consist of the expulsion of 10000
Germans from Alsace- Lorraine and
the confiscation of their property in

tests were held. He hopes to show that
the great superiority OF the German
glider was due not to any quality OF

special air conditions prevailing in

It does not follow, OF course. that

Turks Warned by the Allies.

With the Greek army swept out Of
Asia Minor in utter defeat, and the
Turks swarming down the hills to the
sea, occupying Smyrna and other
points recently under Greek control,
the situation develops which has been
feared for some time. The Turks, un-
officially. declare their purpose to pro-
ceed to Constantinople and occupy the
capital. The allied governments. now
strongly united In purpose. notify the
Turks that they will not be permitted
to make a demonstration against the
straits or Constantinople. or that en-
croachments by the kelnalist army on
the neutrality Of that zone will find
all the allies united against the An
CORA government.
Despite this warning. or perhaps
preceding 1t. large Turkish forces. 1t
is reported, are marching on the Oar.
danelles. Turkish newspapers openly
state that the Angora government will
dictate peace to the allies at the point
OF the hayonet. Numerically at pres
ent, doubtless. the Turkish forces un-
der kemal are superior to the allied
forces on the ground, but the KeInal-
lists are, Of course. greatly outnum-
bered by the potential allied forces in
reserve at short distances from Con-
stantinople. Furthermore. the Kemal.
lists have no naval forces and the Oar.
danelles are bristling with allied war
ships. making a close approach to the
straits a matter Of the greatest diff
Guilty.
Mustapha Kemal Pasha has proved
himself an able leader. shrewd. re-
sourceful. patient and vigorous in ac-
ton. It is to be doubted whether he
would risk an issue with the allied
governments by a precipitate move
against Constaptinopie or any tres
pass upon the neutral zone. He is not
the head Of the Islamic faith. Greatly
as he may wish TO secure possession OF
the capital and gain domination over
the person and consequently the poll
cies Of the sultan, he cannot accom-
plish that short Of war with England.
France and Italy. There Is nothing in
his known record to suggest that he
will commit such folly and place in
jeopardy the victory he has just won,

Henry Ford's Order.

Two aspects are apparent in Henry
Fords order to his employees that all
workers in his factories must abstain
from the use Of liquor. wine and beer
il they would hold their jobs. One is
the Injunction against such use on
the ground that drinking among en-
ployes has recently been the cause Of
accidents in the Ford works. The other
is that the eighteenth amendment is
part of the fundamental law Of the
country and was meant to be en-
forced"
Some time before national prohibit
tion or even extensive state prohibi-
ton came into effect employers were
establishing a temperance standard.
Several, Of the big railroad corpora
tons had banned drinkers from their
rolls. Other industries followed suit on
tWsAusd of safety and, efficiency.
Eyidently the Ford plant has recently
suffered from the csrelessness and in

order TO prevent further mischance
on this score Ford takes the only pos
sible course and writes prohibition

Unemployment and Normalcy.

Secretary Davis statement respect
ing Unemployment in this country is

The normal figures, however, are

them. AS the problem Is in hand and
in good hands. the next report should
be as assuring as is the present one.
In a country like this. the idle man,
IL desirous Of work and unable to Sc
cure work, may become a dangerous
man. His enforced leisure and his
needs make him morose. He tackles
the question in a helpless way. He is
competent for a job, but lacks knowl-
edge Of things in general. and so gives
way to impatience. A hungry man.
