Masculine Logic -
Nearly 5,000 Australians have been killed or
wounded at Gallipoli, fighting against the Turks.
One result of their death and suffering will be to
establish Russia in Constantinople.
Their fathers and grandfathers used to sing
“The Rooshians shan’t have Constantinople,”
and England (is) still paying the bill for a war to
prevent the very thing we are running up a much
bigger bill to accomplish.
