SULTANIC PALACES
 HAVE NO USE NOW
New Turkish Government Finds
 Odd Puzzle On Its Hands

Istanbul, May 9. [P-Wanted, by the Turkish Republic: suggestions or how to make republican use of five imperial palaces.
 When Mustapha Renal began his creation of a new Turkey he solved the problem of the sultans by the simple process of exiling the last shadowy occupant of the Ottoman throne. But after eight years he has not solved the problem of what 10 do with the sultans' dwellings.
 Minor summer palaces of princes, princesses, and pashas are being rented to the Turkish equivalents of Tom, Dick, and Harry, for ten dollars a month, with few takers even at that price, or are being utilized as tobacco factories or orphanages. But over five of the six 'sultanic palaces in Istanbul question marks hover.
 Only one of the six has found ] definite new destiny. The olde 7. and most famous. the Seraglio butt bJ Sultan Mohammed. conqueror 0: Constantinople, in 1462, has been transformed into a museum. The residence of the last Caliph. the enormous rococo pile of Dolma- Bagthe (Stuffed Gafden). SO huge that its'marble quay stretches for 1 800 feet along the Bosphorus, has been put into sporadic use as Il summer residence for MustapAa Renal. But now that the ghazi has built himself a summer capital at Yalova. he is not likely to use the place again as a dwelling.
 Istanbul's dance addicts an l they number thousands-have sug- gested- that Dolma- Bagtche would make an ideal dance hall. They argue that there is no other build ing in town big enough to accom-, modate Istanbuls increasing hordes or fox-trotters who at present en- l dure the Crusnes at Turkish cha~- l ity balls in no very charitable mood, The government has given no answer to this dance hall 1 project.
 Yildiz Palace, towering in a superb park above the Bosphorus and favorite residence of Sultan Abdul Hamid the Red, blossome briefly under republican skies as I gambling casino during the govern ment's abortiye attempt 10 convert the Bosphorus into another Riviera with this MoSte Carlo as a starter | The alarming rate al which Turk ish citizens rather than the hoped for tourists lost at the roulett- tables made the government speed ily rebret it's venture.
New Britain herald., 1930-05-09

The Italian manager went bank rupt, and the shutters at Yildiz are closed again while the government debates the possibility of turning it into a college for girls. the first Turkish rival to the American col lege for women further up the Bos- phorus.
 Turkeys newly inaugurated tour ist policy" includes the scheme O. turning other palaces into hotels, b.t Inc falling off in the number of visitors this year has temporarily shadowed this project. r. the tourist trade and Turkeys finances in general pick up, hotels may still be made of the beautiful marble palace of Beylerbey where Empress Eugenie once lodged az magnificent guest of the Ottoman Empire and where gruesome Abdul Hamid died. Of the palace O. i Tcheregan, reduced to a marble skeleton by the fire of 1910, but q skeleton whose every bone speaks O. splendor; and of the smaller charming Bosphorus palace of Gueuk-Sou tSky Water) which stands at the mouth of the Sweet Waters of Asia.
