SAYS HUNS BLUNDERtD
IN TURKISH CAMPAIGN
Mustapha Kemelpasha Scented
Defeat and Hun Treachery in
1917, He Declares.

| Constantinople, Feb.ll.-German mill
| tary leaders who commanded the Turkish
! armies during the great war played a
| losing game from the start, their ideas of
| strategy being badly at fault, said Mus
| tapha Kemalpashaj, leader OF the Turkish
nationalists in Asia Minor, recently.
He declared he brought the condition
of affairs before the Turkish government,
but received rebuff, which brought about
his resignation from his post. He said
he warned German commanders on the
western front in France in 1917 that the
allies would win the war.
Mustapha Kemal served in the Balkan
war of 1928, and when Turkey enter
ed the world conflict on the side OF the
Central Empires went to the Gallipol
peninsula as colonel. Later he was
promoted and was in command of opera
tions there. Then German officers be-
gan TO arrive and Kemal was transferred
TO Erzerurp, where he was given command
Of the Turkish forces holding that strong
bold. After short period he was again
shifted, this time to the British front in
Syria and Mesopotamia.
Knowing the country and the capa-
bilities of the Turkish troops" he said
in the course of an interview, Il saw the
futiity of plans of Field Marshal Won
Sanders and General Falkenheyn, who
were sent to Turkey by Germany. |

called, but did not succeed, 1917, | was
on the French battlefront and knew then
that the war would be lost. and expressed
my views to Field Marshal Won Hinden-
burg and General Ludendorff.
The latter was quick TO see my reason
ing and gave me a sympathetic hearing,
but nothing came Of my efforts. These
German leaders suspected that was try
ing TO get Turkey out of the war, which
was the truth
General Falkenheyn, under whom j
was asked to serve with our Seventh
Army, was so obviously wrong IN his
strategy that | refused TO continue in my
post. We lost engagements near Alippo,
and | made a report TO Enver Pasha then
Turkish minister of war advising that
in case Of victory. General Falkenheyn
would attempt to make a German colony
of Turkey and an another of Arabia.
This may be found in official records.
Enver Pasha answered | must serve
under General FaIkenheyn, so ! resigned.

been recalled, reioined my troops, VIM

love to whirl about, and most OF them
dance gracefully.
The music sounded so pretty on the
