Rear Admiral Mark Lambert Bristol has a businesslike way of getting along with Turks. The State Department published, last week, some notes exchanged between the Admiral, as High Commissioner to Turkey, and the Turkish Foreign Minister, oily, wiley, bespectacled Tewfik Rushdi Bey. The notes continue, by avowed mutual consent, the modus vivendi between the U. S. and Turkish State Departments which has to be patched up from time to time, because the U. S.

Conference" at Odessa (TIME, Nov. 22) between Turkish Foreign Minister Tewfik Rushdi Bey and Soviet Foreign Minister Georg Tchitcherin came to a most amiable close last week amid continued, portentous secrecy. As he took ship to sail across the Black Sea to Constantinople, the swarthy dandified Tewfik Rushdi Bey assured newsgatherers that Turkey and the Soviets are now in diplomatic concord, adding darkly: "Turkey does not favor any Western state to the detriment of any Eastern state. . . ." With Tewfik Rushdi Bey gone, M. Tchitcherin, still less communicative, tarried not in Odessa. Bundled...
