Near East Skies Clearing.

The Turk appears to be playing the
same old game in the sanno old way,
but with considerably less success
than he played it In years gone by.
He tries to get the powers opposed
to him quarreling among themselves
and bluffs until his bluff Is called.
Then, when a showdown no longer
can be avoided, he retreats from an
untenable position with all the COM
placence Of q victor.
Such a showdown has come in the
matter of withdrawal Of allied troops
from Constantinople and the zones
stipulated in the Mundania armistice
agreement. The allies would not with
draw, therefore the Turk gives sra-
cious assent that they may remain. 1t
is true that this assent is coupled
with stipulations that there must be
TO interference with Turkish admin-
istration of internal affairs. but that
is not a proviso which the allies need
take too seriously. So long as the
Turks administer internal affairs in a
manner satisfactory to the allies there
will be no occasion for interference
II internal administration is not sat-
isfactory the allies will have only to
interfere determinedly and with a
united front. and the Turks will re-
treat again from a position which will
have been rendered untenable.
That they must be firm. and united
ir dealing with the Turk is a lesson
which the powers Of western Europe
have learned time after time. but each
occasion they arc called upon TO deal
with him it seems necessary that the
lesson shall be learned all over again.
They came face to face with. disaster
IN the present controversy because
they were unable or unwilling to pre-.
sent a united front. AS soon as they
were able to agree upon a common
policy the threat of disaster receded
There is fair prospect now, with the
relearned lesson fresh in the minds Of
the allied powers. that q solution OF
the Turkish problem will be found.
However much we may disapprore
Of kemal. credit must be given him
for being a bold and sl1illful player on
the chess-board Of diplomacy. His
policy OF bluff and buster won great
zeal for the Ansora government. and
1t came within an ace Of winning the
whole OF the Turkish demands. OF
course. Kenal is not mad enough to
think he could wage successful war
against the allied powers, but he had
them almost b!uffed into believing he
was willing to take the chance. and
the moral victory he won promised
for a time to be as effective FOR his
purposes as would have been a victory
at arms.

The Defeuse Of Washinftou.
Washington was saved from disa,

Warrington was saved from disaster
yesterday. But for the superior skill
of its fleet Of six defenders it would
have been bombed into bits by ave
hostile" planes raiding the capital
from the south. e. According to the
judges Of the battle" the enemy
planes were thwarted in their purpose
and were captured after O chase Of
several miles. -.
Those who saw the planes eircling
and speeding through the air over the
city had merely an impression of an
unusual number of aerial performers
in action at once. Few realized that
the exhibition was Q demonstration Of
possible warfare. They behAld the
two groups Of planes moving first
northward, then northeastx1rd, and
then disappear in the misty horizon
Tar beyond the city. Presently they
saw them returning, at first merely
specks in tho sky. then appearing in
formation in two groups. one q ''v"
and the other. q; straight tine. with
plane Of much superior speed eircling
around and boesins the whole show.

URINo the past week I have

different civic organizations in the city
the fact that the recent foot ball game
between the Nittany Lions and the
Navy team strongly emphasized the
need Of great national stadium
where athletic contests Of all kinds
could be held. There is much to be
said in favor Of the idea, and 1t Is a
matter that l think could he success
fully handled BY the different civic
bodies IL they would combine their
forces and present the matter to Con-
gress. The idea is an excellent one,
for not only would It bring thousands
Of people to Washington. thus bene-
fitting the city financially, but OF the
thousands who came to view these
athletic events. hundreds would re-
turn to their homes and tell Of the
beauties OF the nation's capital.
have for q long time past been urging
that steps be taken so that the gradu-
ating classes OF schools throughout
the country may spend at least "A week
in Washington III order that they may
view, at close hand. just what this gov
eminent really is. It would not only
but 1t would be the greatest lesson

TT might not be a bad idea for the

ployment. without pay. OF number OF
citizens to act as auxiliary trafiic po-
licemen. IT is conceded that the con-
gressional appropriations do hot pro-

that traffic regulations are violate

violation occurred several days ago at
the corner of 1ath and + streets north

many motorists in Washington today
who would gladly act without pay in
order to stop the reckless dtivine on
the streets Of this city. Why not give
the members Of the motor corps au-
thority to make arrests! While. OF

the next four years will be to per-
suade our timid brethren to follow
your leadership, gentlemen un-

premier in parliament as we'll as a
chief executive. The theoretical idea
OF the Presidents aloofness from Con-
Rress-of a President dealing with
the national legislature as If he were
an independent government dealing
with anether-is wrong, because 1t
has been demonstrated to be ineffec-
tive and ruinous. We need deflnite-
