Isle of Rhodes and concessions IN
the Asia Minor littoral which gave
her the control of rich mines in an
cient Cilicia and port on the coast.
In this way France and Italy plucked
the prizes of eastern Asia Minor be-
yond those which fell by the Sevres
treaty to Greece. France got abb
solute control OF the eastern part of
the Bagdad railway. italy got the
richest mineral wealth of eastern
Asia Minor and the most accessible.
It is the Greeks contention that
these two treaties were the cause OF
their defeat in the Salt desert on
their second invasion of Anatolia.
The immediate withdrawal of French
and Italian troops which had been
opposing the Turks gave Kemal the
desired opportunity to throw his en-
tire forces against the Greeks.
Renal defeated, Nationalist
Government overthrow and h o
Sultan returned as the real power of
Turkey would make a treaty signed
at Angora a piece of paper. But
Renal as the head OF Turkey makes
his treaties fully operative and in
force. The reason for espousal of
his cause by France and Italy be-
comes fully apparent.
But what France and Italy pro-
fessed to see in Great Britain's aid
to Greece was the creation of a
strong and friendly Power in south
ern Europe which would form a bull
wark for the Suez in the eastern
Mediterranean. The Greek pre-
dominance in the Near East, her
control of the Straits and perhaps
her eventual occupation of Constan-
tinople would be the erection by
Great Britain Of another Gibraltar.
me Mediterranean would thus pass
from French and Italian control and
II would become in diplomatic par
lance a British lake" Thus we
are informed from Paris that Lord
Curzon's task in France is to con-
vince Premier Poincare that the
British do not Intend to make an
other Gibraltar OF the Straits bus
that bigger issues are at stake, and
that the future of the Balkans and
the relations OF Soviet Russia with
the Near East depend upon safe
guarding Constantinople from Turk
ish occupation"
The American interest is not IN the
preponderance of power in the Medi-
terranean, the concession in, mines
or the control of railways What
the people of America remember are
the Armenian massacres. the horrors
Of the burning OF Smyrna and the
murder of thousands of defenceless
Christians. They know the Turk.
They know his history Of atrocities
and barbarities. They know that he
is out OF Europe. They believe he
should stay out. They understand
and appreciate Great Britain's posi-
ton. They cannot understand that

ELY TEAM TAKES
CAME FROM COOK.
SMALL CROWD SEE ELY AND
COOK PUT UP A FAIR
GAME.

Chaperoned by Geo. Peterson,
who owns the distinction of placing
the first ball team into Hibbing
years ago, and Gust Buboltz lover
of sport, the Cook team arrived
here Sunday in cars for a game
with the Ely boys. A few weeks
ago, the White Iron team went to
Cook and were trounced at fair
clip and this popped up the boys
from that town to such an extent
that they thought the Ely team
would be next in line.
To the credit of the visitors it
must be said they put up a good
game in gentlemanly way and
were ably assisted by a crowd of
rooters who were gentlemen in all
that the name implies. Early in
the game it became evident that
the Cook boys had no chance to
win, but they played for all there
was in it and gave the spectators
fair exhibition for their money.
Gianotti on the mound for Ely was
not forced to exert himself to any
alarming extent and had every
thing his own way up to the sixth
inning when a couple of errors al
lowed two runs for the visitors.
Vein, for Cook was pulled in the
sixth inning and his place taken by
Remington.

MASTER V|O[|N|ST
in GRAND CONCERT.
A TREAT AWAITS THE PEOPLE
OF ELY ON SEPTEMBER 20.

Arrangements have been complet-
ed for concert in this city at the
Auditorium on Friday, September
20 by Josef Konecny, the famous
Bohemian Violinist, under the aus
pices of the American Legion Aux
iliary.
Konecny has played in the big
musical centers of this country and
in practically every state of the
Union, as well as in other parts of
the world, and is considered by his
critics to rank among the foremost
violinists of the present day. He
is the son of a Bohemian black
smith. He studied with Sevik
(teacher of Jubelik), and is a
shining example of what can be ac-
complished by interchangeable indus
try, energy and perseverance.
Mr.. Konecny's playing is charac-
terized by great depth of inter
probation, tonal beauty and brilli-
ance of technique. His technical
efficiency enables him to negotiate
the most difficult passages with APP
parent ease.
He will be assisted by two dis
tlnguished American artists: Esther
Luella Lash, Soprano, and Margaret
Gary, Pianiste.

former teacher of public speaking
in the Ely schools and will prove

Miss Fortier. Rehearsals for Louisa
M. Alcott's Little Women" are to

Stage Craft at the Mason School
of Music and Dramatic Art in
Charleston.
Miss Fortier has been connected
with the Minneapolis schools for
the past year, having inaugurated
the department of public speaking
in. the Mill City schools. She has
been most successful in her line
OF work and the Charleston offer
comes in the nature of a promo
ton, which is most gratifying to
the young lady's many friends, who
wish her the same measure of sue
cess IN her new venture as she has
enjoyed in the past"

HIGHWAY MEMBERS
MUST STEP ON Err.
TRUNK ROUTE PATROLMEN
MEN MAY BE FORCED TO
WORK EXTRA HOURS.

It's the busy season for patrol
men on the Babcock roads serving
Ely and vicinity and in all other
parts of Minnesota.
Keep the roads as smooth as
possible in spite of continued heavy
travel and dry weather, making
sure to drag Immediately after the
first rain and at night if necessary
to avoid roughing up by traffic
that is the first order according TO
the state highway department bull
letin calling attention to unusual
difficulties under existing conditions.
And with the first rule come
many others. Patrolmen are direct
ed to cut weeds as soon as possible,
cooperating with district weed in
spectors. In northern forest sec
tions they are expected to assist
rangers in preventing and fighting
forest fires-which also means night
work for many. Instructions re-
beats promptly after rains to in
sure public safety in case of wash
outs.
The bulletin adds that farmers
along trunk routes can make the
it obstructs the view at highway
intersections. This suggestion is
made following reports of increas-
ing numbers of accidents blamed to
blind intersections. Another pro-
posal is that rows of corn be left
standing this fall to serve as snow
fences wherever possible on stretch
es that were drifted last winter.
This plan has been demonstrated as
thoroly effective in several parts of
the state.

FEDERAL ROAD AID
GOES FAST AND FAR.
BUREAU OF ROADS BULLETIN
SHOWS MINNESOTA FUNDS
SPREAD OVER BIG MILE
AGES.

Minnesota trunk highways are be-
ing economically improved as rapid
ly and extensively as incoming
funds allow according to a COM
parative showing in a late bulletin
issued by the United States bureau
of public roads at Washington.
The government figures from the
basis of the following table of
Minnesota figures compared with
averages for all the states but COW
ering only highway improvements
on which government money is be-
ing used:
~ Average Minnesota
Miles, --- 27s LAS
Cost, miles 1s,O5O S 9,150
Cost, job 10O.326 95,289
Fed. Aid. job 42,615 36,925
The foregoing figures follow
those on which the government &C
corded Minnesota the distinction of
leading all states for completed
mileage of federal aid roads.
The showing is regarded by
friends of the Minnesota road pro-
gram as remarkable in view of the
big bond issues and other liberal
financing provisions being made in
other states for highway develop
ment. 1t establishes that Mime
sofa is using road funds as they be-
come available to extend benefits as
far as possible, building reasonably
good roads at low costs rather than
shorter mileages of costly highways.
