negotiations with the British gov

standing concerning this govern
ment's right TO board rum carrying
shops flying the British flag, the
cabinet may decide to ask congress
for legislation at the special session
in November. more clearly defining
the powers of the various depart

shipments.
Not only is there difference be-
tween this government and the
British. but serious clashing of
authority exists apparently, which
officials admit, Is hampering the
war on liquor smugglers via Allan
tic ports and the Canadian border.
Further the sale of liquor on ship
ping board vessels, under the ap-
proval of Chairman Lasker of the
shipping board. has complicated the
situation. This government, some
cabinet members feel, is in no po-
sition to urge upon Great Britain
the prevention of rum smuggling in
British ships so long as n clear
violation of the prohibition laws
aboard government owned ships is
approved by an officer of this gov
crnment.
AT tomorrows cabinet meeting a
plan of cooperation among govern

smuggling will be discussed. This
plan was worked out by commit

smuggling.

Paris. Sept. 25.-The reply of
Mustapha Kemal to the Allied Near
East peace proposals-which means
peace or war--was awaited today
There was a distinct feeling of
optimism that Kemal, the leader Of
the victorious nationalists. would
accept the allied plan which allows
the Turks to come back into Eu-
rope. giving them their capital, Con
stantinople, and restoring to them
Eastern Thrace as far as the Marit-
"a river.
II was hoped that an answer to
the allied proposals, which also in
vited kemal TO attend a Near East
peace conference, presumably to be
held in October, would be received
by the end OF the week. Franklin
Boulion, French Near East expert,
has left Paris and is due to con-
fer with kemal on Friday. it was
stated. II was reported here that
Kemay objected TO the peace par
Icy invitation because Bulgaria and
Russia were not included in the

who is said to have the confidence
of the Turkish leader, will be able
to persuade Kemal to accept the
terms which, it was pointed out, in
clude almost the entire list of de-
mands made on the allies by Kemal
Word which seeped through here
from the Near East said that Kemal
was having a hard time to hid his
forces in check. Some credence is
placed in this by diplomats here.
