AMERICANS SAFE IN
SPITE OF HOLY WAR

American missionaries in Turkey will
not be harmed By the spread Of the
holy wa.'' which has been proclaimed
by Shiek Ill islam, head OF the Moham-
medsn church. and Twenty-Five other
Turkish priests high in Mosle.n church
councils.
The State Department has been adj
vised OF this by Ambassador MorSen-
than az Constantinople. who reported
that orders had voluntarily been issued
by the porte TO all Turkish officials, de-
Claring that American interests must be
carefully guarded. This was taken by
Acting Secretary of state Lansing as
another indication ot the intention on
the part OF Turkey TO show her good
feeling toward the United States since
the recent incident when a launch from
the battleShiD Tennessee was fired on
as Il was entering Smyrna Earbor.
Ambassador MorScnthau cabled fur
Their to the State Department that
American missionaries not only have
not been molested in any Of the dis
turbances in Turkey, but they are free
10 leave the country whenever they
please. Turkish officials. the amoassa-
dor said, have not even closed the
Christian schools maintained by Ameri-
As a further evidence of good faith
Morgenthau said, the Turkish govern
ment, in the case Of official dispatches
from the American embassy In Con-
stautinople to the State Department
has suspended operation of the ban or
code cablegrams. and has given orders
that mail between the Constantinopls
embassy and the consulates must no,
be inrerfered with.
The report from Ambassador Nor
genthau relieved officials here because
previous unofficial advices indicated
that the feeling Of the Mohammedans
nGainst Christians generally had beer
stirred to intense bitterness by reports
of alleged atrocities of the Russian eau
casian army, which has invaded Asiatlc
Turkey.
Ambassador Morgenthau is using
every effort to get British subjects out
of Turkey, not only In his capacity as
guardian Of Great Britain's interests in
Constantinople. but because of the dan
ger that Americans would be likely u
be mistaken for subjects of England
with which country Turkey is at war
II the hulk OF British subjects can ID
brought out of Turkey this danger tC
Americans will be removed.

Long Battle in Flanders

Russians and Germans. The EuA7Ian
official statement reports the rout of an
Austrian force on the southern eNtrem-
ity of the ioU-mile line. Field Marshal
yon HindennurS claims, however, that
co. lO prisoners have been captured IN

perate fighting is in progress
Military authorities here believe the
Germans situation is critical. Their
losses have undoubtedly been terrihc
and the Russian reports indicate that
the Germans have dug themselves in.
This may account for. the report Of Won
Hindenburg Of the hating of the Rus
