placed for
tents this month than ever before
in Philadelphia history.
There is an Unprecedented
amount of building of cheap cot
tages and bungalows within a
radius of thirty miles of Philadel-
phia to accommodate the rush of
tenants that is expected when mild
weather comes. Those erected in
one community cost about $500
each and are eagerly rented at $3.50
for the season.
Old canal boats lying along. the
Schuylkill river are being fitted out
as dwellings and families are glad
to rent them as temporary homes.
