SULYAN'S ENVOY IS GIVEN FROSTY EYE
Renal Leaders Refuse to Recog- ,,r nize His Existence

Constantinople, Oct. 20 (By Asso- ciated Press).---The sultans govern ment has been soundly snubhed by the first diEnitary of the Turkish nationalist government to arrive here since Mustapha Renal Pasha's army consolidated the strength Of the An. gora government by its victory over the Greek.
 Rafet Pasha, military governor of Thrace upon his arrival at his Stam- bout residence yesterday found wait Ing there official representatives from the Grand Vizier and the ministry of the interior. The former sent in his card first.
 The stubby little general smoothed out the wrinkles in his tunic, gazed at the card In a pompous, official man. ner and said
 "Who is this person. I know of no Grand Vizier; there is no such of- nce or official"
 Gives Frosty Glance. ,..
 Next came the envoy whose card stated that he represented "Field Marshal Ali Riga Pasha, minister of the interior" Again Rafet assumed his official air.
 "I am sure l don't know any such person" he again announced. "I re- member an amiable Turkish gentle man of the same name but I cer- tainly know of nobody occupying such position in the Turkish govern ment."
 Meanwhile third envoy had been cooling his heels uneasily in the ante room. This was a still more distin- guished parsonage. namely member of the Sultan's own household who had been sent at the last moment as the personal representative of the Sultan to bid the military governor an official welcome. When he heard the report of the other two envoys, however, he was seized with panic. He quietly tucked his card in his pocket and slipped back to the Yildiz palace.
 Thus ended the effort of the su- tan's government to obtain recogni- ton from the powerful visiting dele gate from Angora.
 Rafet Pasha expressed his great pleasure at again visiting Constanti- nople If only for a day or two en route to my pleasant patriotic duty in Thrace."
 Future of Turkey
 Speaking of the future position of Turkey, he said: Y ,,s.... > !
 we know we have one of the big gest armies in the world. and we arc today the most powerful military ma tion. We have achieved a victory which I am confident no other army could have won.
 The spirit which the Turkish peo- pie have shown has excited the ad- mration of the entire world. When cur country was threatened the whole people took up arms voluntarily and eagerly; there is no conscription in Turkey, nor any necessity for it.
 Today Turkey is no. more divided the nation is one. History has record ed our military success. There is still\ a great task before us and it is work tor our younger, men. It is the up-' building of our country to economic prosperity
 ' We have won our full freedom and nobody can sta4se It. from us.e Hence forth Turkeyawill be ptrely Moslem and can make 1t so without let or hindrance from the outside

FRENCH SEE MORE
 HOPE FOR SUCCESS
Some Believe Lloyd Georges Defeat Is Victory for Them-Oth.
 CTS Silent.

Paris, Oct. 20 (By Associated Press) s).-The dominating note in the French press comment on the fall of the Lloyd George cabinet in England is that the change cannot fail to make negotiations for the settlement of Europe's problems easier. To the majority of the newspapers 1t is looked upon as victory for France.
 Andre Tardieu, writing in the Echo de Paris, however, advises care In passing judgment. Tt will be the vogue of the moment. no doubt to say that the departure of Lloyd George Is a success for France" he says. but prudent people will take time to judge"
 L'Homme Libre says:
 Franco British relations had reached an acute and painful point. With another than Lloyd George there cannot fail to be an improve ment with loyal effort and after frank explanation"
 Gustave Nerve, editor of La vic- toire, says:
 Lloyd George is finally over thrown. Now perhaps 1t will be pos sible to proceed seriously to the re- construction and pacifcation of Flu rope"
 L'Eclaire thinks Lloyd George's great mistake was in not understand ing that the interests of France and Britain are closely connected.
 Teh Echo de Paris declares 1t would have been easy for the French premier to cause the fall of Lloyd George at any time since 1919 by simply declaring that France had re- covered her liberty of action.
 Our premiers preferred to tenn porize," the newspaper adds
 Le oJurnal warns the French pee- pie against counting upon a complete change in the British policy. The problems that divide men remain" it says
 "All we can hope for is that the new men will strive to solve them in a conciliatory sirit instead of seeking the element of continual division"
 Le Matin expresses in vivid terms the hope that France never again will see Lloyd George
