views stated by President Wilson in
a note wherein the President replied to
the recent request of the French Gov
eminent for the views of the United
States on the tentative decisions reach
ed by he Allied Powers regarding the
Turkish settlement. The President
makes light of the "holy war" fear
expressed by the British statesman,
saying: at cannot be believed that
the feelings. of the Mohammedan peo-
pies, who not only witnessed the de-
feat of Turkish power without protest,
but even materially assisted in the
defeat, will now so resent the expur-
sion of the Turkish Government as to
make complete reversal Of policy on

Western Confectioners Association,
says that the last few months have

This means that production is in
ereasing and labor must become
more efficient to hold a job. Mr..
Louis states the candy industry will
enjoy the biggest business in his
tory this fall as there will be a tre-
mendous demand and no surplus. But
he says, Now is the time to fill
your gasoline tanks and step on the
throttle, realizing that your sales
men have got to work as they have
not worked since before the war to

The time is again here when it is
becoming necessary to SELL good
