Hia headdress is not the Turkish fes. familiar In Egypt, but the somewhat ampler kalpan of lambskin, and his Angers, Instead of dripping blood, toy "with i string of amber beads, ending In a brown tassel. But this courtly diplo matic Kernel Is only one aspect of the man. He Is a dual personality. One Kemal displays the velvet glove: the other, the mailed first within. Kemal has light blue eyes of steel. which at times contract with temper, while his high and thoughtful fore head Is. as it were, gathered In at the bridge of the nose, where there Is a deep dent, indicative of concentra tion, even of a certain moody and obstinate purpose. His health has suffered from his uncertain life, and he likes special cooking. But he has been always a man under rigid discipline.'

He denies and he controls himself; and It is this reserve of energy, thW fanatic-Ism held In leash, that makes Kemal so formidable. . He is like sji engine with steam at high pressure. Talking to him. you would at once understand why the Turk is called the . gentleman of the near east, or aa a correspondent In the Balkan wars once put It. aa "the only Christian among them." Kemal, expreses what appear to be opinions of the utmost moderation. He would have us believe that, he la not concerned with the Pan-lslamle movement, however Interested the Pan-Islamic movement may be In him and that hia alma are limited to Tur key. Nor is he extravagant In the definition he gives of what he meana by Turkey. He disclaims troubling Jilmself with the so-called Pan-Tur anian cause, which would stretch the Turkish empire, east and west, hun dreds of miles. Kernel apparently accepts the facta that Syria and Pal estlne, that Mesopotamia and Arabia, that Greece and Bulgaria and Serbia have been alienated forever from the Ottoman empire and that, with re gard to these territories. It la Kismet But all the more Insistent Is Kern el's claim that In what remalna of the empire the Turk shall rule. As ' each province was lopped off there was a migration of Turks into the j provinces that 'were left. For the I true Turk Is not a merchant, not a worker, not a producer; he is a ruler. a soldier, an aristocrat. Unless he rules, he cannot live. And when he ceases to rule he emigrates. It is for the last stronghold of the Turk that Kemal clalma he Is fighting. Where the Turk is a majority, there, It la argued, he should govern, whatever happens to the minorities. It Is In practice self-determination, preased to the point of denying the essential rights, even of life, to those who dlf I fer from the ruling class, whether In ! religion or race. i Much that Kemal aaya sounds lib ! era).

Stop Mter JKJ dinner di If treat cor- II rect tadlaef nil la no senate to check the popular de cision. The sultan at Constantinople is treated with scant respect. In a sense there Is no cabinet. The assem bly annoints certain men to do cer tain thlnrs, and It Is to the assembly that they are responsible. Kernel Is. In name, merely the president of the assembly. But, In fact, the aovern ment tree rapidly become autocratic On Kemal there has been . conferred for a limited but constantly extended period, a dictatorship which Is now absolute. When he drove back the Greeks from the Sakarla rtver, the assembly created him field marshal and hailed him as "The Olorlons.v Under the stress of war, fanaticism thua forced . the leadership Into his supreme handa. The fact Is that the rise of Kemal Is by no meana ao surprising as at first It appeared. On more than one occasion Turkish history records similar phenomenon. The power of Islam ta the away of the aword. and whoever holda the sword must al ways threaten the Influence and even the life of the reigning Sultan. It was thua that the Turks themselves. a thousand years ago, absorbed the powers of the Caliph, or successor to Mohammed, at Bagdad. They played exactly the game that Kemal la play ing today. Similarly, Mehemet All, who, a century ago founded the throne or Egypt, was simply an Al banian soldier who proved too strong for the Sultan. He overran Pales tine. Syria and Asia Minor. and would have seised Constantinople Itself If Russia had not intervened. Just as Britain la Intervening today. Fifty years ago, Arabi Pasha, also In Egypt, led a national movement which, under a Parliamentary form, rapidly assumed a military aspect, challenged the reigning Khedive, de veloped anti-European tendenclea and was the cause of the British oc cupation in Egypt. And, finally, we have the case of Enver Pasha, who led the Toung Turk movement against the late Sultan, Abdul Hamid. and. In 1S0T, deposed him. In all these cases an able Turk has estab lished himself In authority, partly aa a protest against the misgovernment of the sovereign, partly aa champion against western powers, and partly ss the leader of a liberal Impulse which, however genuine at the out sat, baa hitherto Invariably disap pointed expectations. r The Assembly at Angora has passed measures, the wording of which has been to ameliorate labor conditions and advance Moslem edu cation. It has tried to reorganise the Christians under a Turkish Or thodox Church, Independent of the Greek Patriarchate at Constantinople. But it haa also repudiated the capitu lations, or treaty righta of foreign ers, and It haa quadrupled taxation. And it la with no light hand that Kemal la making war. He Is now a soldier In action, and only to be re garded aa a soldier, and he spares neither age nbr sex. That he obtained munitions and technical aid from the French appears 'o be established his tory. Russia also assisted him. But his organisation of munitions and aupply for his army Is none the less a marvelous feat For the number of Greeks oppoaed to him is ststed to have been no fewer then 300,000. Mustapha Kemal la just over 40 years of age. Enver was his-senior by a bare year or two. and they may be regarded as contemporaries. Both belonged to the Turkish aristocracy that in their youth held down the provlncea now annexed to Greece, Bulgaria and Serbia. Both spent time In Balonlki, which waa then Turkish and a hotbed of revolutionary propa ganda. Both, as officers, received an excellent training, Kemal attending the Military College at Constanti nople, where the Influence of German Instructors under experts like Mar shal von der Uolti was overwhelm ing. Against Abdul Hamld the men worked together,, but aa aoon aa he was deposed Enver and Kemal parted company. Kemal'a contention Is that Knver merely wished to continue the Hamldlan policy under his own name, which haa proved to be a fairly shrewd estimate, and, anyway, be led the opposition. It waa here that he first revealed the character of ex tremist. He waa a man who Insisted on having his own Ideas accepted. As brigadier general he fought In the Oalllpoll cs,mpslgn. display ing brilliant ijualltles as a strate gist but at the sama time showing disinclination to sccept orders. even from so formidable an authority as Uenersl Llman von Bandera He was therefore sent Into Asia, which meant lu effect exile and the loss of promotion, but he emerged again when, with the defeat of Turkey, the Young Turks fled and the Treaty of Sevres was to be forced uoon the Sulla;. In a sense. Kemal'a onooal- Hon was here a little Ilka that nf de Valera in relation to Arthur Griffith and Michael Collins. The Sultun's Government was ready to accept the treaty; Kemal was not, and he withdrew the National As sembly to Angora. In order to nre- vent ratification. That Kemal should be an irreconcilable Is. after all. not to be wuniif red at. He is human. He has seen the entire country where lie was born and bred commnnlv called Macedonia a country held by the Turks for many hundreds of years, annexed by peoples whom the Turk regards as soclsl and spiritual lnfilors. He Is embittered by long experience of defest. Vhst hss now come to Mustapha Kemal Pasha Is the tenting lime. He has won a big fight, In the courage that he has displayed It Is Impossible not to sdmlre him. But what has he 'one and what will he do with his victory? It Is In the misuse of power that the Turk hitherto has always failed. And In Smyrna Kemal's Ideals were illuminated by the wild and hardly reassuring glare of u pros perous city In flames. When Enver rose to power, Ills watchwords were the same ss those of Kemal, namely Independence and nationalism. But what actually hap pened waa an emphasised dependence on Germany and an abaolute denial of true religious equality. Kemal also is depending on foreign assistance and Is also unable to deal with the sectarian question exoept on Knver's sanguinary and oppressive lines. Like Enver, hs Is tar supsrlor lu Intellect to, those with whom he Is associated. But, also Itke Enver, ha cannot ex pect to act In an rn lightened fashion through Instruments which are fash ioned In primitive ignorance. Him self, he may be Incorruptible, celibate, abstemious and a model of all the vir tues. But his army haa always lived on plunder as, the only certain pay, haa always regarded womea as part of that plunder, and baa fought every war not aa a political war but aa a holy, war. These swarthy soldiers from vlllages.where they hardly know the meaning of the name Europe, and think that the Sultan rules the en tire universe, are the basis of Kem al'a power. While Kemal quotes the Koran with a careful reticence, they believe the Koran as the Koran waa believed by Mohammed himself. To them the world consists 4 the faith ful and the unbelievers. And for-un-bellevera the one and never-changing choice la Islam or the sword. Normally, these passions In ; the Moslem lie dormant. Even the Kaiser could not stir up. I holy war. But what Kemal has to face In Anatolia Is no normal situation. His army Is flushed with success. On bis men a frightful orgy of lust and blood haa left for tbe time being Its Irresistible Impulses. To these men It Is little to receive Constantinople by diplo macy, under Imposed conditions, with International navies' and armies pre serving the freedom of the Straits and In a position to Interfere In the affairs of the city whenever they wish. What, the Kemalltes want.-it la evident, la to achieve a spectacular capture of Constantinople, a manifeat "come-back," a world-wide humilia tion of Western Ideals. Whethsr the French agent. Franklin Bouillon, who has been hurrying to Kemal,. would arrive In time to plead for modera tion and If ao, whether he would be able to bold the Turkish leader, pend ing a conference, have been queatlona on which might depend the peace of the world. Did .Kemal really want a peace ful settlement, assuming always that he could hold his army? That again is A Question which no one can an swer except Kemal himself. But no analysis of the man s character and career suggests serious reflections. On no occasion has he ever , com promised. With Envef with his mil itary superiors and with Europe- he haa always maintained a stiff upper lip. Like De Valera, he Is armed with and to some extent enslaved by a formula. It Is the National Pact, So-called, adopted by the Assembly at Angora. To that formula, IKemal stands Ilka a sentry at attention. Ac cording to that formula, he Is to ad vance here and now on- Constanti nople and Thrace. Angora expects him to do It. For, not without reason. Angora has her suspicions of a con ference with Europe, whether at Venice or anywhere else. For In Kemal'a character there Is one fur ther element. Not only Is he per sistent, but he Is also ambitious. He wishes to be himself the man who does things. Power and the exer cise of It have become his very life. In success he Is adored and almoat worshipped. . And thsre, wlthlit a stone's throw, lies Constantinople, with a phantom tultan trembling on a throne which la only maintained by foreign guns that throns which is still to ths Moslem the most glittering prise to be won on this planet. Kemal la Hu man. Has he dreamed no dreama? On a queatlon that may mean hia own partial effacement, Is ne entirely an impartial judge , The Turk who thus rises to prorolnsnce hss al ways hitherto- overreached himself. Will Kemal be wlee In time? If hs refuses now to hold his band, It must he remembered that he also rejected the drastic rsvislon of ths treaty of Sevrss. conceded to him In- March of this year. And that revision em bodied much of the offer made to him last week. His policy baa thus been hitherto to conquer Instead ot discussing. And he haa been able to claim that up to the fall of Smyrna this policy hss succeeded. For with that triumph Kernel ceased to be an adventurer. Even his personality waa merged In his new altuation. Throughout Asia he became a symbol. On him were fo cused hopes, schemes, politics, rang ing from rat Japan, tnrougn India, Ferala, Afghanlatan. Despite him self and his esrlier professions, he has found that Pan-Islam haila him as the appointed sword of the pro phet. And. behind him, there Is rsnged the tremendous mass forma tion of Russia, unrecognised by tne governments of the world, -but none the less demanding a voice in Con stantinople. Mustapha Kemal would bs more than human or less than human If he were not stirred to ths depths of his being by such a va riety ot world-wide considerations. And there Is no evidence that, among his associates, any voice has been raised against the plsn of pushing his campaign to lta utmost culmina tion.
