Requested to Name Delegates
on Straits Commission

CONSTANT1NOPLE, Aug. 20 (By
The Associated Press) The American
Chamber of Commerce for the Levant
through Rear Admiral Mark l.. Bristol
commander of the United States naval
forces in Turkey, has forwarded a pc
tition to the State Department, in
Washington, urging the United States
to name it's delegates in the Straits
Commission as soon as possible, there
by giving American interests hearing
in the framing of the shipping regula-
tions for the Dardanelles and the Bos-
porus.
The treaty of Sevres was so broadly
and loosely drawn up that the Straits
and Financial commissions created by
it have unlimited powers over naviga-
ton and customs charges. The treaty
does not give the, United States the
privilege of membership in the Finan-
cial Commission. Consequently, Amer
lean business interests here are espe-
cially anxious for immediate American
participation in the Straits Commits

A Poor Womans Letter
A poor woman in Cochise county,
Ariz., who heard of Mr.. Meredith
and his plan Of helping boys, wrote
him to see if she could make APP
LEGATION for them and conduct pig
raising in their name while they
grew up, and on learning that the
,loys had to do it personally, she
wrote the following letter to Mr..
Meredith, acknowledging receipt OF
the blanks and instructions and said
she would save the papers till her
boys were old enough to go into it,
Then she added, Il want to make
up for my children what l failed to
get when grew up | was born and
raised on a farm. Was the Oldest OF

farm work is, is expressing it mildly.

Never Had Dollar of Her Own
81 can truthfully say l never had
a pig, hen, calf, or a dollar to call
my own. My father was one of these
renter farmers who thought he
wasn't able, and if he gave us our
grub, few clothes and pair of
Brogan shoes and sent us to school
two or three months in the winter,
he was doing his share. My brother
Just younger than I, came in for a
little cotton crop in order to keep
him from leaving home He also got
a pony and saddle.

years old and like all other poor
farmer girls went to the city to work.
When l was nineteen my mother
died more because of the hard work
than sickness. She needed my help
but l knew wasn't getting a fair
chance at home, therefore, stayed
away until it was too late, If was
to do it over l would sacrifice every
thing and stay at home to help
mother. In order to get me to come
home and take charge of everything
my father offered me my first cotton
crop l kept house for father, the
nine children younger than myself,
also an aged grandfather and grand
mother who lived with u.s. / raised
more chickens, ducks, turkeys and
guineas than were ever raised on
fathers farm. / MIXED three or four
cows twice a day, besides picked my
onw town and a half bales of cotton,
which was sold for 3 cents pound.
That was in 1914 when prices were
low.

get old enough.
"You are doing noble work, Mr..

cuse me for writing a personal letter

that like the good work you are do
ing for farm boys and girls"
