KURDS HOLDERS " OF FIGHT RECORD Have Been at War Since History Began — Washington, D. ¢, April 6.—The Kurds are on the war path in their homeland about the headwaters of the Tigris and Enphrates That statement stands for today; but it might bear the date of al-| most any century of the last 30 or 85 and still be correct, according to bulletin from the Washington, ., headquarters of the National | jeographic Have Fought “The Kurds would awarded the fighting record of the world by jury after a little delving into hl tory,” says the bulletin, “The days ssyrian power in peem pretty far back beginnings of listory Rec that empire show that time again its soldiers were sent into the rough country around the head- waters of the great rivers to subdue the mountaineers—ancestors of the | Kurds—who harr Assyria's out-| lying eettlements, These mountaineers fought the Arme when the latter cé between 600 and 1,000 B. C. “When Xenophon retreated from Asla Minor in 401 B. C. the Kurds (then called the Carduchl) attacked his 10,000 Greeks, rolling great atones down on them from cliffs and mountains. They fought continu- ally against the Bagdad Caliphs. $ince the Turks rose to power in Asia Minor the Kurds have fought them repeatedly; in fact, the Turks have never established any con- siderabls measure of control over thess flerce, freedom-loving high- Janders. » “Since the great wur the Turo- pean territory of Turkey has been negligible. The country has con- sisted almost solely of the big, fat peninsula Iying between the Black Sea on the north and the eastern | arm of the Mediterra n on the south, and an extension to the ecast about as brcad as the Asia Minor peninsula, reaching roughly half way from the Black Sea io the Caspian. The southern halt of this eastern, extension—the southeastern corner of post-war Turkey—is Kur- distan. The other half of the east- ern extension, immediately north of Kurd n, was once Turkish Ar- menia. Now that tens of thousands of the Armenian residents have been driven across the Russian border, while other tens of thousands have perishad, the region hardly deserves the old name. The Kurdish popu- lation was always high in Turkish Armenia; now it is proportionately much greater. The whole eastern end of present Turkey, constituting almost a third of the territory of the country, therefore, may roughly be considered the Kurdish sphere of influence. “Geographic and political and economic complications aplenty are found in this reglon. On the east Kurdistan touches Persia, and the prople for a considerable distance into that country are Iurds too. Indeed, Kurdish people inhabit tha entire Zagros mountain range which extend sfrom Turkey for 600 miles to the southeast, forming the bound- ary between Persia and Iraq, The may drawn by the European peace treaties shows the southern border of Kurdistan about 100 miles north of Mosul, which city is shown to be in Iraq.

Prof. Frank N, Freeman of the University of Chlcago, in announcing the results of more than 20 experi- ments in visual education, asserted there was po justification for un- usual enthuslasm for the movie as a medium of Instruction. He sald, however, that the motion plcture does have a value, but its use re-| as other subject matter in order to be made effective as teaching do- vices. “The practice of using motlon | pictures as a teaching ald is in its | fntancy, or in the same place that physical and chemical laboratoriés | were 25 years ago,” said Willam H. | Dudley, chief of the University of | Wisconsin bureau. “While visual | education should never and prob- | state bureaus |ably will not entirely supplant olhr-r‘ T —————e methods of instruetion, it will con« tinue to be used .more as a supple- ment to discussion and lecture. “Criticlem made agalnst their use because the movie lYesson merely offers dlverslon and amusement to the children Is ungrounded. when teachers will take the proper attl. tude.” .
