YIELD TO TURKS!
Return of Moslem Power in
Europe Assured When Allies
COncede All Demands.

Paris, Sept. 23.-The return Of
Turkey to Europe was assured
tonight, when Great Britain,
France and Italy, at the final
session of the allied conference,
unanimously agreed to concede
to all the nationalist peace terms.
The Turkish claims to Eastern
Thrace to the Martha River, in
Guiding the ancient Turkish cap
ital Of Adrianople, were ap-
proved as peace terms that can
be supported by France, Great
Britain and Italy in a joint invl-
tation sent to Mustapha Renal
Pasha, the Nationalist leader, to
a peace conference to be held at
Venice soon.
The Kemalists must agree, in
return, not to enter the present
neutral zone along the straits,
nor make any crossing elsewhere,
and must accept complete free
dom of the Dardanellcs, the sea
of Marmora and the Bosphorus,
preferably under the League Of
Nations.
The invitation, which was
cabled tonight by M. Poincare to
Renal, personally urges an i'm
mediate meeting of the allies and
Turkish and Greek generals at
Mudania to formulate terms OF an
armistice pending the conference.
1t is regarded as virtually GER
tain that Renal will accept the
conditions. \ reply is expected
from Smyrna in a day or two.
Turkey is promised the sup
port of the three allies for admit
tancc to the League Of Nations
and also withdrawal of the allied
troops from Constantinople as
soon as peace becomes effective.
The allied decision came as a
surprise, for as late as noon Brit
ish officials declared that Great
Britain would not approve any
of the Turkish claims in advance
of the peace conference. The
change in this policy came after
an exchange of messages between
Lord Curzon and Premier Ll0yd
George and several telephone
conversations which delayed the
final session from 9 O'Clock to 3.
Although the British tonight
insist that their chief demand,
mainly freedom of the straits. is
embodied in. the conditions, it
generally is conceded that this
unanimous decision marks a re-
vcrsal of policy on the part OF
Great Britain and is considered
here victory for Turkish di-
plomacy. NJ. 'Poincare expressed
the belief that the near East
crisis is over.

$40 Month for Vets is Bursum
Bonus Proposal.

Washington Sept. 21.-A new
bonus bill was introduced in the
senate late today.
Senator Bursum. New Mexico,
presented a substitute adjusted
compensation measure, which in
general incorporates many OF the
features Of the vetoed Fordney-
McCumber bill.
The bill provides for a bonus
of 500 per month for war veter-
ans. In addition provisions are
included which are aimed to
equalize the money lost by vet
Grams by reason of their joining
the army as compared with
wages earned by those who re-
manned at home.
The bill was referred to the
military affairs committee, where
it is expected to die.

Home Improvement Week.

October 8 to IA has been desig-
mated as Home Improvement
Week. There seems to be lit
tie uncertainty as to who did the
original designating, but the
week will be observed in many
states, including Missouri.
Plans for Home Improvement
Week range all the way from the
installation Of floor mop to the
establishment Of. a model home
complete in every detail. In Mis-
souri, county home economies
agents are centcring their atten-
ton upon such matters as i'm
proved kinds Of equipment for
cooking, cleaning and other
household processes, water sys-
TENS, waste disposal, lighting and
heating systems improved meth
dds of doing homework.
A number of counties are
planning household Improvement
tours for the purpose of visiting
farm homes equipped with varl-
GUS kinds Of modern appliances.
In other counties a series OF
meetings will be held at which
farm women will give demonstra-
tons in the use Of improved farm
equipment while others will re-
port on the value Of such equip
ment in their own work.
Window displays are being
planned and articles prepared
for publication in newspapers.
The purpose of the weeks ac-
tivities will be to impress upon
men and women alike the adj
vantages of a well equipped
home. Modern equipment IN
the home is just as essential as
modern equipment OH the farm.
Neither can function up to its
full possibilities without such
equipment. Home Improvement
Week has as it's objeet the in
creasing of the aggregate effl-
cheney OF the home making ac-
tivities Of the state.

Press Button, Army Wiped Out.

Washington, Sept. 2O.-Dis
covery of a new method of ma

against attack by land, sea or

NAME 214 AT HERRIN
Blame for Mine Massacre is Fixed
in Report by the Illinois
Grand Jury.

Marion, ILL.,, Sept. 23.--Declar-
ing the state administration un-
doubtedly realized the acute sit
uation' at Herrin before the out
break in which twenty-five men
were killed last June the special
grand jury. which has been in
vcstiigating the rioting, today
made a report of arraigning Ad-
jutant General Black Of Illinois,
Sheriff Melvin Thaxton OF Will
hanson County and the local
police" and returned total OF
pa indictments.
1.-THE atrocities and cruelties
of the murderers are beyond the
power of words to describe" the
report asserted. "A mob is al
ways cowardly, but the savagery
of this mob, in its relentless bru-
tally is almost unbelievable.
The indignities heaped upon the
dead did not end until their
bodies were inferred III unknown
graves.
The attack on the strip mine,
which resulted in the twenty-five
deaths, had been planned several
days, the report asserted, and
Sheriff ThaxtOn had ample time
to learn of the proposed move
ments on the nonunion men.
Ransacking Of hardware stores
for arms and ammunition just be-
fore the attack was the result of
a telegram from John L. Lewis,
president of the United Mine
Workers, to STATE Senator Will
liam Sneed. declaring the nom
union men to be strikebreakers,
the report said.

SO it will not be necessary to
walk miles to prepare and serve
a single meal.
Work table. stove, cold stOragc
space, sink and cupboards should
be arranged SO that few steps
are retraced and long distances
avoided. Small equipment should
be stored where it is first used
and where it is easy to reach.
Well planned cupboards, shelves
and hooks will solve the prob
lem Of storing supplies and uten-

How Many Miles to Dinner?
Housekeeper Walks Many
Needless Miles in Un-
handy Kitchen.

Conveniently arranged kltch-

miles of walking in year, ac-
cording to surveys recently COM
pleted. Seventy per cent OF the
