An official stated that dispatchea to-day did not ,indicate that drastic action* was contemplated by any of the Allies,' eves if the Turks refused to accept the Treaty. There was every indication that the French would do nothing to jeopardise Anglo-French relations. There was no . question of France desiring to enter into a separate agreement. Britain was not prepared to remain at Lausanne and continue the discussions, since this would only play into the Turks' hands and encourage them to shilly-shally^ The British are prepared to leave an official at Lausanne to explains points' of the Treaty.
