IN TURKEY REFORM
SPRINGS ETERNAL


Turkey bids fair to "come back
in limited sense at least, as a re-
suit Of the proposed revision Of the
Sevres treaty that dismembered the
Ottoman empire after the World war.
1t will be changed Turkey, to be
sure, but change is not new In the
country that inherited MOhammed's
religious empire. <-Paradoxically, Tur-
key, though 1t has tradition Of ma
tional inertia, also is q land Of kalei-
doscopic reforms and may be said to
react. to reforms more discriminate
ingly than any other country In OF out
of Christendom. The Turks have
adopted some reforms bodily and some
partially, and have rejected others
fatty even when the prestige Of the
Caliph and Allah's ministers was be-
hind them.
Turkey began Its existence on q
foundation Of reform, the empire In
heriting the comprehensive reshaping
of the religious and social world In
stituted by Mohammed. It, went

States, for its eighteenth amend

but part, SO to speak, Of the organic

world. Mohammed and the government
which took up his mantel were re-
formers The legal maximum number
of wives was placed at four.
Even the jokes Of coffee and tobac-
co prohibition that have gone the
rounds of the American vaudeville
stage came near being a reality In
Turkey. Mohammedan scholars full
minated against the steaming cup !;
and one sultan went so far as to pro-
hibit the use Of tobacco, fearing that
it was taking. too firm hold on his
people. But The populace refused to
have the prophets covenant changed
and the ban was raised. ~
Though the reported passing Of the
fez is looked upon as reform which
to western eyes would remove some
thing as distinctively Turkish as the

form effected less than hundred
years ago; and staunch old Moslems

warming as the reckless reformers cast
aside their dignified tur5ans for the
new bauble. To the Turkish Tories
of those days the fez travelled in com
pany sufficiently disreputable to damn
it utterly. 1t was. introduced forcibly
into the army by the Sultan Mahmoud

century along with tight European

RHINE ATTRACTIVE
 TO TANK SOLDIERS

Washington, June 27.-American soldiers on the Rhine do not want to come home. Many of them in- sist on re-enlisting, and as it is the policy of the War Department not to refuse re-cnlistment of men with good records, the practice is proving embarrassing in the face of the ab- solute necessity of reducing the strength of the army to the size ,decreed by congress.
 ~ The anumber of officers in the American army of occupation has been reduced to that required for a force of about 7500 enlisted men, but the enlisted strength in Ger many remains at about 27000 men. The original intention was to have an enlisted strength on the Rhine Of approximately 5000
 Secretary Weeks explained yester- day that it was expected that the enlisted force on the Rhine would be reduced to about 7,500 by July |, when the reduction of the army must begin, but there has been a general inclination shown by the dOugbboys over there to remain in Germany. With few exceptions, he said, men have applied for re-en- listment.

 A magnifying glass, however, dis closed the fact that the bill had originally been of the one dollar denomination and that it had been raised. The work was so deftly executed that it would defy the de- lection of the human eye, and for this reason, Chief Pitcock says the city may be flooded with them. Five were reported to headquar-
 tcfs yesterday afternoon and the detectives arrested man whose money did not look right. Close questioning, however, convinced the police that he had no connection
 with the bad money and he was permitted to go.
 Captain Pitcock said last night that he knew of no way in which the public might protect itself against such cleverly changed money
 as is now in circulation, and he
 added that the police would bend their utmost energies to apprehend he person or persons responsible 1 for it's circulation MT. PitcOck said. however, that inasmuch as his own and the investigation of his men. indicated that the least raised
