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.

Lost Hunter
Search Slated
Search for Ed Young, 42-year-old
Macdoel farmer lost on Whaleback
mountain near Mt. Shasta since Oc
tober 15, will begin again as soon as
weather permits, Walter Carruthers,
Young's father-in-law, said Wednesday.
Right now the mountain is deep
with snow. Much of the mountain
area was combed by search parties
last fall after Young disappeared
while on a deer hunting trip, but
much rough terrain is yet to be
covered in the search for the body.
! Carruthers said.
; Young was on a hunting trip with
Olin Green, ML Hebron, when they
! became separated and Young dis
! appeared.
' Speculation then was that he had
fallen into a crevice and been in
j Jured, but many persons familiar
(with the Whaleback hunted for
him without success. Carruthers
: said that no trace was ever found,
i Young's 300 Savage rifle was not lo
cated nor was any of his equipment
