BRITISH FORCES AT IRAQ
SATISFACTION IN TURKEY [U.P.A.— By Electric Telegraph-Copyright] London, Apl. 20. A Reuter report from Ankara says that the news that Imperial forces have arrived at Iraq has created a very satisfactory impression in Tuikey, because in the event of Turkey being drawn into the war Iraq represents one of the most important means of communication and supplies.
The report adds that the news came as a complete surprise to the German Embassy at Ankara, and German Embassy officials at first refused to believe that it was true.
