REMOVAL OF THE TURKS.

The thousands Of people in this country who have been intensely in- tcrestcd in the discussion of the re- moval of the Turks from Europe, and who have felt almost personally the sufferings of the Armenians. will he glad to note the stand taken by the United States in the advocacy of such freeing of Europe from the influence of the "unspea ka ble.' Liberal terri- tOrial treatment of Armenia and crea- ton of an international commission for the Dardanelles are included in the statement of the views of this country on the Turkish situation for warded to the Allied governments
 Thus the United States. opposes England's position in the one matter of the removal of the Turk, despite the possibility that such a move might bring about q Moslem uprising as sug- eested in France, and in spite of Eng lands acknowledged fear that advo- cacN of such course would be re- garded by India as a gross breach of SOOu ldlth OH HcI part. LII lIllS ldH q $ plan to permit the Turks to remain in Constantinople vera embodied strict provisions which, it was believed, would make impossible a repetition of the horrors of which the Turks have been the perpetrators. Such regula- tions, the substance of which was in- dicated rather than detailed. do not satisfy the people of the United States. Those who have heard men of Ar menia tell of it's people and whose opinion of them has changed from ignorant pity for their supposedly con- stitutional weakness. to admiration and sympathy for a people valiant CTS when not deprived even of the means of self protection, will be in hearty sympathy with the phase of the statement of views of the United States which advocates removing the Turks from Europe entirely The former mista ken conception has been changed recently, and the new knowl- edge of the race which has suffered so much has inspired generous aid from this country. 1t is believed that the Arm enians themselves will be the time comes when courage, energy and effort on their part will make such aid unnecessary

ANDERSON MUST EXPLAIN.

The general habit of deprecating the honesty Of legislative bodies is admitted. One has often wondered why members of such bodies did not take personal cognizance of some of them, and express their individual i'csentrent
 IL IS satisfactory to note that out of the broad indefinite charges made by Superintendent Anderson of the Anti saloon League against New York As- sembiNmcn some good may come. The Assembly has decided that the man must appear before it and an- swer for asss.iling the integrity and insulting the honor of it's members as he is said to have done. The Assem- bly, has summoned Anderson to ap- pear before it's Judiciary Committee and the fate of the person who has caused so much alarm in the hearts of those who have prohibitions well fare at heart will be left, for time in the hands of these gentlemen.
 It has been said that Anderson was
 pOSS Ol tue New s1 Ofk ASSCh DlI, and the character of his leadership haS been frequently denounced. The words of the Anti-Saloon man have not tended to leave the impression that he feared antasonizing hat body in the slightest, and his continued defiance and apparent readiness to justify his remarks gives the impress sion that he may have something in reserve which will prove of a sensa- tional character. That the body re- sents it's reputed subserviance to .An- 6erson. and possesses some confi- dence, at least, in the falsity of the mans assertions. is shown by it's ac- tion of yestel day.
 It is sincerely to be hoped, in the interest of the country generally, that Anderson will be quieted whatever else results from he decision of the q 'tmaligned body.'

ONE. IN \ THOUSAND.

The remark that one gains inspira- lion in the most unsuspectcd quarters is trite, but a remarkable instance ot it's truth comes as one of the features of the news of a Chester, Pa. washer woman's sudden inheritance of some thing like $2,000,000. She was sum- moned from her tubs to hear the less she was drying her hands care fully, for she was a good washer woman. as the facts were told of her.
 The fact that she started immedi- ately that she would not neglect her work is not surprising, for after fifteen years of happy life, content with her fairly comfortable lot. 1t would not occur to her that any especial change would be pleasant
 Nor is it remarkable that the good appoint the people who had been giv- ing her employment for years. Grati- tude is not dead and evidence of it's existence should cause no surprise.
 But the inspiration comes when the final words of the remarkable and re- markably fortunate woman arc read. All that had gone before were impul- sive expressions. But at last, when she had finally contemplated the possi- bility of the arrival of time when she would quit york;: when she per ceived that possibly she might join the class of persons who more or less suc- cessfully seek happiness through riches for which they have not had to Ia Dor, this woman hits the heights of thoughtfulnesS. Herein lies the in spiration which will be appreciated by all who have had anything to do with domestic household arrangem and tHe provisions in regard thereto.
 The woman had been washing for certain people for years and, re- ferring to the time when she might abandon the moist tools of her trade, she says: And then l am going to try and find these people another waSherwoman.

Room for improvement is admitted as in the case of all industries early in their careers, but it is submitted that word of appreciation for the success along right lines which the industry has achieved and stronger bit of praise for the real good it has accomplished in helping almost every due tho "mONieS.
 The desire of operators of motion picture houses is naturally to give an entertainment which will interest the spectators at all times. It is no easy decision for them to make to per init some of the time usually de- voted to entertainment to be given to the advancement of cause of which the spectators presumably have heard, and of which many may have grown a bit weary. Those watching the screen are in sympathy with the good work in progress, probably. but the mass does not always become more kindly disposed toward the thcater when an interest ing show is interrupted to inform the public that financial aid is want ed.
 It s therefore. something of sacrifice on the part of the directors of those houses to allow the use Of their screen for such purposes, and 10 them is due the thanks of persons who appreciate their motive and who realize that their contribution to the public good is real

THE, MOVIES " AID.

John b. Rockefeller has expressed publicly appreciation for the help the theaters and motion picture houses in New York city have been giving the Y. W. C. A. drive for funds in denying the statement attributed to him that there were too many immoral motion picture shows"
 The days when the fanatics re- ark. "Thc Devil loves the movies" was needed have passed An in stance is recalled when one of these over-zealous persons, having gone to some lengths to tell of the evils at tendant upon the picture show. added "I-I never attended one of them"
 In these days one is inclined to smile at like assertions and to seek and find presentations on the screen which have a decided artistic appeal.

D,ANNUNZIO AND WILSON.

President Woodrow Wilson and tbriele D'Annunzio bear rescm- Ince one to the other that seems to W stronger as events develop. Dis Ilch is immateritl in the compari- |. the likeness had it's inception in ease, of the President when he ked upon the League of Nations h as his lifes aim, and with the b.rior poet when he took his inn sive astion regarding Plume. n AApnunzio perscnifies the impnl- sness fathered by the idealism of 1 calm teacher. and tcth are in Ifble in their adherence to that tl The Italian expresses himself activity; the American in strenu- use of the pen which he wields as as the author brandishes the |rd.
 Lad President Wilson been horn of atin race his words would. have nd the rhythm of inspired poetry; would have been a greater war
 than D'Annunzio whose power
 Id te more effective if tempered some of the coolnesS character
 of the American. D'Annunzio, h in this country, would have dght more impetuosity into his po- al life than is characteristic of
 President, but the parallel would e remained at the basis of the two bonalities.
 'Annunzio's proclamation yester-
 in which he says "Every step of
 command will be toward one su- he aim-the annexation of Plume taly,' recalls ir stantly the declar- n of President Wilson in which he tessed his determination to fight

AM. LEGION WANTS
Executive Committed Decides to Ask Congress for Bonus at S1.oO Rate for Each Day in Service.

WaShin gton. March 23.-Thc exec utive committee of the American Le Sion last night put up to congress the proposal to pay adjusted com pensation to former service men and women at the rate of Sl.50 for every day of service. This action reversed previous vote taken by the com mittee which recorded 31 state rep resentatives in favor of the leSisla tive committees plan for cash re- lief at $1 a day, which was adopted as a substitute for the original pro- posal of $50 month.
 The com mmittees determination to boost relief followed a general re- view of composite bill which the Legion will present to the house ways and means committee NedneS- day, including privileged land settle ment. home building aid and eNtcn- sion of vocational training.
 All provisions of the bill, except award of cash based on the period of service. were adopted unanimo ous- ly. Strong opposition developed last night. however, to the $50 month plan and by a vote of 33 to II. the demand was fixed at Sl.50 day.
