While the cabinet members appear to

clusion, for the moment, of a diff
Guilty which might have necessitated
the use of force in the Chanak zone.
there are other bridges to cross. Up
to the present there is no information
from General Harrington, the British
commander at Constantinople, that
kema will attend the Mudania confer
ence, although General Harington's dis
patches indicate that he might.
The Mudania meeting will be a pure
1y military affair, to arrange. accord
ing TO the original allied note to KemaI
Pasha, that the neutral zone shall be
respected, and also to agree upon lines
behind which the Greeks are to with
draw IN Thrace, both points pending the
general peace conference There will
be present military representatives Of
the three allied powers, as well as of
Greece and Turkey.
Quibble Over Neutral Zone
1t is pointed out that the very basis
Of this conference is respect for the
neutral zone, and. before it begins the
Turks will be expected to evacuate the
Chanak area entirely. On this point
there had been quibblng until the
British cabinet permitted General Har-
lngton to send a virtual ultimatum to
the Turks to clear out. Although the
Turks have not yet withdrawn com.
pletely, they have evacuated the heights
OF Eren Keui and have desisted also
from parading before the British wire
entanglements.
If the Turks around Ismid commence
such actions, or attempt to enter the
neutral zone, at that point. there Isl
hkelihood that the British viii raise
the question before entering the con-.
ference. 1t is known that while Cen
eral Harrington is making every effort
to maintain peace, he is a most exact
ing and determined person when given
cause.
Another question which may arise
within the conference is the form Of
government control to be established in
Ihrace pending the terms of peace.
1t Is considered that the Turks win
demand that they be permitted to take
over and occupy Thrace Immediately. TO
protect their nationals. The conferences
promises many disputes. In some dip-
!omatic circles there is q certain optim-
ism. 1t being pointed out that the Turks
are too wise to fight when they know
they risk all by such a course, whereas
they are assured of many advantages
before the peace conference"

BRANCH BANK PLAN

FINANCIAL HOUSES
Delegates Plan to Register
Against Idea at A. B. A.
Convention

| New York, Oct 1.-On the eve OF
what promises to be the largest and
most important-the forty-eighth an
nual-convention of the American
Bankers association, which opens Mon
day, independent bankers representing
all section of the country met in pre-
liminary session Sunday and planned
a campaign to put the gathering on
record against the establishment OF
branch banks by the larger national
banking houses.
Sundays preliminary session as
sumed the proportions Of mass meet
ing with bankers delegations present
from Chicago, Keokuk, Ia; Topeka,
Kan; Covington, Ky ; Cleveland, Pitts
burgh, st. Louis, Los Angeles, Mime
apolis, Baltimore, Portland, Ore, and
other cities. Anti-branch bank head
quarters has been established in the
Biltmore hotel by the Chicago and
Cook County Bankers association.
May Force Resolution
The bankers at Sundays meeting de-
convention a resolution placing the or
ganization on record as against the
branch bank plan, by which national
banks in the larger cities may main
tain establishments in other cities and
towns. They also will seek to have
the body disapprove by resolution the
alleged support of this plan by d. r.
Crissinger, comptroller of the cur
rency. The branch bank plan, they
contend, threatens absorption, if not
destruction, of state and independent
banks and trust companies in smaller
communities, with the result that the
metropolitan banks will ultimately dom
mate the financial conditions in these
territories.
Approve Financial Progress
A poll Of financiers gathering for the
convention indicates unanimous salts
faction with the nations progress up
ward from the valley of postwar de-
preston, and belief that at least two
years of good business lie ahead. The
prosperous era, however, has not
reached the proportions of a BOOM"
it was the conviction of the bankers,
speaking of conditions in federal re
serve districts of the east, south, and
middle west
Almost without exception, they ex-
pressed belief that the United States,
for its own welfare, must concern it
self more industriously with the re-
juvenation of Europe.
'"Two outstanding problems perplex
u.s." said Thomas b. McAdams of Rich
mond, Va, president of the national
association. "They are the industrial
controversy and unrest at home and
international financial difficulties
abroad. To these problems we will ad-
dress ourselves with unmistakable
vigor."

is past The withdrawal of the Turks
from the Eren Keui and, as semi

of the Angora governments readiness
to comply with the allied desires.

has greatly contributed to the solution
Of the difficulty. AT the same time,
Mustapha kemal is praised for having

officials are anxious that Great Brit

Pity the Poor Working Gfrl---1.
have received a letter from a
woman who believes that the pretty
girl stenographer is the greatest enemy
that exists to- domestic peace and
felicity. She says:
81 know hundreds of women who
are made utterly miserable on account
| of their husbands stenographers.
They see themselves growing old at
home, bearing children, and perform
ing the multitude of duties incumbent
upon a wife and housekeeper, and they
grow wild when they think of their
husbands spending<their days in the
company of pretty little flappers,
young enough to be their daughters
The remedy for this situation is co
Operation. Let the wives unite and
form a union that will pledge itself to
| ostracize all women who work in a
mans private Office g.
Surely this is jealousy gone mad.
Any woman who can look at the army
of young girls who march down the
streets of every city in the land every
morning as they go to fight their
daily battle for bread, and see in them
lonIy conscienceless vamps who are
trying to steal some other woman S
husband away from her, has become
so sreen-eyed that she cannot see
straight Her vision is Jaundiced.
Why, the very fact that a girl earns
her money by hard work instead OF
getting it by devious ways is PROOF OF
her honesty of purpose 1t Is no easy
thing for a girl to sacrifice her play
time Of life, and bury her youth anu
beauty in a dingy office. 1t is a hard
thing, and a, pitiful thing, for her to
have to stand behind counters When
her feet are aching to dance, and Tor
her to have to pound a typewriter. or
add up dreary columns of figures
when her whole being cries out in
longing to be a butterfly, and INT
from pleasure to pleasure.
Therefore, when a girl has the
character and the grit to elect to work
the hard road instead of dally1ns
along the primrose path; when she
has the good feeling that makes her
willing to work eight hours day
rather than be a burden on her poor
old father; when she has the herolsm
that makes her take upon her little
tender shoulders-as thousands upon
thousands of working girls do-the
burden of her family's support, 1t
seems to me that older women, and
more fortunately situated women,
ought to crown her with laurels, and
give her every encouragement ana
support they can instead of talking
about ostracizing her
For one thing wives may be sure
and that is that office work is no
picnic 1t is a nerve wracking, mo-
notonous grind, and no girl does it for
pleasure, or for the sake of being in
the same room with a harried bust
ness man.

Probably there has been little doubt
in anybody's mind that the high rates
of the ey-McCumber bill would
have the effect of forcing consumers
10 pay higher prices. That is what a
tariff is for, regardless of the fact that
its advocates insist that it is to prevent
unequal competition. But it is dem
onstrated that it does not seriously in
terfere with competition in every case.
The imports from Great Britain to
the United States in 1910 were SO per
cent higher in money value than they
were in 1909. The explanation is that
the jump in American prices follow
ing the sudden increase Of tariff rates
is high enough to bring about imports
in spite of the tariff wall. In 1910,
we had business Improvement as COM
pared to the previous year. This of
itself tends to bring about increasing
imports. 1t is the belief of the Brook
Enire Economic Service that business
Improvement of 1928 may have like
weight in bringing about sufficient
price increase, so that imports under
the new law win be as high as under
the old. What then will become of
the theory OF preserving American
Jobs for American workmen?

TIE PREsIpENrs MEssAGE.


President Harding yesterday full
filled expectations by making an ear
nest plea to congress to pass the ship
Subsidy bill. His appeal was couched
in language which left no room fot
doubt of his sincerity and honesty of
purpose. 1t was an appeal worthy of
a better cause.
His comparison of a ship subsidy
TO a highway subsidy seems to lack
convincing force. The ocean high
way already is in existence without
cost and is free to all who wish to use
it, Land highways must be made and
cannot be constructed without money.
1t has not@been proposed to subsidize
owners of land vehicles in order TO
induce them TO use the roads. Why
