In Turkey's new economic vocabulary. Following; his personal investigation, of Anato lia's political and economic situation,' President Kemal proposes the crea tion of cooperative societies for each of Turkey's chief products. Fig raisers' in Symrna already are banded In a cooperative, and the Oazl ' would extend this system to tobacco, silk, cotton, mohair, dairy products' and other items on Turkey's export list. . , . .. Two great gains are expected for Turkey: first, peasant and manufac turer will gain through selling his products directly to the cooperative instead of through middle-men; and secondly. Turkish exports, whose re- , nown suffers at present from. lack of uniformity in quality, will be stand ardized through the control of the cooperatives. Kemal advocates the development of consumers' as well as of produc ers cooperatives. .At his orders, a model cooperative grocery store for government officials is to be opened near the presidential r residence In Tchan-Kaya, the Back Bay of An-, gora. - , - Summing It Up V .
