in refusing to give the Hohenzollerns up to justice, assumed a measure of responsibility for that act which 1t has failed to discharge.
 Briefly the Philadelphia Public Ledger disposes of it: cone more trouble-maker, one more center of in- t1fgue, is loose in Germany" Says the Memphis Commercial-Appeal. "The coincidence in the advent of Willie into Germany and the attempted seizure of power in Bavaria by Luden- dorff make 1t appear as if the plan was an attempt to place Willie on the throne. Happily, the so-calIed brains has proved to be so much sawdust with which the whole monarchistic move ment was stuffed and Willie's ambition will be as hollow as a doll from which the sawdust has escaped. It will be just as laughable."

Christian powers. That was g tri- umph, not of diplomacy, but of char acter, the character of Mustapha Renal Pasha.
 Kemal Is not sport, an oddity, 3 lonely exponent of progress and rear ing himself in solitary state upon the sleep of centuries. Rather Is he the leader of a definite and numerous group of modern Turks. He is a public hero iA land in which a pub lie sentiment has already developed into force to be reckoned with. That sentiment Is voiced in part by news papers modern in their spirit and point of view. For example, might not this sentiment have been appropriately ex- pressed in any Occidental journal: "The occupational forces do not leave the comment of the Constantinople us as our enemies, but as friends with whom we are at peace?" Yet it is the comment of the Constantinople Vatan on the withdrawal of allied au- thority. As to the future the Vatan, as quoted by the Literary Digest, re- marks: "Let us not deceive ourselves into thinking that we can rest rejoic- ing on the laurels we have gained. We have strenuous work to do, pert sonal sacrifices to make, if as united people we are to assure progress in all that Is required for maintaining our place as nation"
 Of course, Turkey is Oriental, and the ways of the East are not our ways. But who will deny that Tur- key faces brighter future and under a finer leadership than in all her dark and dreadful history7 One might al most give three cheers for the presi- dent and the press of the republic of Turkey. At least, we may extend our good wishes.

KEMALATURKEY's WASHINGTON

If one must give the Devil his due, surely one may do no less for Turk. Ii there ever was Turk deserving of credit, that Turk is Mustapha Renal Pasha, first president of the Turkish republic, and only recently elected. Renal is the George Washington of Turkey. He led his people out from under the yoke of intolerance and op- pression. He was and is the head of Turkeys victorious, armies. Like Washington, he might have been king or dictator for life. Like Washing
 ton, he declined the honor on the ground that the responsibility was too great for one man to sustain for more than brief period. Like Washing ton, he was unanimously chosen as first president and for the same term of four years, with eligibility to a second term of the same length. h. deed, it seems almost as if Renal had taken Washington for his model and the Turks patterned their new re- public after ours. If so, we are duly honored, for are we not a nation of unbelievers?
 This Kemal Pasha is, when all is said and done, very much of a man. He has taken an American wife and denied himself harem. He Is a monogamist and has let it be known in no equivocal manner: Perhaps his wife had something to do with it and with his enlightened public policy. Certain it is that Kemal met the brains of Europe around the council table with the cards stacked against him and won, hands down. As events have later shaped themselves it ap- pears that the maligned Turk was the only member of that conference sat Lausanne who had no ulterior motive. and who met subter.fuge with discon- certing frankness and directness. so that, in the end, those who fought for special privilege had to yield to those who fought for country. The Turk even came back into Europe peace fully and with the consent of the

mallard and other popular varieties were annually becoming scarcer. Un- der protection of the law migratory fowl are fast reappearing in Southern waters, and many canvasbacks have returned to Mobile and Baldwin coun1 ties in this state and all along the Gulf coast tributaries, while other toothsome ducks and waterfowl are rapidly increasing in that section. Thus the wisdom of the law, without which these splendid migratory fowl were being driven from Alabama and Southern waters, has been demon strated. Instead of restricting the field for hunters, it greatly enlarged their opportunities.

 IMPROVING THE MOVIES

The presidents of two motion-pic- ture production companies announce their views regarding the business end of the industry. There is being con- ducted study of the industry with view to lowering the cost of pro- duction. Some have suggested de- crease in the number of films, but the two presidents referred to believe that there is great waste in overhead which can be eliminated. For ex- ample, one of these officials alleges that directors consume too much time in the making of pictures and that the great expense of maintaining com panies on location makes serious and unnecessary additions to the cost. The other says that there are so few out standing and excellent directors, art directors, composers, film artists, con- tinuity writers and others capable of turning out good work that the pro- ducers are constantly bidding against one another for their services. The result is salaries out of proportion to the value of the returns.
 It is suggested that the producers form an association for the purpose of absorbing overhead and also to CO., operate in the training and develop ment of more experts in all phases of motion-picture making. This is ex- pected to reduce competitive bidding for star producers and performers. As further means of adding to the in- come of the film companies, it is sug- gested that films be rented to exhib- itors on a percentage basis.
 All this more or less leaves the public cold, because out in the cold. There is no emphasis of any benefit to the patrons of the movies except such as may arise from the discovery of better performers and the writing of better photo-dramas. Yet the at titude of the public towards the movies is recognized as vital factor. The public mind demands variety, and, as 1t becomes surfeited with the poorer plays, higher quality of per- formance. Those who enjoy motion pictures will often patronize inferior pictures because of their love for the art. But in the long run they must have something better or give up the habit.
 Fortunately, there is a decided im- provement in production. Criticism has done its work and is showing re- suits. The best books are being dra- matized and the best dramas are being novelized, if one may coin the word. The idea that humor must be slap, stick in order to get across and that emotion must be exaggerated and in tensified in order to make its impress sion is being discarded as artists dis cover that real acting is far more easily interpreted by the spectator than over-acting. The movies are im- proving, and perhaps that is what the public will get out of the reform now in process within the industry.

INCREASE IN WATER FOWL.

Recent appointment of large num- Der of county game wardens increases the hope of conser.vationists through out the state for more effective pro- lection and propagation of game and fish. Included in the appointments were full-time wardens for Jefferson, Montgomery, Dallas and Mobile coun- ties, in which there are more hunters and fishermen than in any other coun- ties, and which, therefore, need more protection. Wardens for. these four counties will devote their entire time to the work, and with the sympathetic and active cooperation they may ex- pect from organized conservationists, increasingly fruitful results are looked for.
 From efforts of organized conserva- tion clubs in various parts of the state a betterment is already noted. Game, fish and wild life conditions through out Alabama, and especially in those sections where conservationists have organized and aided in the movement, show marked improvement. Much of this work has been educational, and has produced notable effects through better understanding among former destructionists of the rapid response of wild life to protection.
 It is interesting in this connection to note the change in public sentiment towards the federal migratory bird law introduced upon the earnest rec ommendation of the late President Roosevelt. At first there was con- siderable resentment growing out of an impression that the measure struck at the personal liberties of sportsmen as we'll as commercial hunters and trappers. Before and for some time after the law went into effect the splendid canvasback duck practically disappeared from the waters along the Gulf coast, and reduced numbers were seen in the public sanctuary in the Louisiana marshes, while the red-head,

WARRIOR RATE DECISION

state Commerce Commission, appor- tioning to the Warrior barge lines seventy-five and to the railroads twenty-five per cent. of the receipts for joint hauls, is equitable or not it is impossible for the layman to deter mine without knowledge of the per- tinent figures and facts. At any rate, 1t is far more equitable than the ar engagement it supersedes whereby the railroads took the lions share of the proceeds for only small fraction of the service rendered. In some cases the barge line has paid to the rail- roads more than it has received for a given haul in given class. That is now ended by the tardy judgment of the federal commission.
 In spite of the handicap under which it has been laboring the Warrior has been making steadily improving showing. The business offered long ago outgrew the capacity of the barges, and the embargo on certain ports and commodities was due in part to lack of equipment. The welfare of the Warrior is a public concern and is charge upon the government. The next congress will be invited to con- sider waterway appropriations, among which will be million or so to be de- voted to building more modern barees for the Warrior. In view of the in- creased prestige of the Warrior due to it's improved financial status and to the prospective port development at Mobile, it may very we'll be that the war department will see fit to ask for an appropriation even larger than at first contemplated.
 Secretary Weeks has specifically stated that the amount of Warrior ap- propriation would depend in great de- gree upon the financial showing the barge service would be able to make. Within the next two months the ser vice should feel the effects of the rate division, and the slight deficit that has prevailed hitherto should be converted into substantial balance. The in- mediate earnings of the barge lines for some reason have had more weight with administrators of this utility than the tangible benefits to commerce and industry in the way of rate savings for which the waterway is directly respon- sible, whether this saving is on barge hauls or wholly or in part by rail. This attitude does not comprise the vision characteristic of the best fore sight and highest statesmanship, but if it can be satisfied, the public bene- fit will be the same in either case.
 The Warrior is undoubtedly now in better case than it was. If it should turn out later that further rate ad- Justments are essential to just di. vision, then will be the time to urge them. For the present, what is done is done, and the patrons of the water ways will hope for the best while be- ing on the alert to protect against any future threat.
