Here We Are- For Friday I t With a Phenomenal Purchase and ALE OF WOMEN ME DARDANELLES TO BE FREE SMYRNA OWNERSHIP Premier Millerand Expresses Re gret Because America Not Co operating in, Turkish Treaty. PARIS, April 22. The allied su preme council this morning contin ued its elaboratiou of the treaty with Turkey, which it 'is believed will be finished today, according to the San P.emo correspondent of the Havaa agency. Having in mind the reser vations formulated by President Wil son in his note of last month, the correspondent says, the council de cided not to allocate immediately and definitely the Smyrna wedge to Greece. In view of the fact that the im portation of the Mohammedan ele ment, especially since the war, has obliged many Greeks to "quit the ter ritory, a plebiscite will be held a few years hence to determine the final disposition of the region. League t Receive Complaints. With regard to the protection of minorities, the correspondent contin ues, the Ottoman government will be compelled to pledge itself to respect the different beliefs. Kvery act con trary to neutrality in this respect will be considered by the co-contracting powers as a violation of the treaty and may lead to military repression. Representatives of the league of na tions will be installed in Constanti nople to receive the complaints of the minorities, if there are any. The receipt of the German note asking permission for the mainte nance of an army of 200,000 minimum strength has produced a lively im pression on the members of the coun cil. In Italian and British circles, however, it did not seem to cause Sur prise and even appeared to be favor ably regarded. The German appeal, in fact, ac cords with ideas already expressed by the chief of the Italian govern ment. The opinion expressed in Krench circles is that if. In view of the danger of bolshevlsm, this de mand is granted, France ought to re ceive1 guarantees against any attempt at revenge on the part of Germany. Germany Not Invited, The San Remo correspondent of the Matin says he has been informed that the propositions wf Premiers Mttl and Lloyd George on the ques tion of dealing with Germany cul minated in a suggestion that Ger many be invited to take part in the conference here. However, adds the correspondent. Premier Millerand ultimately con vinced the Italian and British pre miers that they were wrong and it was decided to confine discussion of the German problem to the supreme council. Premier Receives Correspondents. SAN REMO, April 22. (By the As sociated Press.) Alexander Millerand. the French premier, today .received the American newspaper correspon ents, of whom 11 are here, and talked freely about peace conference affairs. "Our friendship with the- American people," he said, "did not begin with 1914, but very long before that, and before you brought us the decisive . help in the war, which now is such a precious recollection. "I regret that we could not have the direct active co-operation of the .United States government In the preparation of the Turkish treaty here, but I am sure America will not stand apart always from European affairs. I regret much more that the United States does not participate in me aiscussion of uermany s treat ment of the treaty of Versailles, wnicn will De considered tomorrow." Dardanelles Made Free. Control of the Dardanelles will be exercised by two international com missions, according to plans of the supreme council announced today. One of these will regulate traffic, fix dues for the use of the straits' and super vise affairs generally. The other will be a military com mission, having at its disposition forces which will be located on the Gallipoli peninsula and on the other side of the straits. The passage of these straits will be declared to be forever free to the world's shipping during either peace or war. It does not appear that the United States will be represented on the commissions. Erzeroum Given to Armenia. The afternoon session of the coun cil was devoted to the Turkish treaty. After hearing the statement of the , Armenian delegation, the conference gave Erzeroum to Armenia. The control of Constantinople was taken up, and the project recently ad vanced from London for a high com mission composed of England, France and Italy was considered. The advance of the bolshevik! forces on Batoum was also taken up. The military experts gave it as their opinion that the bolshevik! were too strong for the forces at Batoum, which should be evacuated. The English and French represen tatives opposed the suggestion, point ing out that Batoum was indispens able as an outlet from Armenia, Georgia and . Erzeroum, from which the allies , were receiving important supplies of oil and manganese. France, it was brought out. espe cially opposed it because Batoum is the outlet for a pipeline from the Baku oil fields, which is essential to France.
