TURKS REFUSE
SPECIAL AID
TO ARMENIANS

DON'T WANT MANDATES
Will Oppose Interference
Of League With
Minorities

lausanne, Uec. ,l5.-lurkey rCtu3-
ed at today's session of the Nea,
East conference to assign any special
part Of Turkey as a national home
for the Armenians. Ismet Pasha de-
clared this would mean new at
tempt to dismember Turkey.
Lord Curzon warned Ismet that
there would be no sympathy any
where in the world for Turkey if
the conference broke down on the
question of the treatment of minor
tiles. !,
After long and unsatisfactory
discussion the entire question of
minorities was referred to a sub
commission.
/, In his declaration regarding the
Armenians Ismet said there was not
bit Of territory in Turkey proper
or in it's provinces or in Cilicia
which did not contain a Turkish ma
jority, and no territory which could
be detached in any way from the
fatherland for the Armenians.
. Ismet declared that if the Greeks
and Armenians were unhappy it was
because they had put themselves in
the position of aggressors, and that
this attitude has. received support
from other countries.
Ismet Pasha was irreconciable on
other points concerning the treat
ment of minorities in Turkey. BE.
sides declaring Turkey would not set
aside an inch of Turkish soil for an
Armenian national home, he said
she would not accept the regulation
of rights or minorities by an inter-
national commission in Constanti-
nople or elsewhere.
The Angora delegates to the Near
East conference are vigorously COM
batting the plan Of the powers to
write the question Of minorities into
the treaty which it is hoped will be
drawn up here. 1smet Pasha and
his associates, fearful that intcrna-
tional regulations will be imposed
upon Turkey which will obligc her
to- protect foreign nationals living
within her borders, believe that such
conditions would be an infringe
ment on Turkish sovereignty and a
slight to her honor
Ismct Pasha hat; never been so
aggressive as in his attitude on this
issue, which in the session yesterday
chanllenged the attention of the
world when Ismet declared that Tur-
key could not allow the league of
nations to look after the affairs of
the minorities.
The Turkish statesman contend,
that the Armenians in Turkey woulo
be perfectly happy if agitators in
other countries would only let them
alone and if they would keep out Of
politics. Ismet made it clear that
Turkey would always be haven for
.non-Turkish races which behaved
themselves and subscribed to Otto
man laws and ideals. He also as
serted that the Greeks in Constanti-
nople would be allowed to remain
there if they were born in that city
and if they would become Turkish
subjects.
1t is estimated that only about
$4,000 of the 100000 Greeks in Con-
stantinople have retained their
Greek citizenship and it is hoped
here that the great majority of the
Greek colony, which is SO useful in
the commercial life of the capital,
will be allowed to remain.
