The immediate diplomatic
reaction in the British capital
was that failure by the West

tainly would spell the end Of

The Baghdad Alliance does
not commit It's members to

In case Of attack or internal
revolt, but 1t does place on the
allies the obligation to consider
all-out help in such situations.

Iraqi Army plot was cunningly
timed and long prepared.
King Faisal II and Premier
Nuri Said were scheduled to

clear that in trying to get

it should be made clear to him
that we do not like his brand
Of imperialism any better than

Senator Wiley's statement
said the aim Of the administra-
ton has always been to avoid
a Middle East blow-up which
could lead by chain reaction
to World War III. I feel conf

that aim. and that we must
do So"
He added:
"The situation in Jordan

Turk Leaders
Wait in Vain

ISTANBUL. Turkey, July IA
(R.-Turkish leaders waited in
vain at Istanbul's airport today
for King Faisal of Iraq. Crown
Prince Abdul Ilah and Premier
Nuri Said to arrive for a meet
ing Of the Moslem members of
the Baghdad pact alliance.
Then Turkish President Celal
Bayar, Premier Adnan Men
deres and Foreign Minister Fa-
tin Rushtu Zorlu took of unex-
pectedly for their capital, An
kara.
Despite the startling news of
the coup in Iraq, the Turks and
diplomats of the other Moslem
members of the pact-Iran,
Pakistan and Iraq-waited at
the airport for hours.
Emergency Session Held
When it became evident the
Iraq chiefs were not coming,
the three Turkish leaders held
an emergency session. Then
they suddenly reappeared at
the airport with a heavy police
escort, which showed aside as
sembled newsmen and photog-
raphers, and took of.
They were followed in an
other plane by Pakistan's diplo-
matte representatives.
Iraqi diplomats continued to
wait, but the military band and
guard of honor that had been
lined up on the runway marched
of. Welcoming flags were
lowered.
The Baghdad Pact conference
was to have opened here to-
morrow.
Ankara May Be Site
1t seemed likely Turkish Pre-
mier Menderes had decided to
shift the scene of the confer
ence to Ankara where he would
be close to his headquarters.
In Ankara, the Turks are
expected to meet with Shah
Mohammed Reza Pahlevi of
Iran and President Oskander
Mira and Foreign Minister s.

startling turn of events in the

Mr.. Khalidi has been in Lon

LONDON. July IA tR.-For-
eign Secretary Selwyn Lloyd
announced today the British
Embassy in Baghdad has been
besieged by Iraqi rebel rioters,
In a brief report to Parlia-
ment, Mr.. Lloyd said the Brit
ish government has had no
word from Its embassy since
am. today.
The embassy was reported
not TO be sending further mes
sages for the time being. owing
to the presence Of rioters in
the courtyard he said.
Mr.. Lloyd said that assuring
the safety Of British lives in
Iraq lis very much in the mind
Of the government"
Aside from Royal Air Force
personnel there are about $500
BritonS in Iraq. most Of them
in the oil industry.
Mr.. Lloyd said the British
governments information from
Baghdad was very scanty and
while the situation is so un-
clear I think it wise to abstain
from commenting on it,"
He added:
The whereabouts of the
King Faisal IL, the Crown
Prince abdul Illah) and (the
Premier) Nuri Said are un-
known.
There has been some fight
ing around. the palace where
the King was believed to have

Of mounting tension between
Iraq and Syria.
Restrictions on travel along

two countries had been made
more stringent. For the last
three weeks all foreigners
which meant mainly Syrians,
some Egyptians and some
Palestinian Arabs--had been
Iraq's border areas. military
camps and all oil installations.
Early this month rraq Writ
ually closed its borders with
Syria to normal transit traffic
after the Turks acted SINH
larly along their Syrian frontier
Kurds Restive
These moves, combined with
a good deal Of troop activity
north Of Baghdad, increased
nervousness in the Iraq cap
ital. Reports reaching Lon
don indicated many Iraqis
felt something was about to
happen but could not guess
what.
The mounting nervousness
conceded with a renewal of
intense political activity in the
Kurdish tribes mountain areas
in the north Of the country.
This activity was reflected also
among the big Kurdish COM
munities working in the oil
fields around Kirkuk and in
the army itself, which has
large numbers of Kurds.
Kurdish restlessness was
spurred by radio programs in
Kurdish beamed from Cairo.
Diplomats here had reports of
sudden visits in the Kurdish
districts of fraq from impor-
Itant Kurds from other areas,
notably from Syria, Turkey
and Russia.
Oficials have expressed fears
privately over the last few
months that both Col. Nasser
and the Russians would have
the opportunity of exploiting
Kurdish dissidence through
the Kurds who either live un-
der their control or look to
them for political guidance.

In a country like Iraq, where

often run for parliament with
no fear of opposition - the
monarchy usually is an i'm

King FaiSal ascended the
throne after his father died ir
