SAYS EUROPE IS MAKING
A TERRIBLE MISTAKE
King Constantine Deplores
Concessions to Turks.

ATHENS. Sept 26 (Delayed) (Asso-
ciated Press) king Constantine. on
the eve OF the great crisis confronting
him, received representative OF the
Associated Press and made known his
plans so far as they can now be formu-
lated.
The Kings Prime Minister had just
arrived, bringing from the capital re-
ports OF revolts throughout the realm.
The crisis secmedo at hand. But the
King was calm amid the tumult sursing
about him, and he told his story frankly,
unhesitatingly. and at times with flashes
OF wit and epigram. He was dressed in
a light gray suit, and might have been
taken for any modest citizen. He spoke
rapidly. in English. as he explained his
cause.
Does the world realize that the Allies
are still at war with Turkey. For peace
was never signed with the Ottoman
Empire. We went on with that war as
one OF the Allies. and mind you we went
on alone under the mandate OF the
Powers. Our valiant army fought at
terrific odds and under disheartening
conditions. Every day they saw one OF
the Allies supplying their enemy with
ammunition, guns and motor lorries,
They could not fight an organization
like that, and so they simply went on
strike.
From the standpoint of the interests
or Europe / cannot see the advantage
OF allowing the Turks to occupy both
aidee of fhe Dardan nellnp and the EoS-
porus. History speaks for itself. VIII
the Turks, excited by victory and by
iiattering treatment from the Powers. be
any different in the future. and will the
neutrality of the Dardanelies, and the
safety of Europe, be assured thereby? I?
scarcely think so. What about the
brave English dead at GallpoIi---the
lads from Australia and New Zealand
over 100000 or them, who gave their
lives in the terrible war against Tur-
key?"

Then they commandeercd oil tho ves-
sells IN the harbor, including the Greek

trate the same atrocities in Thrace.
