SHALL THE LEAGUE
CONTROL STRAITS
(Contlnved from page one)
by an iron hand under the blight of
Bolshevism.”
The closing of the fourth week of
the conference has been marked by a
distinct disposition on the part of the
Turks to accept Occidental ideas and
reject Russian policies, particularly as
regards the straits problem. This was
due In a considerable measure to the
tact and wisdom shown by Ambassa
dor Child, M. Barrere and Lord Cur-
zon, who have tried to make the Turk
ish leaders see that they could trust
the Occident.
The American delegation Is keeping
in the background, carefully avoiding
any attempt to thrust American pol'
on Europe and restricting its el
forts to statements of the position of
the United States as subjects arise In
which the United States is Justifiably
interested. But as the conference pro
gresses there are Indications that
Turkish leaders are leaning more and
more on America for guidance, bellev-

The permanent location
Turkish capital at Angora will be a
blow to the United States and other
nations which have fine embassies in
Pera. The foreign section of Constn-

Angora for the foreign diplomats,
customed to the brilliancy which the
sultan’s court and the navies of many
nations imparted to diplomatic actlvi-

J Angora is a dreary Interior Turkish

'And it is from tho woman’s angle
that I want to plead for these political
