America Granted
Right of Straits
H at Lausanne Meet
United States Will Receive All
Privileges Without Signing
Convention With Turk
ish Government.
By Associated Preen.
Uausa"nne, July 28.—The American
nr 4 Turkish experts reached an
n'-'*eni*'iit tonight, whereby the
United States receives the most fav
ored nation treatment concerning the
f.tvdom of the straits for merchant
men and warships. The United
States, without s gning the straits
convention, will receive all privileges.
AJso it will be restricted by all
limitation* imposed by that conven
tion. which g.ves each signatory the
right to maintain their ships, not ex
ceeding 10,000 tons each, In the
straits. Tehre Is a substituting
privilege, that each power may have
as many ships there as are possessed
by any country bordering on the
Black sea. This, of course, Includes
Bussia, whiah has decided to adhere
to the straits treaty.
The clause in the Turco-American
treaty covering these questions does
not go into details on the regulations
code set forth in the straits conven
tion, but refers to them in blanket
form.
Another , portant matter ag eed on,
was that concerning the collection of
taxes on American companies and
American individuals resident in Tur
key. A declaration in the treaty will
apply the provisions contained in the
allies treaty. From May 15 of this
year, Turkey engaged not to collect
bade taxes. If, however, any back
^jd-xes have boon paid, Americans con
not claim a refund.
Another meeting of the experts will
, he held Sunday. Both Ismet Pasha
and Joseph C. Grow probably will re
quire additional advices from Angora
and Washington, respectively, before
they are able to eonrlude the un
settled points, namely, assurance con
cerning the protection of Christian
populations In Turkey and the ques
tion of claims for damages suffered
in- Americans in Turkey during the
war.

veying party of 10 men, will set out

tigation of the possibilities of develop
ing the waters of the river for irri
gation and lessening the flood danger
to the Imperial valley.
That part of the river's course
which will be gone over is crowded
with rapids and swirls between steep
rock banks. It has been traversed
only six times. The boats which
will make the journey were designed
to stand the ruck and strain and each
member of the party will wear a life
preserver.
C. H. Birdseye, chief topographic
engineer of the geological survey,
will have charge of the work. Dam
sites will be inspected and the whole
region will be mapped and photo
graphed.

maps have been obtnined of the other
1,200 miles of the stream. In 1860.

through 1,000 miles of the river, dis

on Disappearance Clause
Lincoln. July 28.—In the supreme
court today attrd’neys for the Modern
Woodmen of America fraternal order
defended a clause contained In Its
benefit certificates which provides
that when a member disappears his
beneficiaries must continue paying
assessments for the term of natural
life of the member before collection
can be mode on the certificate.
The attorneys said the adoption
of the bylaw to this effect and the
action of the supreme court of Illinois
from which state the order secured
Its charter. In holding the bylaw
legal, makes It lmpossil le for the
beneficiaries to invoke the old rule
that after seven years have passed
