BANKS ASSETS GOOD
BASIS FOR NEW BANK
1t Was Reported at Meeting of Those
Interested in Forming Institution to
Replace Barre S. B. & T. Co.

A meeting of number of people
more or less interested in the disposi-
tion of the Barre Savings Bank &
Trust Co assets and the establishing
of new bank in Barre to take over
the same was held in the city council
chamber last evening, about a score of
people being present. After discussing
the situation at some length it was
the unanimous opinion that something
ought to be done to take over the
proposition rather than to let the as
sets of the bank be liquidated, and to
this end committee of three was
appointed to see if any of the local
banks were prepared to assume the
same. This committee is James Mae
kay, f. w Bisbee and T. II. Rogers.
1t was stated at the meeting that if
the old bank could be re-opened under
new charter and new arrangement,
or taken over by one of Barre's pres
ent banks in the near future, depos-
itors could be paid in full; but, on
the other hand, if left to the long
drawn out process of liquidation there
might be question as to their reCeiv-
ing as much.

There

London Aug. l6 (By the Associated

concerning the last meeting of the al

Questions were before it, he said

The unity of the allies, Mr.. Lloyd
George asserted, was guarantee for
the peace of Europe, and it was mat
ter of great qualification that at the
end of the meeting resolution was
passed not merely that the alliance be
continued but declaring that the spirit
of the alliance was as strong as ever.
Mr.. Lloyde George reviewed the his
tory of the Silesian question, which
he said had given the greatest anxiety
and referred to the plebiscite in which,
roughly, -elevenths of the popula-
tion voted to remain with Germany
and the other four elevenths for un-
ion with Poland. The dispute ranged
around very important industrial
triangle, the prime minister went on.
The towns were German and the
villages Polish, he pointed out, but
taking the area as whole the sub
stantial majority was German. The
Italian experts agreed with Great Brit
ain, Mr.. Lloyd George said, but the
French differed. Great Britain. France
and Italy have the same interest,
to do justice between the dis
putants, he declared, but the French
were moved by the ques-

TURKEY IN ASIA THREATENED
Unless Turks Permit Foreigners to
Assist Them.

Williamstown, Mass, Aug. l6.-Not
only is Turkey in Europe a thing OF
the past, but Turkey in Asia will share
the same fate unless the Turks pocket
their national pride and allow foreign
ers to assist them in the work of re-
construction" Stephen Panaretoff.
former Bulgarian minister to the
United States said in lecture before
the Institution of Politics at Williams
college to-day. After tracing attempts
made by the Turks themselves to bring
about reforms, NJ. Panaretoff said
Whatever notifications may be
made in the actually existing terri
torial arrangements of what was form
erly called European Turkey, it is not
to be presumed that Turkish authority
will be established there. The sub
ject of reforms, is however, interesting
in showing what efforts have been
made to save the Turkish empire from
decadence and how futile they have
proved to be.
In Asia Minor there is still quite
large area of territory left to the
Turks where their authority will be
maintained. In this territory there is
a considerable number of Christians who
need to be protected against misrule
and arbitrariness and their civil and
political. interests safeguarded. win
the Turks be able TO organize and CON
duct their government so as to sat
isfy the Christians by assuring to them
real privileges and equal treatment
The past experience with Turkish pro-
mses does not inspire great hopes for
the future.
IF the Turks, taught by the catas
trophe that has befallen their empire.
wish really to preserve within their
power what is left of it. they should
frankly and sincerely apply TO Europe
for help TO reorganize. They should
pocket their national pride and allow
foreigners TO assist them in the work
of reconstruction. For them to m
agine that they will be able TO work
out a Turkish civilization or a Turkish
reformation on Pan Islamic or pan
Turanisn principles is a delusion."
