TURKEY.-In the foreground of his
tory are the Bosporus and the OAR
danelles-two narrow necks of water
which separate Asia from Europe
and form the two entrances to Tur-
keys WI private Sea of Marmara.
The famous straits, key to the Black
sea, have been a source of trouble
since the dawn of time. And as
Turkey holds this key so does she
hold the key to the vast oil fields OF
the Near East-the Caucasus and
Iran (Persia).
Hitler, unable to reach the Cauca-
sus oil fields through Russia, may be
forced to go through Turkey. Will
the Turks fight. Only the Turks
know the answer to this. They have
been completely enigmatic, but in
view of recent Russian successes at
Stalingrad they may resist invasion.
Turkey is the kind of a country
which is ideal for tank and plane
warfare vast distances and open
plains. The Turkish defense line
would probably extend along the
Taurus mountain range-the coun-
try's only natural defense barrier.
The Turks, as history has proven,
are stubborn fighters, and unless the
Axis could gain control of the Med
i~terranean they could not be iso-
lated. This is exactly the kind of a
military situation the Nazis try to
avoid.
If Turkey can be won to the Allied
side, and the Allies can establish
complete control of the Mediterran-
can, the problem of supplying Russia
will be greatly reduced by access of
the Black sea route, thus eliminating
the long haul to Murmansk and the
Persian gulf.
The Glasgow courier. [volume] (Glasgow, Mont.) 1913-current, 1943-03-18

INTERCHANGEABLE Mediterranean sea was called by the Romans
the "Sca in the Middle of the Land and to them no other lands, n other
seas existed. On this landlocked SCI of history has been fought all OF
Europes decisive naval battles except two-Jutland and the Spanish Ar.
mazda. In 48O E. c, Xerxes watched the Athenians crush his hopes OF
world conquest Of. the shores of Sahmis In the Battle of Actum, 81 B. c,
the ganeys of Antony met those of Ocavan. The Battle of Lepanto in
1871, off the Peloponnesos, aw Chrisendom throw of the dominance OF
the Turks. At AbouBir bay, off the coast of Egypt Lord Nelson destroyed
GIBRALTAR, MALTA.-Gibraltar and the Suez canal are the Mediterran-
cans only entrances. They have both long been in British hands, but be-
caus the Axis has free access to the Mediterranean through Italy, Great
Britain has attempted to neutIahze Itays strategic position through tn
maintenance of a powerful base on the bomb battered island OF Malta.
Gibraltar is small: two and three quarters OF a mile long by three-q quar-
tiers of a mile wide, and 1,437 feet to its highest point Space to conceal
batteries has only been gained by digging deep into the steep walls. Into
the miles of caverns the British have stored tons of ammunition and food
supplies IS against the day Gibraltar must go m its own. 1t lies within
eesv range of modern guns, if Spain and the Axis powers choose to attack
Algeciras. on the Spanish mainland, is but four and a half miles across
Algeciras bay. Carnero Point, at the entrance to the bay n TIL Spanish
side. is supposedly fortified. Across the Strato OF Gibraltar to Santa Catahn
Point is but Is niles Here, at Fort Hacho, are ongrange guns which could
she'll Gibraltar from the south. No fiat surface in the colony is large enough
defending land based fighters except those available from u newly won
bases in French Morocco. On the other hand the Rock is brsthng with
ant-arcraft guns of all types and will account for itself well
Gibratars position in a strictly naval conflict Is set-ev1dent Gibraltar
could stand and yet the Mediterranean could be lost The Rock could
probably withstand a prolonged siege, but because it car be bypassed by
the methods of modern var it may not be called upon to do so
in the present conflict. Maltas locaion-hah way between Gibraltar and
Suez-is a different story. 1t is a mid Mediterranean fortress, naval and
air base of first magnitude without the control of which any power rim the
neuuaizes ItaIys bases in Sicily and the Italian base on Pantenegia island.
Although its proximity to SiGian air bases has made it mtenable a a
shelter for the British Mediterranean feet it sits athwat Of and threatens
the Axis Europe-Afrca supply route, and it completely dominates the
central Mediterranean. But Malta is more than a base 1t h a symbol of
Allied discrimination and courage.

Napoleon's fleet and his oriental dreams.
Italy has long cherished control CT the Mediterranean, and she has some
ancient claims o this great waterway. AS early as 1000 A. D. the ships
of Venice we're Europes chief contact with the East. But English men
ofws did not neglect the Mediterranean, which increased tremendously
with the opening of the Suez canal in 1869. Soon the British had both ends
bottled up and control of the tiny island of Malta at the botdeneck be-
tween Sicily and French Tunisia, which stood out like a stop signal before
ItLys aspirations in North Africa.
