GERMANY'S THREAT
 TO BE REALIZED
CONSTRUCTION OF RAILROADS WAS TO FACILLITATE THE
 INVASION OF EGYPT

According to late reports, the Turko-German threat against Egypt will be carried into prac- tice. Recent announcement that q railway line was being constructed from Damascus to the Egyptian frontier has been verified. At the same time of the announcement, it was said to be completed towithin fifteen miles of Sinai. This railway with its double tracks is consid cred by military men to permit a concentration of 500,000 men in one month together with the necessary supplies at the Egyptian frontier.
 About 300,000 Ottoman troops, commanded and drilled by German officers, already have been con centrated between Alexandretta, Aleppo and Hons, it is stated.
 Turko- German emissaries are said to be urging the Senussi to attack Egypt from the west, while an attempt also is being made to induce the Abyssinains to march into Sudan. German officers are reported to be acting as propagan- dists, organizers and military in- structors.
 The Rome newspapers aks if. after the lesson of the Balkans, the entente powers are going to allow themselves to be surprised in Egypt.
