LONDON, september 10.
F there is a master of irony in the
world now like Swift, who wrote
= "Gulliver's Travels" he would
find In the present state of the nations
wonderful material for satire. He
could make a good start at Geneva,
where the Assembly of the League of
Nations is now meeting. The Arch
bishop Of Canterbury. preaching the
Inaugural sermon, denounced the
criminal insanity of the last war,
though he Is one of those churchmen
who blessed banners and guns when
that war was in progress. After words
of magnificent eloquence he declared
that by the grace of God and the will
of the peoples there shall be no next
war
But even while he spoke in that pull
pit at Geneva there was little further
east in Europe a new war raging, with
fierce massacre and bayonet prod
dings. with hundreds OF thousands of
poor peasants in flight. with the Turk
ish crescent bearing down the Chris
tian cross. In Asia Minor the Turk,
who was defeated by the immense
sacrifice of the British and French
troops In the last war, was coming
back again with sweeping victories
and cruelty; Islam was on the war
path with the open sympathy and
satisfaction OF French public opinion.

America Holds Destiny
of World in Her Hands

What about the United States of
America In all this travail OF the
world after the war? Does Il mean
nothing to them or matter nothing2
have never hidden my belief that,
unless America uses her immense
moral influence and economic power
as n means of arbitration and settle
ment in all this welter of world af-
fairs. we shall drift steadily from bad
to worse. That Is my absolute con-
victioE still, but see from articles by
my friend. Frank Simonds, that any
hope of American influence in that
direction is delusion. I'VE have
turned our backs" he says. upon the
worlds politics in turning our backs
on the worlds markets. The war has
on our side Of the Atlantic increased
the long-standing faith OF the United
States as being totally self f-sufilcient"
IL that is true-and believe Simonds
Is the most acute observer OF modern
life-then there Is precious little hope
of recovery of European peace. But
am not so pessmistic as that, and
putting my own opinion against that
OF Simonds, / venture TO believe that
the American people will find that they
cannot do without Europe and will
call great council for the safeguard
ing Of civilization. II is impossible 20
believe otherwise OF the people who
hold the destiny OF the world In their
hands.

Nv TITHIN the last two weeks the
\A/ Greek armies in Asia Minor
have been crushingly de-
feated. They have been driven COM
pletely off the continent after disas-
trous retreat, and seem to be thor
oughly demoralized. The debacle WV
Idly illustrates the fact that the Turk,
relying on his military prowess and
the backing OF the Mohammedan
world, has no intention of being ex-
PEELED from Constantinople or Europe.
The present situation Is especially
acute because it presents very vivid
possibility of another world war, with
Christian arrayed against Moslem, and
conflicts staged upon the ancient bat
tlefields where Cross and Crescent
have struggled in past centuries.
Nearly 500 years have passed since
~the last Constantine" led a gallant
little band of warriors without the
gates Of Constantinople to meet GER
tain death beneath the blows of the
waiting Turkish hordes. 1t was Ed
ropean jealousy that deprived the SOL
dier-king Of the aid he had right to
expect; therefore it was European
jealousy that planted the banner of
the Crescent on the towers of st.
Sophia. 1t was European jealousy
that kept it f1oa ting there for half a
thousand years. and it is the same Eu-
ropean jealousy that has created the
situation to-day whereby another army
Is flying before the Moslem onslaught.
and another Constantine is quaking
on tottering throne.
1t Is this European jealousy which
prevents and has prevented any Power
from seizing Constantinople. The city
on the Golden Horn has been an age
long bone of contention. Russia has
yearned for 1t for centuries, but Eng
land always stood ready to checkmate
any move in that direction, and even
went SO far as to fight the Crimean
War to prevent the realization of the
Russian dream. France, Germany.
Greece and Bulgaria have all gazed
longingly in the direction of the Turk
ish capital but no nation has yet
dared to seize it.
With the outbreak of the world war
It seemed that the Turkish hold might
be broken il the Allies were victorious.
or course, the Moslem hordes Of India
were strongly inclined to sympathize
with the Sultan, who heads their
church, but England pacified them
and won their allegiance with prom
ises that none of his territory should
be wrenched from him. These prom
fses have bobbed up repeatedly in sub
sequent diplomacy and have seriously
embarrassed British statesmen.

massacring Christians and challenging
the authority of Europe. He is able to
do so because that authority was
hopelessly divided by the acute differ
ence of policy between the British For
eign Office and the French officials.
Behind the Turk. belonging to his
faith and rejoicing in his victory, are
many Mohammedan peoples of Meso-
potamia. Syria, Palestine and India.
Russian agents are working among
them. Their own fanatics are stirring
among them. and meanwhile Europe

DardanelIes Promised to
Russia Early in War

BY secret treaty made in March.
1915, Russia was promised CONSTANT
nople and the Dardanelles. The Lon
don pact Of April, 1915. promised Italy
certain Turkish islands and Adalia.
Other treaties promised England the
Tigro- Euphrates Valley, and France
most of the remainder of Asia Minor.
The Russian revolution nullified the
Constantinople agreement. King Con-
stantine of Greece was dethroned and
Venezelos. who brought Greece into
the war on the side of the Allies. was
promis ed section of Asia Minor in
consequence.
After the closing of the war the
Allies failed TO occupy the territory
promised. The Turkish Nationalists
organized a Government under Kemal
Pasha. with it's capital at Angora. and
sent delegation to the peace confer
ence. The Treaty of Sevres gave all
European Turkey. except Constanti-
nople. to Greece and Serbia. Asiatic
Armenia was placed under a mandate:
Syria was given to France: Mesopo-
tamia and Arabia to England. and
Greece was awarded the Aegean Island
and Smyrna. Constantinople was to be
administered by an allied commission.
Turkey failed to ratify this treaty and
the Natioralists' Government refused
to abide by It.
AS result of pressure brought upon
England by her Moslem subjects in
India, the London conference of March,
1921, withdrew the assignment OF ter
ritory made to Greece. using as an ex-
cuse the fact that Venezeos had been
ouerthrown and King Constantine re-
called to the throne of Greece. The
latter declared his intention to carry
out the Greek provisions of the Treaty
OF Sevrts by force. mobilized his army,
invaded Turkey with the purpose OF
SELLING Smyrna, and moved on Angora
in order to crush the resistance OF the
Turkish Nationalists. Thus the pres
ent war started.
The purely Greek aspects OF the
present conflict are OF relatively minor
Importance; tho Greeks have merely
served as pawns in a greater struggle
over issues of much more far reaching
import than the predomnance OF the
Greeks or the Turks In Asia Minor.
First of all, 1t becomes apparent that
oil of the gains in the Near East which
fell to Great Britain as the result OF
the world war are now placed in jeop-
ardy. The chief aspects OF the situa-
ton in respect TO which British in
terests are affected relate to the con-
troll of the Dardenelles. the security of
the British protectorate over Mesopo-
tamia. and the effect OF an Islamic re-
surgence upon British power In India.
IL Is probably no exaggeration to
state that the greatest single concrete
gain which Great Britain derived from
the world war is the control which 1t
gave her over the Dardanelles. Greek
vsaure OF the Gallipol. Peninsula and
the Chanak region opposite to It, to-
gether with the power OF the British
fleet insured her such control 80 long
as the Greeks could be relied upon to
hold their ground. In possession of
the Dardanelles, Great Britain not only
possessed the power to check the ex-
pansion of the European land power
into Asia Minor along the lines of the
Pan-German movement. but the future

Comment
By Melvin Wheeler

To me, these verses are precious.
There is something about them that
gives loftiness to thought. / believe
the sentiment contained therein will
react for good upon all who take the
time to commit the poem to memory.
After reciting certain virtues be-
longing to the idealistic "you," the
writer in his happy frame of mind,
says,
eyes if l could, here's what I'd do,
I'd make the whole world
Just like YOU"
wonder if the poet had some good
person in mind when he penned these
lines. l believe so.
Allow me to bring the text home
to us all. Before doing so, I'll place
myself in the "you" class so that the
lesson to be drawn will apply to my
self as well as to other people.
If You knew that you had been
chosen as modelAneXt to Christ in
importance-would you be willing to
have the world made just like you?
Or, would you hold up your hands in
horror and say, "Make the world
better than me. Make the world
like Christ. Then my goodness will
be lost in the goodness oe Him who
hath no fault"
If the most righteous person on
earth should rebel at the thought OF
being made a model, supreme in the
eyes of men, what would those on q
lower strata of life say?
