ALLIES AGREE ON TURKISH POLICY Paris —France, Great Britain and Naly have signed a tripartite agree- ment in which they agree to support other in maintaining their “spheres of influence” in Turkey. The limits of the areas in which the re- spective special interests of France | and Italy are recognized are defined by the same document. In connection with examination of the text of the agreement attention is being called here to the fact that while the treaty defines the spheres of in- fluence of France and Italy—recogniz- ing the special interests of France in Cilicia and the western part of Kurdi- stan, bordering on Syria, and of Italy in southern Anatolla—the British spheres of influence are not only un- defined but are not mentioned. This has raised the question of whether the agreement is susceptible of the in- terpretation that the British interests may be held to extend to any or all the remaining parts of the Turkish cmpire, It is noted, also, that while the agreement does not take the form of an alliance, it pledges the contract- ing powers to “render diplomatic support to each other in maintaining their respective positions in the areas in which their interests are recog- nized.”, BRIEF GENERAL NEWS Population of Alaska has decreased by 9638, or 14.9 per cent, in the last decade.
