T. Ganna. way's discussion at the University chapel program last Tuesday. Mr. Gannaway is the superintendent of the Carolina Orphan Home. Mr. Gannaway stated that the greatest donation Turkey has given to this present conflict is her two million highly trained ,guerilla forces. These, he said, are probably the finest soldiers the world has ever seen. After the last world war, Turkey was in a state of total desperation, the speaker said. There was poverty everywhere, there was no national unity, and no thought of a republic. But over numerous obstacles, a band of Turks uider their strong leader, known as the "father of the Turks", rebelled; marched into the interior of Turkey and set up a re public. The Turkish Republic was 20 years old in 1942. Mr. Gannawav said that a number of the Moslem traditions were done away with and a system of educa tion, influenced by the western civil ization, was established. At first, the education was carried on by word of mouth, then by teachers. The Turks wer - suspicious, but the faith in the new government stuck. The speaker served for 1 years for the relief work in the Near East. He served as a captain in the Turk ish army under an American com mlSsion.
