One thinks of capes as about the
simplest of garments, but the in
genuity Of designers has been put to
the test to give them innumerable
and unexpected touches. They are
endlessly varied and interesting, es-
peclally those that complete tailored
costumes. The liking for color con-
trasts and for matching up frocks and
the Innings of wraps to be worn with
them, contribute to the fine style of
the dress-and-cape costume.

The $1,000,0OO,000 claimed by the
Turks for devastations committed by
the Greeks during their retreat in
Asia Minor has been Cancelled, the
Turks accepting the following com.
promise:
l. In the treaty Greece acknowl-
edges moral responsibility for the de-
vastations and Turkey renounces the
right TO indemnity on account of the
economic status of Greece.
2. The district of the Karagatch
railway from Karagatch to the Bull.

3. Ships captured since the formal
armistice In 1918 are mutually resti-
tuted.
Turkey gains greatly by the last
article, as Greece captured many
Turkish Ships, while Turkey captured
few Greek vessels.
Minister Grew, American observer,
played a highly important role In the
settlement, he verbally transmitted to
Ismet, an urgent appeal from the
state department to the Turks to
make peace. The appeal emphasized
that another war in the near east
would brighten away American CAPT

reconstruction of Turkey.
