GREECE OPPOSES PLAN frcmior Vrnlaeios Reported in Ap peal to Wilson to Settle Territorial Dispute. Pub- BV LINCOLN EYP.E. fCoprricht by the Xew York World. linu tty arrungrnienl.1 PARIS. Au. 15. (Special cable.) A complete deadlock set In at the peace ronference regarding Thrace. After months of discussion the American peace mission is attempting to solve the delicabe problem by proposing the division of Thrace between Bulgaria and Gree. while one strip would re main independent under the protection of the league of nations It has been suggested that this strip should be called Wilsonia, if the Ameri can plans work out. So far Greece i opposed to the division of Thrace. The United States mission's plan that the territory of Thraoe from th Creek frontier to the east to Xanth (Turkey In Kurope) and from th Aegean sea on the south to the Bui ear-Ian frontier should be shared by Bulgaria and Greece, the former re civing the northern portion, the lat ter the southern. The remaining; two thirds of Thrace would make up in dependent Wilsonia. Custtf l Define. This new country's boundaries would follow the course of the Maritza and Krgune rivers to Lule-Burgaa a to in Turkey) then turning off to the northwest as far as the Bulgarian frontier for its eastern line and on the west, would have the division line mentioned above. r me remainder of Thrace south or tne Lrgene river, east of the -Marlt nu south of Lule-Burzas. the Mirli.n line would be under the protection of me power having- the mandate over Constantinople. tireece's objections to the division of tnis region are based on ethnic, eco nomic, geographical and historical rea eons. Jn furthering these objections lireece points out that, under this plan, the Creek portion of the Black sea would De cut off from the rest of the country and would have no outlet on the Aegean. Premier Venizelos. in his counter pro position puts forward other plans which would give satisfaction to Bulgaria by allowing her independent access to the sea. His memorandum also points out that In Thrace are 329,000 Greeks to 7no Bulbars and 4:.000 Turks. Premier Venizelos states that the majority of the Turks want Thrace to be attached to Oreece. Veaiseloa Makes Proposal. Another proposition contained in the report of Premier Venizoloa is that If Thrace is attached to Greece she would make Peds-Ajratch (Turkey in Europe, ten miles northwest of the mouth of hs Maritza and the terminus of a branch of the Belgrade-Constantinople railway) a free port under the super vision of the league of nations, and connect It to Bulgaria by an interna tionalize d rail road. Bulgaria would also have an outlet on the Aegean free fro mall control of Greece. In reply to the Greek premier the United States delegation points out that taking away from Bulgaria the parts of Thrace which she got after the war of 1913 would be dangerous and possibly would lead to further Balkan wars. Allies aesrf f;reeee. The other allied delegations. France. Great Britain and Italy, support Greece morally. It was learned that Premier Venizo loa has appealed to President Wilson to solve the question of Thrace and that he sent a detailed report on the matter to the president. It would ap pear hat Venizoloa decided to ask Mr. llson to use his Influence when ad vices reached Paris to the effect that conrres bitterly criticised America's policy In appearing to support Bul- garta s claim to Thrace. This highly Important question Is holding up the compjetion of the peace treaty with Bulgaria as well as that with Turkey.
