ISMET PASHA.
Strong Supporter of Present West-
ernization of Turkey.
Mustapha Rental, ruler of Turkey,
has had a number of court favorites,
but the most favored one is Ismet
Pasha. He has several times been
prenaler, prior to his present holding
of the office. The remarkable success
with which Kemal has established a
compact national state on the ruins
of a rambling old empire is due in
large part to this able minister.
Ismet Pasha is a very strong sup-
porter of the, present westernization
policy ln Turkey. To his intimates Is -
met is an affectionate, .kindly friend,
ay
with a brilliant mind and a subtle
sense of humor. To his colleagues he
is an able and scientific soldier, a
martinet in discipline. To the people
of Turkey he is a hero whose reputa-
tion was first nade as staff officer to
Izzet Pasha in pre-war days, notably
in a Yemen campaign against Arabs,
and who later became one of the lib-
erators of his country.
Toward the visitor to Angora, in-
terested in the precocious growth of
the new Turkey, Ismet Pasha shows
the ch -arming politesse of the old
school Turk. But he combines -With
ig.
- this manner a shrewd statesman's
ng, ability to say little of any importance
). about his aims and policies and noth-
lot ing that might in any way offer op -
the portunity for comment or quotation.
Certainly, next to Ghazi Mustapha
tl- Kemal, Ismet Pasha is the ablest
all leader of the new Turkey.
