war by the Sheik-ul-lslam, head OF

from Constantinople today.
Cabling from Bucharest under a
later date, Morgenthau informed the
department that he learned through

and all her allies. The Servian gov
eminent has made reply 10 the proc
lamation by declaring that all treaties
between her and Turkey have ceased

Morgenthau did not express any
alarm for the safety OF Americans in
Turkey. The state department feels
no great anxiety for them as assur-
ances have repeatedly been given by
the Turkish government that Ameri-
