B. , diplomacy, it is charged, should have won the support of both Turkey and Bulgaria, or at least, kept them ntai- tral: while Greece should now be an open ally.. Having failed in all this, Mg. G WaiuKj is ad- idea, of the sort of nights the prof es mittcd by some to have bested English, sor passed m these places may - be notably in the case of Turkey. For j gotten from his statement that S England had welded great in- "while giving a series, of lec ures i fluence at the Sublime Porte. Yet! an eastern state" hvs Uups brought it permitted the Germans to gradually j him "into such close contact with the gain the ascendency and at the ast pests" that he decided "Aeir mission moment, when a proper diplomatic ef-1 m life is worse than commonly sup fort on the part of England could still posed." The professor said that such hav prevented, allowed Germany the victory. This is only half the charge, When, as a result of this initial blund - er, the question of a campaign against the Dardanelles was broached, it was again to the Foreign Office and its diplomatic Horvice that the nation turned for guidance. Downing street is said to have been little informed on the subject. The Dardanelles blunder '. was committed. Open charges have been made that at the moment the supremo struggle was on at Constan-' tinoplo to win or restrain the Turk, England had. in its embassy there an ambassador and three secretaries not a one of whom knew Turkish, Turk or Turkey. It is said tho Embassy had hnrl n rhof intnrnreter. whn did know Turkish and the Turk. Mr. Fitz-; says however, that ho finds the gen mauriee knew so much that he ac-1 tlemcn reasonably content bo long as quired tho sobriquet of "Tho Man he keeps them supplied with n gump Who Knows." When he was on vaca-: tuous repast of guinea pig whiskers, tion, the Turkish Minister 'at London ; The professor runs the barber shop requested tho Foreign Office not to i too, keeping his customers in little let him return. The Foreign Office i pens, busily engaged in growing consented. In Bulgaria tho situation has been considered even worse, October 1, tho day Bulgaria mobilized, Sid Edward Grey arose in Parliament to say that Iwhilo so far as ho knew Bulgaria :had no hostile intentions, still if she did have, England would be forced to i act. During the first 14 months Eng lish and German diplomats had labored at Sofia to win tho support of Bulgaria. At tho end of that time England's Foreign foreign office did not show that it knew Bulgaria was tied hand and foot to Germany. The English press has just pointed out that while Czar Ferdinand was prose cuting supposedly since negotiations with the Entente ho must have been laughing up his sleeve at . England's simplicity. Two months before the Bulgarian mobilization England changed min isters at Sofia. The one recalled was Sir Max Ironsides. Also exasperatir.tr to English public opinion just now is the failure of its diplomacy to secure more of Greece than "benevolent neutrality." Bugs Now Quoted on the Open Market Columbus. O.. Jan. 17.
