TURKEY SECOND FOE COUHTKY TO GIVE UP m ? " Review of Military Operations In Which the Ottoman IB A Empire Has Engaged. ' Turkey, which bow has been grant ad an armistice, entered the war In November, 1?14, when she severed diplomatlo relations with Great Brit ain, Trance and Russia. She Is the ?econd of the central powers to ask the allies for an armietloe. Bulgaria having been given an armistice, which led to unconditional surrender, barely tour weeks ago. Military operations began against Turkey November 5 and Great Brit a In annexed the Island of Cyprus. ^ Turkey entered the war only a few days after the German warships Bres lau and Goeben had sought shelter in the Dardanelles, which was at once blockaded by the allied fleet. In April, 191&, allied troops were landed on the Galllpoli peninsula, but the campaign faQfB and the allied troops were with " drawn in December of the same year. ; Mesopotamia and Palestine. The British began a campaign along the Tigris and Euphrates rivers in November. 1914. They advanced to within less than one hundred miles ?f Bagdad, but were defeated, retreat ' ed?te Kut El Amara, where they were laOr forced to surrender. Early in 1#|7 the British renewed the offensive In- Mesopotamia and have continued It successfully ever since until now th?&. are within a few miles of Mosul. Turkey sent armies against the British in Egypt and against the Rus sians in the Caucasus. Both cam paigns had a measure of success at first, but the allies soon drove the Turks back beyond the Turkish frontiers. In Palestine the allied ' drive under Gen. Allenby resulted a few-days ago in the capture of the ljJTJ)bf-tant base of Aleppo. The ' Russian campaign in the Caucasus was rendered fruitless by the rise of the bolshevikl to power. Relations With XT. S. Severed. For several weeks after the United States declared war on Germany Tur key took no action, but on April 21, 1S17, she severed diplomatic relations. However, there has never been a dec laration of war either by the United States o Turkey. Turkey's war activities under the ?A leadership of Germanophile Turks like Enver Pasha were marked by the severity with which the Turks have treated the subject nationalities in their power. The Turkish army has many German officers and the Turkish navy is con trolled by Germans. It was reported seyeral weeks ago that the Germans . la .Turkey would probably resist if the Turks opened the Dardanelles to the allies. CMEE OEM j MARKS TRA1 OF HONS ? Bitterness of Foe's Resistance to Yankees Shown by Utter fl Ruin of Land. WITH THE AMERICAN TROOPS f IN FRANCE. October 23 (correspond fenoe ef the Associated Press).? ('Nothing attests more completely the ' bitterness with which the Germans ^ have opposed the American advance everywhere in France than the utter completeness with which the terrain t easier which the two have fought has 1 been "destroyed, desolated, churned up ; ? by ahellfire, mutilated beyond any im < mediate hope of restoration. " This was true even in portions of - the St. Mihiel salient, for notwith t standing that the Germans fairly ran I across to their famous Hindenburg I line, they did hold along the western ledge of the seetor and by the time the JAmeHoans had been able to make it L great mines had torn the roads and | fieldd asunder, the roads had been f wreaked almost beyond repair by in | tsnttonal enemy agencies as well as Jby American artillery. What was left .of the buildings and dugouts once in ; habited by the Germans had been 1 blown and smashed and crushed to a ? tangled mass of wreckage. It Is In the center of the line be itwien the Meuse river and the Ar , gonne forest, however, where the blt ? ter fighting has been bitterest, that - the destruction is most oomplete. where every handiwork of God and (nan has been desecrated?as one could not-believe without seeing It could bh destroyed. Flanders may be worse, as the English claim, but it Is doubtful because there was not as snuch there to destroy, to blast and to wither. The only comparison, perhaps. Is in the fertile Champagne, where more then four years of attacks and ?euater attacks, bombardment and efrUftter bombardment have reduced t?W7 dwelling and building to a , SSI (as of craters and have bitten off ever^ forest and clump of trees to forlorn stumps minus branches or [ leaves.
