POLICY
Of U.s..
Government Seeks Only "Open
Door" and Has Given No
Further Assurances.
By II. X. REYNOLDS,
International News Service.

lnIGrn2Il0n0l
Some of the uncertainty that
has existed in Washington and
throughout the world as to the
attitude of the United States
Government toward the concession
granted by Turkey to the Otto
man-American Development Com
pany, headed by Rear Admiral
Colby NJ. Chester, former Ameri-
can naval officer, was cleared up
today with the publication of q
letter officially setting forth the
policy of the State Department.
Hughes Answers Letter.
The letter was written by Assist
ant Secretary of State Leland Har-
rison to the National Popular Gov
eminent League in reply to a ques-
tionnaire submitted to Secretary of
States Hughes in an effort to OBJ
tain an explanation of this Govern
ment's status in connection with
the Chester concession and the re-
sulting negotiations with Turkey,
Great Britain and other powers.
Secretary Harrison, speaking for
the State Department, denied that
the concessionnaires had been
promised moral or political endorse
ment or have received assurances
that in the event Of any dispute
this Government would be bound to
defend the validity of the conces.
sion"
No Guarantees Given.
eft is not this Governments prac.
tice," he declared, ito give such
assurances. or TO give implied flu
ture guarantees
"" 1t may be added that
neither the department (of Stated
nor its officer in the field took part
in the negotiations for the conces.
sion. These were carried on directly
by the parties concerned. AS the
department has taken occasion to
point out - the Govern
ment's interest in matters of this
nature is that of securing recogni-
ton for the policy Of the open door
in assuring equality of CONNER
cial opportunity and fair play
Secretary Harrison said the State
Department had received no com.
plete or authentic copy" of the
Chester concession, as approved by
the Angora Assembly, but under.
stood that certain mining and rail.
road rights had been accorded to
the Ottoman-American Develop
ment Company. The departments
reports do not indicate, he added,
that the concession is a monopoly
or that it contemplates, as sug-
gested by the National Popular
Government League, the control of
certain administrative functions in
Asia Minor
Feared Foreign War.
In its original communication to
the State Department, the league
said its concern was caused by the
fear that any pledges Of moral sup
I'ort given by the United States
might mean that thousands of
American boys would be called TO
die abroad defending such commit :
ments, to the possible advantage of
the holders Of contracts in Asia
Minor, but to the disadvantage of
our nation"
Secretary Harrison dismissed this
suggestion with the plain statement
that there had been no guarantees,
ana said 1t was the policy of the
Government to deal with questions
affectlng Its nationals as they arise,
ana as international courtesy,
equity and justice Justify"

My dear Editor:-
fhe grades Of all Of those who sat
at the recent Teachers Examinations
have been forwarde / to the Director OF
Education in ST. Thomas.
The results taken as a whole are goOa
and better than tie showing made last
year. To illustrate, how the standards
of our teaching force is being raised from
year to year the following is significant:
In 1921 we had three teachers holding a
Principal Teachers License; IN 1922 there
were five; and from the results OF the
recent examinations the total VIII De
increased to ten.
The. individual teachers are becoming
more..interested 10 their work from a
professional point of view and it is ev1-
dent that the future of our teachers IS
ssurediif they continue to apply them
Sc. res seriously to their work and study
diligently to rank first in their class.
Sincerely,
ARTHUR E. LlNDBORG,
Asst. Director Of Education.
