Special Dispatch to The Star.
CHICAGO.-Mark 7. Mckee of De-
troit, noted welfare expert, declared
that training children in the proper
use of leisure was one of the greatest
educational problems of the present
day.
Training in the correct use of
leisure" said Mr.. Mckee, should be
made an essential part of the cur
riculum of every school. Leisure is
one Of the most precious and yet most
dangerous gifts in the world. Wisely
employed, it makes for spirituality
and the cultivation of the finer things
of life. But it is a'menace in the
hands Of those who do not know how
to use it. Many of our young people
spend their leisure time In, idleness.

joyriding. The more leisure they

cording to the police, resided at 318

sides at 73 X street.
Dinsmore had been employed in the
bank the past four years. He was look
ed upon as a faithful and efficient en-
ploye and was slated for promotion. 1t

portant changes were recently made,
To date. Mr.. Hughes has only general
knowledge that the concessions COM
prehend extensive rights for oil, rail-
roads. port facilities, town building
and other important economic pur-
poses.
Question of Arbitration.
When France or Great Britain chal-
lenges the legitimacy of the Chester
concessions our delegation at Lau-
same will promptly announce Amer
lean readiness to submit them to ar
bitration. Such a declaration would
only follow indisputable proof that
the concessions were obtained In due
process of international procedure in
pursuance of the rights of American
nationals to seek open door oppor-
tunities At the first Lausanne con-
ference when an issue arose with
Great Britain over certain American
oil claims in the near east. Ambassa-
dor Child proclaimed our Willingness
to arbitrate. Precisely the same pro-
gram will be pursued II the Chester
deal provokes opposition.
The Turks are returning to Lausanne
in the undoubted guise of diplomatic
victors. They come almost as vlctors
in war for they contrived at the pre-
vious conference to tear into shreds
the treaty of SevreS. imposed upon
them by the allied powers at the end
of the world war. By exploiting the
diSsensionS among Great Brltaln'
France and Italy over both Iur klsn
and European questions. Ismet Pasha
extorted from the allies an agreement
to abandon the SevEeS treaty pro-
vision for allied domination or the
Dardanelles. The Turks first whitfield
down the Sevres indemnity from
$50, ,O00, 900 to s75.000,000 and then
wiped it out altogether. They coerced
the allies into yielding up the "capitu-
lations" whereby foreign powers
would maintain their own courts, and
accepting instead a system whereby
the Turks, for all practical purposes
become complete masters or the 1u-
dicial system in Turkey.
Agree to Deal Direct.
Instead of maintaining their man
dated-area claim to boundary
stretching over Mosul. the British
succumbed to a Turkish proposal to
let the league of nations decide that
question.
Finally, instead of agreeing to
treaty with economic clauses" which
were an intolerable infringement
upon their sovereignty and dignity,
the allies agreed to an arrangement
whereby their nations shall deal dl-
rect with the Turkish government
for regulation Of pre-War CONNER
cial and financial privileges.
Both the allied statesmen and the
Turks will embark upon the new
Lausanne parley wiser than when
they entered its predecessor. None
of the powers, including the United
States, is sending as imposing dele
cations as they did before, a host or
really vital matters having already
been settled-in Turkeys favor. Ad-
miral Bristol will not go to Lausanne
this time. The new conference will
speedily demonstrate whether Ismet
Pasha has evolved new strategems
for sowing fresh dissension among
the western nations. The United
States government is wide awake to
the pitfalls and intrigues with which
the situation bristles. 1t is not at
all likely to be drawn into them.
Uncle Sam will watch his step.
