LAUSANNE, Jan. 1.-THE Orient
and Occident. seem to be playing a
game of waiting at the Near Eastern
conference; each side appears to be
seeking to wear the other out. The
Turks, as Orientals. play good
game, but Ismet Pasha betrayed some
uneasiness today that he might be
overplaying his hand.
The head of the Turkish delega-
ton sent his secretary among the
newspaper correspondents to see If
anybody knew anything about an al
legged statement by Lord Curzon pre-
dieting the collapse of the conference
and describing the possibilities of
signing peace as absolutely hopeless
Nobody was aware of such a state
ment but the British have been
openly pessimistic and this has
reached the Turks.
AS Secretary for Foreign Affairs,
Lord Curzon would like to return to
London as soon as possible. He thinks
two months enough to devote to Near
Eastern discussions and believes that
things should be brought to a climax
good, he hopes; bad if it has to be.
The British plan for presenting the
treaty to the Turks has again been
postponed. however, to permit of fl
nal negotiations on economic and
financial matters like the Ottoman
debt in which France is especially
interested as her people hold five
sixths of the Ottoman bonds. NJ.
Bompard, who went to Paris today,
accompanied by French and British
experts, will go over the financial
questions tomorrow or Friday with
the French government and bring
back Saturday night to the allies
Frances last word on the controver-
sal questions involved.

GRACE AND EASE
ARE MARVELLOUS

Sergei Rachmaninoff. who will give
a recital in the Jefferson Monday
evening, January %, has kindled and
firmly sustained the interest and APP
plause of American audiences.
Wherever and whenever he appears
he conquers.
No such impressive figure as Rach-
mammoth has surprised the eyes of
his hearers in many a day. He plays
and they feel the fineness of his
touch, the wide range of his under
standing and sympathies with music,
the artistic devotion within him. He
plays, and through the voice of Rach-
mammoth his listeners also hear the
glorified voice of the composer.
In his own music the two voices
become as one, and the deeper and
warmer is the response of the au-
dienee. Until they have heard Rach-
mammoth play it, they have not truly
heard Rachmaninoffs music. All the
music he has written has established
the wealth of his imagination, his
unique personality and his hold upon
the public on both sides of the At
1antic.

most of them, a hearing of the works
of the masters is the equivalent of
several lessons. In securing the only
travelling company in America for
local presentation, the Music Study
club had in mind the value 1t would
be to students in particular and to
the public at large.
The entire program for the half
week of music has been finally de-
cided upon and will comprise Aida"

Harry F.. Sinclair again as it's chief
witness. the Senate oil investigating

the edge of the Teapot Dome contro-

The committee, which is headed by
Senator LaFollette of Wisconsin, one
of the leading critics of the action
of the Harding administration in

reserve in Wyoming to the Sinclair
interests, had Mr.. Sinclair before it
for more than four hours. During

either by the witness or his interro-

The testimony of Mr.. Sinclair to-
day seemed headed toward the big
controversy, but the committee coun-
sci, after getting various facts as to
stock ownership of the Mammoth Oil
company, the Teapot Dome operat-
ing concern, steered the examination
into another channel.
Mr.. Sinclair was asked in some de-
tail as to the disposition of the APP
