To the American Dead.
We are the dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunsets glow,
Loved and We're loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe!
To you, from falling hands, we throw
The torch. Be yours to lift it high.
If We break faith with US who die
We shall not sleep.

In death we do the same.

Under the cd where he peacefully
sleeps.

TURKSFAIL TO
 REALIZE THEY ARE CRUSHED

LONDON, March 1 Correspond ence of the Associated Press) The Turks are by no means convinced that they are vanquished, and show few the allies of the central powers, ac- cording to French correspondent who has returned from Constanti- nople. The correspondent attributes this failure on the part of the Turks to realize their actual situation to the fact that the British and French con- manders in the Turkish capital have not acted like conquerors and imposed their authority on the Turks.
 The correspondent declares that he was unable to convince the leading Turks of the complete victory of the Allies and of the definite crushing of the German military power, and adds that this is due to the fact that the allied troops did not enter Stamboul with flying flags, because the allied officers did not install themselves as masters in the different ministries, and because the military authorities did not take over all' the administra- tive offices and police the city.
 The committee of Union and Prog ress no longer exists, legally, says the Frenchman, but it's creatures still oc- cupy their posts in the ministries and in the police service," he continued. <"This frequently takes the form or spreading rumors of disagreement pe- tween France and England on the subject of the future of Turkey. They assert that it would be to the advant- age of England and France to placate Turkey and to leave Constantinople as the Turkish capital.
 "On one of the Princes islands Prinkipo-the German Marshal von Sanders Liman Pascha, is comfortably lodged and receives the adherents Of the old regime and, between dessert and cheese, they openly plot against us without fear of disturbance.
 ."The Germans who knew the Turks treated them as they should be treat ed, with brutal force, and that is the on1v attitude which can be adopted toward them. We should bring nome to them the realization that the allies are in reality the conquerors. we n,r.t act with energy and firmness, if we desire to retain our predominant influence in Turkey.

HOUSE OF COMMONS
 VERITABLE QUESTION BOX

LONDON, March 28.-The new House of Commons is proving itself one of the most inquisitive of recent years. This, too, despite the absence of the Irish members who, in previous years, have filled the question paper with inquiries.
 Since the opening of the parliament the number of questions to ministers has averaged we'll over 200 and some days has reached nearer 300. As only an hour is allowed each day for the asking and answering of questions only about a hundred can be dealt with daily the others being answered in writing. This does not satisfy the curiosity of the new members, who re- gently asked that the time should be extended by an hour and quarter.
 In refusing the request, Mr. Bonar Lew, the government leader in the House of Commons, said every ques- tion asked cost the country five dol lars, chiefly in printing, not counting the time of the permanent staffs of the different departments, who have to collect the data.

WOMEN WORKERS REFUSE
 TO GIVE UP THEIR JOBS

LONDON, March 2S (by the Associ- ated Press) An economic battle is being waged over the 100000 unem- ployed women of the country who earned good wages, chiefly as muni- tions workers during the war. Some English newspapers and commenta- tors are asking if sex war is one of the sinister possibilities of the future. They point out that the situation is more dangerous than when the suf- fragettes were wont to smash win dows and terrorize the London police because the women did not then. know the full measure of their power.
 Since the armistice was signed 1t has become more and more apparent that these 1,500,O0O women workers would have to return to private life so as to give opportunity of employment for returning soldiers. But they have not accepted the situation with good grace, and have answered the chal- lenge of the economic condition by strong organizations whose avowed intention is to safeguard the position of women in industry.
 The most important of these is Lady Rhondda's newly inaugurated Woman's Industrial League, which has opened offices in London and sent or ganizers into all parts of the country. Lady Rhonddas plans are viewed with suspicion and some measure of dis trust by professional women labor leaders.
 Dr. Marion Phillips, chief woman of ficer of the labor party, asserts that the agitation conducted by Lady Rhondda's league is calculated to lead to bitterness and sex strife between men and women workers.

 One of the two liners will make a trip as soon as the freight traffic gets heavy" said Mir. Pet erson. Although the passenger traffic would at times warrant it's return before, the San Francisco run is much more congested, and the lack of Alaskan freight traffic during the summer makes it more necessary to keep the boats on the southern run in order to get full capacity use from them.

ChaS. E. Davidson
 Drowned at Juneau
Special to Sentinel

JUFEAU, Aug. 9. 9.-Charles E. Davidson. surveyor general of the Territory of Alaska and eX- officio secretary of Alaska, drowned about 10 o'clock last night near Annex creek in Taku channel. He was on an outing in boat with Mrs. Davidson and Dr. and Mrs. Simpson, but none of them saw him go into the water at the time he met death. It was several minutes before his absence was discovered.
 After being ashore. the two men went aboard the boat and lifted anchor. The women then went aboard and into the cabin to start the engine, Dr. Simpson going with them. Mr. Davidson remained on deck.
 After a few minutes, Mrs. Da- vidson asked:
 Where is Charlie?'
 Dr. Simpson replied that he was on deck. She stepped out and he was nowhere to be seen. All members then recalled that they had heard cries of "Oh, Bob!' and believe that they were the last words uttered by the sur veyor general after he fell into the water. The cry had been re- peated two or three times, but those in the cabin thought noth- ing of it at the time, believing that Mir. Davidson simply wanted Dr. Simpson to return to the deck.
 At the time of the death there was a strong outgoing tide and | it is feared that the body was carried far out to sea. Searching parties started to work last night and continued this morning, but up to a late hour their efforts were fruitless.
 Charles E. Davidson was a res- ident of Alaska for 20 years, re- siding at Nome, Fairbanks and Juneau. In 1913 he was nomin- ated by President Wilson to be surveyor general of the Territory and year ago was reappointed. Seven years ago he married and is survived by wife and three children.
