Greeks SeeNo

Constantine Declares
Recognition of Ma
tionalists by Treaty
Impossible

Athens, Feb. direct negotia
tions for the settlement of neai
eastern problems between the
Grek and Turkish nationalists are
impossible, said King Constantine
today.
He indicated he was not averse
to conversations between Greek
representatives and delegates chos-
en- by the sultans government, il
such procedure was dictated by
the interests of Greece. Constan-
tine made it evident that his gov
ernment would refuse to recognize
Mustapha Kemal Pasha, head OF
the Turkish nationalists, or his del
egates.
Constantine declared he would
make no overtures to former pre-
mier Venizelos, who is in France,
stating M. Venizelos must take the
initiative.
Il do not recognize Mustapha
Kemal as a person worthy to be
dealt with" said the king. "Why
does Europe make all this fuss over
an outlaw? Mustapha Kemal is only
a big bluff; big bubble, and we
could blow his off the map as we
would blow a fly off The table. If
it seems wise after the London
conference for Greece to enter into
negotiations with the responsible
Turkish government in CONSTANT
noOle we will not hesitate to take
that step, but any discussion must
take cognizance of our right to
hold Smyrna and Thrace. This is
not an imperialistic policy. 1t is
our national policy. We must pro-
sect our people outside the home
land"
Constantine said he had no in
formation that the United Starcs
would soon recognize him but add
ed he was naturally hopeful such
action would be taken. He said
he was glad to see that President
elect Harding had expressed friend
ly sentiments toward Greece in a
to a Greek-Amer-
ican republican club.
Reports that the Greek army in
Asia Minor had suffered a defeat
in recent operations were denied by
Constantine who said the Greeks
had won a complete victory. Con-
Stantine's trip to Smyrna and
Thrace had been postponed until
after the London conference.
