"A new world conflagraton may
ensue unless Great Britain, Italy
and France come promptly to accord.
1t was their failure to act in concert
that caused the present situation to
develop.
Had the United States joined the
League of Nations, the dominant
moral prestige of our country could
have prevented the disagreement be-
tween the allies and brought about
an agreement in regard to Turkey.
Then Greece would not have dared
to begin the war
But Greece is Immediately re-
sponsible for the present condition.
During the war that nation was un-
der the leadership of VeniZelos, who
proved himself one of the foremost
statesmen of the allied powers. Aft
ter deserving so we'll of his country
he was deposed and made and exile.
Had he been at head of affairs,
Greece would not be in the plight
she is in today. To escape from this
plight, to avoid another war, ! would
emphasize the necessity of these
steps: G) there must be immediate
agreement between allied powers:
Great Britain, France, Italy and the
others and (2) Venizelos should be
recalled immediately and placed in
power of Greece.
"And furthermore, if we are go
ing to avoid another war, the Yer
sailles treaty will have to be mate
rally revised. This revision is pos
sible only if the allied powers come
to prompt agreement. Only a solid
diplomatic front on the part of the
allies can bring Kemal and his forces
to terms.
1T is a world calamity that we
have not co-operated with the allies
by Joining the League of Nations.
Had we joined, the present stu
alton, | believe, would not have a1is-
en-. AS things now stand, it is with
in the realm of probability that for
enlightened self-interest we may be
compelled to take a part in pre-
venting world conflagration and in
restoring peace.
"And all this menacing condition
finds its cause now, as in the past,
in the opportunity given to the
Turks by the mutual jealousy of
those who opposed them. The pres
ent lack of concord between Great
Britain, France and Italy emphasizes
the fact that the Treaty of Versail-
les was in many respects unwise and
was stimulated by a spirit of revenge
rather than by that of calm and for
ward-looking craftsmanship"

ALLIED SPLIT
DRAWS AMERICA
TOWARDS WAR
Oscar Straus, Keen Student Of
World Affairs, Sees Danger
In Existing Situation
By JOHN o'DONNELL

NEW YORK, Sept 21.-Present
conditions in Asia Minor are so seri-.
Gus that there is great danger of
a recrudescence Of the World War"
declared Oscar S. Shaus, twice min
ister and former ambassador to Tur-
key, in an exclusive interview today.
The former ambassador, who is
probably as familiar with the Turk
ish question as any other man in
America, emphasized these points in
his interview:
ONE: Turkey, Russia. and Ger
many, with one or more of the Bal
kan states, may pool their forces
against the allied powers.
TWO; The United States, for its
enlightened self-interest, may be
compelled to take a part in prevent
ing a world-conflagration and in re-
storing peace.
THREE: A general conflagration
can be avoided only if (a) Great
Britain, France and Italy reach an
immediate agreement and (b) if the
Treaty Of Versailles be materially
revised.
FOUR: The present menacing
condition would not have developed
had ,"the United States, under any
reservations we chose to make, join
ed the League of Nations"
FIVE: Venizelos, Greek premier
exled at return of Constantine,
should be Immediately recalled and
placed in power"
Il do not wish to be prophet of
evil" said the former ambassador, +"
but the danger Of arr outbreak of
the World War is great. I say great
because the present state of affairs
may bring Germany, Russia, Turkey
and one or more of the Balkan states
together in close alliance.
THE militarist and monarchial
parties in Germany have nothing to
lose and everything to gain, in their
estimation, by joining with Russia
and Turkey. Furthermore the Rus
sian Soviet system would be i'm
measurably advanced by such an all
lance
To-day, Russia has in readiness
the greatest army in the world. That
army, organized and led by German
officers, can be enlarged to any ex-
tent.
with the world exhausted as it
is, bleeding at every wound, another
war carries with it the possibilities
'of endless woes in the disorganiza-
tion it may bring within the allied
nations themselves"
Straus discussed the causes Of the
present situation.
For the past 100 years the East
ern question has menaced the peace
OF Europe not because of the domi-
nant power of Turkey but because
of. the jealousy and the antagonistic
interests of European powers in re-
spect to Turkey.
"The diplomacy of the Turk has
been to take advantage of this an
tagonism.
The present situation has devel-
oped because Turkey took advantage
of the jealousy between Great Brit

DEMOCRATSSEE
fight BREWING
IN CONVENTION
Plan To Place Watson Man On
Ticket For Pension Office
Is Opposed

,ATLANTA, Sept. 2l.-During the
past week persistent reports have
been heard that the Democratic
state convention which meets Oc-
tober 4 in Macon, would nominate
q candidate, who was d supporter
# Govelnor-elec Walker, to run in
the November general election for
state pension commissioner to sue
ceed the late Mr.. J. W. Lindsay.
A dispatch from Warrenton stat
ing that the name of Major C. f,
McGregor of that city would be pre-
seMted 10 the convention by the
Warren county delegation, gave col
CT to these reports. Major McGreg-
or is recognized as being close
friend Of Senator Thomas Z. Wat
son, and made several speeches ad-
Vocating the candidacy Of Governor
elect Walker in his recent race
against Governor HardWick.
The message quoted him as say
ing that if he became pension com
missioner, his chief clerk would be
Mr.. Samuel Askew, who served un-
der Commissioner Lindsay. Dele
gates to the convention at Macon
will be announced by Governor-elect
Walker in the next few days.
Chairman VIM. j. Vereen has is
sued call for a special meeting of
the subcommittee of the state exc
cutive committee, TO be held at the
Dempsey Hotel, in Macon, at II
o'clock Friday morning, for the pur-
pose OF checking over the handling
OF the recent primary, getting the
data in shape and preparing to turn
the affairs of the party over to the
Macon convention on October 4.
When that meeting is held it is
now known that the matter Of the
situation in respect to the pension
commissioners office will be brought
to the attention of the committee
and request will be made that the
existing committee take some action.
Committee Controlling Power.
The committee in office at this
time is the controlling power in
Democratic party politics in the
state, and the vacancy existing at
this time comes within the party pow
er of the moment. 1t is known that.
IN response to inquiries made I'M
mediately after the late Judge John
W. Lindsay's death, the official
statement came that the entries in
the primary would not be reopen
ed because the official ballot had
been prepared and sent out over the
state, but the race for pension com
missioner would be an open one in
the general election in November
and all candidates would have the
full and fair opportunity to run at
that time. That information appear-
ed to meet with satisfaction. and
was viewed as not at all in conflict
With the Neill primary law. Infor-
nation is had the result in the pri-
mary been different that policy
would have been carried out.
Since the primary has passed, the
official announcement comes from
Washington that Major G. f. Me
Gregor, of Warrenton, will be nomi-
mated by the state convention, put
on the party ticket in the general
election as the Democratic candidate.
and any body. else who wants to
run In the general election will have
to make the race as a Republican or
an Independent.
