PROHIBITION ORDER
AGAINST CONSTANTINOPLE,
(UNITED PRESS ASSOCIATION.—COPTRIOHT.)
(AUSTRALIAN - NEW ZEALAND CABLE ASSOCIATION.)
CONSTANTINOPLE, 14th June.
Following on a series of postponements, the Governor has announced that the sale of intoxicating lifluprs will be prohibited in Constantinople as from Friday. The decision has caused consternation, and it is doubted if the Turkish police will be able to enforce the decree. Many holders of stocks have not yet made the declarations demanded, but re-export will be allowed. A hundred establishments will remain open for the use of Allied troops exclusively. The decision involves a loss of £500,000 to the Debt Commission, which the Turkish Government is bound to muke up.
