Berlin Cheered By
News of Strengthened
/ Turkish Defenses

BERLIN (via The Hague), March 20
Depression in Berlin Incidental to the
fall of Przemysl has been offset by the
official claims that the success OF tho
allied attack upon the Dardanellcs, Is
utterly impossible on the present basis.
The Berlin public learned for the FIRST
time today that the Turkish defenses At
the straits were strengthened tremend-
ously at the outbreak of the war, max
ing them almost impregnable. Con-
cealed in land batteries, armed with
German guns, and now manned by Ger
man artillerymen, were constructed.
These have been SO skillfully masked
that the allies aviators have been un-
able to locate them.
Thus far, according to reports, tho
Anglo French warshps have destroyed
only the old shore batteries. They have
not yet even attacked the real problem
that must be solved before the way Is
cleared to Constantinople. Md German
military experts are of the opinion that
only land attacks by huge forces. stimuli
taneous with determined lombard
nent by the Anglo French fleet, can
even bother tho hidden defenders of the
inland batteries.
Revelations of this unlocked for
strength of the Turks has greatly en-
thrBed the German public. In every
quaNter another defeat for the allies,
comparable to the sinking of the Eng-
lish and French battleships one week
ago today, is confidently awaited.
