Tn-Wcck1y News Flashes From All Over
the Earth.
Turkish independence

Turkish Independence
The news that the allies have agreed to
revise the treaty of Sevres thoroughly and
render complete the political and financial
independence of Turkey has been received
by the Turkish people and newspapers very
calmly. The papers while recognizing that
it is a serious step towards peace advise the
people not to rejoice because the last wore
has not yet been spoken
In Anatolia the newspapers d1strust the
allies. They are full of praise OF Turkish
doggedness, and they point out that, thanks
to Turkish bravery, the treaty OF Sevres,
which was drafted last, is the first to go
into the waste paper basket.
Information received today from Angora
shows the Turks are pleased with the eco
nomic terms offered but that it's doubtful
whether they will accept the territorial
terms. The nationalist government is inclined
to accept ultimately the rectification of the
frontier and leaving Adrianople to Greece.
but the nationalist assembly insists that
Adrianople, containing one OF the most Won
derful mosques in old Turkey, must be re.
turned. The nationalist assembly and the
government are in full agreement that the
Gallipoli peninsula must be returned to Tur-
key. 1t is reported that they have decided to
continue the war rather than accept the al
lied decision in this matter
Yusuf Kamil, the foreign minister, is ex.
pected to arrive in Angora April 1, when he
will submit to the assembly the allied terms.
