SUNDAY S;I‘AR. WASHINGTO | United States 1n June 1780, ordered all French commanding officers ‘to render not only to Gen. Washington, but also to the President of Congress the honors of a marshal of France.' It is probable that this order and the fact that the French Gen. Rochambeau was placed under Washington's or- ders gave rise to the belief that the title of marshal was effectively con- ferred upon our Commander-in-chief.” (Comte De Rochambeau was sent in 1780 with the rank of lieutenant general, to command 6,000 French troops to assist the American colo- nists under Gen. Washington, against the English.) ‘Women Lose Immumty Women traveling between Cunada and the United States will now be searched at some of the customs points by woman inspectors.

TURKEY CONDITIONS ENTRY INTO LEAGUE Requires Satisfactory Settlement of Mosul Boundary Dispute Prior to Membership. By Cable to The Star and New York World. GENEVA, July 4.—Turkey's offer to join the League of Nations next September includes a reservation making that country's membership contingent upon a satisfactory settle- ment of the Mosul boundary dispute, according _to authoritative infor- mation. The conditional proposal has created considerable resentment among leagle circles, where it is felt that Angora, having failed in an at tempt to negotiate independently with Great Britain, now seeks indi. rectly to imfluence the council’s arbi tration proceedings.

The crux of the problem lies in the final disposition of Mosul village, which the British regard as even more important than the boun- darfes for the oil zone. The Turks have intimated that restoration the village to Turkish dominion is essential before an acceptable com- promise can be reached. It {s understood the commission be lieves the partition of Mosul village to be undesirable, fesling that either Britaln or Turkey must have the town outright. (Copyright. 1925.)
