Fight to Expel Sultan From Turk
 Capital Rages

London, Feb. 24 Agitation in fa- vor of expelling the Turks from Con- stantinople which has been con- spicuous feature in one section of the press during the last few days and which has had the support of religious and philanthropic bodies, met counter blast from another section of the London newspaper world today, which contended N the question was one of such importance that it could not be settled on senti- mental considerations but must be left to the matured deliberation of the supreme allied.
 In lengthy article the Telegraph asserted that British statesmanship has neither the duty nor interest to expel the Sultan from Constantinople, and expressed the opintion that agi- tation to this end was Gill inspired and i'll considered" e'
 "We counsel those who sincerely support it." the newspaper contin- ued, "to give more unprejudiced study to new factors in the problem, es pecially Great Britain position as a power which must not regard the feelings of many millions of it's most prominent subjects"
 The Daily News which has always been staunch champion of the Ar menians and supporter of Glad stones demand to "sweep the Turks out of Europe" also calls for con sideration of the problem in the light of present circumstances. It says the real question is the weight to be attached to warnings of Moslem un- rest as result of the expulsion of Turks from their spiritual capital The newspaper remarks that although Viscount James Bryce. "whose view is entitled to profound respect, dis missed the so-called Moslem peril as being overdrawn, other authorities entitled to equal respect and with more recent experience in eastern conditions hold precisely the opposite view" The News deplores the fact that recent demonstrations were not started before the decision of the al- lies was announced.
 The Morning Post says:
 "The British government by mak- ing hasty announcement throughout India of the decision in favor the Sul- tan has barred revision of that decis- ion"
 The newspaper seeks to show the decision was merely concession to political agitators in Hindustan who may not be temporarily modified by it.
 The recent campaign in favor of the expulsion of the Turks is said by the Express to be based on "per- fervid sentiment" and the newspaper argues there is not a single advan- tage to be obtained in drawing the Sultan away from Constantinople.
