Since 1920 Are Cancelled. Constantinople, Nov. 3.—(By As- scclated Press.)—The Angora assem- bly last night decided unanimously that it is jnvested with sovereign rights and: that the Turkish national- ist government is the keystone of the caliphate and today the newspapers carry ‘these headlines: “Ottoman empire collapsed, in its place there has arisen new national Turkish state—Sultanate abolished.” The decision of the assembly was gnnounced by a salute of 101 guns. Ihmediately the soldiers and eivil- jans ‘began to celebrate the occasion to the blare of military bands and the bright flares of torch bearers. Two Resolutions Passed. Two resolutions were unanimously adopted by the assemblys The first said that sovereign rights had been vested in an alienable and indivisible manner in the moral person of the Angora assembly which was the oniy emanation of the nation. The second resolution declared the caliphate was vested in the imperial family of the Osman dynasty, but that the Turkish government remains the keystone of the caliphate. \ The selection of the caliphs {s to be made by the grand national as- sembly of Turkey which will choose {hat member of the imperial family, the resolution provides, who is the best instructed, the hest educated, the most honest and the @yisest. % Holiday Is Declared. After these resolutions had heen vnanimously accepted amidst ap- plause, Premier Reouf Bey ascend- ed the tribune and proposed the proc- lamation of a national holiday on the anniversary of the reaching of this decision, ‘ The decision’ of the Angora assem- bly was made known in the following terms: Formal Repudiation, “The palace of the Sublime Porte, having through corrupt ignorance for several centuries provoked numerous lls for the country, has passed into the domain of history. Recently the Turkish nation, the real mjstress of its destinies, the founder of the Otta- man empire, revolted against its for- elgn enemiés in Anatolia and under- togk a stryggle against the palace of the Sublime Porte which took sides with its enemies and against the na- tion, and to that end it constituted the grand national assembly of Tur- key, its government, and its army threw itself into the struggle againat the ‘énemies from without and against the palace of the Sublime Porte, Terms of New Govt, "Today the era of liberation has at last. béen entered into. The Turkish nation, in view of the treason in the palace of the sublime porte, has pro- claimed its own organic statutq, “Article T of this statute stipulates that the sovereignty of the sultan s assumed by the nation. “By Article IT, executive and legis- lative powers are' conferred upon the nation. “‘Article VII invests the body ofjthe nation with sovereign rights, such as the right to declare war and con- clude peace. (These were formerly prerogatives of ‘the sultan.) “The Constaritinople government having made common cause with the enemy astounds us by speaking of the rights of the sultan and_ dynastic rights.

Qflu very much to justify a natiod-wide and most sincere testimony of grati- tude for the bounty which has been bestowed upon us,” President Hard- ing in the annual Thanksgiving proc- lamation issued today, calls upon the American people to observe Thursday, November 30, “as a day of Thanks- giving, supplication and devotion.” The text of the proclamation fol. lows: “In the beginning of our country, the custom was established py the de- vout fathers of observing @nnually a day of Thanksgiving for the bounties and protection which Divine Provi- dence had extended throughout the. year, It 'has come to be perhaps the most characteristic of our national observances and as the season ap-| proaches for its annual recurrence, it is fitting formally to direct attention to this ancient institution of our peo- ple and to call npon them again to unite in its appropriate celebration. “The year which now approaches its end has been marked in the ex- perience of our nation, by a com- plexity of trlals and triumphs, of dif- ficulties and of achievements, which we must regard as our inevitable por- tion in such an epoch as that through which all mankind is moving. As we survey experience of the passing 12 'months we shall find that our estate presents very much to justify a na- tion-wide and most sincere testimony of gratitude for the bounty which has been bestowed upon us. Though we have lived in the shadow of the hard consequences of great confliet, our country has heen at peace and has been able to contribute toward the maintenance and perpetuation of peace in the world. We have seen the race of mankind make gratifying progress on the way ' to permanent peace, toward order and restored con- fidence in its high destiny. “For the Divine guidance which has enahled us In growing fraternity with other. peoples, to attain so much of progress; for the bounteous yield which has come to us frot the re- sources of our soil and our ifidustry, we owe our tribute of gratitude and with it our acknowledgment of the duty and obligation to our own peo- ple and to the unfortunate, the suf- fering, the distracted of other Jands. et us in all humility acknowledge how great is our debt to the Provi- dence which has generously dealt with us and given devout assurance of unselfish purpose to play a helpful and ennobling part in human ad- vancement. It is much to be desired that in rendering homage for the blessings which have come to us we should earnestly testify our con- tinued and increasing aim to make our own great fortune a means of helping and serving, as best we can, the cause of all humanity. & “Now, therefore, I, Warren G. Harding, president of the United States®f America do designate Thurs- day the 30th day of November as a day of Thanksgiving, supplication and devotion. 1 recommend that the peo- ple gather at their family altars and in their houses of worship to render thanks to God for the bounties they have enjoyed and to petition that these may be continued in the year before ns."” - ) J a NEW B = wood street will observe birthday at her home tomorrow.
