Open 11 a. m. to midnite Specializing in Merchant Lunches Under the Management of MAUDE WOLCOTT Well Known for Fine Food Turkish Life Outlined By Ismet Sanli At the Knife and Fork elub last night. Miss Ismet Sanli, Turkish, born but I'. S. educated and ai modern-American In speech and appearanee aa bubble gum, brought to her hearers a picture of present day Turkey so vivid and under atandable as to lift them out of the fog that normally follow- a talk on international affairs. In this mood of unexpected and genuine Interest, they fired questions at her for a half hour earthy, grass - roots questions differing sharply from the stilied queries that are the usual offering at such times. Who are these modern Turks? Well tslie said) they are descend ants of the Ottoman Turks who over-ran and more or less wrecked mid-Europe some eight centuries ago. Id the first World War, the doddering Ottoman empire got into the ruckus on the wrong side. In the ensuing settlement, Turkey lost her shirt. This so impressed the Turkish people that they turned 'n and fought a revolutionary war that upset the ancient Ottoman empire and then, under the Inspired lead ership of Mustapha Kemal, they founded the Turkish republic. I Under the new republic, with Kemal leading the way, they made themselves completely over. The men quit wearing fezzes. The wom en threw away their veils. These were symbols. They went after the substance of modern progress. From 8o per cent illiteracy, they have struggled up to half literacy. They ! have developed a school system that reaches from the third grade to I post-graduate university courses, i It's all free. To get it, she added. they have taxed themselves until i the skin slips at tax-paying time, i But, she said, they think it's worth what it costs. Why is Turkey important to j Americans? She answered tnat one, too. Turkey, she said, stands at the strategic straits connecting the I Mediterranean and the Black seas, and holds Russia back. She holds Russia back because she has been smart. In her dealings with Russia, Turkey has been so fair and so far seeing that she has given Moscow no excuse to wade in and brush lit tle Turkey aside from her legal post as guardian of tba Dardanelles. Throughout the Balkans and Poland and the Baltic states, she explained, Moscow has been able to establish alibis in advance for everything she has done. So wise, she said, has been the diplomacy of the Turkish republic that at the Dardanelles, Russia has been de nied an excuse for expansion and without an excuse the Moscow communists haven't had the nerve to start something. So, she told her hearers, Russian expansion Into the Middle East has been checked so far. That, she concluded, ought to be enough to interest Americans in present-day Turkey, Miss Sanli spent considerable time in telling bow she never can be picked out in this country as a Turk. tShe certainly doesn't look like the pictures of Turks that were carried in the schoolbooks of a gen eration ago.) "How shrJuld I look?" she said she asked one skeptic. "Well," he answered, "did you ever see a package of Fatima cig arettes?" She giggled charmingly. "I guess that answers what you are all thinking," she said. Comes Home f : vv.., 1 -A Pvt. William V. Bedford. V.
