THE MORNING OREGONIAN, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 6. 1923 2 GREEK DELEGATES WAIT MUCH Dissatisfaction With Pact Is Expressed. TERMS ARE REVEALED Exact Status of American Consul General to Be Taken ITp by Angora Assembly. SMYRNA. Oct. 5. (By the Asso ciated Press.) The agreement reached at the Mudania. conference between the allied and Turkish del egates, according to Mudania mes sages received here, was communi cated to the Greek delegates, who expressed dissatisfaction with It, de claring themselves not empowered to reply and that they must havt instructions from Athens. The messages etated'the agree ment provides that the allies and Turks are to evacuate the neutral region of the Dardanelles; that the allies will Continue their occupa tion of Constantinople during the peace conference and that they ac cept the re-establishment of the na tionalist civil government in the de partments ot Constantinople and Chanak. Thrace Evacuation Fixed. . The advices stated that further , terms were that the Greeks are to evacuate Thrace within nine days after the decision is communicated to Athens, and that the nationalist troops are to occupy eastern Thrace, but that a zone of 10 kilometers on each bank of the Maritza shall be r.eutralized and occupied by the allies with the nationalists immed iately to administer Thrace. In case of Greek opposition the agreement provides, the dispatches declare, that the allies are to permit Turkish troops to occupy eastern Thrace militarily, while the allies take diplomatic and other measures to compel the Athens government to accept the terms. Statu of U. S. Envoy Is Up. The exact status of the American consulate-general here will come before the national assembly at Angora this week for discussion. It has been a matter of increas ing importance, owing to the desire of the consular officers to visit the Turkish prison camps to ascertain whether any American citizens are among the Greek civilians rounded up in Smyrna and vicinity. At least 50 of such alleged cases have been reported to the consulate or the relief committee and it is important that the complainants be found before their deportation into the interior where they wonld be difficult to trace. The question at issue is whether the American consular officials, previously accredited to the Greek regime, shall automatically assume a similar relation to the new gov ernment. Vice-Consul Barnes conferred in formally with the Turkish national ist premier during the latter's visit here but the minister declined to make a ruling. Official Bnntness Conducted. Meanwhile the consulate-general is conducting its official business with the vail or governor, through its dragoman. The 60 Americans said to be con fined In Turkish prison camps are virtually ell naturalized citizens whose exact status in most cases will require much investigation both here and in Washington as their passports and other papers are gone and the question invariably arises whether they have forfeited their citizenship by residence of more than two years abroad. Most of these applicants speak fluent English; they fought for a year or more in the American army in France and then obtained their discharge for the purpose of visit ing Greece. "It seems a very unjust law which would take awak their prized citi zenship from men who have freely risked their lives in defense of the American flag." declared Chairman Griswold of the relief committee.

It was, sent by ship's radio and said with reference to Thursday's proceedings that the conference had adjourned. It asked for instructions. The dispatch arrived in a very imperfect state, the conclusion of it being altogether missing. It was sufficiently obvious, however, that a very unsatisfactory state of things had developed at Mudania and the premier hurriedly summoned a late meeting of-the cabinet. The ministers met at 11 o'clock, and after a long and earnest dis cussion decided that General Har ington's dispatch was too mutilated to allow of taking a final decision thereon. They accordingly decided to send an urgent message to him at Constantinople, where he stated he had gone, asking for repetition of the dispatch and requesting him to remain in Constantinople pending receipt of further instructions. The cabinet then separated. General Haringtons repetition Is expected to reach here some time during the night, and if it does the ministers -will reassemble Friday morning to prepare instructions.
