Drafting Treaty.

ciated Press Of the treaty
of Lausanne now is in progress. Tho
experts are working, however. on
clauses that involve no disputed points
and although the sub-commissions
are making rapid progress it seems
impossible that any complete docu-
ment can even be initiated before
Christmas.
Rumors are now in circulation that
January "a has been fixed as the ten
tative date for signing the pact.
Any considerable vacation over
Christmas seems unlikely, largely be-
cause of Turkeys determination that
there shall be no lull in the conference
until definite terms of peace are
agreed upon, at least in principle, or
until it is clear that there can be no
agreement. The Turks have insisted
SO vigorously, on continuing work
throughout the approaching holidays
that the other delegations virtually
have abandoned plans for an extended
/ recess.
Ismet Pasha has been instructed by
his government not to permit any
break In the conference until some de-
(; cision Is reached. Turkey has 25O.-
