IT'S UP TO ALLIES
Entente Must Take Aggressive
Stand With Turks.
Military Experts at Washington
Say Crisis Serious. =

Washington, March 9.-The allies
must take an aggressive stand in their
relations with the Turks in the Con-
stantinople area apd make a consider
able show of military strength if spor-
adic clashes between allied and Turk
forces are to be avoided, in the opin-
ion of military experts here today.
The attitude of the Turks toward
the European troops in Turkey has
become increasingly hostile, according
to advices here.
The strained situation originally was
the result of the open hostility of the
Turkish national forces, led by Musta-
pha Renal and the recent wholesale
massacres of Armenians by the Turk
nationalists. 1t is also believed by off
Gals here that the Turkish government
is playing it's old game of international
intrigue.
The Turkish regular army IS report
ed 20 be $4,000 men strong, mainly
around Constantinople and in the in
terror of Anatolia.
The nationalists are reported to
have in the vilayet of Adm from TO-
900 to $4,000 troops and about 5000
in the interior of Anatolia. Many also
are Feported"to be deserving the reEu-
lar army for the nationalist cause.

of Brown was part of a general con-
spiracy among the ali defendants to
drive all striking sinners and their
sympathizers from the Bisbee Warren
mining district.
The defense is expected to try: to
prove that. the strikers had conspired
to tie up the Arizona mines; that they
were dis1oyal and that the deportation
was necessary as a means of defend
ing themselves as well as defending
the United States government against

McGIFFERT BACK AT HALL
City Commissioner Visits office After
Pneumonia Illness.

Robert McGiffert city health COM
missioner, came down to his office this
morning for the first time since he
was taken ill with influenza nearly a
month ago.
McGiffert prowled around thel city
hall like a smalfboy on his initial visit
to a zoo. He was glad 90 get back and
it wasn't necessary for him to say so.
Every time he took a step, however,
he steadied himself on his cane a mo-
ment as if contemplating which way
to turn next.
I'm still weak in the knees" he
said. apologetically.
McGiffert became i'll with the flu
while he was making strenuous eff
forts, in cooperation with other mem
bers of the city health board, to check
the spread of the disease. He was
taken to the emergency hospital which
he helped to establish. The flu de-
veloped into pneumonia and for a time
his condition was extremely serious.
But the spirit that triumphed at
Belleau Wood again came off vic
torious and again his voice is heard
in the affairs of the city government.

babe had died at birth and of natural

bore her out this afternoon. She will

Romance in France.
The romance which resulted in the
birth of the baby had its inception
while Miss Crews was at an American
base hospital in France. She was cap
tivated by the Chicago physician con-
nected with the hospital and she told
police investigators she loved him and
believed in him.
Further she stated that the medical
officer had deceived her into beIiev-
ing he was unmarried. but that after
her condition became of such a nature
that an explanation was necessary, he
notified her he chad a confession to
make-that the confession might be
shocking to her." The confession was
to the effect that he had wife living
in Chicago.
Soon afterward, Miss Crews re-
turned to the capital. She says she
made arrangements for its care. that
a nurse knew of its coming. but when
the baby was born it was dead.
Placed in Trunk.
In explaining why she had placed it
in a trunk, the girl nurse explained
she INTENDED TO nave 1t buried as soon
as her condition became such as to
enable her to leave the hospital. Dis
covery of the baby was made when a
physician was called to Miss Crews's
apartment after the birth of the child.
The girl made no secret to him of the
baby's birth and she told him it was to
be found in the trunk.
Probably the most shocked of the
girls friends is a young inferno con-
nected with one of the hospitals who,
it is said, the girl was engaged to
