BUT IA NATIONS NOT
 AT WAR WITH HUNS
(New York TimeS)

The only countries still neutral are Spain, Holland, Switzerland, Den mark, Norway and Sweden, in Europe and Argentina and Mexico and a few small republics in the western hemi sphere.
 How long Spain will maintain her neutrality is a matter of much con- lecture. Already German submarines have sunk Spanish ships in sufficient numbers to threaten the industries and commerce of the country. The senti- ment at the court at Madrid is frankly pro-ally. Germany has, however. ere ated strong feeling in her favor, and it finds expression in anarchistic uprs- ingS against the government, backed by money from the Wilhelmstrasse. There has arisen recently a wave of revulsion against Germany. Only last month the United States made an agreement by which the armies of Pershing would receive a portion of their supplies from Spain, and in re- 1 turn Spain was to get cotton and other raw products from America.
 The Netherlands, Switzerland, Den mark. Norway and Sweden are un- doubtedly maintaining neutrality large 1 ly through fear of Germany The Netherlands government is now greatly troubled for fear that Germany will make the taking of Dutch ships by America a preteXt for a ruthless in- vasion of that country. Danish ships have been sunk, Danish soldiers killed but Denmark has endured it all with little murmuring. The court is said tc be pro-German. The people by very virtue of the losses inflicted upon them are proally. For time the sentiment in Sweden was frankly ro-German but it is supposed to have veered Nor way is strong in pro-ally feeling, but naturally fearful of the Teuton.
 Exposure of the German plot last September showed plainly that the diplomatic circles in Argentina were ro-German. The situation there is peculiar. The army officers and gov. ernment officials favor the cause O.

 hand, are broadly. Time and agair

PILLAGE ARMIES OF
 TURKS AND ENGLISH
(NeW York Postl

The worst enemy of both Turks and Brush Gin the advance on Bagdad) was the Arab. The Arabs plundered both sides indiscriminately, and when ever battle was fought the Arabs Joined the winning side. At one time suggestion was made that the Turks and British call off the war for a while and form a composite Anglo Turk ar my to strafe the Arabs.
 Arabs are inveterate thieves, and they will risk anything to steal under difficulties. In fact, they prefer to steal where it is difficult rather than easy. Two Arabs entered the tent next to mine at Omara, and, while one of them held knife over the sergeant who oc- cupied it, the other took everything he could lay his hands on. And they es- caped, although that was in the middle of the camp.
 at Omara lost thirty-one rifles one night when their sentr-- went to sleep. Another time an Indian sentry chal- lenged an Arab, who did not reply The sentry shot at him and the Arat fell down. The sentry was curious and went up to investigate As he ap- preached, the Arab jumped up, seized his rifle. and ran away. Another time Arabs stole ten camels out of a camr l that had block houses every five hun dred yards and sentries every 25( yards. By order, Arabs are shot or
