ISMET PASHA and his Turkish
L Nationalist colleagues find them
selves up against a tough proposition
in the Near East peace conference
which began its sessions at Lausanne
on Monday. Lord CurZon, by promis-
ing Britain's full support for the
French program in relation to Ger
many, brought about complete accord
between Great Britain and France In
regard TO the terms to be imposed on
the Turks and in general It appeared
that Italy would agree with them. To
start with, the allies decided. over the
protests of the Turks, that the pro
ceedlngs Of the conference should be
secret and every delegate was pledged
not to reveal them, the press being
given only a brief communique each
day. After several days the Turks
again protested against this, asserting
that the British and French delegates
pondents secretly, while they, as Mos
lem gentlemen, were observing their
pledge. All of which awaited them
nothing. Ismet also objected in vain
to the presence Of third parties"
especially the Japanese, in the CON
ference, and asked why Russia was
not fully represented. In the latter he
was backed up by Premier MuSsolinl
of Italy who declared Russia should
participate fully in the conference
This stand of the Fascist statesman
was q great surprise to the British
and French. The soviet delegation was
