Turkeys Military Strength.

The military strength of Turkey cannot be
accurately gagged. since the Turkish government
has refused 10 furnish information about the
REORGANIZATION which took place following the dis
asters in the Balkan war. Turkey lost in that
war two-thirIs Of its territorial holdings in Europe
and a population exceeding 100000 Its present
nopulation is estimated in the "Almanach dc
Gotba" at 20G0OOOO and in "Whitaker's Inter
national Almanac" at 174250O0. But large
percentage of the population is unavailable for
military purposes.
Turkey in Europe including Constantinople, has
about 100000 inhabitants. OF those consider
able proportion are Greeks, Armenians and Jews
When Turkey was "a real military power no IN
believers were admitted into the army, which
was recruited chiefly from the pure Turkish stock
Of Asia Minor That source Of supply still re-

2357OOO The Kurds make good irregular sol
diers but the Armenians are mistrusted. Arabia
has 100000 inhabitants but they in a chronic
state of instruction against the central govern
ment.
/ II is evident that ont of this diverse material
Turkey cannot construct dependable military
force exceeding 100000 men. The peace footing
Of the army IS well under that fgure-probably
about 10000. The supply Of trained reserves is
necessarily short because Of the policy followed
until a few years ago Of excluding non -Mahomet-
ans from service. The Kurds and Arabs can
hardly be counted upon TO make disciplined
soldiers.

The Unnecessary Litigation Evil

The committee of the State Bar Association
which is seeking light on the prevention Of hti-
cation will have the good wishes Of all right
thinking laymen. No one can underestimate the
importance of this task--Or the difficulty Of IT.
The ordinary man in the street is prone TO think
that laws are made, interpreted and executed
from the technical point of view Of the lawyer
and he Is largely right.
one thing the Bar Association can and should
do That is to promugate and enforce by all
possible means the doctrine that It is as unethcal
for a lawyer TO encourage going 10 law where
any other course is possible in decency and honor,
or the continuance of dubious litigation, as ii
would be for him TO take a fee from one client
and sell out 10 his opponent. This will hit the
pockets Of the lawyers. If the Bar Association
investigates very hard, it will lind that that -
The precise spot to attack in order to rid the legal
profession of many of its evils.

Sir: If there is one thing which
