TURKS ARE PREPARING
TOLALNCH AN ATTACK
FOR THE DARDANELLES

Great Britain and Italy to-day put
their heads together to seek an ad
justment Of the Near Eastern tangle
1t was arranged this morning that
Marquis Curzo, British foreign secre'
tary, should Sc Premier Poincare Al
ten o'clock to prepare the ground for q
meeting this afternoon which will in
clude the Italian ambassador, Count
Sforza, AdmirH Earl Beatty, com
mander of the British grand fleet, and
possibly NJ. Tinchtch, Jugo-Slav
premier. who also arrived yesterday
from London.
The presence Of Earl Beatty is tax
en- here to mean that the British now
feel the Dardanelles can be fully pro-
tected from the Turkish menace by
naval means which the admiral will
explain to the conference.
Optimism avas in the ascendancy this
morning, and it was believed the
statesmen would be able to arrange
not only the basis of peace confer
ence but also certain peliminaries OF
a settlement.
The two ministers outlined to each
other at great length the views Of
their governments and considerable
progress was believed to have been
made toward an understanding.
Lord Curzon is understood to have
M. Poincare that Great Brit
ain would insist upon the absolute
freedom Of the straits of the Darda-
nelles and would insure this freedom
BY the presence of large fleet.
The British foreign secretary, how
sver, is said to have intimated that
,he British military effort in the Near
East would be confined to the navy,
which gave rise to the impression that
British troops would soon be withs
lrawn from Chanak.
Premier Poincare informed Lord
1urzon that the French policy was
decidedly pacific, its chief aim being
% make peace as soon as possible.
he urged the immediate calling Of a
peace conference for a final settle
nent on the basis Of the Turks re-
naming on the Asiatic side Of the
traits, pending the outcome Of the
conference
The two ministers were in agree
nent on the necessity of maintaining
he freedom of the straits, although |
I il understood there may be some
differences OF opinion as to the char
Icter Of the control to be exercised.
