General - Sir Charles Harington, entertained at luncheon at the Royal Colonial Institute/said he did nothing in Constantinople but keep his head and temper, which was what he was paid Jor. He was glad to say that as the goalkeeper of Constantinople, he had succeeded in an endeavour to keep absolutely neutral. Britain had gained Turkey's friendship. One reason "was the abstention from fraternisation during the negotiations. Moreover, the Turks were the finest judges of honesty—in others. (Laughter.) Turkey, continued Sir. Charles, would certainly require British help. He was confident that good, honest British traders would do all right in Turkey, but bad traders had better keep out of the way. He aarared Australia and New Zealand that all the graves on Gallipoli would be cared for, and declared that there was not the slightest chance of Turkish interference with them. ■
