ASKS TUTELACE FOR
JEWS AND ARMENIA

CONSTANTINOPLE, Nov. 26.-The
proposed independent state for the Ar
menian and Jewish peoples in Turkey
should have a period of tutelage under
another nation, preferably the United
States, DR.. Caleb +. Gates, president
of Robert college in Constantinople,
declared to the correspondent today.
DR.. Gates has been a resident of Tur-
key for SO years.
"The Armenian and Jewish peoples
of Turkey, for whom independent states
are proposed" he said, cannot govern
themselves without period of tute-
lage. A single nation should control.
Equal laws for all residents and nation
alities, Turk and TURK, should not
only be made by this nation, but should
be administered by whatever means
necessary.
THE Turks are proud race and
would resent such influence, but it is
inevitable. For yself, l prefer
America
81 don't know that the United States
even would consider the task, taking
INTO account the uiSLdllCe DOtll nOlilt,
and the conflicting interests, but what
ever nation is chosen, two principles
should be followed. The government
should be for the natives. and not to
enrich another people across the sea
Second, the government should be by
the people, because everywhere it is
evident that no people will consent long
to be governed.
''If the Americans have any voice in
the worlds peace, 1 hope they will
strive to enforce these principles in
Turkey.
Regarding the Turks many say, with
Mr.. Asquith, former premier of Great
Britain) that the Turks are ended in
Europe. They must mean the Turkish
government, because I suppose nobody
has advocated driving the CONSTANT
nople Turks from their homes.
THAT a substitute for the present
government would solve the problem
is a question. Even if an international
government could succeed anywhere, il
is surely doubtful if it could succeed il
Constantinople, where racial and com
mercial rivalry always have been SUI
preme."

SOON To KNOW HOW
MANY v. s. s. THIS
COUNTY SHOULD BUY

BY or before December all the fig
ures for the sale of War Savings stamps
in Maricopa county will be available,
and then County Chairman ]. c. Dob
bins will know just what money will
have to be raised in this county in the
few remaining weeks of the year in
order that Maricopa. may come up to
The figures set for 1918 by the treasury
department.
II is planned to then start an inten-
sive campaign for the sale of baby
bonds and Thrift stamps for the week
OF December 9>to IA, inclusive, and to
clean up the deficit as quickly as pos
sible.
If the investors Of the county sub
scribe for enough War Savings stamps
in three days to meet the governmental
expectation, then the drive will be over
and the canvass will cease.
It is to be last, Jig rally for the
year to put Maricopa county in the
10O-per class for the War Savings
stamps, the class the county has always
been ranked in for the Liberty loans,
Red Cross and the United War Work
campaign.
It is believed that November has
been a rather poor month for the sale
of War Savings stamps, but only the
final figures, compiled as soon after
December l as it is possible to do so,
will show just how the county stands.
On November l the county had fallen
back into fourth place and it is hoped
by this intensive selling campaign to
put it back near the top when Father
Time shifts the calendar fer the New
Year.
Chairman Dobbins is forming an or
ganization to care for the work of the
siX-day drive in December which he
hopes will solve the very real problem
which confgonts the county in trying
10 meet governmental expectations.
Each month has found further accu-
mutation Of deficit in the sale of War
Savings stamps and now, if the county
IS to catch up, all these deficits must
be met and overcome in a very few
weeks.
H'ot the least of the obstacles just
BeY is the influenza situation, which
IL az or near its crest in the county
and has laid up a large number of War
Stamp workers, according to reports at
county headquarters. 1t is hoped by
the time fixed for the intensive cam
paign that the situation with regard to
the epidemic viii have so improved that

COMMISSION RULES
ON 8 WATER CASES

The state corporation commission
yesterday disposed of the various wat
er cases from Miami and vicinity. An
investigation had been asked by water
users Of the district of Midland city,
between Globe and Miami, of the rates
and service of the Midland City Land
company. This was a company formed
evidently for the purpose of selling lots
which the company had undertaken to
supply with water and other conven-
fences. The original company had
failed and the Miami Lumber companv
took charge
The commission found that in the
circumstances, with the limited number
OF patrons, the rates are as low as they
can justly be made.
Other water users had complained OF
the water rates and service Of the CITY
of Miami. The commission held that il
had no jurisdiction in the case or Il
company operating within munich
pality.
In the matter of the rates and service
of the w. & c., company of Globe, the
complaint was dismissed on the ground
that the commission could not at this
time go into the question of the valu-
alton of the property to determine
whether the present flat rate of $3.50 a
month or the meter rate of $3.50 d
thousand gallons was exorbitant.

Kentucky. committee chairmn. Heads

show in detail what expenditures have
been made by various departments and

these terrible forces are loose in the
world after the scourge of war;
Outlining the situation in Europe
today, DR.. Wilbur declared $4,000 O0O
people are going to be short of food
this winter. Through Mr.. Hoover in
conference with the allied food control
lers last summer, America agreed to
1urnlsh 17,500,O00 tons of food. On
that assurance-that guarantee. they
agreed to put over this war and they
did"
The reason for lifting the ban on
sugar and flour, explained DR.. Wilbur
is found in the fact that the allies do,
manded soldiers and supplies in nref-
erence to food, during the last few
months of the war. Vast reserves of
1oodstuffs were thereby built ND in
america, ready for release to the allies
during the winter months. In order to
1uiflll her obligation, America must
not only supply the $500. 900 tons of
1000 promised, but an additional
amount of 100000 tons to Serbia. Po-
land, Armenia and other small nations
which were under the German heel
Ihere has been a great deal of fool
lsh talk over the idea of allowing Ger
many to have food. General Foch
agreed for US. that the German people
would be permitted to obtain supplies
Ihere is no thought of supplying them
direct, but to remove the blockade
thus permitting them to buy supplies
from the Argentine and elsewhere.
we have an obligation to the suf-
Ierihg women and children of Germany
"hlcn we should meet. Can vol,
imagine for moment one of our brave
boys who risked his life to bring FREQ
oom to the oppressed, sitting down IN
the enjoyment of full meal. while \
ii'eie one begged for food at his side?
But regardless of the German stu
aton. our obligation to the allies in
meeting our promises OF assistance is
| not altered in the slightest"
Hign tribute to the women Of amer-
lea was paid by the speaker, who de-
cared that their efforts in conserva
ZION and other patriotic activities va c
as great a factor in the winning of tho
war as was the superb fighting of our
men. Vi Jul
Dr. Wilbur concluded his remarks nv
reading a special message from Her
bert Hoover, calling upon ali workers
10 remain at their posts until the work
oi tne 1000 administration is rounded
out and brought to a close. Snecial
emphasis was placed on the import-
ahce or the coming drive during World
Reilef week. which is designed as an
eI1ectlve means for awakening a
world conscience" in the minds of tbe
public. d' Vi TIC
