WAR ON TURKS.
CAN BRITAIN KEEP OUT. A DANGEROUS SITUATION. LAND CAMPAIGN UNLIKELY. By Telegraph.--Press Assn. —Copyright. Received June 10, 11.30 p.m. London, June 10. The Daily Chronicle saye a conference of Ministers was ’ held at Chequers Court (Mr. LlovJ George's country residence), on 1 dangerous situation in the Near East. It is understood the British Government is still desirous of observing neutrality, but the situation may necessitate a change of policy, owing to the uncompromising hostility of the Kemalists, who prohibit 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. The 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.
