TURKEY AND RUSSIA.
ATTITUDE TOWARD WEST. IMPERIALISM RESISTED. TALK OF KINDRED INTERESTS. By Telegraph—Press Association —Copyright. (Received 7.5 p.m.) A. and N.Z. RIGA. Nov. 14. " Down with Imperialism; hail young and independent Turkey," was the closing part of a speech delivered by Tewfik Rushdi Bey, Turkish Minister of Foreign Affairs, at a banquet at which he was entertained at Odessa. The interests of Turkey and Russia required an identical attitude toward Western Imperialism. Both countries had won their independence together, and they must stand together to defeat the attempts of capitalists to enslave them. The Soviet Foreign Commissar's department describes as " pure rubbish " the reported formation of an Asiatic League. Ifc says the Soviet is merely offering Asiatic as well as European countries treaties oi non-aggression and neutrality.
