So close grew the confab of host and guest at this point that Turkish and Persian journalists reported ecstatically afterward: "They have become real friends, personal friends and brothers!" At Smyrna, to his grave delight, the King of Kings received personal command of some Turkish troops who pitched under his orders into an exciting sham battle with airplanes raining "boom bombs...
