THE NEAR EAST
A DANGEROUS SITUATION KEMALISTS’ HOSTILITY TO BRITAIN Australiau-New Zealand Cable Association. (Rec. June 10. 11.30 p.m.) London, June 10. The “Daily Chronicle” says a conference of Ministers was held at Chequers Court on tho dangerous, situation in the Near East. It its understood the British Government is still desirous of observing neutrality but the situation may necessitate a change of policy, owing to tho uncompromising hostility of the Kemalists, who prohi/iit British vessels touching at Turkish ports. If the Greeks suffer further defeats or the Kemalists gain Constantinople, British prestige in the Middle East will be seriously affected. Tho British policy is not likely to require a land campaign, but may necessitate naval and other indirect assistance to Greece.—Aus.-N.Z. Cable Assn.
