in the signal system and what each
color stood for and this was all ex-

THE CASE AGAINST THE TURKS

Many people who know the Turks to like them.
This true particularly of those fortunate enough to know
Turkish arlstocrats The better class of Turk said to
be affabe and charming gentleman. The common Turk
reputed to be brave and fair fgheragainst foemen
whom he considers his equals
There appreciation of the Turks must end Their
history for 600 years. contact with the civilization of
three continents and in regions offering opportunities
for development and progress utterly condemns them
No great book has been written by Turk. No
great building has been built by Turk. No Turk has
written great poem or painted great picture made
great scientific discovery No Turk has built good
road produced important mechanical Invention or
perfected an improved system of manufacture trade
The Turk has always been barbarian, always par
asite fighting living the spols and taxes
wresed from better and in recent times degenerat
ing his pristine manliness and given to revolving
cruelty and slaughter His main talent aside from his
solderlv quality has been diabolical cleverness in
diplomacy utilized always to muddle the affairs OF
Christian Europe for his own selfish purposes.
All of these facts compelling reasons why on
general principles the Turk should be driven out OF
Europe and kept out and why Europeon power that
bolster the rotten Turkish system deserves the
condemnation of the civilized world.
