So there is no occasion for surprise that France, supposedly the power behind the little entente of Roumania, Jugo Slavia and Czecho- Slovakia, suddenly appears as the secret ally of Turkey, the deadly enemy of the little entente. England, supposedly with her money on Greece in the Near East scramble for lands and resources, balks Greeces ambitious demand for Constantinople. A few weeks later, with Greece defeated and abject, England shows herself ready to go to war to prevent the Turks taking possession once more of the gateway to the east the Dardanelles. Italy, with her consuming hatred of France, lines up in support of France rather than her friend England, when it comes to the question of the freedom of the straits. In rough outline, the background of the present Near East crisis presents one of the most miserable pictures of the many the after-wa- r period has drawn. Turkey, supposedly more helpless than she proved to be, is carved and sliced. Nobody shrieks or protests, for the Turk has a bad name and few friends. Greece isnt satisfied with what was allotted her and proceeds to war on the Turk to get more. This is perfectly satisfactory to France and England both. The weaker both the Turks and Greeks become the less chance of there being a kick back to what both nations took out of Turkey. This small war goes on for a couple of years in more or less desultory fashion. Then the Turks come out on top in no small measure through French machinations combined with the stupidity of Constantine in officering the Greece army with favorites instead of fighting generals. but she does not object to a friendly Turk looking to France for guidance and support, being in Constantinople. Even the English had got to the g point of agreeing to the Turks back to Constantinople some months ago, before the Greek rout, as an inevitable eventuality. But on terms far different than the fighting Turks can exact now. As a result of the swift kaleido- scPic changes, England stands de termined to block Turkish control of the straits. France in the position she is in theglories mediator between the hated British and the despised Turk. England is weakened in her oppo-- ,. sition to the French stern policy toward Germany. She is weakened before the Mohammedan world. The question of Thrace can be settled. So can that of Constantinople. But the eventual guardianship of the Dardanelles, the key to the Orient: That is the chief , puzzle. It is the age-ol- d puzzle of the Near East. The massacre of the helpless Christian minorities may be stopped for the moment, but is certain to be renewed because Christian and Turk cannot live in peace together. What can be done about that?. Such is the problem of the Near East which once more has brought the world to the brink of war. com-ifa- JUST WOULDNT - - regime. BREEDING PLACE OF HATRED.
