MORGAN. Boro Supreme Court Asked To Suit in Turkey The Brooklyn Supreme Court was today asked to reach its long arm into Smyrna, Turkey, for the purpose of compelling Charles Missir, an American citizen, originally a Turk, to deed valuable properties in that city, consisting of the leading theater and a valuable ice manufacturing plant over to the Smyrna Theater Company and the American Oriental Ice Manufacturing Company, respectively. These corporations, which have New York charters, gave Missir a trust deed for the possession and operation of the theater and the ice plant. A number of Americans are interested in these co corporations, and they now seek to oust Missir as the resident manager and director, to compel him to deed the properties to his successor, who has already been named, and to give and accounting of the income and PLAN NEW RAILROAD FOR ANATOLIAN COMMERCE By CLARENCE K. STREIT.

(By Cable to The Brooklyn Eagle and Philadelphia Public Ledger; Copyright, 1921.) Samsun, Asiatic Turkey, Feb. 4 (via Paris, Feb. 7)-Plans for constructing a railway in the spring from Samsun to Sivas, a distance of 280 miles, were considered here yesterday at a of local merchants with the Provincial Governor. The railroad is to be under national control, but hope is expressed that capital will become interested and furnish the necessary material. French company had the concession before the war and completed the grade and tunnels, forty miles from Samsun, but no steel was laid.

A representative of this company, who arrived here a. few weeks ago to look after its interests, was politely ushered out of the country. The railroad is much needed, as Samsun is the Black Sea terminus for caravan routes from the interior of Anatolia and does a heavy commerce. with only camels and wagons for transportation. DUNN GETS PERMIT DESPITE PROTESTS Anti-Socialist Wins Permission for High School Meeting.

Despite protests, Russell J. Dunn, prominent anti-Socialist, will preside at the meeting in the Bay Ridge High School tonight under the auspices of Common Cause League, at which the Rev. John L. Belford will speak on Americanization. A to the Board of Education against issuing a permit to Dunn, who is president of the league, to call the meeting in the school building was made by Samuel Markowitz, who said that while he was assistant district attorney he had successfully prosecuted Dunn for disorderly conduct after Dunn had a speech in which he questioned the patriotism of the Jews.

Eugene C. Gibney, director of community centers, who received the protest, investigated the plans for the meeting and stated this morning that he found nothing in them which would justify him in refusing the permit. He said that the permit had been issued and that the meeting would, as far as he was concerned, be held. MRS. GOODWIN MAY BE NAMED DEPUTY Mrs.

Isabella Goodwin is at present filling the position abandoned by Ellen A. O'Grady at police headquarters in Manhattan. If Mayor Hylan follows his custom in making the uniformed members of the force administrative executives in the civilian ranks, Mrs. Goodwin will become Fifth Deputy Commisioner. Mrs.

Goodwin lives on the Heights and is the only first grade detective among the women She has had much experience in police work and her record would indicate that she is successful as a detective and sufficiently diplomatic to keep out of hot water. It is believed that she would welcome the appointment, but she would have to abandon the possibilities of pension, it is said, and would be forced to sever her connection with the uniformed force. At present she is filling the bill as far as the work of the Fifth Deputy is concerned. She is in charge of the policewomen and takes care of the Women's welfare in the city. The Mayor has about 200 applications for the place, from women who are prominent in all sorts of civic, ethical and sociologic organizations.

V. Clarke, M. MALLON Juanita Democratic Club--A special meeting of the Juanita Democratic Club will be held at the clubhouse, 271 Adelphi on Tuesday evening, at 8 o'clock, to take suitable action on the death of our late member and former President JOHN P. MALLON. CHARLES J.

HEALY, President. George D. Wilson, Secretary, WHITE--The directors of the Long Island Historical Society record with ound regret and a sense of irreparable loss the death of their aSSOdate, ALFRED T. WHITE, who was accidentally drowned while skating on Forest Lake, near Central Valley, N. on the 29th of January, 1901.

Mr. White had been a member of the Society since its foundation and a director for twenty-three years. No member or officer was ever more continuously or loyally devoted to its welfare. His interest in the condi-! tion, work and prosperity of the So1 ciety never flagged, and he was accustomed to aid it from time to time by gifts of books and money, of which he would permit 1.0 public acknowledgment. Sage and conservative in counsel, hia advice concerring the administration of the affais of the Society was as helpful as his benefactions were generous.

In brief, he manifested here the same qualities of mind and heart which made him a man of mark in the community, respected, admired and beloved one whose death has brought a sense of personal loss to all classes and conditions of men to whom he was known. WILLARD BARTLETT Pres. Richards Mott Cahoone, Acting Sec. profits that he received while in control. The attorney for the corporations appeared before Justice Kelby in Special Term and declared that Missir was served with the papers while was in New York a short time ago, and that inasmuch as he is an American citizen this court has Jurisdiction over him.

The aid of the Brooklyn Supreme Court was invoked because there are no Turkish courts at the present, and that although Turkey is the mandatory of Greece, there are no Greek courts yet established because of the muddled situation concerning the present occupant of the throne of Greece. Missir's attorneys argued that the court here has no power to control the disposition of real estate in Turkey. Justice Kelby asked the lawyers to supply him with official information as to the situation with respect to Turkey, and reserved decision, REPARATIONS BODY PILING UP CLAIMS AGAINST GERMANY Total May Be 100 Million Gold Marks Above Allied Premiers' Figures. (By Cable to The Brooklyn Eagle and Philadelphia Public Ledger; Copyright, 1921.) Paris, Feb. 7-Although the Allied Premiers took the Versailles Treaty into their own hands at the Paris Conference and agreed on an of 226,000,000,000 marks, to be paid in 42 years, the Reparations Commission still is feverishly at work to the same treaty, and was, indicated to the same treaty, and it was ndcaited today from the best sources that its estimate of war damages would be much more.

than 400,000,000,000 marks gold. This not only upward of 100,000,000 marks gold in excess of what the Germans now are asked to pay, but also, according to the Treaty, must be paid within 3 years. "Thus," it was explained to your correspondent by a French statesman, "if the Germans come to the London conference with any idea that they can negotiate a lower figure and plead poverty, we can only refer them to the figures of the Reparation Commission. They must pay 226,000,000,000 marks and percent tax, which is a better bargain than the Reparations Commission will offer them." Andrea Tardieu declared in the I Chamber in his interpellation of Premier Briand that the total sum, including export tax, would be only 310,000,000,000 marks. It is variously estimated that the damages of the German campaign in France alone could not be repaired under 000,000 francs gold.

But the Reparations Commission received further instructions. The Paris agreement and the huge commission, under Louis Dubois, is laboring daily at the Hotel Astoria, hav. ing scores of committee meetings, and its ramifications are extending all over Europe. It may not finish its work by May, as the treaty stipulates, for it must add up the estimate from every individual who lost property in the war as well as make an inventory of the economic wealth of Central Europe. But whatever the final sum decided upon by the commission, it undoubtedly would raise an indignant storm of protest in Berlin, in spite of the fact that the Germans would have the right to be heard before accepting it.

The Reichstag protest against the Paris settlement was not sincere, according to my informant. It is the opinion among some of the reparations officials that the Germans will yield if the Premiers "treat 'em rough and call their bluff" at London. But Germany's "can't pay" attitude was first. designed to influence the German people in the elections this month, and, secondly, a part of the general policy of Berlin to demoralize the Entente by delay on every decision. A French official said: "Germany is prepared to reject any proposition, no matter how generous is, and if the Entente lets them into London with an idea of concessions the Germans will cause more delay.

It must be absolutely a-take-it or a-leave-it proposiNon." GREEK PREMIER TO HEAD DELEGATION TO LONDAN Athens, Feb. 6 (By the Associated Press)-Delegates sent to the Near East Conference in London late this month will be headed by M. Kalogeropoulos, the new Premier, it was said here late today. M. Gounaris, Minister of War, will not go to London, it has been decided, in view of British opposition.

Venizelist newspapers of this city severely criticize M. Gounaris for his role in the ministerial crisis. George Baltazzis, Minister of Agriculture, will act as Premier while the conference in London is going on. London, Feb. 7-M.

Gounaris, whose break with former Premier Rhallis led to the ministerial crisis late last week, remains as Minister of War in the new Kalogeropoulos Cabinet, which took the oath of office yesterday, says an Athens dispatch to the Exchange Telegraph Company. TAKE WEALTH OUT OF U.S. Boston, Feb. 7-With a total of nearly $500,000 in their purses and $250,000 worth of jewels, 200 Russians, who arrived here seven years ago as poor immigrants, are about to return to their native land, and expect to spend the rest of their lives in ease. For several years the Russians have been employed in Lynn industrial plants, and their prosperity is the result of war-time wages, frugal living and thrift.

GROOM IS ARRESTED FOR STEALING BRIDE William McCabe, 35, of 152 South Elliott was held without bail for the Grand Jury by Magistrate Reynolds today on a charge of abduction preferred by Harry Pierce of 501 Vanderbilt the father of Dora Pierce, a 15-year-old school girl. According to the story of the father, which was corroborated by Dora, McCabe formerly lived with the family at the Vanderbilt ave. address. Last Monday, he was ordered from the house by the girl's mother and on Tuesday Dora disappeared. Efforts to locate her at P.

S. 11 failed and general alarm was sent out. It is an alleged that she met McCabe and went with him to the So. Elliott pl. address and remained there until Saturday afternoon, when they went to Hoboken and were married at 104 Bloomfield by the Rev.

Conrad Engelder, a Lutheran minister. McCabe They returned to Brooklyn and was arrested at his home by Detectives Campbell and Gray of the Grand ave. station. In court today, McCabe dmitted the charge and waived examination He was held without bail for the Grand Jury Mr. Pierce said that he would immediately start proceedings to annul the marriage.

SULTAN OF TURKEY IS SHORN OF POWER BY ASSEMBLY RULE Church Law Made Subject to That of State by Nationalist Measure. By CLARENCE K. STREIT. (By Cable The Brooklyn Eagle and Phila delphia Publio Ledger; Copyright. 1921.) Samsun, Asiatic Turkey, Feb.

4 (via London, Feb. 7)--A summary of the law passed by the great national assembly at Angora, Jan. 19, establishing a new form of government for Turkey, was given your correspondent today by Ibrasim Edhem Bey, Goverernor-Mutessarif-of Samsun district. The greatest fundamental changes made are subjection of the Church law to that of the state, and administrative decentralization, with a large measure of local autonomy and full parliamentary sovereignty. Both the Sultanate and Caliphate are absolutely ignored in the report received here of the law, the wording of which, however, clearly indicates that these offices, if they continue to exist, are shorn of all power.

The provision in the statute bringing application of the holy law under the jurisdiction of the National Assembly is evidently a move by the Turks to remove the cause for the capitulation treaties with foreign powers which give them the right to settle in their Consular courts all legal cases in which their nationals in Turkey are concerned. Under the old system the Sultan as Caliph is head of the Church, but his religious powers are exercised through the Sheik Ul Islam, who is a member of the Cabinet, standing next to the Grand Vizier, and whose functions are more judicial than spiritual. The importance of his position is evident from the fact that all disputes among Ottoman subjects are settled on basis of the holy law, drawn from the Koran and the sayings of Mahomet, as interpreted by the Mullahs. To escape Moslem ecclesiastical law foreigners obtained the capitulations, the abolition of which the Kemalists demand as a peace condition. The date when the law goes into force is not given.

The Woman Voter Mrs. Mary A. Murray, president of the B. R. T.

Women's Equal Opportunity League, has sent to the Woman Citizen, the anti-suffrage organ, a challenge to a letter in that publication signed by Mrs. Frank A. Vanderlip, Miss Mary Garrett Hay and other delegates to the League of Women Voters' Convention, claiming that the welfare bills were initiated by the working women themselves. "I challenge that statement as says Mrs. Murray.

"I ask them to prove that any one of the their (at least) 2,300 women who lost jobs, paying weekly $70,000, through the enactment of the iniquitous Lockwood-Caulfield Transportation bill asked for that bill. The B. R. T. women spent $1,700 fighting that bill and only won an amendment.

I challenge their statement as false that the women elevator operators asked for the Sammis Elevator law." Among those who will attend the National Woman's Party Convention in Washington Feb. 16-18 are Mrs. R. C. Talbot-Perkins, Miss Rebecca Hourwich, Miss Lucy Burns and Dr.

Jennie V. H. Baker of Brooklyn, and a large delegation from Manhattan. At the unveiling of the statue to the suffrage pioneers Brooklyn will be represented by Mrs. William M.

Calder and Mrs. Grace Strachan Forsythe. On the last night of the convention a victory celebration will take place and pins presented to those who picketed for suffrage. Five Brooklynites will be thus honored: Miss Ada A. Craft, Mrs.

Henry Gibson, Miss Rebecca Hourwich, Miss N. H. Stein and Miss Elizabeth Stuyvesant. At the presentation of the statue to the nation Mrs. Warren G.

Harding and the wives of Cabinet members, Senators and Representatives will appear as members of the presentation committee. The prizes of $10 each offered by Mrs. George Notman, Brooklyn chairman for the League of Women Voters, for the largest number of new members in a given period, were contested for by Assembly district groups, made up of those nearly alike in strength, as follows: First group, 17th A. Mrs. Estelle Daniel Bush, leader; second group, 12th A.

Miss Clara Behrisch. leader; third group, 16th A. Mrs. Mary G. Ochsenreiter, leader; fourth group, 2d A.

Mrs. A. M. Johnson, leader. Mrs.

Notman has donated $100 for the use of the 34 election districts of Essex County, where she has a summer home, to circularize the women residents in the hope of securing new league members. Forty-two recruits have joined and more are promised. The class in Civil Service for women opened by the Women's Democratic Club at 590 Gates has held its second session and has a number of new applicants for membership. Women from all over Brooklyn are enrolled. Mrs.

Louise Harty, investi. gator at the Kings County Hospital, is instructor for welfare investigator and has planned a regular course for the class. The Junior League of the Columbus Republican Club of the 3d A. will hold its annual reception on Feb. 12, at the Imperial.

The 7th A. D. Women's Democratic Organization has established a series of young people's meetings, which are proving successful, and interesting the oung folks of the district in the Democratic party. Many of these will be able to vote in the fall. The costume dance Saturday night, given by the Women's Democratic Club of the 17th the clubhouse, 590 Gates drew a large crowd of gayly dressed members and friends, all competing in beauty or originality for the six prizes donated by the members.

Mrs. Minnie J. Abel, executive member, was hostess, assisted by Mrs. Ada Pritchard, who gave the first prize, a handbag, and Miss Mary Martin, Miss Lillian Basser, Mrs. Peter Hanson, Mrs.

Katherine McLaughlin, tin, Mrs. Helen Hanlon, Mrs. Nellie Mrs. Mary McGovern, Miss Rose MarCordez, Mrs. Susan Moen, Miss Sue Mulholland and others.

The regular meeting of the club is held tomorrow night. Mrs. Arthur L. Livermore, who has resigned from the League of Women Voters, says that her resignation was sent in long before the Governor's speech at Albany, and for the reason that she does not approve of the polities of the League and can no longer support it. A number, of Brooklyn women are joining the new National Republicn Women's Club, with headquarters in Manhattan, among them Mrs.

Firm Demolished by Second Outrage--No One Injured. Mexico City, Feb. 7-Police authorities and government secret service agents were engaged today in collecting evidence which might lead to the arrest men who bombed the residence of the Archbishop of Mexico and the building occupied by Juergens an American firm, this city, yesterday morning. Four men are under arrest, but it is known several others were implicated in the two crimes. The residence of the Archbishop was badly damaged, but the Juergens building was virtually destroyed.

Its entire street frontage was wrecked and windows of houses across the street were blown in. The upper story of the factory, which is located in the residence section of the city, was occupied by the families of the owners, but no one was injured. Information gathered by the police would seem to indicate that four men did the actual work of setting off both bombs. A small car was seen to approach the archepiscopal residence shortly before 4 o'clock yesterday morning. It stopped a moment while one man alighted, and then started off at a rapid pace, being well down the street when the explosion occurred.

What appeared to be the same car, 07 one of similar make, stopped in front of the Juergens factory an hour later, and then it hurried away in the direction of Guadalupe. Four men were said to have ridden in each car. Radical activity has been increasing in Mexico City recently, and newspapers here say that two Communist Congresses will be held this month, one in Mexico City and the other in Tampico. The newspapers also have reported the arrival during the week of a number of agitators, two of whom have been characterized by El Universal as being "delegates sent to Mexico by Nikolai Lenine to work among laborers in the interests of the Third Internationale of Moscow.

(By Cable to The Brooklyn Eagle and Philadelphia Public Ledger; Copyright, 1921.) London, Feb. 7-Investigation of a statement in the House of Commons by J. Jones, to the effect that the American Government does not live up to its promises regarding the refund. ing of the American head tax to aliens passing through the United States has just been completed by Consul General Skinner and shows that Mr. Jones's memory is declaration slightly at fault.

Mr. Jones's caused considerable stir, coming as it did at the time American charges for vises were being attacked as entirely too high, little digs at the United States being heard from less influential members of the Commons. Mr. Jones's charge, was that when he went to Canada via the United States he had to pay the equivalent of $8 for a head tax besides $10 for a vise. He said when he arrived at Montreal he applied in the usual way to the steamship company for the return of his $8, but instead got "only one-fourth what he had paid." At the request of Mr.

Skinner, the American Consul at Montreal obtained the steamship company's duplicate receipt for the full $8 refunded to Mr. Jones. The United States vise and head tax charges continually are causing comment in England. Recently a passenger from New Zealand to Vancouver via the United States complained of the charges in a newspaper article, saying the United States benefited nearly $5,000 from the passengers on his ship alone. Nearly half of that money would have been returnable had the passengers taken advantage of their privileges.
