Russia what she wants.

But the allies cannot discuss this matter with Russia
now The new Russia doesn't know her own mind about

begin to see the problems clearly In the meantime the
Turks may well be allowed to stay in Constantnope If
they are put out, somebody replace them The only
disinterested successor would be America But America
has not yet realized her international responsibilities in the

When the Turks expelled an international commits

Armless Painters Win Fame.

Some years ago in London I saw
fine water-color landscapes by an art
.ist who had lost both arms, writes a
reader to the Manchester (Eng.)
Guardian. His name, if I remember
rightly, was Bertram Hiles, and he
held his brush "a rather long one)
between his teeth when painting.
And at the Edinburgh School of Art
some twelve years ago or more there
was a student who also was armless,
though he held his crayon or pencil
with his toes.
Then there was the case Of Daniel
Verge, the Spaniard. At one time
