TURKISH REFORMS ARE COMING ABOUT Liberal Views Toward Women One of Chiel Changes Angora, March 14 (By the Asso. clated Press)—One of the most laud. able alms of the tationalist regime in Turkey 18 to emancipate the Turkish women, who enjoy none of the free- dom or privileges accorded other women of the world. The foremost exponents of women's rights in Tur- key are Halllday Edibe Hanum, a graduate of the American Girls' col« lege at Constantinople and Mme Kemal Pasha, the pretty 19 year old bride of Mustapha Kemal Pasha. Two Sons in U, S, Halliday Edibé Hanum {s already known in the United States for her work as head of the Angora ministry of education and for her advocacy of more rational customs affecting Mos- lem women. Two of her sons are students at Ann Arbor, Mich. Dresses A La 1923 But Mme. Kemal Pasha is a new element in Turkish civic and political life. Angora got its first glimpse of the young reformer when she ro- turned from Smyrna with her bril- llant husband. Her sister Moham- medans lifted their sombre veils in amazement as they saw her step from the train dressed as a man with rid- ing breeches, high boots, spurs and a jaunty outing cap. It was evident that from the moment of her arrival she wished it to be emphasized that Mustapha Kemal Pasha, in his cam- paign for the emancipation of Turk- ish women, can count wWpen the full and active support of his wife, * It is ndt lkely that Turkish women will discard their black skirts and shawls and their impenetrable veils for the unconventional masculine at- tire of Mme. Kemal, but it is certain that her advent will modify or great- ly curtail the restrictions and obse- lete customs prescribed for the wom- en of Turkey by Mahomet. Mme. Kemal insists that the rules of con- duct and dress prescribed by the stern founder of the Mohammedan faith centuries ago are not tenable today. Were Kept in Scclusion Before the inception of the nation- allst movement, Turkish women were kept in the closest seclusion and were forbidden by their men to visit friends, dance or appear in publie. Their literature consisted of a cook book and a Koran. If they ever glanced at a man in public they were roundly chastized by their husbands. The severest order of nuns could not have led more restrained lives. But with the growth of the new Turkey all this is changing. Turk- ish women gradually are being re- leased from their domestic bondage and now and then are getting a glimpse of real life. They now appear on the streets and in places of enter- tainment. The modern Moslem woman insists that her husband shall have oniy one wife instead of three or four as for- merly. RUSSIA T0 pAR_TIEiPATE Will Take Part in International Con- ference at Geneva at Conclusion of the Panaman Assemblage. Moscow, March 14.—(By Associat- ed Press.)—The ‘foreign office an- nounces that Russia will participate in_ the international conference to be held at Geneva at the end of the Pan- aman conference.
