NEGRO COOK SAVES
AN ELDERLY WOMAN
Her Leg Broken, He Carries

NORFOLK, Va, May 24.-Lyinx with

the negro cook of the Virginia, which
burned to the waters edge last night
Off Smiths Point. Mrs. Bowling is one
of the few passengers on the Virginia
who was seriously injured. She is 70
years old. Mrs. Bowling gives credit
for saving her life to Shields and asserts
that II was only by his unselAsh cour-
age that she Ia alive to-day.
II was awakened by the virginia's
whistle" said Mrs. Bowling, land the

to turn on the light in my stateroom
but could not find the switch. then
went outside. Men. women and children
were flying about and shrieking that
they were lost. 1 was afraid to get
into the mob and stood where l could
watch. hoping for an opportunity to
save myself.
Finally the officers OF the ship sue
ceeded in quieting the passengers. nearly
all OF whom had been asleep when the
fire was discovered. aud they lined UP by
the lheboats. I saw one lffeboat filled
and lowered over the side. The next
was filled and before they could lower II
a rope parted and the whole load of
screaming women were thrown into the
water. That frightened me and I made
no effort to get into a boat.
Then ! saw aAother boat which had
been lowered safely overturned by pas
sensers scrambling about, and that filled
me with horror. A man standing near
me shouted that his wife was drowning
and started past me toward the stern OF
the boat. 7 caught hold OF his coat and
went with him.

the saloon somehow stumbled and fell
down the steps and the horrible pain In

American, for example, should kill him
In battle his God will reward him with
the 800 women. His thoughts run to
women, more women and still more
women. and his heaven of plentiful
supply Of women Is the great goal to
which he will willingly give up his life
Approaching this fact should give
any American an idea Of what would
happen II the United States, under the
mandatory power, attempted to limit the
number of women In the harems or TO
preach against polygamy. The only
way reforms under the League OF
Nations possibly could be impressed upon
the Turks would be to pretend that more
numerous and more thickly populated
harems were to be established on earth
and in heaven under the leagues special
auspices and that II the Turks responded
to reforms they might have share In
the new plans.
mo other sort of progress would In
terest the Turks because they believe
that such progress comes from an evil
power. A man in Turkey is not
measured by his brains or his ability or
his wealth, but by the number of women
he had in his haren. A shikah must
have at least from six to twelve women
In his harem. This In fact Is one Of the
main quaiifica atoms in order to be n
shikah. The shikahs are the bishops
or church authorities"
Large Army Would he Needed.
The consensus here Is that II the
United States should assume a manda-
tory over Constantinople a considerable
force OF American troops now in Europe
would be transferred to the military zone
In Turkey. N considering a mandate
for Armenia few American regi-
ments with n nucleus of American off,
GERS to form a local militia have been
SPOKEN of. hut the Constantinople prob
lem Is admittedly different.
There are experts now at the State
Department here who understand just
what conditions would have to be met
by the United States under this
mandatory system, and their advice is
particularly valuable because It Is not
Influenced by European desires respect
ing Turkey. 1t is understood. for
example, that the British are not anxious
to rule Constantinople because trouble
with the Moha mmednns might cause diff
fculties in India for the British. There
is decided willingness, therefore. on
the part of the British and other Euro
pean nations to permit Uncle Sam to re-
form the Turk.

Mr.. Lamsa has spent much OF his

warn America that Turks can be con-
