Jsmat Pasha Will Give Foreign Nations
Letters Of Assurance On
8ubject
i Lausanne.—The question of the
fltatus of foreign, religious, education
al and charitable Institutions in Tur
key, which is of special importance
to the United States because of the
numerous American schools, hospitals
And churches on Turkish soil, was
definitely settled by the Near East
conference. The pllles agreed to ac
cept separate letters from Ismet Pasha,
the Turkish foreign minister, to the
heads of the British, French and Ital
ian delegations, recognizing Buch for
eign institutions and the special char
acter of the foreign schools. Ismet re
fused to insert his recognition in the
treaty itself, as he deemed such a step
incompatible with Turkish national dig
nity.
. Ismet is expected to give Joseph C.
Grew, American minister to Switzer
land, who represents tho United
States here, a similar letter of assur
ance on this subject when the present
informal conversations between the
Americans and tho Turks are trans
formed into official negotiations.
, Ismot’s lettors will recognizo the in
stitutions founded before October,
1924, and express Turkey’s intention
benevolently to examine the status of
institutions established from the out
break of the war to the Blgning of tho
treaty here.
One hundred and fifty prominent
Turkish Moslems, Including, probably
former Sultan Mohammed VI, will be
come men without a country under a
decision of the conference which ac
cepted a demand from the new Turk
ish government for a protocol author
izing tho banishment of a number of
political leaders ar.d confiscation of
their proporty as traitors. A list of
the men to bo banished is to bo deliv
ered to tho conference by Ismet Pasha.
Allied spokesman declared they
agreed to the proposal In order to
safeguard tho whole project of am
nesty for tho Christians in Asia
Minor.
The allies as a further concession
agreed to liberate all Turks arrested
up to the opening of tho conference.

PRODUCTIONJEAR MAXIMUM
Announcement Of Curtailment By
New England Cotton Mills Only
Exception To Trend
New York.—With speculative senti
ment still unsettled and with com
modity prices still showing much ir
regularity, reports received In busi
ness quarters during the past week
Indicate production Is continuing to
go ahead at a rate close to the maxi
mum. The latest figures for loadings
of railroad cars, those for the week
ending April 28, showed a total of
964,000 cars, which sets a new high
record since the middle of last No
vember, and is only 6 per cent below
the greatest weekly movement in pros
perity. The week’s loadings establish
an entirely new record for this sea
son of the year. Unusually heavy
shipments of merchandise and miscel
laneous freights were, furthermore,
responsible for the larger part of the
gain.
Additional evidence of sustained in
dustrial activity Is furnished by the
steel Industry. Although the tenden
cy toward afalllng off in forward 1
buying has continued, output has. if
anything, increased. The United
StateB Steel corpoi-ation for example,
is reported to be working its plant
at 97' por cent capacity. Conaump
tion of steel also seems to be going
on at a higher rate. With the mills
working at ao high a rate, they natur
ally are catching up on orders, and
with new forward buying held some
what in abeyance, are able to offer
prompter deliveries. As a result, pre
mium prices have disappeared to
large degree. On the other han-1, the
mills also are working off old con
tracts taken at lower prices, so lb at
the average contract price of the ma
terial being delivered is rising.
An exception to the general trend
is offered by textile industry where
curtailments have been announced by
a few New England cotton mills.
While these announcements have had
a depressing efffect on the price of
the raw material they probably do
nt orepresent any great falling off in
the aggregate production of cctton
cloth.
Even cotton prlceo appear to have
moved more in response to the general
tenor of speaul-iri *e sentiment than to
th.e position ip this particular indus
try. All of the markets in which the
speculative tempo.- plays a part have
continued to spew distinctly sympa
thetic movements. After a sharp drive
at the start of the past week the gear'
party clearly covered short sommii-
ments on an extensive scale. Sharp
advances resulted, but only a moder
ate amount of new buying seemed to
he attracted. As the week closed the
shorts started another active selling
movement and succeeded in forcing
good-sized declines.
