Grief spoke with feeling of the way in
which the Memorial Association, year
after year, pays its tribute to the liv-

DR.. MoNcRIEF INTRODUCES DR..
TAPPEY.
DR.. Tappeys address was one OF the
most mastery and beautiful ever de-
livered at any memorial service.
DR.. Tappey Is himself son Of the
Southland, and is thoroughly fmbued
with the high ideals Of his ancestry,
and the traditions of his country, and
his love and reverence for the Con-
federate soldiers was expressed In Ian
euage which was eloquent with feel
ing.
A beautiful feature of the service
was the singing OF "Tenting On the
Old Camp Grounds" by quartet
comprising Mr.. and Mrs. w. All Mar
shall, Mrs. Charles Leaman and Mr..
C. A Nesom.
Following the benediction. which
was pronounced by Mr.. Harrison, the
veterans marched from the church to
r, e. Lee square, where loving hands
had decorated the monument with
flowers, wreathing the shaft from tip
to base with garlands of crimson in
tertwined with grey Southern moss,
the effect of which was very beauti-
full.
with the firing of the salute. the
sounding Of taps, and the Star Spangled
Banner by the band, the crowds dis
persed many stopping first, however

WARNING To TURKS

Britain Ready to Take Dras-
tic Action, Foreign Min
lister Hints.

London, Nov. S.-(By The Associ-
ated Pressl Great Britain refuses to
purchase peace with the Turks at the
cost of humiliation and disgrace, Mar
quis Curzon. British secretary for
foreign affairs, declared Wednesday III
an address.
The attitude of the kemalists, re-
Elected in their recent demand that
the allied troops leave Constantinople.
will not be tolerated, he added, and
he gave flat warning to the nation
alists that they will come to sure
disaster if they venture to oppose
their military power to the strength
of Great Britain and the might of
Europe"
The gravity of the situation in the
Near East was emphasized by Lord
Curzon when he termed it "the most
definite menace to the peace of the
world"
Replying to what he describes as
gibes made at himself by former Prime
Minister Lloyd George and Winston
Spencer Churchill, he declared that
Mr.. Lloyd George did much to win the
war and that his record would be in
scribed in lasting letters on the pages
of history, but that some OF his actions
as prime minister had not been helpful
to Curzon's department.
When there was premier with the
peculiar gifts of Lloyd George, such a
man must exercise unusual influence
on foreign affairs. General opinion
however, he thought, was with the new
premier, Bonar Law, in his declara-
ton that the work of the office, which
is largely expert. must be done by the
department itself, subject to the con-
troll of the cabinet and the personal
supervision of the premier.
''All that the foreign office asks"
declared Lord Curzon, ''is that it
should not be interfered with by ir-
responsible amateurs, however bril-
liant they may be-"
THE foreign policy now,' he said,
SIS the foremost policy of the British
empire I lay the cardinal
principle that peace can only be re
covered by the common action of the
principal allies who achieved the vic
tory in the war"
