Territory Has Shrunk in Generation, But Country Has Made Big Social Gains ,

in Turkey, kingpin of all peace

‘By EDWARD J. BYNG

With weakened Greece in the thr

stay of U. S.-organized peace in the Middle East. question of Turkey's inner stability is of direct interest. Although the Turkish domestic situation is by no means perfect, it is definitely stable and capable of great improvement, In addition, both the U. 8. A. and Britain are highly popular throughout the country. Only a generation ago, the Tur- -- wom —

kish. ‘empire stretched from the| Black Sea to Suez and the Persian | Gulf, and included Albania and | major portions of present-day Yugoslavia, aria and Greece, Since’ 1918 it has shrunk to a small segment of European territory flanking the Bosporus and the Dardanelles, and the still vast region | of Asia Minor. { While 19 million Turks have some | 900,000 square miles to live in, huge |

portions of the land are either rocky | or otherwise barren, Modern Turkey is a republic, with | its military hero, Gen, Ismet Inomu, | as president. As in the U, 8. A, the state and |

the church are separated-—some- |

thing unthinkable in other Mohammedan countries. chamber legislature. Turkey is a democracy, althoug eivil liberty at present is not as-un= trammelled as in the U. 8. A.

Needs Dollar Exchange Economically Turkey, while incompargbly better off than Greece, is greatly handicapped by a lack of both consumer goods and dollar exchange. For political reasons, the loan just authorized for Turkey by the U. 8. congress is going to be used to bolster the country’s military machine. The international situation forces the Turks to keep 750,000 young men In arms instead of employing them in the country's economy. Therefore, unless further American credits wre forthcoming, over-optimism as to an early upswing in Turkish trade and finances is unwarranted. On the other hand, social trouble of a serious nature is extremely unlikely to occur, and a civil war on
