C.—Efforts by the government to prevent profiteering in coal as a sequel to the recently ended strike advanced a step when the sen ate and house passed the conference | report on the anti-profiteering bil! and sent it to President Harding | The bill grants wide powers to the Interstate commerce commission to prevent profiteering by placing em bargoes against dealers making un reasonable profits, This measure is one of three upon which the administration is counting to insure an adequate coal supply this winter to ordinary consumers at rea sonable prices. The other two are: The Borah coal commission measure, now in confer ence, creating a fact-finding commis- sion with power to get data on pro duction and distribution costs and Sec- retary Hoover’s plan for a voluntary agreement by public utilities and big industries to buy coal on a “day to day” basis, instead of competing for big supply, thus running up the price and depriving householders of their share FRUITS AND BERRIES The loganberry is a cross between the blackberry and raspberry.

London.—Large British forces witti| hewy artillery have been landed at} strategic points in the Dardanelles, | prepared for any eventuality | Great Britain is prepared to fight} to maintain the freedom of the Dar | danelles. | The Near Eastern crisis has given! rise to fears that the Turkish national! | ists might turn from their successes over the Greeks to attack the neutral! fone around Constantinople. With this in mind, Great Britain ts reinforcing her troops in Constanti nople and has ordered the Mediter | ranean fleet to oppose by every means | any infraction of the neutral zone or| any attempt by the Turks to cross over to Europe | Great Britain also has invited) Greece, Roumania, Jugo-Slavia and| the British dominions to give their) assistance in this, if necessary. France | | and Italy are said to agree with Great | Britain on the necessity of maintain: | ing the neutrality of the straits. | The British government holds that) if the allies were driven from Con | stantinople by the forces of Mustapha Kemal! Pasha it would be an event of the most disastrous character, pro ducing far-reaching reactions, not only throughout all the Moslem coun tries, but throughout all the states de feated in the late war, who would be profoundiy encouraged by the spec; tacle of the undreamed of successes | which have attended the efforts of the comparatively weak Turkish forces. | Moreover, the reappearance of the victorious Turks on the European , shore would, it is held, provoke a situ: | ation of the gravest character through: | out the Balkans and very likely lead to bloodshed on a@ large scale in re gions already cruelly devastated BiG BRITISH FLEET — IS SENT TO STRAITS Constantinople-—The entire British | Atlantic fleet is being sent to rein. | force the Mediterranean squadron tor | the protection of Constantinople and) the Straits of Dardanelles. This undoubtedly will create the/ most formidable armada of warships | ever assembled in an area of like size, ! embracing the most modern dread:! naughts, battle cruisers, destroyers, | submarines and aircraft carriers. British officials here feel confident | that {f the allied land forces are not | sufficient to check an attack on the Dardanelles by the Turkish National: | ists, the combined fleet, together with | French and Italian war vessels, will| be more than adequate. There is an increased feeling of se- curity among the population of Con-| stantinople as a result of Great Brit ain’s energetic measures. The high est military authorities declare the Turks will not commit the folly of | opposing such overwhelming forces. It is now ascertained that only 20, 000 Greek soldiers remain under arms | out of the army of 250,000. These} are in Thrace, retention of which ter-! ritory by Greece is seriously doubted here.
