125. Further reference to last sentence your no. 48, December 15, 3 p.m. The peace treaty between Turkey and the Allies will probably include the various changes in the old system of capitulations. It is likely that these changes will serve as a basis for the separate treaties which Turkey will later enter into with the other American and European countries. At present it does not appear that in this connection we will be asked to sign any separate instrument.
