Even in Turkey the Woman
Movement Is Making Progress

Others want to carry out complete reform
of all customs and habits as soon as pos
sible. But all these questions have dropped
into the background temporarily, owing TO
the war.
ION the other hand. the educational move
ment has not been checked. but even en-

Jemsheti. whose members must be able to

work. 1t is also seeking TO reach Turkish
women through lectures and courses OF IN
struction. These efforts are thoroughly ap-
proved and supported by the leading men OF
the new regime. Thus the Marine Minis

TIME report of Secretary McAdoo has,
of course, attracted attention by
u reason of the extraordinary total
of appropriations asked for, but much IN
terest attaches also to the fact that the
Secretary, for the first time, lays before
Congress estimates approximating what is
known in European finance as budget
The total expenditures of the next fiscal
wear are estimated at the huge sum OF
S13. SOC, 000, 900, of which sl1,Oo0OOO, 600
is for carrying on the war, and the costs
of the war for the two years ending June
30. 1919. arc given at $36,0O0,O0O000.
That detailed estimates have been sub
mitted by the Secretary Of the Treasury
has been welcomed in the press as graft
fying innovation. "The New York Even
ing Sun" writes;
"For the first time in history Congress will
take I'm at the outset of it's session full and
compact statement OF the governments finan-
cial needs and will be obliged to give heed to
il. This approaches what other liberal coun-
tries have long had: national budget. Ihere
should result an economy of talk, time and
money"
This approach TO the budget system IS
taken up by the press for more extended
discussion than the mere dimensions of
the appropriations themselves, although
these are variously characterized as stag
gerng," "stupendous," and ION scale to
stagger attention" The return to CEN
tralized appropriations committee in the
House Of Representatives, as just recon-
mended by Ie President in his address
to Congress and again proposed by Secre-
tary McAdoo, is treated at length by the
press, and meets with general and strong
approval.
The New York Tribune shows how the
present system of making appropriations
through eleven committees originated in
personal feud among Democratic members
Of the House, and how this division of re-
sponsibility has tended toward extrava-
gance. 1t then writes:
Control of various money bills was taken

Canada Is a Busy Place on the
Eve of General Elections

Following this Sir Robert Borden sue
ceeded in forming a true coalition govern
ment. securing the adherence Of many Of
the most prominent Liberals, particularly
from the Western provinces, in the forma-
ton of his Union" ministry, completed
last October. Upon the coming election
will depend the continuance of this COM
bination yet in all but twenty of the 235
constituencies there will be a contest. The
coalition forces call themselves the "Win
the war" party, and claim that their de
feat with the consequent return to power
of Laurier would at least slacken Can
ada's share of war activity. Sir Wilfrid
is not accused of any disloyalty; but his
opponents believe that he would not Ell
fectively continue Canada's efforts, espe-
cially in view of the lukewarm attitude
of the French provinces toward the war
The response TO the call for volunteers
from Quebec was surprisingly small.
The situation is further complicated by
some emergency measures put through by
the Borden government with an eye to
the coming election; especially the grant
of the franchise to such women as have
male relatives in the army and the extern
sion of the vote TO all soldiers. There
was much criticism Of each of these-the
one being held unfair to many women
who were otherwise quite qualified as
voters. but who happened to have no SOL
der husband. or brother, and the other
being stigmatized as unjust IN that 1t
gave a vote to many Americans and Eng
lishmen who had no interest in Canada.
Feeling runs high; it is naturally an
emotional campaign. 1t is also remark
able that Laurier is obliged to lead his
forces practically without any support
from the press. Scarcely paper outside
Of the French press of Quebec is speaking
for him. Yet he is undoubtedly person
ally popular, and will carry Quebec with
him by heavy vote. The general impress
sion. however, is that the rest OF Canada
will rally to the coalition ministry and
maintain it in power. The bitterness OF
the campaign is shown in the fact that
several large meetings have been broken

Three Kings Decide to Stay Neutral

With public opinion in this mixed state
throughout the three Morse countries the
stirring of war spirit in Norway served
Germany as a text for the warning that
if Norway moved she would at once seize
Denmark. As "The Houston Chronicle"
expressed il, Norway was rocking the
boat" With things in this condition the
three kings met in Norway, and after a
conference with leading statesmen of each
nation, finally declared positively for con-
tinued neutrality toward all belligerent
nations, but also asserted their determine

" He announcement, permitted by the
War Department, that the Rain
bow Division" had arrived safely
in France has served to bring home to all
the United States very profound realiza-
tion Of the fact that the nation is at war.
These men, for the most part veterans OF
the National Guard came from nearly
every nook and corner of the country. The
first contingent of troops was naturally
composed of the small regular army, as a
nucleus, and they were not in so close
touch with the folks at home as those who
made up the aptly named Rainbow Divi-
sion" Now. however, nearly every town
CT hamlet from California to Florida has
one or more of its boys somewhere in
France" And each city and village is also
waking up to the fact that following these
pioneers WIZ go the greater National
Army.
Close upon the heels Of this announce
ment that the Guard had arrived came the
brief but Respondent story of the partici-
patton in the great battle still raging
around Cambria of American engineers
men theoretically non-combatants, at work
laying tracks and building roads at the

picks and shovels and found British rifles
to use in the repulse Of the enemy. Many
of these men were killed, and it is ru-
mored some were taken prisoner Both
the British and French commanders were
loud in praise Of them.

Early Russian Architecture

A PARIS art magazine, "L'Art ct
N les Artistes," has dedicated its
N whole number to the study of
ancient Russian architecture, thus in
viting its readers to forget for few
moments the bitter present. The author
of the essay, Louis Reau, former di-
rector general Of the Institut Frdneais,
of Petrograd, says the old theory
that ancient Russian art was almost en-
tireIy dependent on West European, Per-
sian and Hindu models is gradually ex-
pIoding. Byzantine art had, no doubt, an
enormous influence upon the beginnings of
Russian art, and of architecture in partic-
ular, but already the Muscovite churches
of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries
had entirely emancipated themselves from
the style of Emperor Justinian's famous
Hagia Sofia at Constantinople. When
Grand Duke Vladimir, in 988, bowed his
head over the baptismal font in the Crimea,
recognizing the Patriarch of Byzantium as
supreme religious authority for his people,
he separated not only its religious but
also its artistic evolution from the rest Of
Europe. His capital, Kiev, had the ambi-
ton to become gradually second Byzance.

welcome a chance to strike at Germany,
in spite of any war profits that may have
come to them. The loss of the Danish
provinces has not been forgotten. But
Denmark, alone, is helpless.
Furthermore, there is reason to believe
that Germany has always intended to
swallow Denmark, sooner or later, and
would be glad OF pretext. As THE
Richmond Times-Dispatch" surmised,
Germany anticipates a concerted naval
drive once the American battle feet takes
its station in European waters, and IN
order to fortify itself against this it is
seeking some pretext upon which Den
mark may be Belgianized.'

by the exchange of merchandise and in all
other ways.
The probable attitude of the Allies was
summed up by "The Brooklyn Daily
Eagle" thus:
at is safe to say that both sides prefer to
see Scandinavia remain neutral. The coun-
tries themselves prefer neutrality, and are
in no danger of becoming belligerents at
this time. The German threat, therefore,
must be viewed as move calculated to in
fuence the Northern neutrals, and especially
Norway, away from drastic action against
Germany, while it is also intended TO have
some effect in combating Scandinavian ac-
auiescence in the Allied embargo on food
stufs.'

progress, even during the war. lie writes /:
as everywhere else, the woman's move
ment in Turkey takes three directions-so-
cial betterment. educational development and
political liberation. The first named, as Is
easily understood, is the direction that has
found support in the most extensive circles
and it has been retarded least by the war.
Among the societies that encourage social
and charitable efforts the Islam Womsn's
League, whose chairman is the Princess
Nadjie, plays an important role. The league
has given household work to thousands of
women and opened opportunities for factory
work in carpet mills and ready-made cloth
ing shops for thousands of poor working
girls. The league itself owns two factories
in Taseim and Ejab, for which machinery
and equipment we're imported from Ger
many The organization is extending Itself
rapidly, even to the smaller towns and the
provinces.
"The political associations have different
tactics, according to whether their members
belong to the aristocracy or the bourgeois.

willing to have the veil cast aside at once.
