army, should Commander Booth be
recalled.
The commander wrote her brother
the general, asking for details of her
recall, but she has not received word
from him yet. She said today:
1T would hurt me beyond words
to leave America, which so dearly
love and its people who have been
so good to me. l have always done
my duty where I have seen it, and
do not understand the action
taken"
At the headquarters of the army
officers said they thought it was
in the mind OF General Booth to
eliminate a commander and general
headquarters entirely from the
army, and just conduct the three
divisions of the United States from
the one headquarters in London.
Officers said the army in America
was very strong against removing
the headquarters In New York, and
eliminating a commander.
As IA proof of Commander Booth s
work, the records show an increa Sc

HERRICK AT WHITE HOUSE,
RETURNS TO PARIS SOON

Myron T. Herrick, American Am.
bassador to France, was in Wash.
ington today as the guest of Prcsi-
dent Harding at the White House.
He planned to talk with Secretary
of State Hughes during the day on
the situation in the Near East.
Asked by newspapermen If he
thought there was any chance of the
United States becoming embroiled
as a result of the Near East crisis,
Ambassador HerriCk said:
"It may be sacrilegious, but I
haven't seen a newspaper 6or a
month. I've been down on a farm
and I've gained eleven pounds"
Herrick plans to remain at the
White House for two or three days
before returning TO his post at Paris.

British Censor Held
Up 48-Hour Note
To Kemal
BY c. F. BERTELLI,
nIyersaI Service.

PARIS, Sept. 2S.-It is learned
from diplomatic source that the
allied life or death" message to
Mustapha Kemal, appealing to
the Turkish leader for peace, was
delayed twenty-four hours at
Constantinople owing to the fact
that the office of the British
censors was closed.
In diplomatic circles it is
pointed out that this demon
strates the British grip on the
Dardanelles, when even messages
from the allied premiers must
have the o. X. of the censor.

to hold them back for a while If
they had any talent for self f.eXamina-
tion, which they have not, they
would know that in view of their
agreement to let the Turks into
Europe they cannot hold them Out
of Europe long. But they prOCe d
to hold them out long enough.
They hold them out until in the
eyes of the whole world they are the
heroes Of Europe rcpelling the saw
age Asiatic foe. And back of them
on the table there is all the time the
agreement by which they are bound
to re-establish the Turks in Europe
within a few minutes.
Opinion is deepening in Washing
ton that this is a good game for
this country to stay out of. 1t
is realized that we have our own
little aggressions to commit and
our own large self-saCrifiCes to
claim in such places as Haiti and
SantO Domingo. 1t is noted that
we have no desire for the int"rna-
tionaliZation of the Panama Canal.
1t is argued that we might just as
we'll leave il to the British and the
French to attend TO the internas
tionalization OF the Dardanelles.
Senators who voted against the
League of Nations and the -Four
Power Treaty are more than ever
convinced that one hemisphere
ought to be able to satisfy all our
passion for meddlipg into the at
fairs of other peoples. They arc
more than ever determined to let
the British and the French do all
the meddliEg and internationaliZing
in the Eastern hemisphere.
All they want in the eastern
hemisphere is grandstand from
which to watch the British and the
French making agreements and the
British taking the credit and the
French taking the blame.
1t is to be further noted as a
fact regarding Washington opinion
that in certain circles especially
committed to an opposition to all
foreign entanglements there Is a
growing opposition also to all enmi-
ties toward foreigners.
1t is perceived that the British
policy toward Egypt does not differ
essentially from our policy toward
Haiti. 1t is perceived that the
French and British intervention 10
control the great commercial route
through thse Dardanelles does not
differ essentially from our inter.
vention to control the great com.
mercial route across and through
the Isthmus of Panama. 1t is
argued that just as we expect the
Europeans to take tolerant view
of our adventures in this hemis.
phere, so we politely in return
should take a tolerant view of their
adventures in theirs.

The Washington times., 1922-09-28

If the French go and fight the
Turks, as they did in CiliCia in the
Southern Asia Minor in 1920, they
are a militarlstiC and aggressive and
bloodthirsty people. II then they
sign a treaty of peace with the
Turks and give them back a large
lot of their own Turkish territory,
as they did in 1921. they ar" the
allies Of barbarism.
II they take "a mandate in Syria
and send troops there to ho.d the
Syrians down. they are the enemies
of the principle of self-determina-
ton. If, as now, they maintain that
the Turks ought to he permitted 10
come into possession OF the whole
Of their own country, they are the
betrayers of Europe and the Brit
ish are the saviors of it, although
the agreement for giving the Turks
the whole of their own country was
long ago made by the British and
the French together.
Little by little the city of Wash
ington is perceiving that the British
and the French are a partnership IN
which the British have cast them
selves for the role Of the good
partner and in which the French are
accordingly unable to escape from
enacting the role of the wicked
partner.
In the Treaty OF Sevres in 1920
the British and the French agreed
that the Turks should have Con-
stantinople In February Of 1921
they agreed that the Turks should
have Constantinople and some of
eastern Thrace. In March Of this
year they agreed that the Turks
should have Constantinople and some
more Of eastern Thrace and all II
Asia Minor or Anatolia. The
French seem to be a simple people.
Having agreed to give the Turks all
these things, their idea is: Give it
to them" This is where their good
partner begins to shine.
The British, happily being a far
from simple and logical people, sign
agreements all over the world and
then act by instinct. They see some
horrid Turks and they get an instinct

be installed and erected to supply
the new service. according to c.
T. Claggett. division manager.
Washington is adding new tele-
phones daily. The number now
stands at $500. more than one
telephone for every five persons.
More than 100000 is estimated
as the cost of installing the tele-
phones, protectors. inside wire and
all other equipment at the sub
scribcr's premises. exclusive of out
side cable wire. In addition. it will
be necessary to appropriate large
amounts to add switchboard equip
ment. construct new underground

Judge Imposes Fine
OF $40 in Liquor Case

Ignoring newspaper criticism about
light fines being imposed on yiolators
OF the prohibition laws. Judge Mat
tingly in Police Court yesterday
stuck to his regular program of max
ing the punishment fit the crime.
In accordance with this attitude.
James Griffin. colored, of 1925 d
street northwest. was fined $40 on
n charge ot unlawfully possessing
liquor and his personal bond was
taken on a charge of disorderly con-
duct. The testimony showed that
Griffin. whose wife had been an in
valid for ten years. was taking home
n quart of whisky at midnight on
January 81. He made quite a racket
trying to get into his home at that
hour. Griffin admitted. and attracted
the attention of Policeman Scoville,
who arrested him for disorderly con-
duct. When searched at the pre-
cinct. the whisky was found. ct
don't think this is such a bad case"
the court stated. and imposed the
small fine.
