Why the Turk is So Firm
(From the New York Herald).

For twenty-five years CONSTANT
nople waged war on the Arab tribes
OF the Yemen. It was useless TO
send Arabian attachments against
their brother tribesmen, and service
in this land was so hated that Il
was necessary TO send troops from
other parts OF Turkey under sealed
orders. The Turks never won the
Yemen either by diplomacy or by
military force and constantinopie
received no tribute from the coun-
try beyond what It could extort from
the coast towns.
Hejaz. the seat OF the great
shrlnes OF Islam, never recognized
the authority OF the Porte and Gag
erly seized the opportunity the
world war gave TO break Off its alleg-
lance 10 Turkey Kurdlstan was al
most constantly in rebellion against
'Constantinople and II bled the Gov
eminent OF both men and gold.
Mesopotamie, with Bagdad as It's
capital. was the seat OF Arab dis
content and gave the Turkish Gov
eminent more trouble IN its at
tempts 10 rule Il than It IS today
giving Great Britain. In other words,
about all allied Europe left to the
Turk was Anatolia. But by so do
ing II left him what he most needed
and took from him what he could
best spare.
Anatolia was the distinctly Turk
ish part of the old Ottoman Empire.
1t was the Turks first stopping
place in his westward emigration.
From here came the troops upon
whom the Sultans could depend, the
men whom they brought into Eu-
rope 10 defend them in crisis.
They were the accomplishing SOL
dlers who fought often without arms
and always with insufficient clothing
and supplies. Renal knew his
ground when he chose II as the seat
OF his Turkish National State. No
where else would the feeble first
growth of nationalism have thriven
and brought forth fruit. He had no
Wild Kurd rebel 10 assimilate and
no Arabian hereditary rivalry TO APP
pease and reconcile. But he got
the best that the tribesmen of Kur-
distan and the Arabs OF Mesopo-
tamia, Hejez and the Yemen could
give him-the support of Islam.
Europe faces not the old Ottoman

Mental Healer Astomds France
By N. p. A. Service.

PARIS-A day at the clinic of
DR.. Emile Coue. the healer. Of
Nancy. would indicate that tho hui
man mind is the master of human
disease.
His fame as a healer has spread
afar and people from all parts Of
France are coming to him. scien-
lists are watching closely the work
he is performing.
coue does not claim that his
methods are substitute for medi-
cine or surgery. He does not claim
to have a substitute for religion. But
he does claim-and his successes
substantiate him-that auto-sugges-
ton is helpful in organic as we'll as
in nervous and functional diseases.
ANY one can practice auto-sug-
gestion for himself. without seeking
the help OF another person." says
DR.. Coue.
STATED simply, the practice OF
Interrogation consists of eliminate
Ing unwanted thoughts and replace
ing them with desirable thoughts.
For instance, have you a head
ache2 Concentrate on a phrase such
as "The pain is gang away Repeat
It so rapidly that your mind has no
room for any other thought. The
pain will leave.
Here is another experiment which
advocates OF auto-suggestion ad-
vance. Put your foot on the moor.
Say TO yourself, II can't move my
foot Concentrate on that thought.
As long as you hold your mind
steadily TO the belief that you cant
move your foot you will find that the
foot Is immovable.
DR.. Coue's patients become adept
In auto-suggestion by constant prac-
tice. Their pains depart. Then. in
many cases. the fundamental causes
Of their illnesses disappear.

This has been a great year for

court academy OF nterateurs as

ters by giving the Goncourc prize
for the best novel OF the year to
"Batouaia," the work Of Rene
Maran, a full-blooded Negro. There
was little consolation for the eau

father Of Maran was a native Of
Martinique, the mother OF Guade-
loupe. To be sure. he was born ct
Bordeaux, France. and had gained
his African experiences upon which
his book was based while serving In
the French colonial offices in Cen

outspoken criticism OF French off,

Empire. to which none OF its parts
owed allegiance or fealty, but a
Turkish Nationalist State-the first
that modern history ever knew. The
Turkish army is not the I'll equipped
badly supplied horde that was driven
into battle In the Balkan wars, but
an army flushed with success and
eager for spoils. Herein lies much OF
the Turks assurance for he is a sol
der but not a governor. The condi-
tion OF the Balkan States, when he
was ousted from them. is evidence
of his miserable misrule and lack Of
administrative ability. 1t is as true
today as ever II was that where the
hoof of the Turk horse strikes the
grass never grows. His new Nation
alist State has the same Old prop
that the Ottoman Empire had, the
the unspeakable Turk.

One OF the things IN the Near East
situation that Is surprising to those
who have followed the maneuvers OF
the Turk in the last fifty years Is
the assurance with which today he is
making HIS stand ait the Dardanelles.
He has not varied a jot in his de-
mands from the day he sent his re-
fusal. 10 acquiesce in the revised
Sevres treaty. Instead OF receding
from his position. in accordance with
the inslzence OF Great Britain, he
is crowding each day In greater
numbers denantly into the neutral
zone. This is not the shifting policy
OF the Sultan and the Young Turks.
They stood firmly only until Europe
put pressure upon them; then they
waited for fate and division among
their enemies to save them.
What is the reason for this show
OF assurance? In the first place. he
has now. as he has always had. a
divided western Europe TO deal with.
In France he has a friend; perhaps
also in Italy and the Balkan States.
He is opposed by Great Britain, but
a Great Britain cautious in the face
OF a strong Moslem population in
India, Egypt and the Sudan. In the
past he faced two other. strong and
avowed enemies, Austria. who never
forgaye him his efforts to capture
Vienna and annex Hapsburg ter
ritory, and Russia, who always
sought to rid Europe of his presence.
These two neighbors with their
fleets and their immense armies only
awaited a chance TO swamp him
with the superiority OF their forces.
Imperial Austria is no more. Rus
sia today is more an ally than an
enemy.
But this is not the only change.
that has come in the situation. Lord
Salisbury is credited with saying at
the Congress OF Vienna that IL the
Turk only knew It he would be
richer II he gave away half OF his
empire. The Turk gave away moth
ing. but allied Europe performed on
his Asiatic domain an operation
which reduced its size by at least
a half. II Topped off Hejaz and the
Yemen, or all OF Arabia except Ehe
desert, and in addition Mesopo-
tamia and Kurdistan.
