REPLY TO STATEMENT
BYeP0RTE's ENVOY
Alleged Suggestion That American
Warships Be Sent to Protect
Christians in Turkey.

What Is equivalent to official denial
from both the British embassy and from
the State Department that Great Britain
has been melting the United States to
participation in the European war through
suggesting that American warships be
sent to Turkish waters, as. was charged
in statement given out by the Turkish
ambassador, was obtained by The Star
today.
Officials Of the British embassy here are
authority for the statement that the en-
bassy has made no suggestions and given
no advice to the Department of State as
to the sending Of ships, and presumes
that If the department has taken any
action, it is in consequence of reports re-
ceived from its own representatives and
not on the advice of foreigners.
Precedent Established.
According to precedent OF many
years standing, when disorders have
taken place in the Levant. British and
American ships have given protection
indiscriminately to British or American
subjects, but there has been no question
in the present instance Of any special ar
rangement Of that nature, as no disor-
ders have occurred.
In connection with this view Of the
matter, officials Of the Department OF
State today said that 1t seemed necessary
to furnish financial aid to Americans in

sending a war vessel with gold to various
European countries.
Calling the suggestion by Great Brit
ain to the United States that she would
welcome the presence of American war
vessels in Turkish waters to protect
Christians a vulgar trap to get the
United States mixed in the European
fray on the allies side," A. Rustem
Bey the Turkish ambassador, has Is
sued a long statement
He says he believes the United States
Is too sagacious to fall into such
atrocities charged against each of the
nations concerned as indicating what
they might do under the same provoca-
ton as Turkey. He says:
According to the newspapers. Great
Britain, following In the footsteps of
France. has agitated before the eyes OF
the United States the specter OF
massacre of Christians in Turkey. and
has made this gruesome picture OF the
immediate future, drawn with absolute
disregard to truth, a pretext for re-
questing the United States to dispatch
warships to Turkish ports. That there
have been massacres In Turkey can
not. unfortunately, deny. but the Ar
menians and Maronites who were the
victims, suffered at the hands Of the
Moslems, not as Christians. but as
