Brain Tests for Auto DriUers

"Tests for driving ability should be

UnseIfish Peace Aim of u. S.
In Near East, Child Tells Parley

BY the Associated Press.
LAUSANNE. January 31.-Richard
Washburn Child, chief American
spokesman, made a strong appeal for
peace before the near east confer
ence today on the occasion of the
formal presentation to the Turks of
the treaty drawn up by the allied
powers. Turkey must be reasonable,
declared Mr.. Child, if she was to have
the peace and cooperation she re-
quired. His address made a deep
impression upon the conference.
The United States was represented
at Lausanne for three purposes, he
said-first, to protect American in
terests, idealistic or commercial, hu-
name or financial, without discrim-
ination: second, to protect, whenever
possible, humanitarian interests, re-
gardless of nationality, and, third, to
serve in all appropriate ways the
cause of peace.
The Americans, he asserted, sought
no special privilege or favor. They
had declared for the open door in
the near east.
A New Understanding.

assent given by the allied nations in

Great Britain and France" he added

regime Of international relationship
in the near east
Continuing, tho ambassador said:
IF we can assist in bringing about
the peace wanted by the whole world
and the establishment of normal con-
ditions in the near east we are
ready to give any help in our power.
Because we are not at war with Tur-
key and are not involved in the an
cient, by-gone politics of the near
east. We may bring to bear whatever
and impartiality.
should not be made here. We be-
lieve peace will be made here, and
this belief is not founded upon sway
of accords and. dissenions, but upon
existence of forces that lead to
peace. Unless these forces are met by
utter recklessness they are irresist-
ible.
THE failure of world peace would
be a world calamity, but for Tur-
key 1t would be an irreparable trag-
edy."
Turk Doubts and Fears.
The American ambassador declared
that many of the difficulties expert
enced were due to Turkeys failure
to recognize the willingness with
which the other nations concede the
claims Of the new Turkey to the in
dependence and sovereignty and her
right to try to work out her own des-
tiny under the favorable circum-
stances OF peace. -,

French 'Perfidy'
Seen by Turks

BY the Associated Press.

LONDON, January 31.-Turkish
official circles and the press are
unanimous in condemning the
terms of the draft of the peace
treaty presented at Lausanne,
which they consider unacceptable,
says Reuter- dispatch from Con-
stantinople.
Strangely enough, continues the
message, the entire blame for the
unfavorable character of the pro-
posals is attributed to France. and
the newspapers indulge in chorus
of vituperation of the French in
which charges of perfidy are min
gled with threats of possible re-
taliation in Smyrna.
Public opinion had been led TO
believe the only serious outstand-
ing difficulty related to Mosul, but,
adds the dispatch, the public finds
to their dismay that the questions
of the capitulationS, the Ottoman
public debt and the disposition of
Karagatsch still figure disagree
ably among the conditions. and
consequently the French are ac-
cused Of trying to slip in the OBJ
iectionable clauses on the strength
of Great Britain's quarrel over

Question Confronted.
The question which presented itself
to the government. according to the
view Of the majority OF the British
newspapers, was whether to accept
the proposed basis of settlement.
which, according to belief here, the
American Congress will ratify, or to
continue on the 5 per cent interest
rate under the election of another
Congress that might. perhaps. be less
accOmmoda ting.
Several financial writer's had ad-
vocated a policy of attempting to
negotiate a temporary arrangement
for a ten-year period, after which
final settlement would be agreed upon.
The leading financial writers of the
morning newspapers found that opin-
ion hardened yesterday in favor Of
accepting the American funding pro-
posal.
However. there was widely held
opinion that America having regard
for the uncertainties Of the future,
should agree to clause allowing
Great Britain the full benefit of any
changed conditions that may arise In
the national credit of both countries
during the next ten years
In some political quarters 1t is as
serted that Premier Bonar Laws po-
sition against acceptance underwent
a certain modification yesterday as a
result of Chancellor of the Exchequer
Baldwin's statement to the cabinet.
Mr. Baldwins arguments are also said
to have greatly impressed the other
ministers.
The Times today printed a letter
from Sir Roderick Jones. prominent
