'Turkey's attack on Theodosla was a natural sequel to the outrageous Russian attack on Turkey's integrity. The breach of peace was Russian work." The Tashliche Hundschau says that 'Turkey's action had been expected for a long time by the whole world after the Anglo-French effronteries against the porta. Turkey is to bo congratulated on Its honorable decision," continued the paper. "We sought no allies, but we welcome the heartier, one who takes our part from recognition of bis own best ad van tags. The Tageblatt says that the first blow struck "In defence by the Turkish fleet la the Black sea hits bard at Russia, which at the end of the last century held out a threatening hand to seise Armenia and also asked Germany's aid." The paper adds: "The second blow of the Turkish fleet. It Is hoped, will be aimed at England, whloh for a long time has pursued an ambition for weakening Turkey."

Rome newspapers aver that with Tur key In the arena the conflict Is no longer European, but Mediterranean in scope. It therefore threatens Italy's Interests In North Africa and raises the century old question of the control ot the Mediter ranean, which must compel the Italian government to Intervent on the side of the entente powers.
