Stories in STAMPS Modernizing The Turks "TURKEY was under the thumb of an aging despot when young Mustapha Kemal, an orphan ot Salonica, called upon the people to liberate themselves. He or ganized eccrct societies and was imprisoned, then exiled for hit efforts, He returned to his coun try in the face of death as an out law, and so aroused the people that the sultan sought to get rid ot him by sending him away in charge of expeditions that seemed hopeless. But each time Kemal returned victorious. The World War came and Ke mal, only 35, succeeded In turning back the invading allies at the Dardanelles. Then came Greece, aided by the former allies, and again Kemal turned back the enemy. The sultan had to flee, and Kemal, at 40, became presi dent of a new Turkey. He moved the capital to Angora, and instituted remarkable reforms in education and in the social life of his people.
