CONCILIATION and concession were
~ the order of the day in the Near
East. The allies, in formally inviting
the Turks to peace conference, as
sured them that they "will take ad-
vantage of this opportunity to de-
clare that they look with favor upon
the desire of Turkey to recover Thrace
up to the Martha river, and Adrian
Ople." 1t was even intimated that
Russia would be admitted to the con-
ference. and NJ. Franklin-Bouill6n,
who. last year negotiated an agree
ment between the Nationalists and
the French, was sent to Smyrna with
mandate to deal with KemaI. The
stipulation Of the allies was that the
Dardanelles, the Sea Of Marmora and
the Bosporus. must remain free and
open to all nations. The British also
insisted that the neutral zone, which
embraces the straits and CONSTANT
nople. must not be invaded by the
Nationalists during the peace negotia.

Early in the week Kemal gave a
long interview to correspondent Of
the Chicago Tribune, in which he said
that he had no desire to provoke hos
tilities with Great Britain, but that
he insisted on complete independence
Of the Turkish empire and complete
freedom Of the straits to all nations.
He said Turkey had no. wish to for
fify the Dardanelles but that she
must control the Sea Of Marmora and
the Bosporus to secure the safety Of
her capital Constantinople. On Wed.

touched nearly every state with
sense of horror and of loss This was
the distressing collapse of the roof
Of the Knickerbocker Theatre In
Washington, D. c., resulting in nine
ty-six deaths and 1875 persons injured.
Situated in the center OF the beautf-
full Northwest residential section; this
motion picture theatre was patronized
by many persons Of prominence both
in the official and civil life of the Ma
tional Capital, whose family and per-
sonal connections radiated out over
the entire country. The horror was
intensified by terrific snowstorm
which, though 1t retarded, did not
block Red. Cross relief.

A total of 235,OOO horsepower is

surprising locality. The develop
ment is to be undertaken of the
Humber valley, Newfoundland, with
the expenditure of 100000 with
in the next two years. The power
project is tied up with logging and
other operations in way which will
involve the permanent employment
of 800 men in the works and 1000
