WAR CLASH
Emissary Sent to Ask. Mustapha
Kamal Not to Invade Neutral

. Aid Britain in Military Act.
SIMMABT THOX HEAR EAST
(By TJntffd Naw)
Britain's concentration of troops
in the vicinity of the Dardanelles
in order to prevent the threatened
invasion of Mualapha Kemal, Turk
ish Nationalist leader, was under
way. Transports bearing British
soldiery and artillery were has
te ed from various ports of the
East and Near East.
France, It was semi-offlclally
stated, will not fciant England's
request for military aid against
Kemal unless he commits an overt
act by Invading the neutral zone of
the Dardanelles. Tlx. French gov
ernment, furthermore, has moved
to prevent the threatened clash be
tween Great Britain and Turkish
forces by sending a representative
to Kemal: Smyrna headquarters to
attempt to Induce him not to in
vade the neutral sotie.
British troop uara entrenched at
strategic points in the Dardanelles
and battleships are hastening to re
inforce the Metliterrn.ean fleet.
One hundred and Lfty thousand
Fersons were killed 5n the Smyrna
fire and massacre, according to
latest estimates.
London. Sept. (U. P.) 7:4t
p. m.) The British empire Is ranking
preparations to defend the Dardanelles
melded, If France, Italy aad the Bal
kan states refuse assistance. It was
learned following a two hoar war eonn
ril of Lloyd George aad his ministers
at Downing street this evening.
Paris. Sept. 18. (U. P.) France
moved today' to present the threatened
clash between British troops and the
army of Mustapha Kemal.
It was authoritatively -stated that
the French government had decided to
dispatch Frank Bouillon to Kemal s
Smyrna camp in an attempt to induce
the Turkish leader not to invade the
Dardanelles neutral zone and to fore
go his reported plan of attacking Con
stantlnople. ,
Bouillon is France's outstanding
Near East authority, It was he .who
negotiated the Franco-KemaJlst treaty.
Only an - evert act ty Kemal can
draw military action from FranceVit
was eeml-offic tally declared here to
day. France may Intervene on the side of
the British If Kemal actually Invades
the neutral rone, but otherwise action
by France Is considered remote. Eng
land's request, for military assistance
has met with a cool reception in the
French press.
It was pointed out in semi-official
circles that when France . considered
independent action against Germany,
Engla'nd proved an obstacle.
England, by taking Independent ac
tion has now only acted, it was
stated, to widen the breach in British
French Near East policies.
Berlin. Sept. 18.--(By Radio) (U.
P.) Mustapha Kemal will not sanc
tion a Near East peace conference
with the allies unless the soviet gov
ernment gives Its consent.
Kemal has dispatched a message to
Tchltcherin, soviet foreign minister,
who is now here, wherein he declares
there will be no negotiations unless the
Soviets agree.
Russia demands that she be given
recognition in the, peace parley, at

SileV-9- fell' last night On a group of
very Modern folk writers from the
Atlantic coast avnd prominent men and
women of the Oregon country hunched
together on I a rock overhanging the
Columbia river near Lancaster's camp
west of Eagle creeks Aove them a
canopy of firs shut out the dimly il

Then, many hundreds Of feet below,
on Bradford Island, a red fire mad..a

Palestine, the ancient cradle and
sanctuary of three of the world's
greatest religions, recently has become
the pawn of conflicting political groups
of the world's great, powers and
bids fair to become the scene of one
of the greatest armed conflicts of
modern times. Fresh from this center
of world affairs comes the Rt. Rev.
Rennie Maclnnea, D. D.. bishop of Je
rusalem, and special representative of
the Archbishop of Canterbury, titular
head of the Episcopal Church of Eng.
land, to the triennial General Conven-
tion of the Episcopal church of the
United States.
Bishop Maclnnes arrived from the
East Sunday morning and will be of
ficially received by the house of blsh-J
ops in session at in Auanonum
Tuesday at 11 a. m. v
MESSAGE IMPORTANT
The message he bears from the
Archbishop of Canterbury , is a per
functory greeting from the " Episcopal
church of England.. Following close
ly upon the acceptance of the concor
dat offered to the Greek Catholic
church by the Episcopal church of
England, announced at The Auditorium
Saturday by the Rev. Dr. wuliam
Chauncey Ernhardt, the message of
greeting takes on a new significance
and is accepted as one of the most
important incidents of the convention.
Allegiance of the Anglican and Greek
orthodox churches will unite in a
strong bond of religious sympathy mil

In ' Russia, Asia Minor and the Bal

Maclnnis stated, and would have a
marked influence on " the future rela

SITUATION HOPELESS
Acceptance of the concordat was re

Bishop Maclnnis from. England and
he received his first assurance of the
acceptance from the story published

TO NEV ORLEANS
By unanimous vote of both houses Of
the Spiscopal General. Convention in
session here. New. Orleans was selected
this morning as the site for the 1925
triennial meeting.
Pittsburg had intended making a
lively contest for, the honor, but when
me aeatn or ineir Disnop, the Kt, Rev.
Cortlandt Whitehead, became known.
they decided to withdraw.
As a result, when the invitation of
New Orleans was presented before the
house of deputies the delegate from
Pittsburg seconded the motion and the
vote was unanimous. The bishops took
similar action a few minutes later.
LEFT TO DISCRETION
The rubric in the Book of Common
Prayer so far as it concerns the office
for the burial of the dead will be omit
ted so that the officiating Clergyman
may use his discretion in the selection
of prayers for .the malefactor, the on
baptized who are ex -communicate, or
have laid violent hands on themselves.
A resolution to this effect was adopted
by the house of deputies of the Episco
pal church thia morning after much de
bate. It had previously passed the
house of bishops.
Another topic, which called forth
much discussion was that of the re
duction of delegates to the house of
deputies, to make, the number include
three " clergy and three laymen " Instead
of four to represent each diocese at
the next convention.
HAD ONLY U DEPUTIES
, The , resolution was offered by . R.
C. Pruyn of Albany, N. T., who stated
that in the first convention there were
28 deputies and -that the number now
reaches over 600, making not-only an
unwieldy body for the work of legis
lation, but bringing a needless expense
upon parishes that pay the expenses
of the convention. . He stated that In
Portland conditions for the convention
meetings are excellent and -that It can
not be expected -that such, commodious
quarters may be had in any other city,
but nevertheless the house of deputies
is still too large a body to execute Its
work in the most effective manner.
'John Stewart Bryan of Richmond,
Va, also asked for a more compact
body,' saying in bis opinion "the house
of deputies, wae. organised to do the
work of the church and not to attend
a glorified camp . meeting," Others
maintained that the matter of the re
duction of 'deputies is-bound to come
as the activities of the church Increase.
' The matter, after-a somewhat heated
discussion, was put; to a vote and lost.
