LONDON. September 21.-With prog
ress reported to have been made in
Paris yesterday toward solving the
differences between France and Great
Britain over the near eastern crisis.
the British official circles expressed
the opinion today that the key to the
whole situation now lies with the
Turkish nationalists. from whom
nothing has as yet been heard with
regard to their intentions toward the
neutral zone and crossing into Thrace.
If the Angora authorities agree to
a peace conference there will OBJ
viously be an armistice. In the mean
time it is authoritatively stated there
is no basis for the suggestion that
Great Britain will Se prepared to
evacuate the position her troops are
holding at Chanak, on the Asiatic side
of the straits. in return for French
naval assistance.
Lloyd George Defends Policy.
Representatives of the British
trades unions congress waited on
Prime Minister Lloyd George today to
question him further with regard to
the governments near eastern foley.
and the general council Of the trades
union congress planned to consider
this afternoon the report Of its repre-
sentative.
In replying to the deputation, the
prime minister is said to have de-
Tended the governments action with
clearness and spirit. He gave the
labor men to understand that he was
In perfect accord with them in de-
string peace, pointing out that peace
had always been the governments
objective and that 1t had no intention
of provoking war. He declared that
it was partly due to the prompt ac-
ton of the British government that
the position was easier and the proba-
bilities so favorable to the preservation
Of peace.
Meanwhile, the Daily Herald. the
official organ of labor. continued to-
day its vigorous campaign against
war.
Must Decide ON Japan.
The exact makeup Of the conference
appeared today to be somewhat prob
lemattcal. 1t Is pointed out here that
the conference would not really be
an allied affair. but composed of ma
tions directly interested in the near
east. The question of the inclusion
of Japan would have to be decided
by all the allies, 1t was indicated.
Great Britain's willingness to have
Japan participate, If she desired, was
expressed. although it was commented
that Japan had no direct interest in
the problem. 1t is authoritative1y

CEMETERY FIGHTS
ROAD ASSESSMENT
BIadensburg Highway Paw
ingeNet Under Borland
:.
Amendment, Is Claim. 6.

the Mount Oiiyet Cemetery Company
today filed suit In the District Supreme
Court against the District Of Columbia
and the District Commissioners for
the cancellation Of assessments under
the ~Borland amendment for paving
Bladensburg road. amounting to
s2.55s.21.
The company. through Attorney
William c. Sullivan, claims that the
Borland amendment does not apply to
rural sections of the District; that
the paving of BIadensburg road was
not substantial and was inferior in
character, and that the act Of Congress
required that the road be paved from
18th and H streets northeast to the
District line and the work was stopped
a quarter Of a mile north of 18th and
H streets. The .Borland amendment, it
Is claimed, applies only to cases IN
which the repaving is done from the
side to the center of the road, and
that Bladenburg road was not repaved
from either side to the center. The
amendment does not affect cemetery
property, 1t is also claimed, and, In
any event. can apply only to the ex-
tent of benefits actually conferred
upon the property ASSeSSeu.
Exempted by Charter.
The court Is advised that the char
ter of the. cemetery company exempts
it from taxation, and it is charged
that the District authorities notified
the cemetery company that the as
sessments would be cancelled, pub
lished such notification in the news
papers, and thereafter did cancel the
same, but later, without notice to the
cemetery company, undertook to re-
woke such cancellation and to re-es-
tablish the assessments, which the
bill caliins the Commissioners had no
authority to do.
The bill prays. among other things.
that any other parties in like situa-
tion who desire to do 60 may be per-
mitted to Intervene to have their own
assessments cancelled. upon terms of
Contributing their due and proper
share to the costs and expenses Of the
suit.
