Turks, frightening the Axis by hints
to stay on the Allied side, have al
ready played an important part in
supporting the Allied cause Turkish
people have Furthermore endured
great sacrifices for strengthening the
Army by enormous taxes and capital
leVies and temporary total mobiliza-
ton for labor and the Army. All that
is evidence that the time will come
for Turkeys participation in defeat
ing the Axis. Such a step would pave
the way for the Allies, striking at
Axis defense in Greece and Macedonia
and coupling that assault with an in
vasion Of the Adriatic coast
After the collapse of Germany's
domination and infiltration attempts
in Iran and Iraq, the favorable posi-
ton of the Nazis in the Near East,
after the Munich agreement in Sep
TENDER, 1888, has been completely re-
versed. Thus, the old German dream,
Berlin agdad, may be transformed
into the dreadful nightmare, Bagdad-
Berlin.

standing member OF the Cabinet, the
man in the whole Administration who
stood highest in the esteem and re-
spect Of the American people-and of
Congress.
After our African expedition, the
attacks upon Mr. Hull were accentu-
ated and the bitterness within the de-
partment intensified. Things were ad-
ministratively in bad shape and it
was clear that no coherent and effec-
tive foreign policy could be evolved
under such conditions. Recent devel-
opment made it certain that a Con-
gressional investigation would be in
stigated Mr. Hull issued a statement
saying that he would be glad to de-
fend the conduct of his office before
any tribunal. Thus, showdown seems
sure As it is viewed now, the Presi-
dent must move to straighten out a
mess for which he is primarily re-
sponsible.
Either he has to ask Mr.. Hull to
resign and put Mr.. Welles in charge,
OF he has to get rid of Mr. Welles
and give Mr.. Hull chance to restore
order, harmony and effectiveness by
naming an Under Secretary who will
be loyal to him. Not many doubt that
Mr.. Roosevelt would prefer Mr.
Welles to Mr.. Hull. He likes Mr.. Hull
personally less thA1 he likes Mr..
Welles, though, to the ordinary man
knowing them both, it would seem far
easier to like Mr.. Hull than to like
Mr.. Welles But, the truth is, the
President does not dare to get rid of
Mr. Hull
Mr.. Hull stands too well in the
world, too well in the country and too
well in Congress- He has greater as
sets of personal following, political
strength and established regulations

finally, Mr.. Roosevelt has to choose
between Mr. Hull and Mr.. Welles he
will choose Mr.. Hull. He cannot face
