Allies Claim Loyal MosIems
Are Deaf to Maxi Propaganda

NEA Service StaR Correspondent
London, Dec. IL. - The Moslem
world Is staunchly pro-Ally Accord
ing to welcome adyices which Brit
ish and French colonial relations
experts have brought to their gov
ernments In London and Paris re-.
Gently.
The millions Of marks which Ger
many has spent In recent years In
an effort to show dissention among
the Moslenn subjects Of the western
powers were wasted, say these same
reports.
It long has been notorious that
BY radio broadcasts In Arabic, by
pamphlets and by agents provo.
cateurs, Nazi propagandists sought
TO deprive France and England Of
the support Of their native colonials.
COLONIAL DETECTION
WOULD CREATE TROUBLE
Such a scheme, II It had work.
ed, would have presented many diff
flcult problems right within the
British and French empires. It
would have robbed them Of some Of
their best fighting races. II would
have distracted the attention OF
some Of the British and French gen.
erals from the western front to the
scenes Of Moslem discomfort and
possibly riots.
Nothing Of the sort hoped for by
the Nazi propagandists has taken
place. They pinned their principal
hope on India. But the great Mos
lem fighting races Of the Punjab
are loyal to the British crown as
they have always been.
Then there is Palestine. Here,
not so long ago, Jews and Arabs
were at each others threats. Both
have suspended political strife dur
ing the war. All the money spent
trying to stir UP the Arabs has been
spent N vain.
The Moslem powers Of Egypt and
1rak are allies OF Britain and true
TO tteir alliance. The great ruler
OF most OF Arabia, Ibn Saud Is tend
Ing to his own knitting. He IL salts
fed that neither France nor Eng
land has designs upon his sandy
Kingdom, but he Is not sure about
Germany.
