Tuesday night to be driving upon
France's strategic African port of
Djibouti after bombings of British

states, its armies have smashed to
within 13 miles of Paris ' on ' the
northwest, Paris says that nowhere
have . the defenses , been pierced.
Parisians'' Wednesday had - been
watching the flashes of battle and
listening to the rumble 1 of cannon
fire, so close was the battle front to
the French Capital. r,'- '
' The Government Tnoved Tuesday
from Paris to. a point in deeper
France. German bombers have been
haranging the Suburbs, but have
spared the city proper.
About Turkey
It is estimated that Turkey now
has approximately 600,000 men under
arms a small army compared with
the Frenchj. English and German
forces and the call to colors is In
terpreted in Balkan capitals as 'in
dicating that, she is preparing to ful
fill her pledge to the Allies and enter
the European total war. That is, if
Soviet Russia promises to stay out
of the conflict, f i ,
All quarters have seemed to agree
that if Moscow indicates to Turkey
that her entry into, the war would
be the signal for a Russian fulfill
ment in behalf of the Rome-Berlin
Axis, Turkey would have no choice
but to stay out of the war.
By the time this Is printed, any
of several blitakriegic happenings
can have taken place; Paris can have
fallen, and Turkey can have entered
the war and thrown her half-million
men in favor of the Allied Forces,
or the Germans can have stopped
cold at the Marne River where
French soldiers are fighting in a last
ditch on the World War battlefields:
