the Casablanca conference last night to summarize the momentous 1S days starting January IA, when he met President Roosevelt.
 "The world struggle is proceeding with gathering momentum toward its climax =. 50 far as we have gone we have evry reason to re- joice," he said.
 Radiating complete confidence that the Allies were on the way to certain and complete victory, Churchill said of his conference with the Turks:
 Tt is clear that the ancient frinedship between Great Britain and Turkey, which was slashed across by the tragedy of the last war, now has been revived in it's fullest strength and sincerity"
 T have no doubt (continued Churchill) that an advantage will come to both the British and the Turkish people by that friendship, mutual trust, good will, sympathy and understanding for each others difficulties which now again are in the fullest vitality"
 It was understood that Churchill carried to President 1nonu special messages of greeting from PreSi- dent Roosevelt and King George VI and that Thou had sent Q reply direct by cable to the President and through the Turkish Ambassador at London to the King.
 Churchill summarized the two chief war theaters as follows: Africa-Very considerable fighting must be expected in the next few months and weeks" He was con- fldent that the Germans and Ital- ians would be removed speedily from the entire African continent and thus the menace in the south, so grave when he was last in Cairo in August, l042, would be removed.
 Russia-'The situation there may well prove permanent and fatal' for the Axis. The menace from the north has been removed by RusSia's spectacular victories. '"The tremen- dous featS of arms performed by the Russians under Stalin, 8 great warrior whose name will rank with those most honored in the history of the Russian peoples"
 Of his conference with the Turks, Churchill pointed to the joint com munique which announced agree mentS on the present situation in Europe, land particularly those re- gionS in which Turkey is directly interested, the manner in which Great Britain and the United States would be able to help Turkey materially to consolidate her own general defensive security" and on postwar problems.
 l Smilingly, Churchill declined to give details of the Turkish con- ference.
 "I am sure the communique will show we had an important confer- ence which undoubtedly had a re- lation to general world conditions ' he said. Tt would not be wise to try to read in 1t anything other than what it says"
 He cautioned newspapers against | Au0A@fOuO cPcSuhneAuu AAsSV bAhS Aiy o- teFies of the future"
 But 1t was no mystery that Adolf Hitler's logical paths. if in his des- peration he essAyed new attacks on neutral countries, were in the di- rection of Turkey in the south and Sweden in the north.
 Sweden has gone to great length in recent days to warn the world in general that anybody who in. yades Swedish soil would get a fight, It seemed hardly likely that the significance of the Anglo! Turkish conference would escape the oer- mans. Turkey has always said it would fight any invader.
 It would fight now with the help Of the United states and Great Brit. ain, who are already sending it aid.
