TURKISH WOMEN UNVEILED.
Striking Changes Wrought by War
in the Mohammedan Capital.

PHILADELPHIA, September 10
Sergt Mike" Dorizas, a former Uni
versity of Pennsylvania wrestler and
foot ball player. as Interpreter for
the American mandate commission,
has been making a tour of Turkey,
and recent letters from him give in
tereSting accounts, not only or his
personal experiences, but of the vast
changes that have taken place in the
Ottoman empire since the war.
'In Constantinople," he writes, one
sees all kinds of soldiers, but the
city is dead. The harbor is full of
warships of the allied nations; the
shops are nearly empty and the few
remaining commodities are very cost
w: Food though, is not more ex-
Densive than in France.
THE thing that impressed me most
in the old capital was seeing Turkish
women going about with their faces
uncovered and riding in carriages
with men and walking with men.
Things are changing even in Turkey.
I suspect the presence Of the allied
troops and allied men-of-war made
the women more courageous"
From Damascus Sergt Dorizas
wrote: "The men of the commission
are working very hard and am sure
great good will come from their
efforts The commission is received
everywhere with open arms and all
want America to take an interest in
their affairs"

to meet actual increases in the cost of
living. These efforts had been SUCCESS
ful in, the anthracite field, where in
creasea OF from 25 to 40 per cent had
been granted. but all efforts to secure
corresponding ameliorations to the
bituminous scale had failed. Produc-
ton IN 1919 had fallen off markedly,
he said. the output during the first
seven months having been ninety-one
million tons less than in the same
months of 1918. This reduction was
accompanied by extensive non-employ-
ment for miners.
The astonishing increase" in the
cost OF the necessities of life felt by
the miners with particular severity
oWingEto their life in isolated COM
minutes far from centers of distribu-
uon. necessitated immediate action to
enable mine workers to meet it.
Time for Action Here.
Tnet committee on policy already
mad drawn up a series of recon-
mendStfons, which he enumerated. but
no wage movement had been thought
advisable. this summer owing to the
industrial depression. The time for
action had nov come. In no way re-
sponsfble for the failure of the Sem
ate to ratify the treaty of peace and
thus qf1cially terminate the Wash
1ngton wage agreement, the United
Mine Workers should no longer be
considered bound by that agreement
He therefore recommended that the
convention terminate the Washington
agreement not later than NoVern Der
1; that in the event of no satisfac-
tory basic agreement being reached
by that 4 date there be no sectional
settlements by districts. but that
there be "a complete cessation of
mine operations throughout our en-
