FROM SATURDAY’S DAILY
London, Nov. 28—'Tli3 Kais
er has succeeded at last in get
ting the government at Can
ntinople to declare a holy
var against the Allies of Eu
rope who are nuLv lighting Ger
many and Austria, This means
Mi at war in all of its horrors
will be turned loose on Christ
ians throughout the Turkish
empire and no good accom
plished for the German cause.
The Mohommedaus of India
have refused to take part on
the ground the fight is not one
in which they are interested
and Turkey has been forced in
to it to satisfy tlhe abitions ot
Germany and of a small clique
of Turks headed by Enver
Pasha, who was educated in
Germany and lhas aspirations
of becoming dhe head of the
Turkish government. What
effect ithe declaration may
have in Egypt tis as yet of
course problematic, but, what
ever happens enough white
soldiers arc available do take
rare of the situation, Austral
ia's second consignment is now
available for this duty and 'will
probably be detailed for service
there. They are men used to
such a climate as Egypt’s and
should experience less diffi
culty in becoming acclimated
than European troops.
