CHICAGO, Feb 24.-The Liquor re-
bellion" in Iron conuty, in the upper
Michigan peninsula, today apparently
had subsided in the face of the ap-
proach Of Major A. V. Daldymple, fed
eral prohibition enforcement chief for
the six central western states, and a
picked force of 18 armed assistants,
reports from there indicated.
The foreign born element, compos-

ed greatly excited over reports re-
garding the possible use of federal

Much home made wine and other

brush. Quantities of it were report
ed to have been poured out.

Major Dalrymple's assistant, Leo J.

Agitation Against Turks
in Constantinople Meets
With Opposition in Press
(By Associated Press)

LONDON, Feb. 24-Agitation in fav-
or of expelling the Turks from Con-
stantinople, which has been a con-
spicuous feature in one section of the
press during the last few days and
which has had the support of religious
and philanthropic bodies, met a coun-
ter blast from another section of the
London newspaper world today, which
contended the question was one OF
such importance that it could not be
settled on sentimental considera tions,
but must be left to the matured de-
liberation of the supreme allied coun-
Gil.
In a lengthy argument the Tele-
graph asserted that British statesman
ship has neither the duty nor inter
est to expel he Sultan from Constan-
tinople" and expressed the opinion
that agitation to this end was "ill-in-
spired and i'll considered"
I'VE counsel those who sincerely
support it," the newspaper continued.
ito give more unprejudiced study to
new factors in the problem especially
Great Britain's position as power
which must not disregard the feelings
of many millions of it's moslem sub
jects."
The Daily News which has always
been staunch champion of the Amer
leans and a supporter of Gladstone's
demand to "sweep the Turks of Eur
ope," also calls for consideration of
the problem in the light of present
circumstances. 1t says the real ques-
ton is the weight to be attached to
warnings of Moslem unrest as re-
suit of the expulsion of the Turks
from their spiritual capital.

Horrors! Chicago May Be
Movieless; Result of Demands
(By Associated Press)

CHICAGO, Feb. 24.-Owners of most

Chicago today announced they would
close Feb 30, unless the moving pic
ture operators union dismissed its
business agent and modified demands.

would cease delivery of reels after
Feb. 80, thus forcing to close those
theatres that otherwise woud have re-
mained open.

the owners announcement are the
number of machine operators each
theatre should employ and an alleged
attempt by the business agent, Tom

school children of the United States
have physical defects which are most.
iy remediable. This shows that the
business of keeping the school child
rem of the country in Good physical
condition Is a disgrace to the nation.
EVERY day makes more apparent
the fact that the most vital part of our
educational work is health education.
The public school is the chief agency
through which this education must be
given and practiced in sane healthful
living.

a serious menace to western Europe,
while Premier Lloyd George and Nitti

middle ground has been found on

the British view, but Rumania is re-
ported to have asked guarantees from
the allies relative to the risks in
