WILHELM DROVE
TURKEY TO VAR

Paris, June 1S.-(By A. P.)-The
Young Turks, the former German en-
pcror and Russian greed for CONSTANT
nople were responsible for Turkeys
entrance into the war, according to tho
statement of grand vizier to the Council
of Ten yesterday, when he pleaded for
the withdrawal of the Greeks from
Smyrna and the preservation of old
Turkey intact, to insure peace among
300, 900 900 Mohammedans throughout
the world.
Three of the Turkish delegates who
appeared today before the Council of
Ten are said to be friendly to France.
while Tewfik Pasha, former Turkish
ambassador in London, who has not yet
arrived, is reported to be an Anglophilc.
Apparently there is considerable rivalry
between England and France in gaining
the goodwill of Turkey, but the French
high commissioner in Constaniuoplr
scored by giving the sultan the first
news that the conference had consented
to hear the Turkish delegates, and pro
vided n French warship to bring tho
Ottoman representatives from COnstan-
| tinople to Marscilles.

people of greater Berlin were still with

the Entente reply to the German
counter proposals. The text of the

up to that hour. Only those in touch
with official quarters were in possession
Of the summary of the answer to Ger

the Wolff Bureau S report was the only
transcript of the reply at the disposal

The last officials of the Foreign Office
left yesterday for Weimar. An official
telephone message received here just be-
fore noon from that city Indicated the
government was disappointed with the
reply. Berlin editors. who are still en-
joying an enforced holiday because of
the strike, decline to discuss the Entente
rejoinder until the text is available.
The impression of those who engaged
in translating the reply of the allied
and associated powers is that it will be
utterly impossible to sign, and that it
Is probable negative reply will be
wired to DIR. IGaniel Won Haimhausen

Revised Terms Dismay Germans
The changes in the peace terms. as
Indicated by the red interlineations in
the text of the old treaty. are 50 slight
as to cause universal dismay among
those who have had the opportunity Of
examining the document The financial
notifications are considered unimpor
tant and Objectionable. and the terms
governing Germanys admission 10 the
league of nations are declared to be un %
satisfactory.
Government circles state that they
cannot conceive why the government
should be willing TO sign such terms
though it is admitted that the treaty
will be fully discussed. because it il
realized that serious effects, with tn,
spread of bolshevism in Germany, wOul,
be entailed in refusal to sign. Th
Entente's answer also is considered
nothing less than an utimatum.
Commenting on the Allied reply t,
the German counter proposals to tn
terms of peace, the Frankfurt Gazett
says:
"Whatever we do will be terrible
Germany is in no position to refuse T.
sign the treaty when the signature i
q forced by the ultimatum. Let us re
sign ourselves to the inevitable and hop
fer better future.
In concluding violent denunciatiol
OF the treatment given Germany b.
