ALLIES WILL NOT
FORCE TREATY ON.
TURK COVE RNMENT
Mmystery Surrounds Prepa-
aration of Formal Document
To Be Presented at General
Session.

LAUSANNE, Jan. s. - When the
allies conception of what the Lau-
same treaty should be is drafted,
there will be no intention and there
will be no disposition to take it to
the Turks and say: VIII you sign
it-yes or no. That was what the
allied spokesment made clear today
in discussing the document which
the treaty experts are compiling.
A good deal of mystery surrounds
this document and a report has been
current that the allies will present
1t to the Turks one of these days in the
form of an ultimatum. This report
has excited the Turks considerably,
probably making them more intran-
slgant than they really wish to be.
1t has induced Ria Nur Bey in
various outbursts to defend his coun-
try's interests, for Ria Muir ever
ardently voices the more chauvinistic
opinion of Angora's new assembly.
The allies say they will permit
free discussion of the still disputed
points in meetings OF the full COM
missions, but that SO much time has
passed in tho subcommission debates
that it has become Imperative to
sum up the work and submit the
document in as complete a form as
possible.

Round House and Switching
Facilities at East Thomas
to Practically Double
Present Plant

Switching facilities of the Frisco
railway will be practically doubled
during the present year, with the re-
moval of roundhouse, tracks and
equipment from Ninth avenue. north,
to East Thomas, in accordance with
an agreement reached with the city
commission Saturday.
This became known Monday when
maps deposited with the city engi-
neer were made available to an Age
Herald representative and when e.
NJ. Mohler, superintendent of ter
minals, gave out statement of the
company's program of expansion
that will call for an expenditure of
approximately 100000.
Twenty Engines
Maps call for a roundhouse at East
Thomas with a capacity of 20 en-
gines, double the present capacity of
10, and provision will be made for an
addition of 20 more.
Approximately Is switching tracks
will be added to the present number
of 80, and there will be considerable
additions to the car shops and icing
facilities, according to Mr.. Nicholas.
There will be ample room for addi-
ton of more switching tracks and
for expansion of other equipment
that is not possible at the present
location
There will be only two main tracks
left on Ninth avenue. and there will
be two spur tracks for few blocks.
At present there are 80 or more
tracks in the switching yards. They
have practically blocked traffic, and
it is understood that with their
elimination will come opening and
development of Twentieth street.

will go around the switching yards
at East Thomas instead of through
them, as they do on Ninth avenue.
1T has become impossible to han
die satisfactorily all the traffic in
the Ninth avenue yards" said Mr..
Mohler. considerable time is lost
by locomotives waiting to be ac-
commodated, and work has to be
done on some of them outside the
house because they are too large for
the present structure.
"The projected program will re-
lieve this situation by practically
doubling the switching facilities,
and it will provide for future expan-
sion that is impossible on Ninth ave-
nue."
Under agreement with the city. the
Frisco company is to remove its
roundhouse. switching tracks and
shops to East Thomas during the
present year, and It's freight house to
Powell avenue in 1924. This was
considered preliminary step to pro-
lection of the city's 100000 yiaduct
