Great Brit ain today awaited with some anx iety the next move of Abdu -Aziz Ibn Sand, sultan of Nejd and king of Hedjaz, knowing from past ex perience what indefatigable fight ers the Arabs are. 11m Saud Is quoted as having said that it Is impossible to bring the "Infidels" of the British man dated territories of Koweit, Irak, nnd Transjordnnla to his sect of Islam by peaceful methods and therefore decided to take up the sword. He has had to face trouble with some tribes who are nominally his subjects nnd when three of these the Atnihah, AjmatK and Mutnfr tribes combined to stage an Inde pendent attack, he sensed the dan ger of a disruption of his own do minions. The appeal of Ibn Saud to the re ligious convictions of his followers is the ancient and familiar method of Mohammedan leaders to stir up enthusiasm. The suggestion Is advanced that Ibn Saud hopes to induce Great Britain to purcha.se his neutrality by restoring the annual subsidy of 60.000 pounds. ($300,003) which he received from the British from 1917 to lf24 as his price for re specting the frontiers of Irak and Transjordanla. j If Ibn Saud should descend upon these kingdoms with his 20,000 fol lowers, scattered British forces would be called upon to hold thpm: In check. Three small British war-; ships In Koweit Bay, at the had of the Persian Gulf, a British air force In Irak and various outposts would txar the brunt "of the Job. In this region Colonel T. E. Uw rence. with a price on his had, or eanlzed the Arabs to drive the Turks out of Syria during the war and made Emir Felsal king of Irak.
