Halt in Mudania Conference
(From the New York HeraId)

The meeting at Mudania, to ar
range an armistice. which started
out with indications of being OF
short duration. has come suddenly to
a halt. This break in the negotiations
is due to a cause which had been
forecast as likely to lead to trouble
the inability to limit the discus
sion to the purely military aspect OF
the situation and to distinguish be-
tween the province of the soldier
and that OF the diplomat in the set
tlement of Near East dispute. A
report from London says that a
meeting of the Cabinet was called at
midnight, adding that only in the
bitterest days of 1914 were the Brit
ish heads summoned TO Downing
