REAL TURK ORDEAL
AHEAD, SAYS GATES
President of Roberts College,
ConstantinopIe, Tells of
Reconstruction.

NEW YORK, October 3.-Recon
struction presents more difficult prob
Iems than any yet solved by the
new political leaders of Turkey, in
the opinion of DR.. Caleb +. Gates,
who has sailed to resume his duties
as president of Robert College, Con-
stantinople.
Turkey came out of the confer
ences with the European powers
triumphant" DIR. Gates pointed out.
But the most severe ordeal is yet
to be faced. The financial situation of
the government is precarious. Trade
is stagnant and the governments
revenue has decreased as a result of
the withdrawal from the country
many foreign business concerns.
THE government is likely to be
blamed for this situation. and con-
siderable dissension among the Turks
themselves is expected" Dr. Gates
said. But, in spite of the loss of a
large part OF the population and the
disorganization. every effort was be-
ing made to improve transportation
and develop the country" he said.
Policy of Leaders.
Making Constantinople the capital
of province instead of the Turkish
empire is consistent with the gem
eral policy of the new government
The leaders moved the seat of gov
eminent to Angora in order to es-
cape the foreign influence prevailing
in Constantinople. They want to be
masters of their own house and to
make their country homogeneous.
THE responsible leaders realize
that education and tolerance are es-
sentfal. The government is paying
greater attention than ever before
to the development of the school
system and has repeatedly given evil
dence of it's friendliness to the two
American institutions-Robert College
and the Constantinople Woman's Col
1ege. Permission has been given
Creek and Armenian students to
return, even though persons of
those nationalities are not now
allowed to freely enter and travel
sn Turkey. The special income anS
salary taxes that would have beer
a serious burden to our teachers have
been either removed or materially
reduced"
Face Many Difficulties.
DR.. Gates said that many difficult
ties also confronted the two colleges.
but he was hopeful that they would
be solved. The decreased attendance

changes during the past year without

that Peter had dived through that
hole. He had expected to land on
Peter when he came out on the other
side. He was sure that he had
planned his jump so that he could
not fail. But he hadn't landed on
Peter and no Peter was In sight. The
dog looked up along the hedge, he
looked down along the hedge. There
wasn't sign Of Peter Rabbit. Then
he ran little way up along the
hedge with his nose to the ground.
Then he turned and ran down a little
way with his nose to the ground.
There was no scent Of Peter Rabbit.
All the time Peter had been running
as fast as his long legs could take
him. He had been running twice as
fast as he had run with the dog be-
hind him. BY the time the dog had
recovered his wits and jumped back
over the hedge Peter had reached the
end Of It and was back on Farmer
Browns land. In fact, he was safely
in an old hole once dug by Johnny
Chuck.
Cav, cav. caw!" shrieked Blacky
the Crow delightedly. Peter is
smarter than I thought. Yes. sir. he
is smarter than I thought"

RABBI ASSA|LS
BRYAN AND
SUNDAY
Says They Are "Throw-backs
in Religion" Who Don
Garb of Church.
BY international News Service.

COLUMBUS, Ohio, July 20.-"Billy
Sundays may come and go. organs
may come and CO.. But that in the
Bible which will not contradict the
intelligence of man will live for
ever" declared Rabbi Jacob Tar
shish, addressing members Of his
congregation in Temple Israel here.
Rabbi Tarshish characterized Billy
Sunday and William Jennings Bryan,
both of whom have vehemently
flayed persons, including clergymen
and professors in universities and
colleges who support the Darwinian
theory of the evolution of man as
"throwbacks in religion"
BILLY Sundays mouth Is not ex-
ceptionally clean, and, sometimes,
his language is a degradation to the
religion which he assumes to up
hold" said Rabbi Tarshish. I'm
calling every minister who does not
believe in the Bible story as the
literal explanation of creation dam
nable FOOLS he has insulted every
liberal minister and every professor
in the larger universities of Amer
ica."
The Rabbi said Sunday and Bryan
are comparable to the "throwbacks"
known to science, the freaks of
the circus sideshows. Sunday donned
a doctrine that was outgrown years
ago, Rabbi Tarshish said. He was
pleased, he added, that 1.-The Presby-
terrain assembly gave Bryan a rap
on the knuckles by refusing to
appoint him AS moderator. That
action showed that the Presbyterian
church is looking forward, not
backward"
We cannot accept the Bible as
Billy Sunday and Bryan accept it,
because we want to see the church
go forward. The days when the
church forced a literal belief in the
Blple were the Dark Ages" said
Rabbi Tarshish.

PORTLAND, Ore, July 20.-The

"She can't walk down the street,

So far az the female Of the spe-

Oscillation, according to the scien-
tito Joy killers, raises a young
mans blood pressure to the danger
point and sometimes results in
death. Indications are, however,
science to the contrary, that the
young generation-and some of the
older ones-will go right ahead

Eminent British Steel Manufacturer

Copyright, 1929. by Cosmopolitan
News Service)
NEW YORK, July 19.-As to the
business and industrial outlook this
fall in Europe, conditions will prob
ably be no worse, but no better,
until the Ruhr question is settled.
Confidence is gone, exchanges are
gone, trade is paralyzed-this is the
situation we have everywhere to
face.
The occupation Of the Ruhr by the
French has resulted in increasing
the price of steel three pounds ster-
ling-about $14.50-on the ton. This
condition has existed since the early
part of 1923. The steel works, which
constitute the basic industry Of Eng
land, are stopped having been thus
directly affected through the trouble
in the Ruhr.
Where industries are tied up, of
course, trade is paralyzed. The Ger
mans used. to import 80,000,000
pounds of goods from other coun-
tries before the war. Consider how
this paralysis of the industries must
inevitably affect them and how this
condition must in turn affect the
trade Of other countries of Europe
today, especially England

CHICAGO VIEWS
ASKANCEPORT
EXPERIMENT
Difficulty of Long Passage
Seen as Harmful for Direct
Route to Europe.

CHICAGO, July 2O.-Chicago has
received the announcement, that
about the middle of August the first
of a fleet of sixteen new steel nul'eo
ships will leave here for England
and ports on the Baltic sea, with
a mixture of emotions.
Joy that a long cherished dream
of some day becoming port for
ocean-going ships seems near real
ization is tempered by a cautious
inclination to be shown first.
William Hansen, of Bergen Nor
way, a veteran steamship owner,
has picked the best of his fleet for
the experiment of making Chicago
a port The vessels are all OF about
1000 tons burden and draw four
teen feet of water, when laden.
They will pass through the Welland
canal, and the Gulf of st. Law
renee, touching at Montreal before
proceeding to. Liverpool, Southamp-
ton and the Baltic.
The first ship will have capacity
load and there is promise of enough
freight for the others to give the
new line a fair chance to make
good.
The fly in the ointment is the
longer time that will be required
to deliver cargoes across the At
lantic. The tentative schedule for
the new boat line calls for ten to
twelve days between Chicago and
Montreal and as long to England.
Under average conditions, by rail
to tho Atlantic seaboard and across
on, one Of the large boats requires
ten to twelve days-it has been
done in eight days-and prospective
shippers are demanding to be told
what inducements in the shape of
lower rates they can expect for
tying up the money invested in
cargoes for ten days to two weeks
longer than they have to under
present conditions.
Then, too, there is a question as
to whether the new ships can be
fully loaded in Chicago and get to
open sea. The present plan-al-
though little has been said about
it's said to involve loading to
only one-third capacity here and
taking on the rest at Montreal.
Will it pay to ship by rail to Mon
treal and load aboardship there?
Chicago will be glad if the answer
is in its favor. The figures of the
Department Of Commerce at Wash
ington show that fully fifty per
cent of the annual exports of the
United States originate at Chicago.
If some large portion Of that can
be put on ships at Chicago and
sent to it's destination direct in
safety and at a rate that will make
up for the handicap of a longer
time in transit the new line should
prove q success.
Meanwhile Chicago will give 1t
a try-out.
