Wednesday, May 16, 1923. THE LA GRANDE EVENING OBSERVER ' PAGE SEVEN ANGORA MAY BECOME TURK ANGORA, May 17. it Admiral Colby M. Cheater and his American associates undertake to convert An- flora into a modem capital on the ines of Washington, they probably will find sufficient work to occupy them for many years. Under the terms of the economic concessions re cently granted to the Americans, An gora is to have broad greets, high buildings, wide public squares, parks end spacious ralroad terminals, just like any modern American city. This will involve, the demolition of the thousands of squatty brick and mud buildings, the narrow, winding, dark streets and the inadequate sanitary system which have made lAngora one of the most primitive cities in the world. If Angora is rebuilt it may mean the abandonment of Constantinople as the capital of Turkey. Many Turks favor the retention of Angcra as the seat of government because of its military and naval invulner ability. ' It is 215 miles southeast of Con stantinople; free from attack by hos tile armies or navies entering the Dardenclles. The Greek army esuqyel to reach Angora 1n'li)21 with disas trous results. The surrounding coun try is mountainous with few rail roads or highways. One of the pur poses of the new contracts let to the Americans is to bring Angora within easier reach of the Sea of Mudnuiu, and the Black and Mediterranean Seas. The most Inspiring building in An-. gora, among an. array of structures that would scarcely do credit to the most backward of American minin;; villages, is the crtravagantly-named Grand National Asosembly. It is a dilapidated two-story affair that was once a -club. Only constant repair has kept it from falling to pieces. Yet it was this modest edifice th-it the new and greater Turkey was born and fostered. It was from this toy citadel that the Keinalists held the whole world at bay last year. The membership of the assembly presents an extraordinary picture of turbancd heads, kalpaks, fezes, and European and Moslem' dress. There are a large number of priests in the assembly, and their long flowing robes of -black and their colorful turbans give a picturesque touch to thB otherwise drab .gathering of 300 or niore deputies. Mustupha Kcmal has given An gora much of its importance. He liv ed here many years and was the lead ing Bpirit in the foundation cf the Nationalists movement which has re united thn Turks. He realizes that, to keep up with the west, much of western civilization must be adopted. "Education, to ibe for the good of the nation," . says the Nationalist leader, "must be based upon the sys tems of the. west. Above all, both men and women have got to be per fectly free. I do not want to thicken the veils of the women, nor have I any sympathy with-.'the prevalent practice of Moslem' women living in isolaticn. By this time next year every woman shall mix freely with men, and go about with her face unveiled." . - Capital Romances James Wise, do 89.85 John Lindsay, do 24.95 Fred Hagey, Jr., do i 11.96 Fred Hagey, do 47.88 7.48 14.35 9.1)0 The nROffomcnt of "Mite.'

Owing to the failure of the. parks department to make uny provision for roads and to grunt concessions for accommodations In Mount Mc Kinley National purk, the Aiuska road commission will be compelled to supply whatever facilities ure avuiktltle for touiisls during the coming season, it has been un-t nounced here. These will be In the" form of udditlonut tents along the summit pack trail between iMcKlu Icy station on the Alusku rulll'oad und Kuntishua. Application .was mude. recently by Woodbury Abbey, who surveyed the boundaries of the purk, for a hotel concession, but this was refused, ow ing to luck of rouds within thu park. The condition brings to light somo of tile problems confronting Colonel J. G. sstcose lu operating the Alaska rullroad. As president of the Alaska road commission, Colonel Hleese has had the Kuntishnu to serve the min ing needs of this great leud-sllver-copper district. It was hoped the parks department would be in u con dition this season to have the road commission constrtict park roads 111 connection with these wur depart ment activities, but congress deleted tho appropriation of USe.OUO from the budget and McKlhley park la pructicully as primitive us It was In the beginning, suvo for the trulls nc cessury In making the survey and crossing the park to the western In terior. Hpeuking of the purk Colonel Steese said all that could be done was for the Alusku roud commission to es tablish additional tents in connection with Its work and-allow those tour ing the park to utilize these accom modations. "I believe when the Uoorklyn Eagle party urrivos to dedicate the purk," Colonel Slcese said, "its mem bers will grasp the full Importance of the mutter und be able to assist In getting congress to appropriate the necessary funds for the roads. The only transportation available In the park will he by puck train and as vi f no large outfits have been or ganized to care for tourist travel. It ttil! be possible for tourists In num beis to hare the use of sleeping curs In .MeKlnlfy station.
