TurcO American
Treaty Progress
RemG SLOW

LAUSANNE. July 2e.-By Tho As
ISOLATED Press.SThe American min.
lister. Joseph c. Crew. and the chief
Turkish delegate. Ismet Pasha, held
a night session that lasted until four
o'clock in the morning but little
progress was made in solving the
problems of the projected Turco-
American treaty.
II was denied categorically hal the
United States asked for extension OF
the authority OF the foreign legal ad-
visers that Turkey has agreed to APP
point in temporary substitution OF
the former system OF judicial extra
territorial privileges.
The Turkish spokesmen who made
the assertion last night declared the
Angora assembly would never ratify
more privileges TO America than 20
Europe.
The Americans today said they had
agreed to accept the terms of the
Turkish declaration concerning judi
cial safeguards which Ismet Pasha

K|WAN|S CLUB
LUNCHEON HELD

That the members of the Casper
Kiwanis club by taking an active part
in luncheon programs and by ex.
changing among themselves their
best ideas would be able to develop
both themselves and the club to an
almost unlimited degree was the
thought brought up at the luncheon
today by e. E.. Fisher. chairman OF
the program committee. and z. H,
Fuller.
Mr.. Fisher, who was recently APP
pointed to his position stated today
that he was inaugurating a system
whereby every member would have
an opportunity to reveal his latent
talent, as a thinker, an orator, and
a builder. and that the burden OF
speaking would not fall on a few
members who are always willing to
come to the front and advance ideas.
THE Ktwanis club Ia composed OF
three different classes of men," said
Mr.. Fisher, There are those who
come here to be lightly entertained.
those who come with the hope OF
learning something from imported
speakers. and those who come for the
purpose Of developing themselves by
lahAAlb aA dClANo PhKls
Mr.. Fuller stressed the fact that all
men have similar general ambitions
and that such clubs as the Kwanls
are excellent mediums of obtaining
the culture and finish hat a man
may have no other opportunity OF
obtaining.
NJ. A Becklinger gave a report to,
day on the Casper booster trip and
stated something Of the results that
had been obtained by that expedition.
The Ktwanis club will put on an
unique stunt at the Casper Rodeo for
the purpose of getting interest in the
state fair to be held at Douglas later
in the yea
The proposed expedition to the Al.
pine Gardens next Thursday evening
will not take place aa planned. but a
picnic will be held on that date either
at the mountain home of DR.. II. r.
L~athrop's or at some other oonven-
lent place.
