It declares that the Turks agree that - great morifices are necessary for the preservation of proce. They accept the Western frontier as proposed by the Allies and in order to testify their goodwill do not insist on obtaining Karagatah and the railway thence to Kalelibargas and Demolika.

She proposes consequently the con- clusion of pense affixing migustares at the fook of essential questions whereon agreement has been reached, negotiations to continue by part of the delegations in regard to questions remaining in suspense.
