LONDON, September 21.-One effect
of Gen. Allenby's brilliant coup in
Palestine has been to minimize the
moral effect and neutralize the stra-
tegic consequences of the British
withdrawal from Baku.
With Damascus in peril the Turko-
Germans have their hands full with
out attempting any further enter
prises in the east. The blow places
the Turks in the gravest situation
they have had to face since the war
began.
Only a few days ago, it was an
nounced taht Turkish divisions, which
had been held in Constantinople for
possible employment either in Asia
Minor or in Europe, according to the
urgency, had been sent to reinforce
the defeated. Bulgarians. Therefore
the Turks reserves are seriously de-
pleted at the very moment their need
in Palestine is absolutely essential.
The timeliness OF Gen. Allenby's
blow, which thus reacts on the whole
Balkan as we'll as the eastern front,
indicates once more the inestimable
advantage of a unified command and
unified action, and vindicates Premier
Clemenceau in making such a demand
at the vital famous Sunday inter-
allied war council after the setback
Of March last.
