Budapest, Hungary, Sept III as
a scholar regret deeply the refusal OF
the United States TO accept the man
date over Consrantinople because the
learned world lost a unique chance
to have an American library in Tur-
key, which would have brought out
the still hidden treasures Of medieval
Turkish literature, the Koran com
mentaries and Arabian philosophy"
said Prof Ignatius' Goldziher, famous
orientalist, who has just celebrated
his 10th birthday anniversary The
studio where Goldziher received the
correspondent OF The Associated
Press Is in itself a complete library
OF oriental science
Either old Turkey must be rees-
tablished. OF else the nationalists
must totally modernize 1t, which
would be a pity" continued Prof
Goldziher. The Turks are the most
honest people OF the east When a
Turk pledges his word. you can rely
upon Il, which is hardly the case with
their neighbors- But when they come
