NEW YORK, Dec. 1.-THE in
terest created by the Falkland
naval battle, and by the German
victories In Poland, distraets a
tentlon from a British success In
Asia Minor, which will have far
reaching consequences after the
war is over. Only brief mention
has been made or the capture or
the Turkish town OF Kurna by
Indian troops operating under the
command OF English officers. Yet,
this unnoticed success gives TO
Great Britain control Of the head
OF the Persian gulf. one OF the
few colonial prizes not annexed
by the European powers.
Germany, Russia and England
have all been eager for$years to
obtain from Turkey this choice
territory which was the most
hourishing part of the ancient
Babylonian empire, where Nieb-
uchadnezzar reigned $500 years
ago. Antiquarian interest. how
ever. has not created internation-
al rivalries for possession OF the
Persian CULTS northern literal.
Trade interests and military
strategic reasons give TO Baby.
lonia It's modern value.
Primarily. the same cause that
sent Columbus across the Allan.
tic ocean. has urged England.
Germany and Russia 10 extend
their influences about the Persian
gulf. The desire 10 shorten the
route TO India end to the east In
general is the impelling motive.
While trade expansion Is the DOM
inant cause. the military defense
OF India gives all additional i'm
petus to British efforts.

THE OLD WORLD WAR
FROM DAY TO DAY

Germany is now constructing a
railroad through Asia Minor to
the Persian gulf by means OF
which German traders eventually
expect to dominate eastern COM
fherce. Now, however, the term
inal mileage of the line is at the
Persian gulf and will have to
pass through British territory, for
England will undoubtedly insist
upon attaining southern Babylonia
IL the allies are successful at the
end of the war. The most import
ant part, therefore, OF this new
trade route to the east now seems
destined TO become British
At the present, the success OF
Englands indian troops in Baby
lonia Is the most important re-
suit of Turkeys entrance into the
war. In fact, the future value OF
the victory. after the war ends, Is
second only to what would accrue
from the capture OF Constanti-
nopIe. The cheapness OF the con-
quest Is wholly out OF proportion
TO the result. The entire British
casualties were one English off,
Ger killed. and three wounded,
and 40 Indians killed and 100
wounded. In exchange for these
losses England receives the most
valuable territorial prize the war
can give TO her. The entire dis
trict England has occupied is not
as large as Connecticut, but II is
one Of the few spots on the, globe
Englishmen want to round of
their empire.
