TURKEY, BRITAIN MAKE AGREEMENT
Unite for Security in Medi- terranean; Terms to Be
 Named Monday

Istanbul, Turkey, May 6 - (U.P) A dispatch from Ankara, the cap- ital said today that Turkey ano Great Britain had effected an agree ment for collaboration to assure se- curity in the Mediterranean.
 Terms of the agreement will be announced simultaneously Monday at Ankara and in the House of Con- mons at London, 1t was added.
 Turkey and Great Britain have been negotiating for weeks on a security front agreement which would make Turkey the anchor na- tion of a powerful Balkan Black Sea combination against German Italian expansionism at the expense of smaller eastern and southeastern European nations.
 Vladimir Potemkin, Russian vice. commissar for foreign affairs, left Turkey hurriedly last night for Mos COW, on instructions from his gov- ernment. He has been negotiating with Sukru Saracoglu. Turkish For eign Minister, on the Black Sea pact. Turkey and Russia are firm friends.
 It was believed to be possible that the announcement of a Turkish British agreement might have im- portant repercussions as regards British Russian security front nego- tiations.
 Presumably, Potemkin was advised of the imminence of a British Turkish agreement, which in turn would be linked intimately with any British Russian agreement.
 Britain today forwarded to Russia new proposal on the security front based on Russian guarantees of sup. port to Poland and Rumania.

Smashing Climax To
 Trial Week By Upson
tcontinued from Page l,

which has sued MT. Leary for $600,- 900 as an "anti-Hayes, anti-Leary' group.
 Asked by Attorney Peck: Are you prejudiced against MT. Leary?" the witness replied: Honestly, I don't think so--not against Leary indi- vidually-but against the Demo- cratic party"
 Witness Is Surprise
 The calling of Upson to the stand was as surprising as his testimony, although he had been a witness before the grand jury last year. Upson denied that he knew of any personal records being taken from Leary's office in 1885, and also de- nied that he knew anything about any of Leary's personal effects get- ting into Pape's office.
 Attorney Thomas F. McDonough, during the arguments on the al- legged conference records said: "This case has reached a highly preju- dicial state. All this conversation is part of a political conference"
 The testimony of Upson was fre- quently interrupted by the objections of defense counsel, who claimed that the matter was not relevant.
 The 22nd week of the trial will open Tuesday with Miss Elsie Emanuelson of Deep River on the stand. She took the stand Thursday, but was released yesterday to make changes to a file of alleged records of missing invoices originally issued by the city of Waterbury.

 Shows Deposit Slips
 Stating that he intended to show that a special account was kept at the Waterbury Trust company for the payment of Purdie, in the name of Olsen, Alcorn showed five deposit slips in the name of Carl D. Olsen, special.
 One of the deposit slips for five cents was referred to by Alcorn as being the subject of some hilarity at it's introduction. But, he said, that slip was necessary to balance the account.
 "The inference is irresistible" he said, "that they attempted to black mail this witness into silence. That's what Purdie was here for-to get in- formation which was shown to Up- son, and he was told if anyone 'squealed" they would be exposed"
 Bitterly Opposed
 Under cross examination by Att torney Josiah Peck, Upson, who di- rected the Republican campaign in 1887 which resulted in the election of Sherwood L. Rowland, to succeed Controller Leary by B votes, ad- mitted that he has been bitterly op- posed to the Hayes and Leary party and that William J. Pape is of sirn- liar conscience.
