IS a a t u v;uiuli HARDING BETTER; ABANDONS PARK TRIP ---- Last Hopes for Turks Abandoned Lloyd George Is Pessimistic of Eastern Civilization— } Says Lausanne Pact Not Peace. Monkey Bite Historical London, July 28.—The Turk may be a bad ruler but he is the prince of anglers. The cunning and patience ■with which he lands the most refrac tory fish, once he has hooked it, is beyond compnre. What inimitable play we have wit nessed for six months on the shores of Lake Leman! Once the fish seemed to have broken the tackle—that was when the first conference came to 0^**n abrupt end. It simply meant, however, that the wily oriental was giving out plenty of line. He knew the moment would come when they would return with the hook well In their gullets and the play begin once more—the reeling In and the reeling out; the line sometimes taut and strained, but never snapping. Time and patience rewarded him. At last the huge tarpon are lying beached on the banks — Britain, France, Italy and the United States, high and dry—landed and helpless, without a swish left In their tails, glistening and gasping in the sum mer sun. Turks Can Angle Well. It Is little wonder Ismet had a smile on his face when all was over. Re ports from Angora state that peace is hailed there as a great Turkish tri umph. And so it is. If the Turk could govern as well as he angles, his would be the most formidable em pire In the world. Unfortunately be is the worst of rulers, hence the trouble—his own and that of those who unhappily have drawn him as governor in the lottery of life. The able correspondent of the Lon don Dally Telegraph at the Lausanne confereno# supplied us from time to time with vivid pen pictures of the four greatest powers of the world snuggling In the toils of the squalid and broken remains of an empire with an aggregate population equal to that of a couple of English coun p«*«tries I could name. This is what he wrote a few days ago; "The records of the conference present an even more marvelous se Hes of concessions and surrenders. What was frayed before is thread bare now. The allies have whittled away their own rights with a lavish hand In the cause of peace. The fig ure that the European delegates are cutting In Lausanne and the agents of the concessionaires In Angora—all alike representatives of the west—has been rendered undignified as much by the manner as by the matter of their worsting.” . Condition (trows Worse. Since those distressing words were written the powers have sunk yet deeper into the slough of humilia tion. The Times correspondent, wiring after the agreement, writes in a strain of deep indignation at the blow inflicted on the* prestige of the west by this extraordinary treaty. In order to gauge the extent of the disaster to civilization which this treaty Implies, it is only necessary to give a short summary of the war alms of the allies in Turkey. The ex periences more especially of the past century had demonstrated clearly that the Turk could be no longer en trusted with the property, honor or lives of any Christian race within his domains. So a series of agree ments were entered Into in the early months of 1915 between France, Rus sia and ourselves by which the ^^•reater part of Turkey, with its con ^Sflomcrate population, was to be par titioned at the end of the war. Cilicia and Syria were allotted to France, Mesopotamia to Britain and Armenia and Constantinople to Rus sia. Palestine was to be placed under the Joint control of Britain and France. Arabia was to be declared independent, and territory carved largely out of a desert—but Including •oma famous cities of the east. Da mascus, Homs and Aleppo—was to be constituted Into a new Arab state (Turn to I’ugo Stttn, Column fill.) Coast in Grip of Hot Wave; 114 Registered at Needles By International Nfw» lorrirp.

Will you help the farmers in their present emer gency? A great crop of wheat is ready for market, under dis couraging conditions. Some of this wheat will, or should go abroad. If it goes to other countries, it must travel long distances over the railroads. A temporary reduction in the freight rates on wheat ex ported is asked. An emergency rate, to give American wheat a chance to get to the seaboard for shipment to foreign con sumers ahead of the flood that soon will be poured out by rival producers from other countries. All the grain growing region of the middle west is concern ed in this, and the concession is asked by the people as a contribution from the rail roads to the general pros perity of the territory they serve. The people have it in their power to ask for this rate through the I. C. C., but that will entail delay in the pro cess. The railroad executives have it in their power to make the relief asked immediately effective, by authorizing a re duction of 25 per cent in the all-rail rates to the seaboard on wheat intended for ex port. Because the executives can do this without the de lay that would follow if an other course were taken, the appeal- is made to them di rect. In other periods of stress or calamity, the railroads have done all they could to aid in the general restoration of good times. This is not a national calamity, in the usual acceptance of that term, but it is a serious mat ter to the wheat growers, who constitute a large element of the national industry. Will the railroads remain deaf to the farmers’ appeal? We believe not, but in con fidence address you on behalf of the general community, the citizens represented by the various organizations, cham bers of commerce and the like, united in the movement to secure the aid of the great railroad systems of the coun try at a time when a little help counts double, because it comes at a time when it is needed.
