Turkish Problem Complicated.

The reported Italian incident appar-
emily complexities the Turkish prob
lem, already a vexed one, with which
the peace conference heads have been
struggling for some little time past.
In evident anticipation Of a Greek
mandate to administer the Smyrna
district, allied forces were landed at
Smyrna last Thursday, meeting With
considerable resistance from the
Turks, but making themselves mas
tiers Of the city. Italian troops were
reported to have participated to some
extent in this landing. According to
a Paris dispatch of May 20, however,
the Italians had previously landed
coast of Asia Minor, and likewise dis
embarked troops at Budrum, sinety-
six miles southeast of Smyrna, and at
Makri, on the Gulf of Makri, in the
vilayet of Smyrna.
There had been nothing to indicate
that these landings were not by
agreement among the allies and. in
deed, some of the unofficial forecasts
as to the probable division of Turk
ish territory under league of nations
manufactures had indicated the prob
ability that Italy would be given the
Adalia district to administer.

PARENT DAY AT
GROUP CENTERS
Children Play in Presence of El-
ders and Then All Join In Dis
posing Of Refreshments.

It was parent day at at least two
OF the group centers on the south
side yesterday afternoon. And now
the north sideis jealous. It's
turn is coming, however.
Over so mothers and children
gathered at the M. II. Bigby center
and an equally large number at the
M. M Marquis lawn, where the
fore part of the afternoon was
spent in the usual routine of story
telling and games.
There was not the usual whole
hearted zest in the play, however,
due to the fact that in some
strange, unaccountable manner the
rumor of "eats" had leaked out
and sped the rounds.
Then they came! Cake and
sandwiches and jelly rolls and
lemonade n everything. An all you
wanted. Wasn't It q grand and
glorious feelin'?
The mothers enjoyed it about as
much as the children. They were
Outspoken in their praise of the

Miss Mary clearinghouse, assisted

The Day In Davenport

Pass on 'Sentence-Sentence in
the cases of Art Hass and Jack
Wall, policemen suspended early
this week by Chief Phelan, will be
passed by the police and fire COM
mission at a meeting today.
Judgment was withheld at the
meeting Wednesday in order that
the commissioners might get fur
Their evidence 1t is now claimed
that the two officers overturned a
police motorcycle driven by Wall
several times before the final
smash-up at Fifteenth and Mar
Quette streets. -
The commission has also learned
that the men failed to report for
duty for two days following the
accident. despite the fact that both
of them were riding around the city
in an automobile.
Muscatine Walks-No change in
the Muscatine street car tie-up is
evident. The city still continues to
make the best of it and walk, while
Mayor r. S. McNutt and his cOun-
Gil seem to be as far from a settle
ment with the C. d. & NJ. Railway
company as at any time since the
strike began.
The company's offer still holds
good to begin immediate operation
of cars if the city will grant a Z
cent fare, repeal the ordinance pro-
viding for two-man car operation
and drop the injunction proceed
ings against one-man car opera
ton This the Muscatine council re-
fuses to do.
Demands $2O,OOO.-Twenty thou
sand dollars is the amount of dam
ages demanded in suit filed in
the district court by Harry Meier
against Walter Voss.
The plaintiff believes that he
suffered injuries in the foregoing
amount in the collision of his mo-
torcycle and the auto driven by
Voss early in the spring. In fact
the list of injuries recited in the
petition inspires the belief that
Plaintiff Meier would not care to
repeat the experience for any
amount of money.
