The accord represents a victory for the United States where repre- sentitive Joseph C. Grew, minister to Switzerland, was successful itt? his insistence that the policy of the open door and equal opportunity in the Near East be adopted. Had it not been for Grew's tena- ity the tentative agreement made last week unfavorable to the United States interests would have been included in the’ treaty. Through numerous conferences with Ismet Pasha, head of the Turkish delega- , Mr. Grew won him ° over inst the plea of British and French plenipotentiaries. Oil Big Question And having won their struggle to eliminate from the peace treaty all future preferential concession rights for foreign companies and all offi- cial confirmation of doubtful exist- ing concessions, the American rep- resentatives will now devote them- to completion of a new Tur- kish-American treaty. The inside story of the meeting yesterday is of a fierce battle wag- ed over the question of the oil fields of Mesopotamia which the English claim under the provisions of con- cessions of the Turkish petroleum company. Though none of the American del- egation was present it was apparent that American inflyence was domin- ant in the conference chamber and that the insistence of Mr. Grew was strong enough to permit Ismet Pas- ha to hold out to the finish. Ismet Pasha was unshakable be- fore all the allied onslaughts. One by one he turned down every for- mula presented, even those modified, which he calculated would give any confirmation to the British petrol- eum plea. Allies Surrender Finally the allies, led by the Brit- ish, surrendered but the British an- nounced their intention to make public a statement at the open con- ference meeting making public their rights in the oil fields just as the French intend to do regarding their rights concerning the Turkish debt. The gist of the general agreement is that the treaty will not. confirm the British Petroleum Company's \voncessions and the allies drop their claim to preferentihl rights to Tur- kish concessions. Under the Straits concession the allies agreed pending the establishment of a permanent regime not to keep two warships each in' ther Straits. Turkey agreed to?maintdin free access to the Black Sea and\\to invite each of the great powers to station one warship in the Dardanelles. The United States is not included in the Straits agree- ment but ‘i#'i¢2presumed that Amer- ican warshijs wilijibe free to tra- verse the Straits up to the limit the United States itself nets.

ALASKA NOT ALLICEBERGS, PASTOR SAYS Seldom Gets Below Zero in Petersburgh, Rev. Flint Tells Friends Here ® It seldom gets below zero in Pet- ersburgh, Alaska, Rev. John Flint, former pastor of the Trinity Luther- an church} told friends here last night in a talk at the courthouse. The coldest last winter was 16 be- low. Alagka, Rev.
