Troops and warships aren't actually on the move yet, and there's still sufficient ground for hoping they won't he, in western Europe, as in the Xear East. To say that this isn't The deadlock. If it prov»» to be such, at Lausanne, Is over things: ICaoh Says Ollier Side I« Obstinate. 1. Morul. I. The "capitulation»." Mosul is a vilayet, province or state in Asiatic Turkey, on the Per sian frontier, about 400 miles esst of the island of Cypress, at the ex treme eastern end of the Medlter To this vilayet Englan< two ranean. received a "mandate" (that Is to say, was given the rulershlp) by ths league of Nations.

They repudiate the arrangement and de English refuse to' surrender It. "Capitulations," which In the present case relate to judicial mat ter* mean this: A - certain counfry or countries which have citiz?ns and Interests In some other country less Advanced, In their opinion, than themselves, refuse, so far as their citizens and interests are concern'd, to abide by that country's lawn or the deelsions of it* court*.

It used to prevail In Turkey, as It does still In China, but the Turks abolished It during the war. the allies. hacked by the fnited States, demand its re-establlshment. The Turks refuse. N Mosul'» Vast Oil Pepoalte. The Turk* say the Lausanne conference is tied up because Eng land is «o stubborn about Mosul. The allies say It is tied up because the Turks are so stubborn about the "capitulations.'' Without paying any compliment to the Turks, who are notoriously bad rulers, it must be said that there's one weakness in the other countries' position, to which disin terested observers haven't failed to cal! attention. Mosul is valuable because of It» vast oil deposits. The "capitula tlons are Important because of the outsiders' property Interests in Turkey. Kvery other laaue.

And the Americans, though only onlook er» at the conference, are giving moral support to this position. Th» sltu»t!on is so serious that th» Turks are concentrating troop* on th» border* of Mosul »nd the Eng !!«h «re ru*hlng warships to Turkish waters. The Greeks, hoping to profit by an outbreak of fighting, are mov ing military force* toward Thrace, in Europe, which both the Greeks and Turks claim. , The outlook is not hopelsas, but | very threatening. Seeking Economic Terms. Secretary of State Hughes has fin ally explained what the I'nlted States government I* trying to do toward improving the European economic situation. A* ha* been pointed out before, the central question Is: ■ How much Is Germany able to pay in the way of war damages? has b*#»n thrashed over j again and again by diplomats rep resenting the interested enquiries.
