The decreasing birthrate In Turkey, and the gaps In the population brought about by the war, are cuusing serious alarm. In some villages, It Is said, there have been virtually no children for several years. As a remedy It has been proposed to bring back to the homeland some of the thousands of refugees who are now In Russia and the Balkans. The transfer of a few hundred thousand Moslems into Anatolia from Russia, It Is urgued, would be extremely useful to Turkey, and Russia would never miss them. Modern Girls Bad Tempered.
