KEMALISTS LEAVE

fillments.

CoNSTANTINoPLE, Oct. a.
First allied military steps to bring
the crescent back to Europe,
amid almost as much glory as the
Turks enjoyed for many decades
prior to the world war, began to-
night.
The Greeks signed the Mudania
protocol and evacuated an initial
sector in Eastern Thrace in CON-
pliance with terms Of the Near
Eastern armistice.
As the Greeks. crushed by the
Kemal Nationalists moved out,
Italian troops marched in. This is
in accordance with the agreement
that allied troops are to occupy
the territory for thirty days be-
fore Turkish authorities set up
civil rule.
Armistiee Now in Eject.
The Mudania armistice becomes
effective at midnight.
These two outstanding develop
ments instilled confidence in the
allied chiefs here that the provi-
sions of the temporary peace pact
would be carried out without a
hitch:
/. The evacuation OF Thrace by
the Greeks has already started.
The Greek government has com
mandeered railroads in the lost
province and troops and nationals
will be evacuated to the ports
where transports are awaiting
them. The first sector was evacu-
ated early tonight.
2. The Kemalists have kept their
pledge with the allies that they
would withdraw their troops from
the present positions occupied in
the neutral zones. The withdrawal
in the Chanak area of the Oar
danelles zone is already under way
and troops who penetrated the
Ismid area near the Bospborus two
days ago are now Withdrawing.
: Kemal Said to BE Pleased.
The allied high commission will
leave here tomorrow for Guebze
where 1t will supervise the carry
ing out OF the Mudania pact
1t was not believed in allied cir
cles here tonight that the Greel,
military generals would seriously
embarrass the fulfiilment OF the
armistice. Even though several
generals threatened to pursue the
war in Thrace to the end, II was
apparent that the Greek cabinet
will induce them to conform to its
expressed concurrence in the Mu-
dania pact.

BILL EXPECTED
Senate Moves Forward SO Rapid
ly That It May Be- Flnlshed by
End of Week.
REPUB WANTS HALF CASH
AND HALF CERTIFICATES
Opponents Hoped for Veto of
President But No Word Re
ceived From Harding.
tBy The Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, Aug. 23.-The Senate
moved forward so rapidly today in it's
consideration of the soldiers bonus bill
that some leaders regarded passage of
the measure before the end of this week
as more than possibility. Opponents
were understood to be disposed to let
the bill take it's course at this time in
the belief that President Harding would
veto it. Should he do so they planned
to center their fight against its passage
over his veto.
No Word From Harding
There still was, however, no official
information before the senate as to the
executives view other than that con-
tanned in his Letter read to the house
last March just before that body passed
the bill The president then advised that
congress either find means of financing
the legislation or postpone its enactment
and some friends of the bill as well as
opponents believed he still is Of that
mind.
Replying to the question by Senator
Robinson, democrat of Arkansas. Chair
man McCumber, of the finance commit
tee, told the senate today that there was
no official information as to what the
that the changes in the bill by which
there would be heavy draft on the trea-
sury for the next 8 years would seem
to meet every objection the president
had urged against the original measure
that he could see no reason why the ex
ecutives should veto the bill now drawn.
Wants Half Cash
After it got to work on the bonus late
today the senate agreed to the AZ amend
ments to the house bill ins exactly fif-
teen minutes and then it got ahead Of
itself to such an extent that the meas
ure was laid aside temporarily. With
the committee changes cleaned up, Sem
ator Bursum, republican, New Mexico
called up his substitute, proposing half
cash and half certificates of Indebtedness
for the veterans, but this was rejected
with out roll call or any discussion.
Senator Bursum protested, saying
there would be some debate on an
amendment which he believed would save
something like three billions of dollars
to the government. He added he wanted
to speak on his proposal, but would not
be ready to proceed until tomorrow. By
unanimous consent, action on the sub
stitute was reconsidered and as no
other amendments were proposed, the
senate turned to other work.
