Convinced of the strength | of his position, Abdul-Mejid is quietly expecting concrete proposals from the Moslem world, including his own com- | patriots. It is understood fhat the suggestion put forward in French quarters that a solution of the difficulty could be found in each separate community ap- pointing its own Caliph, would be con- trary to the Koranic law and there- | fore uglikely to be realized. The chances of King Hussein of the | Hediaz becoming Caliph of the whole Moslem community throughout the world are not taken seriously in Turk- | ish circles. The deposed Caliph is| pleased with the attitude adepted by | a section of the Egyptian ulema, | which has pronounced in favor of his | retention of the Caliphate. The views of the Indian Moslems are not yet known, but steps are be- ing taken to ascertain what the feel- ing is of the largest Moslem commun- ity in the world. The recent decision of the Persian ecglesiastics that the institution of a republican regime in Persin would be contrary to Moham- medan law naturally has created a good impression among the Turkish exiles. The recent decision of the Angora | stage; | tenance posed Caliph's subsidy owing to his recent manifesto to the Moslem world is confirmed. This, however, does not seem to be affecting his party, which eels that the Moslem communities will see to it that the deposed Caliph |is not left in. pecuniary difficulties. On the contrary, it is felt that by issu- ing his manifesto Abdul-Mejid has rendered a service to the Moslem world. | {9-MILE LIMIT TREATY Between England and United States ‘ Led Free State to Back Agreements, | Dublin, May 23.—The prolonged de- bates in the Dail on the liquor treaty between Great Britain and the United States brought out the fact that dur- ing the progress of the negotiations the Free State was consulted at every that it had some influence in modifying the proposals originally made, and that Sif Auckland Geddes' | signature was on hehalf of the Free | State as well as of Britain. There was not in any section of the Dail any op- position to the terms of the treaty iteelf. The Labor party, which voted solid- Iy against endorsing the treaty, made plain that its objections were on con- | stitutional grounds, and did not imply any hostility to the treaty itself or any sympathy with the bootlegger. | There was unanimity that it was Ire- | Jand’s duty to aid the United tSates | in every way, and there were several | pronouncements regretting the main- | of the three-mile limit and | approving its extension to 12 miles. | The extension of the limit is in the | interest of the Irish, and would help to protect the Irish fisheries against | the growing attentions o National Assembly to suppress the de- rheumatism. | one underneath, Gulbrensen Trade Mark I\ prese¢ your consideration asa ¥ A Boater Straw brim and low crown pronounces vou fashion right this season. $3 $4 $5 trawlers. with wide the GULBRANSEN REGISTERING PIANO or the VICTROLA for Musical Instrument for your Home, we offer you the Highest Grade Merchandise in the market, priced considerably less than a “Just as Good” make, guaranteed to funetion any time you may We {ea ", assurin i vou complete satisfaction.
