DAWN-TO-DUSK FLYER WRECKS PLANE IN CRASH IGREEMENT “0 WET. TERNS |S REACHED TODAY Signature of Pact Seen At Lausanne Meeting Withmn Ten Days. LAUSANNE, July 9.— (By The Associated Press.) — Is- met Pasha has proved himself 2 great diplomat, forthe Near Eastern peace which was ar- ranged in principle between the Allied and Turkish representatives early today he achteved signal vic- tories for his country. He never relinquished his grasp on the delicate situations that often con- fronted the conference. He was better than the brilliant Marquis Cufzon. in the first stage of the negotiations and kept all thé skilled diplomats guessing from the start. He smiied always but peldom, if ever, did he yield. ‘the Augora government must stffl ‘be consulted on several points con- serning allied concessions in Turkey, but everybody at Lausanne believes ‘that peace will surely be signed within ten days. The. great result of the Lausanne peace, as seen by the diplomats here, 4s that one of the most serious dan- gers to the happiness of the cont!- nent has been removed by the liquida- tion of the state of war in the Near East and by the agreement of Tur- key and Greece to lny-down— their arms at last. European troops will evacuate Turkish soll and Turkey, with her new type of government ‘will be free to fashion her destiny un- fettered by European domination. "Peace! Peace! Tell it to the whole world!” ‘These were the words of the Turk. {sh leader as he emerged from the génference hall. brate the success of the negotiations which began last November, only to be interrupted in February by a sen- kational colapse over questions which today were settled. Turkey won a succession of victor- Yes throughout the conference. In the first place she obtained abolition of capitulations, a step which it took Japan long years to accomplish. In the second place, Turkey, by her re- entry into eastern Thrace, comes back into.Europe. France, on the question of the Mttoman debt, which she wanted put into the treaty to conserve the rights of her numerous bondholders, made a sacrifice in order to hold fast Great Britain and Italy on the near Eastern problems and to attain peace. As the pact now stands, it contains no ref- erence to Turkey’s debt but the alli wil declare that the debt contract can- not be modified except by mutual agreement between Turkey and the bondholders, with whom she must er- deavor to negotiate a moratorium for the payment of interest. American views on the question of concessions have been respected by a modifica- tion of the protocol covering this im- portant point. wos re SOLDIERS 10 APPEAR AT THE STATE FAIR WASHINGTON, July 9.—Congress- man Winter has addressed the secre- tary of war, at the request of the State Fair board, urging action on the request for a detail of soldiers from Fort Russell to make the annual hike to the state fair this year.

RATIFY TREATY Agreements Negotiated at Washington Conference Win Unanimous Okeh of Chamber of Deputies PARIS, July 9.—(By The Associated Press.) — The chamber of deputies today unanimously approved the Wash- ington treaties relating to the Pacific. The chamber passed.a bill approving the treaty conclud- ed on December 12, 1921, by France, the United States, Great in-and Japan, covering their island possessions in the Pacific, ‘and the declaration adopted on the same date relating to the Paci- fic mandates, Tt also accepted the complementary agreement made in Washington on February 6, 1922, in which application of the treaty was precisely defined as it concerns Japan. On Saturday the chamber approved the Washington agreement on naval limitations, Both treaties now go to the senat In today’s debate, Deputy Archim- baud, socialist-radical, said the presi- dent of the United States had ex- pressed remarks “‘very unfortunate, not to say unfriendly to France.” ‘The vote on the naval treaty Sat- urday was 460 to 106. When the question of ratifying the conventions relating to the Pacific came up today, Deputy Archimbaud, socialist-radical, said he and his friends would vote for the bill, not because France would obtain any great benefit from St, but because the treaties con- stituted a perceptible effort by four great nations toward peace, and would strengthen the chances of peace in the Pacific. | He congratulated Albert Sarraut, minister for the Colonies, French Delegate to the Washington cenference for the efforts he hxd made to transform the Pacific pact which originally was to have been signed by the United States, Great Britain and Japan into a four power treaty. M. Sarratt said he had been much aided by the United States in attain- ing the object, that country never having ceased to show a desire that the treaty should be signed by all four powers. “If I may judge by the message sent by President Harding to the Senate on that occasion,” rejoined Deputy Archimbaud, “I hardly gather the same impression, and I consider that the president of the United States expressed in that message re- marks very unfortunate, not to say unfriendly to France.” i ‘The deputy added that the presi- dent's message contained allusions far from favorable to the Versailles treaty, M. Sarraut refused to admit of this interpretation, and premier Poincare ALASKAN PORTS ARE REACHED BY ABOARD THE U. 8S. 8. HENDER- 85ON WITH PRESIDENT HARDING, July 9.
