United States Should
Not Declare War
on Turkey, Is Said

Boston, Nov. 3n.-The Turks are
heartily tired OF German rule, and
declaration of war by the United
States against Turkey now would be
playing into the hands of the Berlin
officials, in the opinion of DR.. William
E. Strong editorial secretary OF the
foreign missions.
"Why the United States should de-
clare wal upon either Turkey Or Bull
garia is inc0mprehensible to those
who know anything Of the internal
situation Of those two countries" said
a statement ISSUED by DR.. Strong to-
night. "Roth Of the countries are as
much under the control of Germany
as are Belgium and Poland.
Compared to Delgium
who would suggest" he continued,
that we should declare war against
Belgium because belgium subjects are
working for Germany and Belgium is
supply ng Germany with foodstuffs
and other war equipment? Those
Who have come out Of Turkey during
the last few months give only one
testimony, and that is to the effect
that Turkey is heartily tired of the
domination Of Germany. Even the
leaders recognize that they went into
that war not for any possible gain to
Turkey, but with every opportunity
of losing everything.
"lf war Should he declared on Tur-
key and Bulgaria what could the
United States do? 1t would be cruel
in the extreme to make an attack up
Oh people who hate the alliance with
Germany with perfect hatred. and
If thev had the power to dc 50. a de-
clarat on Of war today on the part of
the United States would lead to a
new attack under German direction
upon the non-mcslem population of
Turkey. whose elimination from ASH,
minor is enc of the manifest police
OF Germany.
/ Would lmperiI u. s. Agents
Ono can hardly think of the PEG.
pie Of the United States favoring any
step which could, so far as we can
see, lead to nothing that would abbre.
waite this war. but would open the
door for new and startling atrocities
under the leadership of Belgium. to
SAY nothing OF imnerilinc American
agents in both countries. The hostil-
ity toward GERMANY is tendency to
be encouraged rather than d'scour-
agei
''The sending OF Eernstorff to Con-
stant NOBLE was with the idea of turn
ing Turkey against the United States.

New Situation Since
Enemy's Massed Attack

With the British Army in France,
Dec. 4.-The Germans up to noon to-
day had not renewed their attempt of
yesterday to smash the British front
south of Marcoing, but it seems i'm
probable that the enemy will allow
matters to remain as they now are.
The situation, therefore is still one
that cannot be dismissed lightly, in
view Of the heavy concentration OF
guns and troops which Won linden.
burg has brought to bear on this line
After Bigger Stakes
There has been no change in the re-
spective positions of the opposing
forces since last night Exhaustion and
the necessity of recognizing his de.
pleted ranks have undoubtedly forced
the enemy to pause for breathing
spell.
The ground won by the Germans
yesterday could in no way compensate
for the shambles caused by Won Hin
denburg's disregard for the lives OF
his men. But it must be borne in
mind that he was playing for vastly
bigger stakes than have yet been won.
In his latest attacks there we're I'M
doubtedly tremendous efforts to break
through, with great possibilities of a
drive out into the open such as he en-
g:neered in Italy.
Situation Easier
The situation today was much cas-
Ter for the British. Yesterday was ad-
mlttedly a rather anxious one, but
abundant reinforcements arrived. The
checking Of the Germans incessant
massed attacks was due only to the
gallantry of the British soldiers, who
did not yield before fierce assaults by
greatly superior numbers: ~ "a.
In their }stupendous efforts against
La Vaquerie the Germans swept for
ward in dense waves with absolutely
10 cOlcealment and were slaughtered
During the afternoon they delivered a
very heavy attack also west of Mas
nieres and succeeded in smashinS
through the British line, but an i'm
nlediate cOunter-attack forced them ,v
fall back.
The open fighting which has devel.
oped along the new battle front has
created an entirely new situation.
which holds out many possibilities
and now. more than ever. involves the
question of generalship which may de
eide the issue.
