A. Rustem Bey, the Turkish ambassa-

What / will call the funny column

and, not infrequently, jibes at the ex-

Cartoons also are INDUCED in as a
means of turning into ridicule the mis-
fortune or straits of those who are
fighting the terrible anxiety and
uoubts of those who have not yet

Turkey has come in for much of this

Speaking for my country, / will say
that while wit is a precious quality
and many of the writer's of the funny
columns undoubtedly possess large
measures of 1t, it betrays a lack of
human feeling and delicacy which are
much more precious than wit to see in
the disturbed or threatened destinies
of nation which has always lived on
friendly terms with the United States

ENGLAND BARS DOGS.
Refugees From Continent Not Allowed
to Bring Their Pets In.

Dover, Nov. 3.-England has a law
regulating the. importation of dogs
which has caused great grief to refu-
gees forced to seek the safety of Brit
ish sssil.. The law requires all dogs to
be held in quarantine for six months
before they can be given liberty in
England and officials at ports of entry
have no authority to waive it in any
case.
Many Belgian women and children
saved their dogs when war drove them
from home and managed to keep their
pets through all the rush and scram-
BILE of the exodus, but when they
reached FOlkestone, Dover or other
ports of entry they were told that Eng
lish laws would not admit animals
which were not held for six months.
One woman at Folkstone asked to be
taken back to Ostend with her dog, but
Ostend is closed. In fact it was prob
ably in the hands of the Germans who
held less terror for her than the order
that she must leave her dog. Finally
she consented to have one of her
friends drown the pet. as she said she
could not bear to have it locked up in
a compound for six months.
Few refugees had any knowledge of
the strict English law about animals.
However, some of the experienced trav-
elers who came from Belgium managed
to slip small pets past inspectors be-
cause of the great rush and the hur-
ried examination given all luggage.
One Flemish refugee brought his
wife. eleven children and a dog to
Folkstone. He was penniless. but I'M
willing to part with the dog and asked
that quarters be obtained for the fam
lily in Folkstone SO they might be able
to visit the dog every day.

The policeman said tt was nothing

Formerly the policeman continued.
