He indicated that Turkey awaiting with inter- est the development of the Near East- ern policy of President-elect Harding. “What is most needed at the Near Eastern conference in London,” the crown prince declared, “is common sense and moderation. “The Turkish peace has been de- Jayed too long and perhaps it now is too late if the Turkish Nationalists have a military agreement with the Bolsheviki. If such an agreement has been made, it is the fault of the allies. “Turkey should follow a policy of peace and not mix in the quarrels of Europe. I advised that Talaat Pasha and Enver Pasha be prevented from plunging us into war, even though Constantinople had been prom- ised to Russia by the allies. It was with the utmost dificulty that I was able to prevent a declaration of war against the United States and thus protect Roberts College and other American interests in Turkey. There is so much anti-Turk propaganda in the United States that I doubt whether anything J may say will re- ceive any attention there . I trust, however, that President-elect Harding will, when he assumes the presidency, quickly renew relations with Turkey and mot follow President ‘Wilson's policy toward this country, for in- stance his policy regarding the boun- daries of Armenia.” Revision of the Sevres treaty be- tween the allies and Turkey is being opposed by every means at his dis: posal by former Premier Venizelos ‘of Greece, he declares in an interview published by the Petit Parisien, M. Venizelos takes occasion to deny re- cent reports that his fight against any alteration of the Sevres pact is evi- dence that he has entered into rela- tions with King Constantine of Greece. g “I cannot fight officially ‘and open- ly,” he says, “but I am a Greek, It makes no difference to me if my ef- forts coincide and are confounded with those of the royal house.
