PEACE IN EAST IS
 PRACTICALLY SURE
Treaty With Turks to Be Signed,
 Probably Next Week

Lausanne, July 17--Approval is ex- pected to be given tomorrow to the agreement reached last night by the allies and the Turks and within a week the delegates are expected to sign a traty of peace ending the 1, Near East conference. The accord represents victory for the United States whose representa- tive, Joseph c. Grew, was successful in his insistence that the policy of the open door and equal opportunity in the Near East be adopted.
 Through conferences with Ismet Pasha, head of the Turkish delega- tion, MT. Grew won him over against the pleas of the British and French plenipotentiaries.
 The inside story of the meeting yesterday was one of fierce battle waged over the question of the oil fields in Mesopotamia which the Eng fish claim under the provisions of the concessions of the Turkish Petroleum company
 Though none of the American dele gation was present it was apparent that American influence was domi- nant.
 Ismet Pasha was unshakable. One by one he turned down every formula which he calculated would give any confirmation to the British company's petroleum concession in the treaty.
 The allied agreement to drop their demands for future preferential right to Turkish contracts is considered here an attempt to make the Amer ican public feel that Europe respects American doctrine and wishes to CO., operate with American capital there.
 The allies agreed, pending the es- tablishment of permanent regime not to insist upon keeping two war ships each in the straits.
 The treaty will be signed July A or e5, it is expected.
