Duty Of the Powers.
Keep the Turk Out Of Europe and
Establish the Armenian State.

To THE New YoRK HERALD: cannot
refrain from thanking you for the mas
terly editorial article entitled THE
Worlds Disgrace" Your proposed atti-
tude for the American people Is the only
attitude which they can take or would
desire, to take. namely. that they Will
strike hands with no Power that does
not stand squarely for keeping the Ture
out of Europe. 'at whatever cost OF life
and treasure"
Our State Department ought to make
that clear to these Powers. and to make
if clear also that that resolution Is only
the first item OF the policy that the Pow
ers ought to adopt in dealing with the
Turk and In establishing on firm
basis the Armenian State, the bounda-
ries OF which have heretofore been
agreed upon. CHARLES y. MANIERRE.

Miller's Running Mate.

The feeling is general among the
Republicans OF this State that Gov
ernor MILLER, as the leader of the
party in New York and the wheel
horse of the coming campaign, must
pass upon the qualifications OF the
l.ominees who will be with him on
the ticket. The Republicans of New
York wants to see the Governor go
into battle with a staff Of strong,
able and respected men-men who
will help a ticket made powerful by
the Governors heading it.
1t is particularly important that
the Republican candidate for Lieu
tenant-Governor should be a clean
cut, vigorous and popular man. So
there is general satisfaction among
the New York Republicans at the
prospect of drafting for the nomina-
tion Colonel WILLIAM ]. DONOVAN Of
Buffalo.
Ordinarily 1t would be considered
political imprudence to nominate the
candidates for both the Governorship
and the Lieutenant-G t-Governorship from
the western end of the State. But
Colonel DONOVAN, although he was
born in Buffalo and lives and prac-
tices law there, Is as well known to
New York city as IL he were resi-
dent He is a graduate of Columbia
and trustee of that university.
What's more. he led a New York
city regiment through the great war.
Colonel DONOVAN is fighting man,
and the Republicans of New York will
need fighting men this year. He
served on the Mexican frontier in
1916 with Troop l. AS soon as the
United States entered the war he de-
serted the cavalry for the infantry,
knowing that only the foot soldiers
we're likely to go to France. He went
abroad as Major, commanding the
First Battalion of the 165th Infantry.
of which the old Sixty-ninth Regi-
ment of New York city was the nu-
cicus and which was part of the
Rainbow Division. He and his regi-
ment, which lost 615 killed and 2,sS:
wounded, saw service on five fronts,
beginning in the Baccarat sector aud
ending in the Argonne.
DONOVAN returned to the United
States after the war Colonel in
command Of regiment which had
lived up to all its traditions. He had
won the Distinguished Service Cross,
the Italian War Cross and the Medal
of the Legion of Honor.
Colonel DONOVAN has more than a
war record. He is one Of the leading
lawyers OF Buffalo and is United
States Attorney for the very impor-
tant district of Western New York.
THIS month the Fuel Administrator
Mr.. WooDIN, appointed him as his
legal adviser. He is also the COM
mander of the 301st Cavalry, Reserve.
and president of the Rainbow Di-
vision Association. Rather busy
man to take on active service In
political campaign, but he is a
jealous Republican and his party
needs men of his caliber this fall.
He is young--only 40--active and a
good speaker.
Colonel DONOVAN ould be West
ern New York candidate who would
not have to be introduced or ex-
planned to Eastern audiences. Every
body knows him or knows of him.
And he is not the kind OF man who
would be submerged in the Lieu
tenant t-Governorship. That, Office in
recent years has been famous, so to
speak, for the obscurity OF its incum-
bents. But nobody could possibly

Dare Kemal Try to Cross?


is less threatening now than at any
time since first it lowered over the
smoldering ruins of Smyrna. Frances
friends aLLong the Balkan nations
and Bulgaria have shown no inclina-
tion toward military adventures at
the Turkish straits and Soviet RUS
sia has modified her plans Of assist
ance from the offer Of Bolshevist
army to a tender of her offices as
mediator. Great Britain still main
tains her stand at the Dardanelles.
but KEMAL's eagerness for an I'M
mediate advance into Thrace has
apparently cooled.
Peace seems now to rest largely
with KEMAL; to depend, in fact, upon
whether or not he attempts to force
his way into Europe against the
military and naval opposition which
Great Britain will offer. Good Euro
pean friends perhaps have advised
him that Great Britain is really in
earnest and that challenging British
power is a different matter from driv-
ing Greeks out of Asia Minor.
KEMAL's attitude has unquestion-
ably been changed by the halt for
harley which has been forced upon
him. He is less of Mohammed II.
with Europe on it's knees before him,
and Constantinople is not so nearly
prize to be plucked by merely ad-
vancing to take it. He finds a new
and a rather strange alignment OF
friends and enemies. England, who
in the days of the astute old KIAMH.
Pasha. was alike the friend Of Islam
and Turkey, to-day stands solidly
and alone against the Turk. The
Balkan States, which considered Tur-
Key their traditional enemy, are
winking at the Turks return to Eu-
rcpe. France comes to his aid and
with France sides Russia, which in
the past hungered most for an open
waterway from the Black Sea to the
Egean.
! France, though, backed KEMAL to
win in a war against Greece-not In
war against Great Britain. British
military successes at the Turkish
straits might result in the very thing
which France most wishes to avoid
preponderance of British power and
influence in the eastern Mediter-
ranean. So France very naturally
wishes for almost anything rather
1 than an actual clash between Great
Britain and the Nationalists. This
situation must give KEMAL matter
for thought. Exactly how will he
fare with France, the Balkans and
Russia all striving for advantages
at Constantinople? He may find il
after all just as we'll to wait to see
what he can get by means OF an
allied conference.
Great Britain has SO far held the
Turk in Asia. She has estopped him
from crossing the straits and carry
ing the sword into Constantinople
and Thrace. Does KEMAL dare bring
on war in Europe? Great Britain ia
prepared to meet him at the Darda-
pelles. She has not receded from
her firm stand to keep him in Asia,
and there is no indication that she
will weaken.
II war can be avoided the fate OF
Constantinople and the straits comes
once more to the conference table
The danger of the situation is en-
phasized by the incidents of the past
few days. They have shown civili-
zation, as nothing in recent years
has shown 1t. that there is no place
in Europe for the Turk.

The New Tariff Law.

The Fordney-McCumber tariff meas
IRE is now law and in operation
governing the country's imports from
the world. 1t is regrettable that
such an act had to go to the Presi-
dent for his signature. But bad as
the measure is, and in respect OF
many of its scandalous provisions,
such as the sugar schedule, the wool
schedule and the glove schedule, 1t Is
very bad, there was nothing for the
President to do In the circumstances
but to sign it.
The Republican party was pledged
to early revision of the Democratic
tariff. President HARDING was pledged
to the revision, and during the cam
paign and after the election two years
ego there was nobody, either Repub-
lican or Democrat, that did not ex-
pect President HARDING and his party
to give the country new tariff based
on Republican protection principles
In place of the one based on Demo-
cratic principles.
That was no excuse for the Con-
gress tariff makers to frame such a
faulty and dangerous measure as they
finally passed and there is no de-
Tense for the wretched quality Of much
Of the work they put into it, regard
less of industrial conditions and eco
nomic facts. There is no telling what
the results will be to the American
people in respect of their cost OF liv-
ing and there is no telling what the
political consequence will be to Repub-
lican organizations in various parts
Of the country.
Nevertheless, foreign currencies
bre so debased in many OF the ex-
porting countries, with their produc-
tion costs lower than ever as COM
pared with ours, that everybody
realized something had to be done
to guard this country against an
overwhelming flood Of imports that
might come at any time, and was
sure to come as such exporting
countries recovered their producing
lowers. The safeguard was the
tariff.
And with nearly a year and seven
months gone since President HAIR
DING and the present Congress took
Office and with no assurance that the
men likely to be in control Of the
next Congress would do any better
in the matter of tariff making in the
next year and seven months, 1t was a
soregone conclusion that if the Ford
ney-McCumber measure reached the
President before the adjournment
of this Congress he would feel it
was incumbent upon him to sign it,
as he has done.
No doubt, also, one thing that rec
cnciled the President to placing his
signature on legislation so generally
defective and so potential for mis-
chief is the clause in the measure pro-
viding for changes in the tariff
schedules by Executive action when
ever the duties are found in actual
practice to be working injury to the
country or otherwise to be impracti-
cable and undesirable.
With his natural business sense,
his capacity for getting at the bot
tom Of things and his way Of having
them corrected when they are wrong
the President who yesterday signed
the tariff bill and made it law will
not be willing hereafter to let it cause
unlimited economic and political
wreck.

BLACK CAT VISITS SKUNKS;

One of the most unusual reason.

two-day holidays was furnished b!
one Of the principals during produc

A big black cat plays an importan'

The cat is known as Claudius Tibe-
RUS and he stalks his way with dig
aity and Importance throughout the
entire comedy. Directing this cat was
hard task, according to Directo,

BRITISH CABINET
FINALLY READY
Ministry Completed by Bonar Law
All Places Filled

Dondon, Oct. 31.-Premier Bonar
Law tonight issued the list Of the re-
naming officers Of his government in
which there is again a fair infusion
of members of the house of lords. His
appointment of a minister of pen
sions does not necessarily mean that
ne had yielded to the Laborite clam
or against the proposed abolition OF
that ministry, but is considered more
likely merely formal appointment
to carry on the work until the minis
try can be abolished by legislative
act. Agitation against abolition of
the pensions ministry, however, is ga
thering force.
Winston Churchill, who has recov-
cred from his illness sufficiently to be
removed to his home tonight, al
though he will still be confined to his
rooms for a few days, sent a letter to
his constituents today strongly op-
posing abolition of the ministry and
expressing the hope that Bonar Law
will, on further consideration, with
draw position hastily taken; other
wise, Mr.. Churchill declares, he will
resist this decision in parliament. In
the same letter Mr.. Churchill re-
counts number Of large economies
which the late government was con-
templs ting, largely in his recommen
dations amounting TO nearly G0.000,-
600 pounds annually which were pre-
vented by the overthrow of the gov
ernment.
incidentally, Nj. Churchill men
tons that TIE economies included 49,
100000 pounds on naval estimates
but he regretted to say that these
economies were obstinately opposed
by Lieut.. Col. L. c. NJ. S. Amcry, first
lord Of the admiralty Of the new cabi-
net, who was then financial secreta-
~ to the admiralty. He adds that
Colonel Amery took a leading part in
the revolt Of the under secretaries
which led to the overthrow of the
government and declares:
+ view with disquictude the fact
that this junior minister has stepped
into the shoes Of his late ch;ef--a re-
ward Of successful mut;ny which 81
certainly an unwholesome spectacle"
The former colonial secretary, who
is still providing effective election
eering points, remarks how. disap-
pointing is the declarit;on of The new
chancellor of the eXcheQuer, Stanley
Baldwin, that reduction of taxation
is impossible. when all these project
ed economies have been hindered by
the change Of government.
