On the 106th anniversary of May 19, 1919, when the founder of the Republic of Turkey, the Great Leader Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, landed in Samsun and started our War of Independence, we remember with mercy and gratitude all our martyrs and veterans, especially Gazi Mustafa Kemal Atatürk and his comrades-in-arms.

THE VILLAGER THAT INSULTED ATATURK AND

 

                          ATATURK'S  TOLERANCE

 

The Tobacco Administration had banned the sale of cigarette paper; those who smoked smuggled tobacco and had money could obtain this paper from the black market; however, the majority of the people, especially the villagers, had to wrap their cigarettes with newspaper paper.

One day, while smoking a cigarette he had prepared in this way in a town or village coffeehouse, a citizen complained about the bad smell and directed all good and bad deeds to those in the first place, saying everything he could against Atatürk. Those in the coffeehouse kept a report. The matter was transferred to the government. Since being found guilty of crimes committed against the President was subject to his permission and approval, the relevant minister presented the matter to him and asked for permission to investigate. They presented the situation to Atatürk and said:

-We are taking it to court.

When he asked the reason, they replied:

-He insulted you, he swore at you Pasha.
Ataturk is a little upset (sad) about this situation and asks:

-What have I done to him?

Those who examine the document explain:

-The paper caught fire when he lit a cigarette he had rolled with newspaper.

A member of parliament told Atatürk this. Atatürk asks the deputy:

-Have you ever smoked a cigarette wrapped in newspaper?

The deputy replies:

-No sir.
-I smoked it when I was in Tripoli, I know. It's a terrible thing. The man is right, I would have done the same thing, there's no need for prosecution. Instead of taking him to court for this, make him smoke like a human being.
