TURKS VERY WILLING TO CHANGE CITIZENSHIP
 WITHOUT CONJUNCTION

CONSTANTINOPLE, July ' (by As sociated Press) ).-Citizenship is a commercial commodity which is hawk red about in the cities of the Levant with an indifference which makes Westerners wonder whether the mix ed commercial populations of near eastern cities are capable of patri- otism and devotion to any country.
 An American business man in Con- stantinople who was recently en- ploying some agents asked many ap- pltcants what their citizenship was. Without exception the men produced passports from most of the Balkan states and expressed a willingness to feign any citizenship which might be necessary and to change as cir cumstances might demand. When the American expressed surprise they assured him it was very easy to get papers fixed for a consideration.
 Most of the Levantines who had German and Austrian citizenship have very speedily taken Czecho-Slovak papers or say they have become Jugo- Slavs. It is just as easy for them to change their nationality as it is for tho chameleon to change his colors.
 Many Levantiae firms have shuf- fec the citizenship of their members ill such manner as to have no diffi- cclty in meeting any business emer- gencies which may rise, and make claims on the various consular and diplomatic representatives for assis- tance in their commercial operations.
 The fashion in citizenship changes in Constantinople and other near east e~n ports just as the styles in hats. Greek citizenship has recently become rcpular because of the good treat ment Greece had at the hands of the peace conference and the general be- lief that Great Britain is definitely be- hind commercial interests and expects to do it's business largely through Greek interm edtaries.

tional demands as we'll as increased

tional demands as we'll as increased revenues to meet those demands.
 For instance, the first outstanding problem set forth by the N E. A. emergency commission at Pittsburg in 1918-that of compensation for the teacher" together with all that it in- volved brought the N E. A. leaders and speakers in close touch with all associations of business men, bankers, farmers, club women, labor organiz- ations, and parent-teacher organiza- tions. "You must pay our teachers more money" was the message force fully presented to them and through them to thousands of others.
 Folks were startled by the dis clousure of facts. But even then, some would not listen; not till the school room doors closed by thous- ands; not till Miss Inexperience and Miss Untrained walked into the school rooms, to instruct inefficiently hun- dreds-yes thousands-of Americas young hopefuls, was the great mes- sage of the teacher need" borne in upon public mind
 "The National Education Associa- tion blazed trail that encouraged state educational leaders and stimu- lated them to action. This year in one eastern state through united ef- fort was secured an appropriation of $29,000,000 for teachers; from a south ern state $4,000,000 in this same year; and from a far western state $3,50O,- 900 for teachers salaries Every. where states have reported increases this year.
 Adequate salaries for our teach ers"-that is the slogan from the At lantic to the Pacific. Our first out standing educational problem is be- ing solved"

EDUCATORS IN SESSION AT
 SALT LAKE


 (by Associated ress).-In her annu al address to the members of the national education association, Mrs Josephine Corless Preston, president of the association said:
 "I am pleased to- meet and greet this large and representative group of men and women tonight as president of the national education association. l have felt pround and have deemed 1t great honor to serve as presi- dent this year.
 My first official act was to help select the new home of the N E. A., located on Sixteeneh street in Wash ington, D. C., directly across from the home of the National Geographic so- ciety. It is commodous four-story building for which we paid $98,000. Its purchase comes as the continuation of our united efforts from the begin ming of the association. To the pio- neer educators who more than fifty years ago founded the N E. A. are we indebted for this association of educa- tors. To them and to the leaders in education who have followed are we indebted for the foresight which they gave this association not only it's organization, but also it's financial backing. Our savings from yearly dues have accumulated until in 1919, upon becoming president of the organ ization, I found $200,000 in govern ment bonds to the credit of the N. E. A. Our permanent home will be formally dedicated this summer to the children and to the schools-to the homes and to the people of America. We have an association numbering thousands in actual paid member ships, a permanent headquarters and a program of work that should cement us, representing different groups and interests in the field of education, in- to one great common ideal of united action for the welfare of the children.
 "The National Education Associa- tion is truly factor now in the civic and educational life of this nation.
 ''The world war awakened us to a new conception of the service of edu- cation. It brought us face to face with the weaknesses in our American education.
 "The war, as nothing else could have done, brought to the attention of an indifferent public the impor tance of education. The public school machinery of the United States swung it's force into action upon the num- erous war drives; MT. Business man, who had paid his school tax rather grudgingly; MT. Banker who had scru- tinized his tax in cold and cal culating way, not quite sure that there had been value received for the dol lars paid; MT. Farmer who had fused and fumed many times because of the fads and frills of education (nothing like this when he was a boy); Mr. Labor man who too many times claim ed the schools were maintained for the capitalist children schools need ed to be more practical; Mrs Society woman who did not think the teach CT had sufficient social prestige to belong to her exclusive set; all of these groups of people had it borne in upon their conscious minds that public schools make an important link between home and society.
 ''The greatest machinery in the world in turning it's wheels into action upon the needs of the world war won an appreciation for the education of the youth of our land that promises permanent recognition of all educa-

THE SOUTHERN VOTE.

The Tmes-U Union in a recent editorial discussion
Of the franchise for women, pays many fatter-
ing compliments to the women of the South and
calls attention to the chivalrous treatment of the
women by the of the South Which shows the
editor of the Times-Union to be Of the old school
Of thought. in regard to the extension of the SUI
frage to women
The Times-Union has all the old arguments pat
As have great many of the southern newspapers
Among other things the Times-Union says:
But the South is peculiarly situated when it
comes to politics Other sections of the country
have their troubles. and difficulties but no other
part Of the country had its political population
doubled over night by the addition of millions of
an terate, childlike race. The problem was a serf-
Gus one fifty years ago-it is still serious although
it is better understood and not intolerabe as was
for a time believed. The fourteenth amendment to
the constitution gave the white men of the South
greater task than they had endured during the
war, and they have borne up bravely under it, and
made devastated section blossom like the rose
The nineteenth amendment as proposed would mean
renewal Of the most difficult problems that an
peared with the conclusion of the war between the
states. The Southern men know it, and they are
standing solidly against its adoption and they are
bearing with fortitude the imprecations which are
being hurled against them by those who do not
understand the situation. OF course the white vote
would be theoretically doubled but the negro vote
would be practically doubled while many white
women would refuse to vote.
Such an argument this refuses to hold: even
the most biased person can see that the granting
OF the ballot could not only theoretically double
the white vote, and practically double the negro
vote.
The men Of the South will give the vote to the
women of the South just as soon as they realize
that they need that vote, and no sooner

Florida Press Opinion
The Road Rights of West Florida.

The people of this section of Florida begin to
realize that they are being most shamefully ig-
nored at Tallahassee the matter Of road
ton. In consequence the roads in much the
same condition the promises ematating from the
State Capital-rotten-with immediate pros
pect Of their being anything else.
The Pensacola Journal on Thursday last in COM
mentng upon these conditions said
Whatever the outcome Of the visit Of the dele
cation to Tallahassee may be- and whether Or not
direct benefits to this section received the in
terest in good roads. which is being aroused III
West Florida is bound to work for the good of
this entire section of the state.
'One Of the chief reasons for the neglect of the
roads of West Florida have been not only lack of
funds, but lack Of inside information, not only as
to the amounts of money expended in other sec
tons of the state but the reasons for such expen-
diture, whether to match county appropriations or
for other legitimate Cor ilegtimate) reasons.
Millions of public monies are being spent in
Florida today. This money has not come as a gift
to the people, it is public appropriation, much
of which has been paid into the state fund by the
people themselves, in one way OF another. If that
money is not wisely spent, Florida will suffer.
West Florida does not ask for more than it's Just
share 1t does not seek to make any claim to
that to which it is not entitled. But there has
been great deal of unsatisfactory explanation
Of things. beating about the bush, as it We're"
AS The Journal states, this is a public matter
and the appropriations should have been equtably
made. 1t is notorious fact that such has been
done. 1t has been stated by officials that Bay
county's lamentable bond road building experience
must be cleared up by the county before the state
will give any help to this section We fail to see
wherein it will benefit anybody for the state to pen
alize Us for our mistakes in such fashion.
If the state is not going fulfill It's promises re-
garding the completion of the county line road in
conjunction with the of county funds desig-
mated and set aside by the county commissioners
Tor such purpose, let the state highway Officials
say SO, that other steps may be taken to complete
this vitality essential piece Of road, which alone
connects the Bay country with the outside world
Bay county's road trouble might have been best
settled by state highway officials. When the sub
Ject Of such settlement brought I'D and
adopted, universe satisfaction was expressed but
with the passing of months and nothing done by
the state despair has supplanted hopefulness and
bitter denunciations of and complaints against the
state highway officials are the only fruits of the
proposed be.terment of conditions and the compile
tion of the road referred to above.-st Andrews

politicians can possible manage 1t. the negro vote
will be used in the coming campaign to offset the
white mans vote in the South.
There is one way to offset the negro vote and that
is to enfranchse the women Of The South Ana
that is the certain interests go strongly
entrenched against the franchise for women.
Long ago Chief Justice Fuller of North Carolina
pointed out this menace, and urged the men of the
South to give the ballot to the women of the South
in order to insure white supremacy. Only recently

crises, warned the Of Virginia to enfranchse
their women.
The Journal believes that the Of the South
will awaken before it is too late. And when they
ere enfranchised The Journal believes that the
women of the South will go to the polls and cast
their votes to save America from domination by any
clique Of interests opposed to American ideals.
