Dearborn Independent; MIGRATIONS A curious kind of reasoning Results from the treaty The sentimental portion of the western world gjrined that the Turk should have won the concession of his right tp come back to Europe. And .that same element sorrows that the treaty should require Turks in Greece to quit their acquired homes and go back to Turkey, while Greeks in Turkey are ordered to give them their new homes and go back to Greece. .In America, certain persons thave likened the sufferings of evicted Greeks and evicted Turks 'to those of the Acadians, cherished in the immortal verse of Longfellow's Evangeline., These sentimental individuals were doubtless the first to applaud the decree of a few years ago that the Turk must leave "Europe. They saw nothing sad in the banishment of the Turkish people from a land they had called their home for four centuries, .yet they are deeply moved over the eviction of a comparatively few traders who have exploited the dwellers of a distant land for a few years. The Turks who must leave Greece and the Greeks who must leave Turkey are, for the most part, shrewd traders who have wandered far afield in an' effort to barter goods.

They were wagering their smartness against the lack of sophistication of the type of people who live their lives out in their homeland. It was an unequal battle of and the traders had all the advantage. Neither Turks nor Greeks affected by the eviction terms of the treaty are the highest types of their races. They are rather the parasitic exceptions who seek to gain their livelihood out of the earnings of others. Hardships in individual cases will doubt less result from the treaty terms. But more lasting harm might result from a different decision. sanne. A Scene From Reginald Barker Production Hearts Aflame COLUMBIA AS A MAY BE BROUGHT.!
