VIth rafttrenoe to your daapatoh Vo* 886 of 88th
October last (S 6016/367/9X) regarding the Turkish
representatives in the Hejaz, I have the honour to draw
attention to the remarks which Tewfik I oahdi Bey made
to 8ir k 0 Dobba on this subject (see fourth page of
enolosure in my despatch Ho* 6£1 of B4th ultimo)* What
the Minister then said represents, 1 think, the greater
part of the truth, fhe Angora Government, as it never
wearies of saying, dooe not to-day bother about Arabs,
but is busy trying to put the interior of furkey in
order. To aocomplish this, it has, at the risk of
alienating many Moslems within Turkey and without, gone
in for an internal policy of drastic secularist tion.
That does not, however, mean that Angora intends to lose all
touch with Arab countries, when, if ever, the ^reat taek
of internal consolidation shall have been achieved, Turkey
may ma e more active use of the sympathy of her Arab co
religionists, For the moment she is content merely to
remain in touoh and not unnaturally sends a permanent
representative to the centre of Islam - or as near to kleoda
as a "modern” Turk finds it expedient to go. But the main
reason why the Angora Government is establishing official
relations with Ibn Baud is that, as Tewfik I ushdi Bey
intimated, he appeals to them as a political fores. Mr.
layers' despatch fio. 138 of 30th October reports
the presentation of Suleiman Shevket Bey*a credentials.
The papers here tinnounoe the rumour that Ibn Gaud’s represent
ative at Angora is to be one Sheikh Afghani.
