London, April 1.
Following tho news from Moscow that
the Russian Soviet Government had
signed treaties with Turkey, Persia and
Afghanistan. as contained In THE NEW
YORK HERALo's Reval despatch, details
of these treaties are reaching London.
Although tho British official attitude is
most guarded. It being realized that the
situation In tho Near East is full OF
dynamite. IL was learned that tho Near
Eastern authorities in the Foreign Office
here were deeply concerned
The Russo-Turkish treaty brings up
again one OF the oldest questions In Eu-
rope-Russian control of the Straits OF
the Dardanelles-which the Allies en-
deavored TO sidestep In the Treaty of
Sevres. One version of this Russo-Tirk-
ish treaty. II was stated by an Ruthortta-
tive source here to-day. says that the
Turks have agreed that Russia control
the north shore OF the Dardaneiles and
Turkey the south shore. This would give
GaliipoN to Russia which the 5evres
Treaty allotted to Greece. and the inter
national zone of the Sea oc marmora.
upon which Observation-Disclosures" the
great Eastern gateway depended.
The Manchester Gudrdsca, publishes
what purports 20 be the text of the
Russo Persian and the Russo -Afghanis-
tan treaties, which its correspondent
brought out OF Russia. The texts OF
both treaties follow closely THE NEW
York HERALD special cable from
ReYel last week. Russia turns over al,
the Concessions and conquests the Gar
ist Government wrung from either of
these countries during the last century
and RENTS the debts due from these
countries to the Czarist Government
while in the case of Afghanistan. Russia
gives a subsidy of 100000 rubles a
year.
In return for all this It is stipulated
that neither Persia nor Afghanistan
party which is hostile to the interests of
Russian concessions are freely turned
back to the Persian Government. with
the provision, however, that Persia can
not pass them on to any third party.
Likewise it is agreed that If Persia
and Afghanistan are unable to defend
themselves from invasion Russia win
help them. Great Britain is not men
toned anywhere in either treaty, but
the implications are clearly antagon-
istic to the traditional policy OF Great
Britain and as these States are buffers
against India, II is expected here that
strong representations will be made to
Moscow and IL is even possible that the
Anglo Russian trade agreement may be
cancelled.

Under one amendment, approved
over democratic opposition. corpo-
rations making gifts for charitable
purposes would be relieved from
tax on such sums unless they
exceeded FIVE percent Of the net
income of the company.
The big fight Of the day was over
an amendment defining as foreign
trade corporations all domestic cor
porations which derive SO percent
or more OF their gross income from
the active conduct Of business out
side the United States and similarly
as foreign traders those American
citizens who derive so percent or
more OF the gross income from

The democrats claimed this pro-
posaI was a discrimination against
purely domestic corporations in the
matter Of taxes. The republicans
defended it on the ground that It
was necessary TO relieve foreign
trade corporations and foreign trad
ers from taxation on income receiv-
ed from sources outside the country
