Excerpt from Turkey: A World Problem of to-Day
At the invitation of the Lowell Institute of Boston, Mass., I delivered in January and February of 1920 six lectures on Turkey. As the other Lowell courses on the Near East in the same season dealt for the most part with current conditions, I confined myself to the present of Asiatic Turkey. These lectures, re-written, make up these pages. They present a direct plea for the acceptance by the United States of a mandatory from the League of Peace for Asiatic Turkey and Constantinople, or as much of it as could be saved from other powers. In the lectures I made no secret of my own opinion, but I did not deem it seemly to be an advocate on the impartial platform of the Lowell Institute. For the direct argument as it now stands no one is responsible but myself in assent, dissent, or silence.
Accurate transliteration is the abiding temptation of him who writes on Asian lands. I have, with reluctance, deemed it wiser to follow the familiar path of a much-used book of reference, the "Statesman's Yearbook."
