Alarm has been created in Turkish offcial and political circles by the results of the new census of the population, which showed that the Ottomans of Turkish stock numbered no more than 4,000,000, while the ravages wrought in the ranks of the non-Turkish races by war, masacris,
and deportations were even greater. Steps have been promptly taken to induce large bodies of Russian Moslems to settle in Asia Minor. But other measures for the purpose of refilling the gaps in the Mosleur ranks are being submitted to the new Aagora Asembly.

Cue the re.establishment of polygamy, abrogated by the last Assembly in 1922. on th ground that the female population in Turkey now vastly exceed the maler Simultaneously, one of his colleagues, Salih Effendi, is asking the Assembly to enact, (1) compulsory marriage for all males who have attained the age of 23. and (2) that married couples do present the State with at least one child every three years up to certain age-limite
The author of these proposals declares that by such means the population of Turkey could be raised to between
