TURKEY'S MISERY
SUFFERING, BUT HELPLESS
COMPLETELY UNDER GERMAN DOMINATION.
(AUSTRALIAN-NEW ZEALAND C,'.Ci,B ASSOCIATION.) (Received August 7, 1 p.m.) LONDON, 6th August.
The Zurich correspondent of the Daily Mail reports that a highly-placed neutral from Constantinople states that the population bitterly hates the. Germans. No one doubts the genuineness of Turkey's cry for peace; but she is so completely under German's domination that a separate peace is unthinkable. Britain's good government in Mesopotamia, and the establishment of free peasant markets in Bagdad, has increased Turkish sympathy towards Britain. The Turkish army has ceased to nave any serious fighting- value. The soldiers are sharing in the prevailing misery, and there are wholesale desertions.
