PREDICTS A Radio Al CHANGE IN
POLICY OF ALLIES AT DARDANELLES

Except for a few shots on the 2Sth
and the reported bombardment OF
Turkish positions near the Gulf Of
Saros by the Queen Elizabeth, there
has been no fighting recently in the
Dardanelles region.
1.-THE British public. which may have
taken too light-hearted a view of the
campaign against the gates of the
Turkish Empire, will have to exercise
patience and be prepared 10 accept
heavy losses with equanimity. Ow-
ing to the weather and other reasons
the Turks and Germans had time to
strengthen greatly the positions on
both sides of the straits. They have
fair supply Of artillery mounted in
excellent positions which the Allies
naval guns cannot always reach.
There is nothing TO show that the
absence of camaraderie between the
German and Turkish officers has dim
inished the fighting efficiency Of the
army to any considerable extent The
Turk shows at his best in defensive
operations and much hard fighting in
which the Allies must suffer heavily
may be expected before the Allies are
able to train their guns on the Porte"
