MoSLEM PRIDE pALKS AT TAX
ING POSITION LOWER THAN
GREECE OR MEXICO.
DECISION is IN DOUBT
GREECE HAS CEASED TO BE AN
IMPORTANT FACTOR IN THE
CONFERENCE.

Lausanne.-A review OF the Near
Eastern conference shows clearly that
the negotiations have reached a point
OF danger. The question of capitula-
lions, or special privileges enjoyed by
foreigners in Turkey, which was tax
en- up, may make or break the confer
ence, and this is so because an adverse
decision on capitulations may so wound
Turkish national pride that the Turks
may don their fezes and go back to
Angora.
Everybody realizes the extreme deli
cacy and danger of the negotiations on
capitulations. The Turks have re-
jected all suggestions of the powers.
including the United States, that the
special privileges enjoyed by foreig-
ners in the past shall be retained more
especially any attempt to have foreign
consular courts try cases involving for
eign residents or foreign property.
Both Ismet Pasha and DIR. Ria Nur,
plenipOtentiaries from Angora, say
that they would resist any attempt to
place Turkey on a lower International
standing than smaller and less import
ant states, like Greece and Mexico ;
they would insist on complete admin
istrative independence.
DR.. Ria said: 1--WE hear that the
powers, including the United States,
are thinking of substituting 'jurIdicial
guarantees for the hateful expression
capitulatlons.'
In so far as foreign tribunals are
concerned, this Will not do; 1t means
the same thing under a different name,
and we object to a transitory period,
whereby Turkey would be supposed
gradually TO emancipate herself from
the ancient regime of capitulations.
We want complete freedom now"
The leading European powers have
received important help from Japan in
their struggle to keep the foreign
courts in Turkey. Japan herself suf-
fered the same humiliation as Turkey
and sympathizes with the Turkish at
titude.
The Turks argue that complete az
ministration sovereignty is perhaps
the most solemn article Of the new
Ottoman national pact. A prominent
Turk said:
IF Americans and other foreigners
do not like TO be under the authority
of our Turkish courts, then let them
stay away from Turkey. If a Turk
were arrested in New York he would
be tried before nm American court,
and not a murmur. The same situa-
ton should exist in Turkey"
Befire Tchitcherin arrived at Lau-
same, the Turks were inclined to
favor admitting foreign warshlps to
the straits II they entered one ut a
time, but the soviet delegation has
stiffened the Turkish position and Is
met Is now standing for exclusion of
all warships from the straits ut all
times, except Turkish vessels, and de-
mands absolute control for the An
CORA government.
Greece has ceased to be an import
ant factor In the conference since the
execution of Gounaris and his associ-
ates at Athens. and II does not seem
likely that the decision Of the Athens
government to Danish Prince Andrew.
rather than shoot him, will improve
the position Of Greece at Lausanne.
