By the Associated Press.
TULSA, Okla, May 30.-The 140th
General Assembly of the Presbyterian
Church in the United States OF America
entered its final sessions here today
with elections of board members the
only unfinished business.
Convened as the supreme court OF
the church, the assembly yesterday
cleared its docket or cases involving
ministers and layrnen. A report OF the
permanent judicial commission was ac-
cepted dismissing an appeal from a
New York Synod decree annuiling
charges of doctrinal delinquency against
Rev. Albert Park Fitch. He was ac-
cused Of being unclear on the church
belief In the virgin birth Of Jesus.
An appeal of Albert II. Cron1bie from
a decision Of the Synod of South Da-
kota dismissing him from the ministry
was dismissed, as were appeals OF j. H.
Hackethorn, removed as ruling elder
OF the Mount Hope Avenue Presbyterian
Church Of Lansing, Mich, and Rev.
winfred Altvater, discharged as pastor
of the Lodge Avenue Presbyterian
Church Of Toledo. Ohio.
DR.. Crombie based his appeal In part
on accusations Of prejudice In the lower
church courts.
Mr.. AItyater's case had precipitated
prolonged litigation In the lower church
tribunals, In which he had been accused
of prejudice, malice and causing many
persons to leave his church.
Since converting the assembly has
been the forum OF a debate which for
years centered In the Princeton Theo-
logical Seminary. Action was deferred
for a year on report which proposed
consolidation OF the administration OF
the institution under one board.
The assembly voted petition TO the
national political conventions demand

ITALY AND TURKEY
SIGN PACT today
Treaty Represents Notable
Political and Economic Gains
for Rome in the Levant.
BY Carroll BINDER.

| By Radio 10 The Star and Chicago Daily
News. Copyright. 1923.
ROME. May 30.-There is profound
satisfaction here over what are regard
ed as important advances in Italian
power and prestige in Europe. Today
/ Italy and Turkey we're scheduled to
sign an important treaty. While the
precise contents of the treaty have not
yet been made public, the pact certain
ly represents notable political and
economic gains for Italy in the Levant.
Unsettled political conditions in
Greece prevented inclusion of that
country as third party in a non-ag-
greSsion tripartite treaty. In fact, re-
symptom of political activity by Premier
Venizelos, who is deemed here to be
pro-French and anti-Italian, suggests
that an Italo-Greek treaty may be de-
layed indefinitely.
Loan Demands Treaty.
But both Turkey and Italy may be ex-
pected to bring Greece within the new
political orbit. Meantime 1t seems GER
tain that Italo-Jugoslav relations are
being adjusted on a satisfactory basis
for Italy. At the moment students in
all parts Of Italy are demonstrating
against the Jugoslavs for reported In
suits to italian consulates and Italian
firms in Jugoslavia, but these manifes-
tations must not be given excessive i'm
portance.
The decision of the Jugoslav gov
eminent to ratify the Nettuno conven-
tions, which are favorable to Italy, in
dicates a satisfactory understanding be-
tween the governments. 1t is believed
here that English bankers stipulated an
Italo-Jugoslav accord as condition
for granting the loan which Jugoslavia
desires. so it is assumed that the treaty
expiring June 80 will be renewed.
Italy's claims for fuller participation
in the government of Tangier were
satisfactorily recognized at Paris, and
the FaScists feel that their prestige as
a Mediterranean power Is steadily as
cending.
Anti-Fascist Activities.
The only unpleasant aspect noted by
the FaScists is the fresh wave OF anti
Fascist manifestation abroad. Such
episodes as the bombing of the consulate
at Buenos Aires and protest meetings
in various parts of Europe and South
America are taken as Communist ac-
tivity. The alleged executive commit
tee Of the Communist party in Italy Is
being tried before special tribunal
here.
Almost nothing Is said In the press
about police developments in connec-
ton with the recent Milan bombing,
but the government attitude Is that
both the Milan and foreign episodes
have a common anti-Fascist insptra-
ton.
