Hats Of in Turkey.

When Renal Pasha, the President
OF the Turkish Republic. forbade the
wearing Of the fez and himself adopt
ed a European garb and headgear
he did not reckon upon the complex
ties which that radical change Of
custom would cause. The fez was
more than fashion. It was almost
vertically a rite. Faithful followers
of the prophet were firm in the be-
lief that Mahomet had enjoined
them to wear nothing upon the head
that would interfere with their UP.
ward vision. So the brimless head
covering became in q way a religious
institution. Renal Pasha, however,
is not given to all the Islanic Gus.
toms and has banned the fez as q
sign Of unwarranted devotion to an
outworn belief. 1t is now reported
from Constantinople that difficulties
are arising in consequence Of the new
order. Formerly, before the fez was
forbidden. it was mark Of respect
not to uncover the head on the pass
ing of q funeral in the street. Now
a police order has been issued re-
curing all men to uncover on such
an occasion. There are mutterings
against this radical innovation, but
Renal has a way with him, and prob.
ably in short time the new-hatted
Turkey will be doffing generally. The
passing of the fez has removed another
of the picturesque features Of the
world that are yielding to modernism.
The new Turkey, whatever it may
become politically and economically,
will not be as interesting, in appear
ance at least, as the old.

Home Buyers and Cost Housing.

One phase Of the proposal for Gov
ernment-aided cost housing for Fed
eral employees and their families which
is to be thoughtfully considered is the
effect upon those department workers
who have become property owners,
and whose interests cannot fail to be
menaced by the plan to provide ac
commodations on philanthropic
basis.
A great many of the Government
employees have during the past few
years undertaken the purchase Of
properties. Some of them were COM
PEELED to do SO during the wartime
congestion, In order to assure them
selves of housing. Some did so through
wise thrift. In most cases they are
still paying for their homes, in Install
ments, looking forward to the time
when they will be owners without
mortgage and depending in considera-
Bile measure upon the Advancement
in the value of their properties for
future ease and security.
A cost-price housing project, &C
commodating 10000 persons, would
cut the values of these home buyers,
who would. in effect, be actually pay
Ing for the cheaper housing of those
accommodated by the philanthropic
enterprise. 1t would likewise serious
ly affect those who have invested their
savings in Washington realty securi-
ties.
A QUESTIONABLE is about to be con-
Quoted among the Government work
ers to ascertain the reaction to the
proposal to erect a series Of great
apartments renting at cost at an esti-
mated rate OF $685. a month a room.
Those who have already started to
buy their own homes are likely to vote
in the negative. Only those who are
still renting houses or apartments
will voice their approval Of the plan
Whose interest is to be most highly
considered? If the voice of those who
have no stake in the stability Of val
ues is to be needed against those who
have-and the number Of the latter, 1t
will probably be found, Is high-then
serious injustice will be done to the
property owners.
But, after all, the question recurs
to the need of the project. Is there a
demand for housing here which can.
not be met, or is there a sufficient
supply of accommodations? Are the
prices charged for housing, in rental
or in purchase, unduly high, or are
they reasonable? II they are high, in
the face Of a surplus Of buildings and
rooms. are the rates being kept up by
artificial means, by combination or
agreement on the part of the owners
and promoters?
Should not the inquiry upon which
the plan is predicated seek answers to
those queries, rather than the desire
OF a certain class of the Government
workers for cheaper housing? Let the
need be demonstrated before q remedy
which runs counter to the principles
OF economics, and which menaces the
interests of large percentage Of the
Federal employees, is adopted.

SHOOTING STARS.

From Gay TO Grave.

But as he tossed his Jest into the

And when he wearied of the bauble

And in high-hatted garb went on dis.

Diplomacy he muddled with finance
And often led the world a dangerous

Credit of Surplus
to Annuities Urged
To the Editor of The Star:

To the Editor of The Star:
In connection with the story of how
a large number of Government en-
ployes will lose from to s cents
year, appearing in your paper of
August IL, 1 would like to suggest
that if such is the case l should think
the amount instead of being turned
into the Treasury should be applied to
the retirement fund. I am sure that
would meet the approval of all Gov
eminent employees rather than have
the amount a loss from the small
salaries now received by some en-
ployes.
In that way the day may come
when the old retired employee may
get sufficient to help live better than
now on the small annuity.
