COnstan inople. - Kemalist forces

I'm the neutral zone of the Dardanelles
This is the fifth violation of the zone.
Remonstrances by the British officers
failed to stay the advance of the
Turks. British flags were posted
throughout the invaded territory.
ConstantinOple.-Possible war be-
tween Great Britain and Turkey at
least was temporarily ayerted by an
eleventh hour declaration of the
kemalists that they would respect the
neutrality of the straits, pending an
armistice conference. The declaration
relieves the situation which even the
British had admitted was critical.
The NatiOnalists now are on both
sides of Chanak, flanking the British
both east and west. The Chanak area.
however, is within the range of fire
from the dreadnOughts, and the British
are confident Of being able to hold
their position there
In a message to Kemal Pasha at
Smyrna, General Harrington urged an
early meeting of the British and Ke-
mallst Generals at Mudania or Ismid
as the most effective way Of reaching
an amicable understanding in the pres
ent difficult situation caused by the
kemalist advance in the Dardanelles.
The message, which was most con-
ciliatOry in tone, declared 1t would be
a pity at the present juncture to allow
local occupations on the straits to jeop-
ardiZe peace.
Prior to announcement that the Ke-
malists would respect the neutrality of
the straits Hamld Bey, the Angora rep-
resentative, said to the correspondent {:
THE Kemalists naturally will come
across the sO-called neutral zones. but
they have not the slightest Intention of
firing upon the British occupying those
zones. If, however, the British move
