than last. The season for quail,

Only one species of grouse is

(By United Press)

Constantinople, Sept. 22-Air-
craft attacks on large scale will
probably mark the outbreak of ac-
tual hostilities between the British
and Turks. With the Turks bringing
up heavy artillery and hurrying
shock. troops from Smyrna toward
the new front, the British have as
sembled powerful aircraft squad

to let loose the minute. Mustapha

war are being rushed to the Near
East. The Moslerns are assembled in
great strength along the dead line,
according to reports filtering back.
The British troops, backed by big
guns, are ready for any emergency.
The British strength has been
placed in three sectors as follows:
First: At .Chanak, the key city,
at the narrowest part of the Dard-
anelles. The Turks must take this
position before their forces can cross
the straights. A strong British de-
tachment is entrenched here and be-
hind them lies a line H.. Of de-
stroyers ready to give the soldiers
artillery support.
Second: In the Ismid peninsula

points from which their heavy guns

Third: In Constantinople. Here
the British are prepared to put down

guns. Strong attachments of troops
are being kept in the city to cope
with trouble behind the lines.
With British and Turks already
facing each other in war threats at
the Dardanelles, Jugo-Slavia today
started concentration of forces on the
Bulgarian front, according to word
received here.
The Jugo-Slavia concentration on
the border, it was stated, was start
ed by fear that the Russian Soviet
army would pass through Bulgaria
to the aid Of Mustapha Kemal, lead
er of the Turkish nationalist, and
invade the Balkan states which the
Turks seek to reconquer.

LASTING IMPRESSION
MADE BY CONVENTION
Club Women and Special News
Writers Well Impressed
With North Country

Not only were the club women,
who attended the state convention
of the Minnesota Federation Of
Women's clubs here last week, we'll
impressed with what they saw in the
north country, but the special news
writers sent here by the Twin City
newspapers were also well impress
ed. This fact is borne out by many
splendid articles which these young
ladies prepared for publication in
their respective paers.
A fine example Of the impression
made is shown in lengthy article
by Miss Amy McGuiin in the St.
Paul Pioneer Press Of Sunday, Sept.
II, the lead Of which is as follows
"The charm of the north with its
pine trees and virgin forests will
not soon leave the minds of the fed
Grated club Women of Minnesota.

delight with the city and the SUR
rounding country, ideal for the pur-
pose Of large convention, was ex-
pressed by 400 delegates and WIS.,
itors. Although numerous big ques-
tions beside the routine convention
subjects occupied the program, it
was fitting that one of the principal
addresses, that on minnesota Forests
and Forest Protection" by W. T..
Cox, state forester, should have been
given in a city set in the heart Of
the wonderful trees of Minnesota.
Perhaps more than ever the cues
ton of forest preservation will have
the support of organized club wo-
men of the state.
ss-, 'Besides the big. r, subjects dis
cussed and the practical suggestions
offered, the hospitality, friendliness
and efficiency of the Demidji women
will be long remembered. Gay and
informal functions dotted the more
serious side Of the business in hand
and music by many local musicians
played big part IN the entertain
ment of the guests.

AMERICAN SHIPS ARE
PRIDE of AMERICANS
Progress in Elimination Of
Aliens on United States
Ships Is Marked

Washington, Sept. % Capital
News Service)-An all-American
fleet, manned by an all-American
crew, has been criticized abroad as
selfish and nonaltruistic ideal. Ma
turally, with American wages paid
by the Government to sailors on
shipping board vessels, higher than
obtainable under any other flag,
foreign seamen have .flocked to
ships under the Stars and Stripes.
In such numbers did they come that
more than third of our crews were
not citizens of the country whose
pay they took.
Those in authority, becoming
alarmed, began to give preference
to seamen of American; birth, or
naturalization, and recruiting officers
were instructed to expedite the
Americanization of American ships
built with American money to serve
American interests. This order has
borne fruit, and according to recent
statistics, the end Of the fiscal year
saw 90 per cent of the $4,000 sea-
men employed Americans, either by
birth or naturalization.
1t is pointed out that not only is
this policy best serving American in
terests in times of peace, but that
in the event of war the United States
will be able to call on a much larger
body of trained men, both for trans
port work and for recruits for an
expanding Navy than if a third or
more of it's crews could not be used
because of foreign citizen ship. 49,:
