Lcag que of Nations and also with
draWal of all Allied troops from Con-
stantinople as soon as peace becomes
effective.
E The Allied decision came as a big
surprise, for as late as noon British
officials declared that Great Britain
would not approve any of the Turk
ish claims in advance of the peace
conference. The change in this policy
came in the afternoon, after an en-
change of many messages between
Lord Curzon and Premier Lloyd
George and several long telephone
conversations, which delayed the fin
al session from o'clock to ).
Although the British tonight in
sist that their chief demand. mainly.
freedom of the straits. is embodied
in the conditions, it is generally con-
coded that this unanimous decision
marks reversal of policy on the
part of Great Britain. and is con-
sidered here a victory for French
diplomacy. NJ. Poincare expressed
the belief that the Near East crisis
is over and that all danger of a clash
! is past.
1t is assumed that the British
troops will remain at Chanak pend
ing the peace conference. a broad
neutral zone will divide Eastern
Thrace from Greece and Bulgaria in
the treaty terms. which will be de-
cided at the conference. Both jug
I oslaNia and Rumania insisted upon
this provision before they consented
to the return of Turkey to Europe,
although it is not mentioned in the
note. 1t is thought probable that
the Turkish military forces in Thrace
! and Adrianople will be rigidly limi-
ted and that the strictest guarantees
will be eyacted for the Greek minori-
! ties in these places.

represented that the petitioners,
while having formerly agreed upon
price, had predicted their former hg-
ures upon an estimate made by rep
resentatives of the prospective pur-
chaser and assented to by the vendor

and thus closing a venture it had not
found financially profitable.
"Since our decree. a complete IN
ventory has been taken by the rep
rcsentatives of both petitioners, and
this inventory has been examined by
our engineering department, whose

Maine Power company is reasonably
appraised at the purchase price now
agreed upon of s12,212.50.

ak-wa given as the reason why the
joint note was cabled Immediately
after the conference tonight. M.
Poincare informed Lord Curzon that
with the Allied decision granting the
Turkish claims in the hands Of kem-
al Pasha. the Nationalist leader
could influence his warlike associates
to await calmly the outcome of the
peace conference.
The last-minute abandonment by
Great Britain of her position was
due, it is believed, to desire to
avoid war. which many British on
Gals. both a thome and in the Ne r
East, regarded as likely. Pressure
from British Labor. which was uni
ted against hostilities in the Near
East, Is also thought to have played
no small part in the decision OF the
British Government.
