WASHINGTON, June 20. - Bul

Entente is such that it is practically
impossible of payment, according to
unofficial statements made in diplomat
ic circles here yesterday, while any at

an attack upon Turkey, without the
full terms being agl eel to, will drive
bulgaria into taking up arms as an ally
OF the TeutOnies.
According to the reports in circula
ton, not officially vouehed for but gen
orally believed, the Greek government,
il a recent note to the Russian govern,
ment, stated that the only manner in
which Greece could take a share in the
lighting on the side of the Allies would
lie the opportunity of sending a land
force to Turkey throu h the strip of
bulgarian territory that separates the
land of the Hellenes from that of the
NoSlcms. This is the strip leading to
the Aegean, recently acquired by Bul-
Iaria from Turkey through the terms
of the Treaty of Bucharest, which end,
ed the seconl Balkan war.
What Bulgaria Asks
In bulgarian circles il is stated that
bulgaria will not agree to any such
move unless her terms are agreed to,
