Sc Far as Business Exploita-
ton after the War Ends
is Concerned.

BERLIN, Jan. 2S.-The society
recently organized for the economic
study of the near East has begun a
course of lectures at the University
of Berlin, which is one Of the many
indications that the economic ex-
p~loitation of Turkey after the war is
already engaging much attention
here. The first lecture was given BY
r. Junge who has spent many years
in study of economic conditions IN
the near East and who has just pub
lished a book under the title of The
Europeanizatipn Of Oriental busl-
ness Life"
The society referred to is made up
o. a number of university professors,
students of economies, and business
men interested in the development OF
Turkey. 1t appears, however, that
there is some disagreement among
the various authorities on the subject
as to whether Germany will find as
great an opportunity for trade in
Turkey as some of the more optimis-
tic writer's expect. Prof. c. II. Beck
er, of the University of Bonn, in an
article in the Cologne Gazette notes
the large number Of young men who
are taking up the study Of Turkish
and Arabic in the hope Of putting
their knowledge to good account
when the war is over, and he says
that German hopes in this regard are
not only exaggerated but childless.
Prof. Junge's book, which is the
first of a series to be brought about
by the society that is studying the
eastern economic situation, also con-
tains a warning against excessive OPP
timism on the part Of Germany.
Prof. Junge spent five years investi-
eating the Russian attempt to Eu-
~ropeanize Turkestan, and he warns
the Germans against repeating the
methods which Russia tried in that
part of the near East. The Russians
he declared, had taken only a mer-
chants view of the opportunities
presented. They had worked the
market for all 1t was worth without
looking to the future. Occidental
fashions were introduced in order to
Increase the demand for European
goods, and similarly, imports were
forced by other means. Long cred
its were extended that involved the
Russian merchant in the fate of the
native buying firms and he was fl
nally obliged to. squeeze the latter for
payment, with the result that many
of the native firms were ruined. Val
liable Oriental goods Of artistic de-
sign were initiated by European fac

In suggesting a commercial policy
for Germany in Turkey. Prof. Junse
declared that Turkish business life
should be allowed to remain Turkish
instead Of being made German. Ger
many, he said, should indulge in no
thought Of making Turkey a part OF
the German economic system. He
even favored a protective policy in
Turkeys behalf which should act
against imports from Germany as
we'll as those from other countries.
In making a number Of recommen-
dations for<the rejuvenation of Tur-
key economically, he said that one
essential was a far-sighted credit sys-
TEN, with special reference to the
needs of farmers and other small Dor
rowers. Railways and highways must
be built extensively, agriculture ra-
tionally reformed by means Of ex-
pertinent stations and model farms.
A Typographical survey Of all sec
lions of the country available for ag-
riculture must be made, he said,
to serve as basis for a wide-reaching
system of irrigation. In the foreign
trade the Oriental system of long
credits should be abolished, he. de-
clared.

aged.
Mr.. Cooper, Grady county's agricul-
tural agent, stated this morning that
there could be little doubt about the
damage done to the cherries and
plums and that he feared the other
fruits would come in for their share
of the damage.
Mr.. Cooper said that a large per
cent of the corn already up would per-
haps have to be replanted, the plants
being too small and too tender to
overcome the damage Of the frost
bites received. Potatoes were also
badly damaged, but these would not
suffer so severely as the corn and
would possibly recover from the ef-
fects Of the injury, being set back and
made later, however.
Mr. Akers, a farmer residing in the
Pocasset neighborhood, was in Chick
asha this morning and in speaking of
the damage to the fruit crop said that
he had examined his cherries and
, peaches and plums and found them
all badly damaged Mr.. Akers stated
that he had over eighty acres of corn
up nicely when the frosts came md
that he thought he would have to re
plant all of this crop.
