Dry Enforcement Bill Passed.

Washington.-Far in advance of the usual time, the House passed the treasury appropriation bill, the first of the big supply measures. It carries S115,OO0,000, of which S9,000,0OO Till be for prohibition enforcement. The measure was passed without a record vote and virtually without change, the only material departure from commit tee recommendations being the elim- ination of the apl reputation for an un- der-secretary of the treasury.
 A provision authorizing the bureau of engraving to install power presses in order to reduce the number of plate printers resulted in d three-hour pre- liminary fight, but was finally ap- proved.
 final effort by Representative Tinkham, Republican, of Massachu- setts, to have the bill recommitted be- cause it did not require civil service examination fer prohibition enforce ment officers was defeated.

lSMET PASHA INSISTS ON Ex- CHANGE OF CREEKS FOR
 MOSLEMS.
ARM ENIANS BLAMED
TURKISH DELEGATE BLAMES POWERS iOR TROUBLES OF
 NATION.

Lausanne-Ismet Pasha, head of the Turkish delegation, dashed the hopes of the Near Eastern conference for a speedy and satisfactory settlement for the protection of minorities in Turkey when, in an address here he insisted upon an exchange of the Greek popu- latiOns in Anatolia for the Turks in Macedonia. Ee demanded exclusion of all foreign interference in Turkey, which, he said would protect the re- maining minorities, as the Turks had always been able to get along with other nationals when they kept out of politics and were not stirred up by out side influences.
 Ismet declared that Turkey would not accept Lo: 1 Curzon's proposal to have the League of Nations administer the affairs of the minorities, as that would mean that the foreign powers would continue their interference in Turkish affairs and encourage the mi norities to appeal to the League of Ma tions. This plan, he asserted, would result in the exploitation or mfnorities for political erds under "the lying cloak of humanitarian.
 The Turkish chief delegate reviewed the entire hist>ry of Turkey from the time of the conquest of Constantinople The Turks, hes aid, had lived peaceful ly with the Greeks and Armenians un. til 100 years ago, when the Russians began agitating against the Moham- medans under tEe pretense that Russia was the protector of Orthodox Chris tians in Turkey.
 He charged Russia with being re. spOnSible for the attack Gladstone made on Turkey in behalf of the Ar menians and maintained that the SO called Turkish atrocities against Ar menians frequently had been in the nature of reprisals for pogroms per petrated by the Armenians through en. cOuragement from Russia, which wanted some excuse for invading Tur. key.
 ''The Armenians brought the mas sacres on themselves" Ismet Pasha declared. ''They have abused Turkish generosity and dabbled in politics"
 According to Ismet, there now are no minorities in Turkey which can claim the right to belong to any other nation, thus disposing of the Arme- nian claim for national home in Turkey.
 Lord Curzon replied in spirited manner to Ismet, saying it was the first time the conference had seen the Turkish delegate as historian, and always had thought of him before as d soldier and diplomat.
 The British secretary for foreign affairs said the conference was deal ing with the affairs of peoples in the greatest distress and must find SO- luton for the problem of the miser- able refugees, and without regard for ancient history, and must frame a treaty which would protect these un- happy people In emphatic tones he denounced Ismet's demand that there be a forced exchange of Turkish and Greek populations and declared that the minorities must remain in both countries.

WILL ASK U. s.
 TO CANCEL DEBT
BRITAIN MAY ASK AMERICA TO PREVENT BREAK WITH
 FRANCE.
CONFERENCE FAILS
PREPARATIONS MEET ENDS IN DEADLOCK AS PREMIERS
 DISAGREE.

London.-The allied powers seem to to be looking to the United States as a last hope of preventing a definite break in the entente over reparatiOns, following the collapse of the London separations conference. Despite off cial explanations and the decision to continue the discussions in Paris, the allied premiers after three days conversations find themselves In what appears to be complete disagree ment over separations. Adjournment to Jan. is an effort to delay a little in allied unity.
 M. Poincare returned to Paris with the separations problem as far from even temporary settlement as when he arrived here, although his determin- ation to demand partial occupation of the Ruhr for customs collections was the chief contribution to the failure of the present negotiations.
 There are many well informed French observers who believed thet France will never go this far in ex- acting guarantees and If a decision is eventually taken to act alone, such action to be confined to the admins tration of the Rhineland 1t Is regarded as not unlikely that Great Britain will make one great generous offer to France before adopting policy of iso- lation.' This, 1t Is thought, may take the form of offering to cancel the French debt If France accepts reason able indemnity.
 It is thought possible In French quarters that the British might ap- proach President Harding's admins tration between now and January with the purpose of ascertaining If the United States would be willing to make possible European settlement of separations by cancellation of the French debt, or at least entering conference in which such a step would be considered.
 The next link in the long chain of the allies struggles to get together will be forged at Paris on Jan. 2. There will be fortnight then left for the allies to agree upon some pro- gram.
 The moratorium granted the Ger mans expires Jan. 15, and the next payment on account of reparations, which Germany protests she is un- able to meet, will be due on that date.
 The agreement to disagree-only the diplomats assert was cOnsummated in three days, en- bracing four meetings of the allied premiers. The rock on which har- mony foundered was the British re- fusal formally to countenance the French project for partial occupation of the Ruhr and the taking charge of important German industries. The British cabinet refused to cooperate with France in such measures.

PORTLAND AND SEASIDE SEND
 HELP TO STRICKEN TOWN.
FLAMES DESTROY 30 BLOCKS IN BUSINESS SECTION OF
 ASTORIA, OREGON.

Astoria, Ore.-The business district of Astoria. the oldest city in Oregon. is in ruins, hundreds of persons are homeless and property loss estimated around $15.OOU,O00 was caused by a fire here. For ten hours the flames held sway. eating an overwhelming path through the city.
 Banks, newspaper plants, hotels, stores, theaters and numerous build ings housing a variety of business places were wiped out. According to Fire Chief s. B. Foster, the fire got out of control because 1t burned be- heath the buildings under piling upon which the business section of the city was built. He attributed the disaster to failure to fill in the space beneath the piling. Dynamiting was resOrted to in an effort to stay the flames.
 Norris Staples, automobile man and president of the Bank of Commerce. dropped dead of heart failure while the fire was at its height.
 The body of c. J. Smith, transient. was found hanging under the side walk on the waterfront at Eight and Astor streets, but whether he had ended his life because of the fire or for other reasons the police were un- able to determine. He had spent the night in a cheap lodging house on the waterfront.
 Thirty blocks were wiped out by flames. Many homes in the older res idence district were destroyed and about fifty families living in an apart ment house were made homeless by the destruction of that building. In ad- dition to these, many persons occupy ing rooms in the destroyed area lost everything they had except the clo- thing on their backs.
 A committee of citizens met at the call of Mayor James Bremmer and planned immediate relief measures. They were assured of help from Port land and Seaside. Every restaurant and hotel in the city had been de- strOyed and stocks of food in the stores had beer wiped out.
 Portland bakeries sent loads of bread and Sea~ide sent word that the hotel there was open to receive those without shelter and large number of summer cottages at the beach resorts also were to be offered to the home less. Homes in the residence district also were thrown open to give aid and food to the needy.
