Others, a speaker; Julia Hooben, toastmaster, and Marcella Mur- Turkish Nation Rushes Preparations for War Istanbul Determined Not to Enter Conflict Unless Necessary to Keep Independence Istanbul (Correspondence key is rushing preparations for tion not to enter armed conflict serve her independence. Once an empire which of Vienna and along the shores become a mere country--and wants to remain that.

A short sojourn in Turkey offers convincing evidence that Turks have not departed much from Mustapha Kemal Ataturk's conviction that the nation's best future lies in developing its own people and own resources rather than trying to reconstitute the Ottoman Empire. On other hand, most Turks believe the extension of the war to the Near East quite possible. In that case they believe Turkey's interests will be at stake and that she probably will have to fight to hold what she has. That is why she has cast her lot with Britain and France and why she is throwing all energy into making herself ready for combat. Baku May Be Prize If you talk to Turks about the possibility of a Turkish thrust, backed by Britain and France, to grab the rich Baku oilfields from Russia, they laugh.

But if you talk to Turks about the possibility of a German or Russian drive in the direction of Turkey, they mutter that Turkey is ready to fight and has powerful Allies. Britain and France may be dangling the Baku oilfields before Turkish eyes as a possible prize of war. If so, all Turkey has done so far, in the opinion of virtually all foreign observers, is to thank her Allies for their consideration and to think it over with increasing doubt. Turks admit they would like the oil. But they consider the Caucasus the most difficult terrain in the world for waging an offensive war.

And they say that no matter what may happen to Russia after this war, there will still be ten times as many Russians as Turkswhich means inviting a war with a more powerful neighbor a gener ation from now. Officials Are Vague Taking the Baku region also would mean violation of Ataturk's prime rule of keeping Turkey Turkish, for it would introduce a racial minority. While the population of the region is partly Turkic, such stock has become quite Russianized in more than a century of separation from the mother country. And there are many other elements there. Much as Turks talk about Turkey's readiness to fight in the event of any German or Russian drive in her direction, even officials are vague in defining what type of drive Turkey would consider a menace to her.

Some say she would consider an invasion of Rumania as a threat and act accordingly. Others say she would fight only if her own soil were trespassed. Under the Montreaux Treaty, to which Russia is a signatory, Turkey must permit the British and French fleets to pass through the Straits to fulfill their guarantees to any country which is the victim of an aggression, and in doing so, the treaty provides, Turkey is not committing an unfriendly act to any other power. Therefore, if Rumania should be attacked, Turkey could permit British and French warships to enter the Black Sea to help her without--theoretically--offending Russia. Most Turks think that in such case Turkey would open the Dardanelles to Allied warships, but they have doubts about Russia not being offended.

They regard this The Westmore Apartments looming ahead. A line of cars at the canopied entrance. Something familiar about that gray wait!" Helen staring at the license plate. "That's Mrs. Lane's!" "Huh, thousands of that model," shrugged Warren.

"But the license number! She happened to get her initials-KL. Oh, I don't want to meet her. I'm not going in!" "Not, eh? What's the idea?" "After inviting 1 us to that dinner-the way she ignored us! All evening just playing up to the Fosters!" "Did she? I don't remember. You're always imagining things." "I didn't imagine that! Oh, it was so pointed-" "You're too blamed sensitive," swishing his cane. "And why should we be over? Not SO darned important! Now the Nortons expect us--and we're going in!" "At least give me time to think! What to say---" "Not going to drag that up?" he scowled.

"Of course not! But I didn't expect to see her. And I- Dear, please! Let's walk around the block first." "Great guns, no need to dope out an act! Can't you just be natural and spontaneous? Always got to rehearse every speech and gesture- Oh, all right!" On past the military doorman. Turning the corner. A soft moist night. But for once Helen unresponsive to the glamorous scent of Spring.

Hurt memories of that dinner. Mrs. Lane hardly directing a remark to them. All evening fawning on the Fosters. For herself, content just to listen.

But to have Warren so flagrantly ignored! He hadn't seemed to mind. had--fiercely! A humiliating evening! Now to meet Mrs. Lane so soon- How could she be and natural? But try--really Not nurse friendly, her hurt resentment, as she so often did. "Got your act rehearsed?" he scoffed, when again they neared the entrance. "Ready to go in now?" "It won't be an act!" a contrite laugh.

"Maybe I did make too much of it." Through the foyer, and sped up to the Norton's apartment. The maid ushering them into the neoVictorian living room. Yes, Mrs. Lane there! But not her husband. In the multiple greetings, Helen hoped her constraint would not be noticed.

Norton opening a box of cigars. "Didn't get a thing done. The time-killers that barge into my office-" "My own fault my day was spoiled," admitted his wife. "I did such an awful thing!" "Now Laura, you've worried enough over that," crossing to a decantered tray. "But I can't forgive myself! I lunched with a friend," turning to Helen.

"And mentioned seeing her husband at the Cafe Noir. I thought entertaining ancient alibi?" grinned Warren. "Yes, Scotch for me." "He often does. But this time he'd told her he was working with the accountant! She was furious. She's always been jealous.

Now if anything take it SO seriously." reaching for an ash-tray. "If they split over that- be on the verge, anyway." "Yet I can understand how you feel!" Helen's warm sympathy. "I'm always saying the wrong thing -then anguishing over it afterwards!" "Yes, spend half your time regretting what you do the other half! You're an expert on remorse, Kitten." "I know! Even things that happened years kind of things? Tell me! Then 1 I may not feel so guilty over this." Urged on, Helen recalling one of her most poignant memories. A heavy bundle of books taken to the binder's. As she left the taxi, asking a poor boy to carry them up the three flights.

Having him wait while she changed a half dollar. But gluing on a label, the binder couldn't stop. When he finally produced the two quarters--the boy gone! If only she'd given him the fifty cents! Any amount rather than have him think she hadn't intended to tip him. Just a contemptible ruse to save a quarter! Even now her face hot at the memory. And once in Dresden, when so many were out of work and hungry- A shy, shabby boy with a camera.

His timid request to take her picture. Why had she refused? "I'm still haunted by his eyes! Such wistful, pleading eyes-" "That's how I feel turning down a panhandler!" confessed Mr. if they want the dime for booze--that beaten-dog look!" "Oh, that stray puppy!" thinking of another remorse. "I bought a cheap collar and leash to lend him. And when I left him at the S.

P. C. took the collar!" "What's so terrible about that? You could use it for another stray," "But he looked so much better with it! Oh, how many times I've Brith Abraham Plans Honor for Max Hollander Governor Lehman, who accepted honorary chairmanship of the testimonial dinner committee to honor Max L.
