M0SLEMS TURN FROM RUSS ID
 TURKISH RULE
By Associated Press

| Baku, Azerbaijan, Soviet Repub- lie, January 21-The success of
 Turkish arms against the Greeks is
 stirring the Mussulman world. and may in time have far-reaching eff feet on Russian influence throughout
 the Caucasus, Turkestan and Persia. There is tendency onsthe part of Moscow, tired of settling inter
 minable disputes. to let these various
 outlying republics, sovietized by
 force of circumstances and red army greed. to go their own way, tempo
 rarily. and certainly the republics
 have not been slow to reassert their
 old local power.
 Imperial Russia formerly had a
 sort of blanket rule, called vice
 royalty, functioning In the Caucasus, consistlng of seven provinces and five territories, for region popu- lated by 12.0o0,0oo persons, three
 times the size of New England and thre- fourths as large as Texas
 Moscow has lately proposed to re-
 vive this old central form of gov-
 ernmert, in order to eradicate the boundary, commercial and customs
 disputes among the republics of
 Azerbaijan, Georgia Daghestan and
 Armenia. including lively side line disputes with Turkey and Fersia. But If there is any union 1t may be rather against than for Moscow. Outside of Georgia, If even not there.

His plan of campaign is now to hold on for awhile longer , with Russia. He claims that the British influence can be cleared out l or s-ll of Turkey, Persia and the Islamic peoples of Turkestan and India, by working with the Russians. He argues that when Britain has been defeated and Turkey Is once more politically independent, Russia can be dealt with, the soviet rule Ioverthrown here and in Turkestan, and the old order re-established. | \ DdChCu oP Oy ~AA~

 New York. January e1.-This town has been all stirred up the past few days over Benjamin Franklin. who still holds the championship as the only thing out of Boston and Phil adelphia to make a permanent inn pression on New York
 In ranking over the old gentleman's past for some fresh and spicy rem nant to furnish his birthday observ- ance, one newspaper scooped the town with the announcement that Franklin worked as a typesetter fin England. the land of his birth;" and other historians charged him with the invention of the .hiiocaI lens, the street cleaning department, the police force. and the harmonica.
 One could forgive Franklin the harmoniea if only he had refrained from the street cleaning and police department ideas. although of course the latter explains the popularity which this n-Philidelphian still enjoys in New York municipal cir eles. It is not. therefore, to be won dered at that the Gotham city fathe CTS were among those to gather round the Franklin statue in Park Row. d'bevelling it with wreaths, and a huge kite-the string tied to Frank lin's hand and the kite part flying high above city hall Not such an ill- chosen civic emblem, at that, when one considers the lofty financial ideas of the present city administra- ton.

Shanghai, January 21.-Efforts of certain Chinese of Shanghai to launch out in imitation of great American trading centers with the formation by wholesale of stock and brokerage exchanges have been fraught with so much financial havoc that not only has the Picking govern ment set about to take action, but the foreign police authorities of the international settlement as well have begun to show concern.
 The past year in Shanghai has seen the formation of scofes of "ex- changes" ostensibiy opened for the purpose of trading, generally in sta ples, but also in every form of com modity. Operating without restraints of any kind, shares, stocks and com- m0dities of every sort have been dealt with in the abandon of a get rich quick era which now has begun to prove most distressing to many victims.
