One can imagine the "Os- manic Lloyd" and the ''German Bank" with Turkish book-keeping and Turkish letters written to an exclusively European clientele! Old and trusty employees suddenly found themselves faced with the choice of learning the difficult Turkish script or being turned out in a year's time. The possibility — indeed, the necessity — of employing Turkish hands in European businesses suddenly came within the range of practical politics — and that was exactly what the Turkish Governmen...t wanted. The arrangement had not yet come into operation when I left Constantinople, but it was hanging like the sword of Damocles over 158 TWO WAR YEARS commercial undertakings that had hitherto been purely German. Optimists still hoped it never would come to this pass and would have welcomed any political-military blow that would put a damper on Turkey's arrogance. Others, believing firmly in a final Turkish victory, began to learn Turkish feverishly.
