TURKEYS REFUSAL
OF POWERS NOTE
TO MEAN DEFEAT
viii Get No Financial Aid If
War Is Resumed Against
Balkan Allies.

LONDON, Jan. 1s.-The peace envoys
of the Balkan states today agreed that
the joint note of the great powers
handed to the Porte did not put any re-
straint upon the allies, and they de-
clared that Turkeys rejection of the
advice of the powers would mean the
utter annihiliation of Turkey IN Europe.
The Balkan delegates said they could
interpret no part of the note to be in
opposition to the capture by the allies
Of Constantinople and they declared
that the taking of the Ottoman capital
would be the first thing undertaken,
should the war be resumed.
Certain of Peace.
At the same time the Balken plenipo-
tentiaries professed to be confident that
war would not be resumed. They said
they were remaining in London because
they expected the St. James palace
peace negotiations to be reopened soon.
It cannot believe that Turkey would
be 30 foolish as to reject the advice of
the powers, and am confident that the
peace conference will be resumed early
the Bulgarians.
The note of the powers, Jointly pre-
sented to the Turkish government by
the ambassadors at Constantinople
advised the Porte to submit to the terms
offered by the allies, including the ces-
sion Of Adrianople and the Aegean ISL
an6s.
Will Get No Aid.
Turkey was told that Il she precipi-
tated fresh hostilfties she would receive
no financial aid frow any Of the pow
ers and would lay herself liable to as
saults of Asiatic Turkey, which UP to
now the allies have not attacked.
1T Is to be hoped that Turkey will
see the light said NJ. Venizelos, the
Greek envoy. Greece is willing to leave
the disposition of the Aegean Islands
and all other questions to the powers,
confident that thev will consider the
justice of our claims and the desires
Of our people"

NO STATE EMPLOYS
PROPER SYSTEM Of
RECORDING BIRTHS
ChiIdren's Bureau Says Halt Of
100000 Babies Lost Yearly
Could Be Saved.

Not a single State in the Union has
thoroughly effective birth regis
tration system. according to the first
official circular issued by the new
Children's Bureau of the Department
of Commerce and Labor.
In 1910 the New England States,
Michigan and Pennsylvania were the
only States where laws were satis-
factory and sufficiently well enforced
to register nine births out of ten,
and nine out of ten is poor registra-
ton, IL is declared. This country,
according to available estimates. Is
losing 100000 babies annually, and
at least half of these could be saved
by bringing to bear simple measures
already known to science
Good vital statistics. the circular
continues. are needed to enable those
working for public health to detect
bad conditions and select the proper
social remedy for them. Immediate
notification is necessary so that the
baby born under adverse conditions
may be promptly sent the assistance
to be given by health authorities, Wis
iting nurses and other social
agencies.
Registration will assist in the en-
forcement of child labor laws says
the circular. "and compulsory educa-
ton laws, giving the State an official
record of the age of its children. It
will furnish the child an official rec
ord of his age and parentage, which
will secure to him the protection
which the laws of his State endeayor
to throw around his childhood An
official record of birth and parentage
is, moreover, frequently of service in
legal matters and everyday private
affairs. not only in childhood but
throughout life"
