important encircling movement by
the Greek right wing is reported here
to have cut the retreat of the Turk
ish nationalists toward Angora from
Eski-Shehr. the railway junction
point captured by the Greeks in their
sweeping offensive. Tuesday evening.
This turning movement is being car
rfed out to the south and east Of Eski-
Shehr
The Eski-Shehr defensive line at
Kovalitsa and Aughin, where three
months ago the first Greek offensive
was checked, now is declared to be
completely isolated and the Turks
within the area in question are con-
sidered to be virtually prisoners. The
number Of Turkish prisoners actually
in Greek hands has reached 10000, it
was stated here today.
Mustapha Kemal Pasha. the Turk
ish nationalist leader. is said in Greek
quarters to have escaped the encir-
cling movement and to be fleeing to-
wards Angora.
Here in Smyrna the population is
enthusiastically celebrating the Greek
victory. The Greek warships in the
harbor fired celebrative salute at
midday.
King Constantine, who went to the
front earlier this week to join the
Greek staff at Ushak. is hurrying on
to Kutaia. which was taken by the
Greeks in their march on Eski-Shehr

"Nothing More Dignihed."
There certainly could be nothing
more dignified, more patriotic or OF
greater service historically tnan the
opening of Mount Vernon on sundays.

pointed in charge Of the home. we
feel that it is a matter that interests
American citizenship in genera. anu

public art galleries and museums
are open on Sundays in nearly all Sec

not be considered institutions for COM

Impetus was given the solving Of the
local street car problem by the busi-
ness men Of the city last night when
the joint committee of commercial
and civic organizations on the street
railways situation was formed in the
Board Of Trade rooms in The Star
building. The organizations repre-
sented on the committee are the
Washington Board Of Trade, the
Chamber of Commerce. the Merchants
and Manufacturers Association and
the City Club. The meeting last night
was held for the purpose Of organiza-
tion.

the Chamber of Commerce was elected

nation of the joint committee and
OF it's proposed activities at hearings
before both bodies.
Adopt Platform.
The platform of the committee.
adopted last night, follows:
Active interest in the street rail-
way problem has been manifest on
one hand by the railway officials and
public, through mediums representing
patrons in the name of various Citi-
zens' Associations in the city. 1t is
fact that the membership. of the
large civic and the commercial or
ganizations have until recently given
only occasional consideration. through
their Organizations. to this important
subject.
TT is the belief of this joint COM
mittee that the street railway prob
lem Is OF fundamental Importance in
the development of the community,
and that the serious housing problem
now existing is closely related to the
transportation question.
1T is believed that the health, hap
piness and prosperity of our people
and city as whole are materially
dependent upon satisfactory solu-
, tion of the local transportation ques-
tion.
I'VE are further of the opinion that
the business and professional men
comprising the membership of the or
ganizations represented in this COM
mittee. due to their knowledge of the
financial and business questions, as
we'll as the needs and rights of the
public. are qualified and competent to
give fair consideration to all aues-
tions involved.
Therefore, it is decided that this
body, representing the Board of Trade.
Chamber of Commerce. Merchants and
Manufacturers Association and the
City Club. organize into a committee
to be known as the Joint committee
of commercial and civic organizations
on street railways of the District of

tion are expected to result. One pos
sibility suggested was that of an ar
mored deck on the top of the hull in
addition to that just below the water-
line.
. Some naval officers made no effort
to disguise their surprise that the
Ostfriesland.f fell q victim to an aerial
attack. Others however. had said
that II large bombs landed close by
the ship the hull would give way.
They pointed out that the one-ton
bombs contained $50 pounds of
TINT. against 230 pounds in a tor
pedo and 800 pounds in the larger
mines.
!! The sudden sinking of the Ostfries-
land by the Army bombers prevented
the carrying out of further expert
ments planned by the Navy. When
1t was found that the 1.100-pound
bombs dropped in the early morning
had failed to damage the protective
deck. orders were given to drop on
the ship fourteen-inch shells loaded
with sand instead of explosive to
determine the penetrating power of
such projectiles. Three transatlantic
NC type planes, which had reached
the scene with 1.0O0-pound bombs
were ordered not to launch them at
the target, but to proceed back to
the naval base here to load the shells.
Before they could take off, however.
the target had been sunk.
