PUBLIC BUILDINGS
FOR U.C.V. REUNION
Elaborate Preparations Are Being
MAIDS in Houston for Annual
Gathering.

Houston, Texas. Sept 20.-Veterans
who come to the Confederate reunion
in Houston October to 8 will not be
quartered in camp. Instead rne plan
used successfully at Tulsa in 1918
and at Memphis in 1919 will be fol-
lowed and the old soldiers housed in
schools and public buildings.
Refusal by the Quartermaster Gen.
eral of the Army to lend any equip
ment except tents to the u. =. V.
caused the change of plan. A reso-
luton passed by Congress in July pro-
vides for the loan of tents to veterans
organizations but does not mention
other equipment. The War Department
stayed by the letter of the act Con-
gress is not in session to change It.
Cots, and blankets enough to fit out
10000 veterans for outdoor sleeping,
would cost too much. So 5000 double
mattresses have been ordered and,
will be spread down in the "billets" all
near the center of the city.
The mess kitchen and dining halls
will be erected on city property at
Mckinney and Smith Streets, four
blocks from the city auditorium, which
is reunion headquarters. E. A. Pick
ems, who has fed the boys" at seven
reunions is already constructing his
restaurant plant
Billeting the veterans indoors will
avoid all the danger of exposure should
a sudden storm come up, as happened
at Atlanta last year, when two inches
of rain flooded the veterans out of
camp.
home for the more aged and enfeebled
veterans have been pledged
Preparations are being made for a
maximum of 10000 old soldiers, and
for a total of $4,000 visitors.

TURKEY IS EASY
FOR FOREIGNERS
Turkish Officials Especially in Con-
stantinople Said TO Yield to
Corruption.

Constantinople, Sept. 20.-Foreigners.
or so-called foreigners. are enjoying
great commercial prosperity m Tur-
kish cities, especially in Constantine
pie. Turkish officials have been east
ly corrupted. Business men who were
not too scrupulous in their methods
have found Turkey a profitable field.
In spite Of all the propaganda which
has been circulated about the appro-
priation of Christian property by Mo-
hammedans, the stubborn fact remains
that Greeks and Arnenians own a dis
proportionate part of the best business
property on the prominent streets in
Constantinope and many of them have
been more successful at war profit
teering than Turks.
The leading hotel of Constantinople
is owned by a Greek who made a great
fortune selling supplies to the German
army. He has invested his money in
hotels in various parts Of Europe. The
Constantinople hotel cost him S350,000
a year ago. In a single year the hotel
has paid for itself. He charges So a
day for a small single room without
bath and the cost of meals is in pro-
portion. The only other hotel run on
European lines is owned by an Arme-
MAN, and his prices are equally high.
Turkish officials are not permitted
to regulate prices. The Germans did
it when they were in control of Con-
stantinople. But the entente high
commissioners make little attempt to
check profitsering, because such eff
forts only intensity the friction which
exists between he various missions.
Constantinopla rs really group of
religious principalities, which are
more political than religious, and ac-
knowledge the authority of no govern
ment. The Greeks are under their pa
triarch, the various religious faiths
of the Armenians have their patriarchs.
and the Jews have a grand rabbi. All
these races hate each other nearly as
much, apparently, as they do the
Turks. Westerners are unable to COM
prehend the hatred in which the rival
nationalities of the Levant have stew
ed for centuries. Entente high COM
misioners now have some appreciation
of the task Turkish officials had in
trying to administer such mixed popu-
lations.
Every nationality has to have its own
churches. its own schools, orphanages
and hospitals. Even small children of
different nationalities cannot be put
together without serious friction.
American relief workers who have
been trying to assist refugees of all
races, regardless of religion, find the
task almost impossible. Armenians
complain if Turks are fed. Greeks al
lege faveritism to Armenians and the
relief committees of the various races
and religious heads take up the
walls of individuals and waste the time

AMERICANS IGNORE
BUSINESS COURTESY
Fail to Put Proper Postage on Letters
to Argentine.
10y Associated press.l

Buenos Aires, Sept. 20.-Failure of
the majority OF North American man.
ufacturing and exporting concerns to
place sufficient postage on letters they
send to Argentina is one Of the de-
tails which is tending to cause an I'M
favora BILE opinion here of American
business methods, says the bulletin
OF the United States chamber of COM
merce in Argentina.
The bulletin is convinced that at
least IS per cent of the letters sent
here from the United States bear a
two cent stamp, instead of the five
cent postage required. This means that
the recipients are not only obliged to
pay the additional three cents but a
fine imposed by the Argentie postof-
flee regulations equivalent to the de-
ficiency, or a total of six cents. Many
circulars and selling letters come with
the two-cent stamp, and it may be
readily understood how annoying it is
to Argentine firms to have their cor
respondence treated in such a careless
manner.
The bulletin also comments upon the
LACK even rudimentary knowledge
of geography shown by some American
concerns in addressing letters. It
cites the instance of an important let
ter addressed by the chamber of COM
merce of one of the largest Ameri-
can cities to the stock exchange in
"Buenos Aires, Brazil" The ignorance
displayed of the location of a city of
nearly 100000 population is, to say
the least. not especially flattering to
our Argentine friends, who are very
proud of Buenos Aires as being the
metropolis of South America.
