Concerning Turkey, however, I.ord "Itryce's views were fpruuMated before the peace notes were exchanged and will appear in uhout a month for nuthortaed publication in Loudon and New York under government auspices, owing to their direct bearing upon ili,. terms regarding Turkey laid down t.v ihe Allies, he now lias made them nvailuhle to the AssiK-iabsl l'ress.

He cannot secure justice. As a governing power, he has always shown hlmfcelf incapable, corrupt and cruel. He has always destroyed ; he has never created. "Those whom we call Turks are not :i nation at ail in the proper sense of the word. The Ottoman Turks were a small conquering tribe from Central Asia, who wore ruled during the lirst two centuries of their coiupiests by a recession of singularly able and un scrupulous XulJans. who subjugated the Christian population of Asia Minor and Southeastern Europe, compelling part of these ]>opulations to embrace Mohammedanism . and supporting their own | tower by seizing the children of the rest, forcibly -convert lug them to " - ? - ? -?;?
