since the nationalists failed to throw
the creeks into the sea. as they had
promised ever since the beginning of
the movement, Mustapha Kemal has
| tried to raise the spirits of the Turks
by trumpeting throughout the world
his alliance with the bolsheviki.
Every week or SO we get another
bolshevik manifesto issued by the ma :
ltionalist leader.
1t is true that the Moscow govern
ment, at the request of the national
lists. did send delegates to Anpora
and received nationalist delegates at
Moscow with much noise. Lenin
cabled to Mustapha Renal that the
nationalist movement has his blessing
and that the nationalists might count
on his wholehearted sympathy; and
that was ALL
Still. the optimistic Turks interpret
these non-committal cables to mean
that the bolsheviki will send their red
legions to support Mustapha Kemal
and drive the allies into the sea
The nationalist reasons thus:

been fighting for centuries over the
possession Of Constantinople. The ole

The estimated cost of building this

Must Undermine British. 80
The cxar's government wanted to
weaken the British empire in ordsr
20 strengthen its own position in Asia,
Wnlie the present soviet regime con-
siders Great Britain its greatest en-
envy. since had it not been for that
power bolshevism would have been
recognized in Europe a long time ago.
In order to live. bolshevism must. un-
dermine the British empire. \
The Turkish nationalist movement
suits the purpose Of the bolsheyiki,
who hope that the ubiquitous peace
imposed on Turkey will stir up the
Mussulmans in India, The Mussul-
mans cannot be efficiently reused UNI
III they see that Turkey is fighting
the British and Turkey cannot fight
anybody unless it has help from the
outside. The only power that can
help now is soviet Russia, and Rus
STA will help the Turks now, if only
by the present Russian regime, even
for selfish purposes"
This argument was advanced by one
of the foremost Turkish political
men, who for the time keeps out Of
all movements. but is one of the rec
ognixed leaders of the nationalists In
Constantinople. Such is the founda-
ton of Mustapha KemaIs propa-
ganda, and there is not Turk who
does not believe in it.
The bolshevik point of view is al
most as clearly expressed by the
many bolshevik agents who five quiet
ly and gayly in Constantinople dis
guised as Russian refugees.
Thew are an interesting Tot. Some
aristocracy, former officers in the
cars guard, but they. now accept
Lenin's gold to do "intelligen'ce" work
for him. They are received every
where and they understand how to
draw sympathy for what they have
had to suffer from the horrible boil
sheviki." Their main business is to be
in close touch with the nationalist
leaders in Constantinople and convey
