In

One measure, though it is unfortunately partly in the nature of locking the stable door on the stolen steed, the Government can take towards the retoration of Mesopotamia. It can curtail the cuvities of our official British Pan-Acabado

Travelling from Cairo to Aleppo I was re- peatedly assured by British Fan-Arabs that Syria and Mesopotamia were essentially one Arab country, that no solation could be satisfactory which did not units them. I am confident that the matter has not rester. there, and that proposals for the federation of Syria and Mesopotamia have been pressed from official quarters in Cairo:

THREAT TO WORLD PEACE.

It is time to speak plainly and to point out that British Pan-Arab propaganda is one of the most serious existing dangers to the world's peace. From the time when a few of Feisal's followers were hustled in Ford cars into Dumaans at the head of Allenby's cavalry the British troops of the glory of captured that historic city for the purpose of giving the Arab Administration a flying start, it began to poison our relations with France

The French themselves must certainly bene share of the blame for the subsequent em- bitterment in Syria; but there lies the root cause of the rift in the Ententa, which later spread mildly to Teheran, and has become flagrant in connexion with the Ruhr Valley

and with Wariaw,

The tenacious prosecution of the Fan-Arab is ides is due to two sets of people. The first a small band of gallant and distinguished soldiers who
