Up TO
LONDON. Sept. 21.-(By The AS
sociated Press)-With progress re-
ported to have been made in Paris
yesterday toward solving the differ
ences between France and Great
Britain, over the Near Eastern cris-
is, British official circles expressed
the opinion today that the key to
the whole situation now lies with the
Turkish nationalists. from whom
nothing has as yet been heard with
regard to their intentions toward the
neutral zone and crossing into
Thrace.
II the Angora authorities agree
to a peace conference there obvious
lv will be an armistice. Meanwhile
it lis authoritatively said there is no
basis for the suggestion that Great
Britain will be prepared to %evacuate
the position her troops are holding
at Chanak on the Asiatic side OF
the Straits in return for French ma
val assistance.
The makeup OF the conference ap-
peared today to be somewhat prob
lematical. 1t is authoratively stated,
however, that England would be de-
lighted to have America present.

Turks to bury their dead in order
to prevent pestilence.
