CONSTANTINOPLE, February s.
Tho political situation in Turkey is
rs dark as ever and the danger of an
armed conflict is by no means averted.
Tho Angora government is in a
very difficult position and the leaders
do not know to which side they shall
turn. Ever since the Greeks were de-
feated. the nationalists have been led
TO belive by the French and Italians
and in many instances even by the
British that Great Britain could not
and would not fight The nationalist
assembly was told repeatedly that the
British were unprepared for war and
that their nation was unit against
a heavy expenditure for new war
for the possession of Mosul.
Thus the entire policy of the Turk
fsh delegates at Lausanne was based
upon the firm conviction that the
British were unable to make a mill
tary effort and that Turkish war
twenty-four hours which would be
sufficient to defeat the small British
army occupying the Dardanelles and
Constantinople.
Use Old Tactics.
Ismet Pasha's telegram last Sunday
to the nationalist assembly stating
that Great Britain considers calmly
the possibility of a campaign against
the Turks and has decided to fight if
necessary, impressed the assembly
deeply and Ismet was instructed, in
accordance with traditional Turkish
diplomacy. to protract the discussions
as long as possible and endeavor to
prevent the outbreak of hostiiities d
any price.
Meanwh hiie steps were taken to
break even the apparent united front
Of the allies and today a note was
presented to NJ. Bonpard and Gen.
Pelle by fsmet Aduan Bey, request
ing the French government urgently
to send a delegate with full powers
to meet Mustapha kemal Pasha to
sign the final peace treaty with Tur-
key in order to avoid any possible
misunderstanding in the future.
The nationalists hope that the
eventual signing of a separate treaty
with France may isolate Great Britain
and induce Lord Curzon to give in, il
not on the Mosul question, at least on
the captulationS question.
Situation Threatening.
In the meantime, in order not to
weaken the morale of the nation,
Turkish newspapers have been in
structed to describe last Wednesdays
developments at Lausanne as favor
able to Turkey and to credit Lord
Curzon with the demand for the ad
journment of the conference until
Sunday. British climbing down" is
the favorite headline in the Turkish
newspapers today.
The situation Is considered as ex-
tremely threatening because it is diff
flcult for the nationalists at the eley
enth hour to abandon the main points
in the national pact without seriously
endangering the position of Kemal
Pasha and his cabinet. Such a peace
would mean the hopeless defeat of
Kemal in the eyes of his rivals and
probably the downfall of the whole
nationalist system of government. To
avoid this it is believed that the ma
tionaliStS prefer to engage the coun-
try in new war.

main wave was recorded at 1922 am,

IF the earth shocks are on land
we may expect to hear very bad
news" Father Odenbach said
The shocks as reported on his seis-

cent years. At intervals the seismic
wave would reach high points only

of the instruments until the shocks
were definitely concluded, he said.

This is the result of agitation by

Meet French Demands.
Strong groups of Ruhr and Rhine
land industrialists have met the
French desire for special agreements,
and the strongest group, of which
SHINES is the leader. has taken ad-
vantage Of the opportunity of gaining

hardly have been gained quickly in

understands the left's rage over the
fact that these super patriots, who
attacked French barbarism" as late
as September, now are trying to Sc
cure favorable consideration for their
special interests from Frances mill
tary representatives. But the; most

least half of the labor party behind

Mistrust Stresemann.
Big industry also mistrusts the
government, negotiates with occupy
ing forces without the government s
authorization, and now, when the
trade unions treasures are empty and
successful strikes are impossible,
they would like to cancel / wage
agreements and return to the patri-
archal plan of hiring and firing
laborers individually.
Living is incredibly dear and 1t is
impossible for millions to feed, clothe
and warm themselves.
The atmosphere was never more
favorable anywhere for a coup
detat and mass rebellion. And the
reich sacrifices twelve valuable days

Everything else is lost. In certain

close solidarity among the victors in
