LONDON. Jan. ?4. (Correspond
ency of Th Associated Press. Arab
ac.iyity against tho Turks in the Palestine-theatre
of- war is expected
here to show - considerable results
during" the nevt few mon.hs. Ac of
ficial report on the Arab exploits
against the Turks duing the first six
weeks of General Allenbj 'a offen
sive in Palestine shows that the
tribesmen confined themselves prin:
clpally to raids cn the railway, ex
tending apparently from Doraa to
Macn.
! This railway, at least in the part
attacked, is not a line of communica
tion Tdth Palestine but with Arabia.
That the Arabs have shown a dis
position to cut what is in some sense
a s-icred railroad is interesting, but
that they were not able to venture
on more - sporadic forays seemed to
indicate that their strength was not
great. .Meanwhile the' Turks were
ablo to keep Modina without appar
ent difficulty, in spite of the efforts
of the King of the Hodjaz.
. ' Arab Weakness Explained.
:The explanation of this Arab weak
ness is apparently partly their an
cient tribal quarrels and partly the
uncertainty of the military situa
tion, which has now been made se
cure by the British capture of Jeru
salem. ' .

themselves at Modina and keep the

BritUh Threat Recognized.
The German peace offer at- Bret
LItovsk is taken by students of East
ern affairs to indicate Germany's
recognition of the importance of the
British threat in the East. In fact
it has been frequently stated that
the military importance of the Brit
ish eastern victories is far more geh
erally recognized in Germany than
In England or America.
Germany's peace efforts arc re
parded by. specialists In Eeastern af
fairs as an effort to draw out of an
economjc and commercial strangula
tion whkh is threatened by the Brit
ish success in cutting the Gerlin
BaRdadTroute. Jt is pointed out that it is even
possible that fihe . most important
military campaign "of 191$ yill b
founght in the East. Tne Manchest
er Guardian expresses that opinion
in an editorial in which it says:
"We take this opportunity of once
more expressing the opinion that de
cisive results on the west cannot b
secured beore 1919. and that if we
are going cn with the war as pro
bably we are we must make up our
minds for another two years of It
remain on the defensive In France
and Italy throughout 1918, making
onr main offensive effort In the east,
and keep our offensive effort on thr
west until 1919. when the American
strength will have reached its maxi
mum." Fifth Series of Games

The Commercial Basketball league

fifth. The games as scheduled for
tonight are Hauser Brothers vs. the
Bishops at 7:30 and the Capital Na

After these games some little spec
ulation can be indulged in as to the
possible pennant winners. The Cap

far won every game played and un
less it meets with some unexpected
hard lack will make it difficult for
any team to overcome the lead in the

The returning American soldier who

Mr. Newell urged the immediate

more by the government to put

schemes and otherwise put the re
maining public lands In such shape
that the returned fighting man ntvy
