DISCUSS PLANS FOR
BLIND INSTITUTION

Mrs. j. B. Kerr and Mrs. H. B.
Torrey, of Portland, members Of
the advisory committee appointed
recently by the state board of con-
troll to assist in working out the de-
tails for the proposed new Oregon
Employment Institution for the
Adult Blind, spent yesterday in Sa-
lem conferring with officials.
The tentative plans for the plant
were discussed, and the women gave
a number of suggestions as to how
the institution should be conducted.
Mrs. Kerr said it was her opinion
that the plant should not be con-
fined to the instruction Of inmates
along commercial lines, but that it
should have the advantages of a
club where blind folks from all
parts of the state may congregate.

that name on the Continent. Its
name is even pronounced there &C.
cording to the French method. Never
did the dinner coat receive high
honors until the Prince of Wales re-
turned from this country. Once ac-
counted too informal for dress and
too formal for everyday wear. the
coat has now been honored with the
favor of royalty.
Did the Prince find the more elas-
tic American view OF the dinner coat
so convenient that he wants to spread
this doctrine OF comfort among HIS
countrymen? There may be advan-
tages in it. But what about its ac-
companying problems? How about
the minutes of unsatisfed specula-
tion as to whether the dinner is going
to be too large for the black tie and
the short coat? How about the un-
comfortable sensation of being the
only man present without coattails?
In these thoughts is often concealed
the bitter that poisons the sweet of
comfort. Or will the Prince Of Wales
make hard and fast rule to guide
his followers?

Turks Give Up Western Thrace.

The Turks have lost the first points
in the demands which they presented
to the Lausanne conference. They
demanded a plebiscite in western
Thrace. Had they won, this terri
tory, now held by Greece, ultimately
Turkey and the Allies would have
been unable to carry out their prom
ise to the Bulgarians at Neuilly to
give them an outlet to the Agean
Sea and a Bulgarian port at Dedea-
catch. Against this demand the Turks
found not only a united western
Europe but, singularly enough,
united Balkans.
In restoring eastern Thrace to the
Turks Europe has apparently de-
cided that it has reached the limit OF
their allowance OF European terri
tory. Western Thrace is the narrow
strip of land on the northern coast
OF the lEgean extending from Mount
Olympus on the west to the Gallipoll
the tdbl.
After the Balkan war it was di-
vided between Greece and Bulgaria,
and by treaties at Paris it was
awarded with the addition of eastern
Thrace to Greece. Within its boun-
daries lie several small ports having
a considerable trade with the United
States and rich tobacco producing
region in which American interests
are largely represented.
A plebiscite OF western Thrace
would undoubtedly result strongly in
favor OF the Turks. II was a trick
OF the gods which had in charge the
distribution OF mankind TO place in
eastern Thrace, far remote from
Greece, preponderance OF Greeks
and in western Thrace, far away from
Turkey, a large Turkish population.
The Turks OF western Thrace are
among the most progressive OF their
race; KEMAL himself was born there,
as were many Of the leaders who
cverthrew the rule Of ABDUL HAND
and established the Young Turks in
power. A vote Of the inhabitants
would have given western Thrace to
Turkey. On the other hand. had a
plebisclte been granted in eastern
Thrace before the recent Grecian ex-
odus the vote would have been for
union with Greece.
AS a result OF the action Of the
conference Greece will retain west
ern Thrace, which will be especially
valuable in her efforts to rebuild her
fortunes. Bulgaria will too recover
her former Egean port. She would
very likely have received the same
concession II Turkey had been per-
mitted to occupy western Thrace.
But II would have been at the ex-
pense Of Bulgarian alliance with

Near East Concessions.
Lien on RIGHTS Formerly
Owned by Germany.

To THE New YoRk HERALD: Negotia-
tions are reported whereby American oil
interests will be admitted to one-quarler
participation in the Mosui fields. A
serious obstacle to this proposal is that
the Turkish Nationalists claim the field
as part of their original empire.
A still more serious consideration
ought to be borne In mind: What has
become of the national interest OF the
United States in all German overseas
property, public or private? There are
those who think our failure to ratify the
Versailles treaty lost America her equi-
ties in these properties in inundated re-
gions. In the words of Story in the

parties. and cannot therefore interfere

DR.. Nicholas Murray Butler. presideDr
of Columbia University. in his annual
report for 1922 expresses misgivings as
10 several present day tendencies of
public thought and conduct
In, mood of seeming pessimism he
mourns that the family and The church
are failing to bear their share OF re-
sponsibility for education, evading "what
is primarily a parental and family
privilege" and a religious duty. He
says that Ii family and church did their
full duty or anything approaching It,
many OF the severe criticisms now
brought against schools and colleges
would disappear.
As to the financial situation of Column
tia, DIR. Butler says that despite lean
years and years of great business uncer-
tainty, more than $23. 200. 900 of the $33,-
OO0,0 900, estimated six years ago as re-
quired for the proper development Of the
university, has been paid in or pledged,
and that the remaining $4,000. 900 will
surely be secured. He says that while
at the present time minimum salary
for full professors Is $4,000, 1t has been
recommended to the trustees that ten
PROFESSIONAL positions at $4,000 be
created. twenty-five positions at $500
and that all other professors be paid
$4,000. He discusses at length the
building program.
But most attention will be attracted
to his comment on what he considers the
evil spirit OF journalism. He says:
1.-THE spirit and temper of journalism,
which may perhaps be fairly described
as day to dayness. Is the besetting vice
of the present day and generation. It
Is the enemy Of constant and continuing
interest In any serious subject. and it
elevates superficially to the plane Of
an occupation We have a. our disposal
a quick record OF contemporary happen
ings Of more or less interest and impor-
tance, ana an abundance Of critical COM

calculable gain 70 civilization and to

The China Famine Fund To-day.

The China Famine Fund, Of which
THOMAS w. LAMONT Is chairman, has
worked out splendid plan for the
perpetuation of it's work now that
there is no longer need for its SER
vices in the distribution of direct
relief. as there was in 1921 and the
early months of this year. 1t has
100000 in its treasury out OF
s7,750,000 contributed by Americans
to meet China's need, and this money
is to be used to endow research de-
partments in Marking University and
In Peking University, in which the
causes of famines in China, practi-
cable methods to prevent them, and
means of relief will be studied.
Famine strikes somewhere in China
every year. Some years its ravages
are not so frightful as they are in
other years. To mitigate the misery
and to save the lives OF hundreds of
thousands of human beings in 1921
and this year were notable accom-
plishments of the China Relief Fund;
il by stimulating research and de-
vising systems of relief it can avert
such famines in years TO come the
fund will accomplish one of the great
est works for humanity that men
have ever undertaken.
The China Relief Fund has al
ready justified the confidence Ameri-
cans reposed in 1t. 1t is now pre-
pairing a work which may inscribe
its name in as honorable a place
among the permanent benefactors of
the race as the place it has won
among organizations formed to meet
grave emergencies.

Royalty for the Dinner Coat.

Word comes from London that the
Prince OF Wales Is following the ex-
ample OF his illustrious grandfather,
EDWARD VII. Of England. in setting
styles for men. Just now he is show
ing special partiality to the dinner
coat, which has always been more
popular in this country than in
Great Britain.
Did the visit of the Prince OF
Wales to the United States make
him such an admirer OF the dinner
coat that he is now engaged In i'm
pressing its convenience on his coun-
trymen? That universal garment is
of course of British origin: 1t was a
London tailor who first took the rad :
ical step of abolishing the coattails.
One expert recently put the date OF
the first importation Of this style OF
dress coat into New York at about
1885.
The land to which it was carried
adopted the new fashion with an in
discriminating cordiality unknown to
this day In England. The dinner
coat became, as it were, the evening
dress OF the country. Seven men out
OF ten would rather wear dinner
coat than submit to the greater for
mality OF tails and the white tie.
The popularity of the dinner coat
was immensely advanced here by the
war time informality in dress. The
tail coat afterward came back into
its own as the real garment for a
man who must put on full dress. II
has always held that place in the
wardrobe OF the properly garbed man
here and in London.
But there is always desire on the
part of many men to compromise on
the dinner coat. Experts have agreed
that IL is the silk hat, the Inevitable
accompaniment Of the tails, that
prejudices the man in the street in
favor OF the shorter garment. Then a
black tie is usually easier to adjust
than white linen tie. Whatever the
cause may be, the psychology of the
average American inclnes him to
favor the short coat.
Just what the English designers
thought of the tailless coat they
showed by first calling it a smoking
jacket. To this day it is known by
