Kemaly Bey, member of the Turkish
armistice commission and former am
bassador to Berlin, said in an inter

Asked whether the terms of the
treaty had been communicated to him,

ferees consider that action superflu-
Gus. The world, however, will be sur

President Wilson'S principles has been
violated.
1.-THE treaty is essentially a British
product. 1t aims to surround Turkey,
cutting the communications of the
Moslem world.

But what use is talk? Our fate
was decided in, London. The whole
world is prejudiced against Turkey.

TO END OLD WAR.
Railways and Waterways Must
Cooperate in Future.
Land Lines Are Now Operating
at Capacity Limit.

ST. Louis, April = 1s.-The United
States must develop and encourage her
inland waterways transportation if she
expects to retain her position in the
world of commerce. This warning was
sounded by speakers at the convention
of the Mississippi Valley WATERWAYS
association here today.
The railroads have reached the linn
it of their capacity. it was emphasized.
Fifty Years Behind Europe.
James E. Smith of this city, presi-
dent of the association, asserted Amer
lea compared with Europe of fifty
years ago, when that continent discov-
cred the necessity of using waterways
as carriers and built artificial chan
nels. I'VE have natural channels" he
said. but it appears we don't appre-
ciate their value as carriers of our
products.
Brigadier Gen. F. T. Hines. chief of
the transportation division of the war
department. which has control over
government inland waterways trans
portation, in an address asserted the
railroads welcomed the revival of wa
ter transportation as necessary
ally" in the solution of the transpoF-
tation problems.
Railways Want Water Help.
Commerce has a greater, more ur-
gent need for waterways today than
ever before" he declared. The pres
enl ran SITUATION Is SuIIlclent evidence
of this. The railroad today views the
waterway not as an undesirable com
petitor, but as a very necessary ally
in the solution of the enormous ma
tional transportation problems which
we are now facing.
1.-The demands which the railroads
are being called upon to meet are
greatly in excess of their combined ia
cilities. There is an existing unsup-
piled demand for 100000 freight cars
alone. Railroad men have admitted
that every locomotive plant in the
country would have to work at capac-
ity for three years to enable the rail-
roads to even catch up with the ac-
fnal demands now m q de lnnn tham

Means Large Armies.
France must maintain an army of
100000 men until enemy countries
show their good will by executing the
terms of their treaties, in the opinion
of government officials, according to
newspapers here. Plans under con-
temptation call for $4,000 conscripts
constantly under training, eighteen
months service being required of each
man.
Wages equal to those paid Industrial
workers, less the cost of food and
lodging provided by the government,
will be paid enlisted men and con-

bills to carry out this program will be
introduced in the chamber some time
in June.

There was a certain GOODNESS be-

George at the opening of the meeting,
but 1t vanished in a short time, and ut

Raymond Poincare, former president
of the French republic, in an article
