Uncertain Gamble of Child Adoption
Now Has Been Put on Scientific Basis

The procedure OF adopting baby.
generally regarded as a huge and un-
certain gamble with the future, can
be put on a scientific basis. How
this is already being done in connec-
ton with Connecticut child welfare
agencies is reported by Dr.. Arnold
Gesell, director of the Psychoclinic at
Yale University, who has written a
bulletin on the subject for the Chill
dren's Bureau of the Department of
Labor.
Hasty and impulsive adoption of
babies on the gorunds of appealing
ways or curly hair is all wrong, ac-
cording to this report. The child
less couple or the lonely woman wish
ing to adopt baby can start out with
more chance of success by learning
something about the baby's health,
mentality and personality.
DR.. Gesell urges that in all cases
of adoption there should be an ex-
haustive inquiry into the health of
the child. And he adds that it is
no less desirable to have made
psychological estimate. which will
define in a general way capacity and
developmental outlook" In addition to
these pre-adoption inquiries, he suS-
gests that there should be a proba-
tionary period of full year, with
follow-up examinations, so the esti-
mates may be revised, if necessary,
and so the compatibility of the child
and his foster parents may be put to
4 practical test.

When war between the allied nations and
Turkey came to an end the treaty of Sevres
re-estabshed peace. In that treaty, and In the
treaty of Versailles. Armenia was recognized
independent state. The late President
Wilson was designated to delimit the boun-
daries of Armenia, when dispute AROSE over
them, and President Wilson set the boundaries;
In the days when it actively proposed
that the United States become a member of
the League Of Nations, and President wilson
engaged in his campaign to bring that
about, he recommended to Congress that the
United States assume the mandate over Al
menia, and that the independence OF the
new state was not imposed upon But that was
far the proposal went. The Unlted states
did not enter the league, failed to ratify the
treaty of Versailles, and did not assume the
mandate over Armenia.
Within few years came war again In ASIA
Minor, with the Turks rising against the
Greeks and the Armenans. The Greeks were
driven out and thousands upon thousands OF
Armenians were killed. Turkey again assumed
control the Armenian territory. When
peace made and a treaty drawn up between
Turkey and the European nations, also at
Lausanne all mention of the Armenian nation
was omitted Armenia had again become Turk
ish soil, and the Armenians, except for a few
thousands, had been eXterlnlnated or df1Ven
out.
The treaty of Lausanne negotiated between
the United States and Turkey does away with
the socalled 'Capituations," the right OF extra
territoriaty claimed by the United States in
the past along with other civilized nations in
connection with Turkey. Under these capitula-
tions an American citizen who was charged
with committing crime in Turkey was tried
before American consular officers instead of
being hailed into a Turkish court, or before
Turkish ruler Nor were American citizens
thrown into Turkish prisons.
The United States in giving up these extra
territorial rights has done no more than the
other nations which formerly claimed and exer-
cised them. Great Britain, France, Italy and
all the other nations which before the World
War exercised these rights abandoned them
in the treaty which they, too. negotiated with
Turkey at Lausanne, and which was signed
lust before that with the United States.
In the opinion of Senator Borah. such capitu-
lations are a thing of the past, and Turkey. as
an independent government, could scarcely be
expected to continue them
x X
The terms of the treaty of Lausanne, while
generally known. were not made public Off
cially in this country until last week, when
under the instructions of the foreign relations
committee Senator Borah sought and obtained
the leave of the Senate to make the treaty
public.
Article III of the treaty has this TO say about
Evening star., 1926-03-28
By BISHOP WILLIAM T. MANNING
OF NEW YORK.

Many questions are asked me about
strict divorce law. Here are two
that are typical: Does strict di-
vorce law tend to the increase of i'm
morality? 1t does not. The state
ments that it does so are without
foundation. This is shown by the eX-
perience of South Carolina. where d.
vorce is not granted for any cause.
and of Canada, where the divorce law
is a. strict one. In the year 1916 Can
ada had only 81 divorces, while the
United States had 112.036. There is
no evidence that the morals of the
people of Canada are unfavorably af-
fected by their divorce laws.
Another question often asked Is
this: Is not a strict divorce law a
cruel and unjust thing to many inno-
cent sufferers? 1t is not. That legls-
lation is most truly merciful and kind
which secures the highest good Of So
ciety as a whole. Jesus Christ was
the most kind and merciful teacher
who ever stood on this earth. He tells
us that for the good of all, marriage
must be held sacred and says: Those
whom God hath joined together, let
not man put asunder.'
Constantly we see in the newSpa-
pers notices of divorces obtained in
Paris or elsewhere by those whose
names are well known among us and
who seem to have forgotten their duty
to God, to society and to their coun-
try. In not q few cases the real rea.
son for the divorce is the desire to
marry some one else. In many in.
stances the new alliance is not only
in mind but is definitely arranged be-
fore the divorce is obtained.N The
moral degradation of such a situation
needs no comment.
We have now reached the point at
-shich there is in the United States
divorce ito every marriages. 1t
IN growing steadily worse, and in
MANY of our States il has gone far

Wide Open Door of Divorce Courts in US.
Blamed for Breaking of Marriage Vows

bevond this. Statistics show. for eX
ample, in Ohio l divorce for every
marriages. in Texas l to 80. in Mich
igan to 5.S in Oregon ! to 2.6. while
in Nevada the statistics show 1000
divorces to 900 marriages.
Plainly this threatens the very eN-
istence of the family as an institu
ton. 1t is destroying the meaning of
marriage and is making it only
temporary arrangement. to be ter
minated at the whim of either party
to it. How can home exist if ii is
understood that it may he dissolved at
any time on the most trivial grounds
and often merely because those who
entered into this sacred relation have
become bored. or because one of them
wishes to form an alliance with new
partner? Homes cannot be built and
cannot endure on such a foundation
as that, and a nation cannot endure
unless it preserves the Sacredness ami
stability of the home.
The wide open door of the divorce
court Is itself the greatest cause OF
the increase of divorce. If divorce
we're hard to obtain. as it is in Canada
great numbers of those who new run
to the courts for trivial or serious
reasons would find that they could
overcome these difficulties and live
their lives together happily. l have
been in the ministry more than 81
years. in close touch with people of
every kind in five different States
from the Pacific Coast to the Atlantic.
and from my own experience 4 am
certain that the great, majority of
those who now seek the divorce
courts would find it possible. if they
knew they must do so, to live happy
married lives.
We need an aroused public senti-
ment and we must all help to create
this; we need better laws and we must
all work for these: we need more
teaching as to the meaning and re
sponsibility OF marriage. but most of
all we need the deepening Of re.
ligion among our people.

FTER hanging FIRE Tor more imam TWO
~ years and a half the treaty to regulate
"A general relations between the United
"A States and Turkey signed at Lausanne,
Switzerland August 8, 1928, is to be
brought up soon in the United states Senate
for ratification.
The ratification if the treaty be ratified, will
not be accomplished without fight. Opposi-
ton, which has been largely responsible for the
long delay, revolves around the failure to pro-
vide in the treaty for special protection for
Christian and racial minorities in Turkey and
the harsh treatment accorded the Armenians
by the Turks
On the other hand the supporters of the
treaty. including many of the American mis-
sionaries and teachers in Turkey and Ameri-
cans there engaged in business, are urging rati-
fication on the ground that with the re-estab-
lishment of relations between the two govern
ments. conditions should be ameliorated, even
for the Armenians. and business should be inn
proved between the United States and Turkey.
For eight years there have been no diplo-
matte relations between the United States and
Turkey. This country broke off such relations
during the World War, when Turkey was the
ally of Germany and Austria, although the
United States never declared war against Tur-
key. During this period, and today Spain,
through her diplomatic and consular officers.
looks after the interests of Turkey in the
United States. The United States is represented
at Constantinople by Rear Admiral Mark l..
Bristol, U. s. N, high commissioner" and by
half a dozen attaches, including Sheldon l..
Crosby, counselor.
Senator William e Borah. chairman of the
Senate foreign relations committee. will lead
the fight for ratification of the Lausanne treaty
in the Senate. The treaty has, of course. the
support of the administration. 1t was negotiated
by Joseph c. Grew. at present Undersecretary
of State. but at this time United States Min
lister to Switzerland and Ismet Pasha, minister
of foreign affairs DR.. Ria Nour Bey, minister
of sanitary affairs, and social welfare. and Has
san Bey, former minister of national economy,
all representing the government T the Grand
National Assembly of Turkey.
When the treaty ordered favorably re
ported to the Senate Senator Swanson of Nir-
ginia ranking Democratic member of the COM
mittee, voted in opposition. Senator King of
Utah another Democrat, is strongly opposed to
ratification, and will do his utmost to prevent
favorable action by the Senate. Senator King
visited Turkey Syria and neighboring territory
during the last congressional recess and made
a study of conditions there. He is convinced,
he says, that this country should not ratify
the treaty. More particularly is he aroused, he
saws, over the treatment accorded the Ar
menians by the Turks. people who for many
centuries have been Christians.
Senator Kings purpose in fighting the Lau-
same treaty is to force the negotiation of a new
treaty which would guarantee protection to
the mnorities in Turkish territory and assure
them freedom of worship. Furthermore, he
