Human nature not having changed
with last summers revolution, there
is trouble in Turkey Since the army
gave the constitution last year. it
was quite natural. says the Times,
that II should be the army that would
take It away this year. The constitu-
ton grants religious freedom, among
other blessed things. The army made
up OF Mohammedans, finds it doesn't
like religious freedom where that
involves no special privileges TO Mo-
hammedans, and that is one cause Of
mutiny.
This Is no cause for despairing of
the Turkish venture toward demo
cracy. Turkey has had mixture of
natural discordant elements to anal.

or New York City staggers under. 1t
will take time. centuries probably,
to combine into smooth working Or

Paris Strikers
Report for Work
in Large Numbers
Hundreds Present at Night Meeting
Show Up Rather Than
Risk Jobs.

PARIS, March l6.-The general strike of
the telegraph, telephone and postal en-
ployes of the state. voted with so much en-
thusiasm last night is not turning out to-
day to be anything effective and unless
there should come some sudden change for
the worse II promises to be of short dura-
tion. An overwhelming majority of the
day shifts in all branches OF the service
reported for duty this morning Hundreds
OF men who were present at the meetings
last night apparently had concluded after
sleeping over the matter that they would
not risk the losing OF permanent employ
ment.
Nevertheless, the various services are
more or less crippled or demoralzed today.
The main defections occurred in the tele-
graph and railway mail services. The gov
ernment shows signs Of yielding. On
the contrary, NJ. Simyan, under secretary
Of posts and telegraphs. announced today
that such a revolt on the part Of the ser
wants OF the state cannot he tolerated.
Every official refusing to work or dis
obeying the regulations will be summarily
suspended and dismissed without the usual
appearance before a court OF discipline.
There is reason to believe that the cabi-
net, at its meeting today will temporarily
forbid further meetings OF postal en-
ployes, on the ground that such gatherings
endanger the public service.
