!. s. WAITS FOR
TURKEYS REPLY
President Wilson is Determined
to A7Od Wal.
An APOLOGY IS EXPECTED
State Department Will Pursue
"WatchfuI Waiting" Policy With OF
Aanaan GnNernment.

State Department Will Pursue
~watchfuI Waiting" Policy With OF
toman Government.
Washington, Nov. 20.-The presf
dent is determined that the Onlteo
States shall not become involved In
war with Turkey.
If the Turkish officers acted Win
out the authority of the Ottoman gov
ernment in firing on the launch OF the
cruiser Tennessee, in Smyrna harpor,
or if the act were justified by naval
procedure in a closed pert, 1t Is con
fidentlv believed .he Ottoman govern
ment will render an apology Tor the
Smyrna affair.
The American administration, II
was said at the state department, Will
pursue a "watchful waiting" policy
with Turkey, as it did with Mexico.
Although the navy department con-
tinued every effort to get a further
report of the incident, nothing has
vet been heard from Captain Benton
C. Decker, in command of the Tennes'
see, or from American Ambassador
Morgenthau, in Constantinople.
AS nearly a week was taken In get
ting the last message through to the
state department from the ambassa'
dor, little information is expected
from him before Captain Decker Is
heard from.
Secretary Daniels said he would not
decide on whether the North Caro-
lima and Tennessee would remain IN
Turkish waters, until all of the facts
are known. Some naval Officers have
urged that the cruisers be Withdrawn.
Oficials believe, however, that mis-.
sionary interests, because OF which
the cruisers were sent to Turkish
waters, might insist that the vessels
be retained.
One strong ray of hope for the
state department was that the regular
and constituted Turkish officials may
have left Smyrna, and that In cons.
uuence the shots fired at the Ameri-
can flag were the work of irrespons-.
BILE fanatics.
The commanders of the Tennessee
and her sister ships, the North Caro-
lima, in nearby waters. have been In
structed to make no move that might
embarrass the Washington govern
ment.
Behind the report of the action OF
the garrison at Smyrna the state de-
partment has received information t.
the effect that "holy war" is brew
ing In Turkey, and that the least
overt action might bring this govern
ment into the war.
Protection and friendship for Amer
lean citizens In Turkey frequently
have been pledged by the Porte, but
since that time the United States has
assumed charge of diplomatic inter.
ests OF the allies with whom Turkey
q now at war, resulting in conditions
marked by delicate responsibility.

KAISER MAY ORDER APOLOGY

Germany Expected to Compel Turkey
70 Make Amends to United States.
London, Nov. 20.-The Daily News,
commenting on the Tennessee incl
dent, says:
"The proceedings of the Turkish
authorities appear to be of a quite
inexplicable imbecility. Only one thing
Is clear, and that is that her new
ally Is already beginning to cost Ger
many a great deal more than she Is
worth.
PRESUMABLY German influence Will
be brought to bear promptly to COM
pei Turkey to apologize for her out
rageous behavior. Even so, the Incl
dent is certain to attract great deal
more attention. in a country extra
ordinarily jealous of its citizens'
rights, like the United States, than
al the cajoleries of any number of
German diplomats put together"
