4 BLOW TO.BRiM English Editor Holds: Turks Rehabilitated-Regardiéss: of Next Moves. | BLAMES TWO' nmousl Finds England and France Lnrge-i 1y Responsible for Near East Crisi BY A. G. GARDINER, Britain's Greatest Liberal. Editor. Special Cxble Dispatch to The Star. LONDON, October A visitor from Mars to our planet might reasona- bly wonder today whether he had entered a madhouse. He would find: Europe trembling on the brink of a gréat war and discussing excitedly whether & nesro boxer gave Car- ‘pentier a foul blow. The public mind is bewildered by the hopeless tangle of the BEy- ropean puzzle and Y has turned with delight to the greatest populary sensation of these days. The vogue of Car- pentier is unparal- leled in the history of the prize ring nd_his popularity in England is as great as in France. It was unaffected by the hands of Demps sey, which was explained away an the ground of the difference In welght. But the sudden humiliation of his collapse before the unknowm: Sengalese created unprecedented as- tonishment. The film indieatés-that the knock-out blow was_of. doubgful legality, but the genéral impressioh 1s that if technically unfair it was not deliberately so. " If Africa, in the person of a ne@ro boxer, has lowered the flag of Europe in the prize ring, Asia, in the person of the Turk, has inflicted a more seri- ous humiliation. Whatever the out- come of the strange drama now en- gaged, whether it is peace or war, the Turk emerges formidable and re- habilitated. His triumph is due less to his own merits than to the de- plorable disagreements of the Chris- tlan powers, especially England and France. The mischievous policy fur- tively of encouraging the Turko- Greek conflict and backing opposite sdes invited the present disaster, and the overwhelming defeat of the Greeks loaves France, diplomatically as well as militaristicaliy, dictator ot the situation. Greeks' Fall Blow to British. The bursting of the Greek bubble Is the greatest blow British prestige s sustained. Curzon's efforts in Paris to overcome the fatal effect of the George manifesto met with some measure of success, but ihe practical effect of the developments has been to leave England alone to defend the Dardanelles pending -the dpnference and alone” confronting ‘the Moham- medan opinion behind the Turk. At the moment of cabling it is doubtful whether the Turk will push his ad- vantage by force of arms or await developments through negotiations. Much depends on France. "I cannot suppose that she wotld wish a-war which would make final the breach of the Franco-British relations and the gain from which would be prob- Jematical. Moreover, the little en- tente dreads restoration of Turkish power on European goil. Meanwhile Greece js in chaos and the military element demands that the army advance to the defense of the Thrace frontlar. The problem bristles with difficulties. Assuming that the confere: be held, ex- clusion of Russia would be 'gro- tesque. Control of the Dardanelles is & vital question to Russia and any settlement ignoring Ruseian interests would be repudiated. Freedom of the Dardanelles is vital to peace. but how is it to be secured? It was suggested that it be handed over to the league of nations, but the league does not include Russia, and, as the league has no armed force, it would have to hand it over to a mandatory power. ‘What power? England, France, Italy? There are objections to each and all. League Rupture Possible. The crisis completely overshadowed the conference of the league at Gen- eva, where a sensation was caused by Lord Robert Cecil's suggestion that the league control and use air wer as a_means of enforcing its authority. The proposal goes to the foundation of the league's position and raises the fundamental issue of the. employment of force. 1 am quite sure Lord Robert is honestly con- vinced there is no future for an un- armed league. No other considera- tlon would have brought so ardent & pacifist to this conclusion. The idea will create a great controversy with- in the league and may lead to a seri- ous rupture. 1f the Turkish crisis passes there is a strong impression that Lloyd George will seize the opportunity to %0 to the country in October. ~His position grows steadily worse and the longer the general election is de- layed the more danger of his defeat. e coalition government now is uni- versally discredited and the tory party is anxious to cut George and revert strictly to a party position. George is keen to make advances to his old friends on the liberal side and a strong view prevails that his dis. astrous appeal to the colonies against the Turk was intended to gain favor with the supporters of the old Glad- stonian tradition. If that was the object the result is singularly unfortunate. The liberals are hostile to Turkish rule in Europe, but equally hostile to the premier support of the Greeks in their ill- fated adventure which bas now brought Europe to a new disaster. The elections could hardly. be held under worse conditions for Lloyd George’'s prospects. (Copyright, 1922.) GREEN STAR DEAL NEAR. Ships May Operate From Gulf Ports in Panama-Pacific Service. BALTIMORE, Md., October 2.—Ne- motiations again are under way for the purchase or operation of the vessels of the Green Star Steamship Company. The seven large freight- ers, which made Baltimore a regular port of call, and on which _the Equitable Trust Company of New York issued mortgage bongds, are concerned in the deal, it is s&id, and the J. H. W. Steel Company of New Orleans is understood to be inter- ested in the acquisition of them. Robert W. Adams, receiver for the Green Star, does not deny the repo of the proposed sale, it is said, con- tenting himself with the statement that there is nothing to be said at the present time. The vessels are taid up and, if acquired by the steel company, probably will be operated in a Panama-Facific service out of gulf port: VETERAN POSTMAN DEAD. A!Wb.

WITHDRAW But British Inbor Leaders Cri cize Lloyd George’s Bel- ligerent Moves. BY HAL O'FLAHEHRTY. By Cable’to The Star and Chicago Daily News.

The sudden and belligerent flourishes from JDowning street have aroused clamor among the British labor lead- ers and aroused endless speculation in other European countries as to Great Britain's motive in thus court- ing hostilities so soon after “the war to end war.”” The writer has had it explained to him on good authority that Prime Minister Lloyd George and. his fellow cabinet members believe that_the only method of dealing suc- cessfully with the Turks is to throw fear Into them. h feel that France's proposal to rely wholly on diplomacy, is worthless so long as Kemal's troops are flushed with viec- tory. Therefore Great Britain has adopted’ every means of impressing the Turks with her military and naval strength. Fighting for the prestige, weakened by the Greek de-, feat, the British ministers felt that this country must go the-Nmit in en- forcing every condition laid down in the agreement of 1821 When the crisis ends it is certain that the Turkish people will look with admiration upon the British sol- diers who held Chanak alone when the other troops withdrew. Having gained their points so far, the British minlisters intend to ad- here to every clause of the recent Paris note. Kemal Pasha cannot move a single man into Thrace until after peace is arranged, nor can he occupy Constantinople before the peace conference has opened. Prime Minister Lloyd George must now weather a bitter storm of do- mestic crigicism, but after all he has gone a long way toward securing respect for Great Britain in the trou- blesome near east and when he faces his oppoments on the floor of the house of commons he may be able to point with satisfaction to the effect of his bellicose attitude.

' Tar From Roof Drips in Room. The first place visited was an:apart- ment house on § street northwest, where tenants of five apartments had made a concerted plea for relief. In_these apartments it was found that wallpaper hung in strips from the ceiling and walls, except where tacks had been found effective as a binder. In one of the rooms, on the fourth floor, next the roof, tar from the roof actually was seen dripping through the ceiling onto the floor, a conditfon brought about by a bad leak which had loosened the plaster. The owner, it was testifled, had refused to remedy the condition, and the occupant of thé apartment was therefore compelled to Keep a paper neath the hole in the ceiling to catch the tar which melted in hot weather, and to place a tub beneath the place when it rained. o In another room the plaster hag fallen in several places, exposing the lath, and large cracks indicated that a further collapse was impending. Mrs. Taylor told the occupant that the building in- spection department of ‘the District should be appealed to. . The woman in the apartment pointed: out that the building inspector could order the plas- ter removed where it constituted a menace to life or limb, but she declared he could not compel the landlord to re- place the plaster.

ATHENS DENIES TURKS IN THRACE MASSACRED Greece Also Announces Receiving Official Expression of Sym- pathy From Serbians. By the Associated Press. ATHENS, October 2—The Greek government, an official statement, denies the reports of Greek outrages against the Turks in Thrace. It de- clares that the Thracian authorities have discovered Turkish plots to at- tack the Greek authorities and mas- sacre the Christians, and have also found a large quantity of arms and| bombs. These were seized and the ringleaders arrested, Whereupon, the statement declares, the frustrated| plotters spread false reports of mas- sacres. . It is further officially announced that the Serbian minister here has visited the revolutionary committee and assured it of Serbian sympathy and promised Serbian diplomatic sup- port. He denied the nlleged Serbian designs in the Aegean, declaring that Serbia wished only that the queption of a free zone at Saloniki be settled.

The fear is expressed, however, that Great Britain will not consent ta such a plan, especially at a conference at which there is no pro- vision for Greek entation. Further damger to the success of the conference is seen in the firm decision of the British not to retire from Cha- nak, and should the Turks make this retirement one of tMelr conditions it is foreseen that an agreement might be imposstbles Apvroval of the Turkish proposal, it is pointed out, would be a substan- tial concession to the Kemalists, as the allied powers in their note made the neutrality of the zones of the straits one of their chief condition!

S TIE BINDING K RELIGIQU Orientals Object to Presemee of Christian Soldiers in Constantinople. BY JUNIUS B. WOOD. By Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily New, Copyright, 1922. CANTON, China, October 2.—Tur- key's influence as a connecting link between the orient and the occident is evidenced In distant China. The newspapors are rejoicing over the Kemalist victories, while India is verging on hysterics. “The confiict in Asia Minor involv- ed more than the two belligerents, says the, Canton Times. “The great combinations in India over the Turks' victories indicate Great Brit- ain’s Intimate relations with it. The near east is a vital factor in Britain's imperialism scheme. “England resorted vors on Greece in her losing war against the Turks, but the Turks were fogbidden to enter Constan- tinoople and were tolerated and help- ed only to the extent that it fitted in with Britain's scheme. France and Italy, realizing tbat they were plaving England's game, withdrew their forces, ;5 to showering Plea for Peace. “Thrace and €onstantinople ought to be returned to the Turks. It is unnecessary for British warships to lord over the waters of the region, antagonizing the commercial inters ests’ of other powers. England's hands are full enough without addi- tional burdens. “The spirit of the times is to live n harmony with and to respect the rights of others and to revive fallen foes. America, aiming at this, is en- deavoring to get Europe to cease military preparations and settle down to business instead of joining wars and fomenting others.” While Turkish influence westward om Constantinople possibly is nega- tige, eastward to the far shores of the Pacific sympathy and support for Turkey are positive and intense. Two great ties of race and religion bind the orient to the Turk. Vast Asia considers that the Ottoman government represents the orient’s miilions of M hammedans in Arabja. Russia and China, as well as those in Africa. Constantinople is the sacred seat of their religion, which is entrusted to the guardianship of the Turks, and they resent the presence there of Chris- tian troops. - Orlent With Japan. “In case of trouble between Japan and America India’s sympathies would be with Japan, not because they like Japan better than America, but be- cause the Japanese are an oriental peo- ple and the arient fears occidental op- pressors,” said a Hindu to the writer recently in explaining the ties of ori- entaliam. : ““Though tfiv‘fljurlgv th Arabs re: udiate. the /Turl hate. as the genll of the ndrdefl?c ‘31??..— elr sym- pathies for the Turks are Strong, not- withstanding they were enemies during | n. the late war. “America has not perseculed the Turks or meddled in Constantinopl therefore she is the only ally we co: sider a friend of Mohammedanism, said an Arab teacher in Jerusalem. “W are glad of -the first opportunity to see ‘an American. Arabs like America because Amerita gives Filipino Moham- medans religious freedom and brought preachers from Constanjinople to teach them.” v Close Religious Bond. “1 hope to visit the Philippines,” said a bedouin M his black tent in a lone some desert. Few westera powers except England and France realize the closeness of the religious bonds that knot these people with the Turks. Many of the latter believe that England's changed attitude toward the Kemalists is due to India, whoee agitation for non-interference with the caliphate, rivaling Ghandi's co-operative movement, may cause trouble for the colonial government. ——————— A Swiss éhgineer named Durler has been appointed to direct the electrifi- cation of the state railways in Japan.
