    The document discusses the French reaction to reports that the Turkish government ratified an American concession led by Chester that included development projects. This angers the French as they believe it nullifies their own prior concessions from the old Ottoman government for similar projects, such as developing the port of Samsun and constructing railroads. One French newspaper calls for the Americans to be protested after "using the French, the Turks turn to Americans." The concession led by Chester had been waited on for 20 years.

    PARIS, April 10. -- The report of the ratification by the Angora Assembly of the Chester concession turns the attention of Paris again to the fact that this concession includes projects for which the French hold concessions from the old Ottoman Government. That for the development of the Port of Samsun is one illustration; that for the construction of several railroads is another.
