PAGE EIGHT. BRITAIN BEATS TURK(H PLANS By Refusing Demands on Mo- sul Oil Fields, Arabs Are Favored. bs MER BY J. W. T. MASON Qvritten for the United Press) By refusing to consider Turkey's €emand for the return of the Mosul of ficlds, Great Britain has sided with fhe Arabs against the Turks and is crushing the Turkish Nationalists financially. Without the Mosul proD- erty as a future source of revenue, the Kemalists must continue tn’ mon- etary difficulties and Turkey’s future mancial independence will be impos- sible The Mosul ‘area is in northeastern! Mesopc:»mia and contains what are| richest virgin petroleum known. The Turks are e that Mosul ts not a potamia, but belongs to No such. claim, how-! ever, would admitted under inter; ational Jaw. Mosul racially and geo- graphically belon Mesopotamia The Turks have fifty thousand troops within marching distance of Mosul and they are- credited with hay'ng Planned to send the soldiers into the GM fie'ds following the final fa‘lure cf @iplomatic negotiations to win back the petroleum wells. Ready to Fight. But, such a move would be fatal to ‘Turkish nationalist pretensions. Great Britain's new conservative govern- ment wants to be friendly with the Ottomans, but not at the cost of giving up Mosul. Rather than that. Great Britain will fight Turkey. If war comes, the British fleet will capture Constantinople. as the first move in the conflict. This can be done with- out serious difficulty, since Brit'sh troops cont'nue to occupy the north @rn shore of the Dardanelles. Once the union jack files over the levantine capital, it may never come @own and Constantinople will then be the G'braltar of the east, giving Great Britain abso‘ute control of the Medi- terranean. Such an outcome would €levate the Brit'sh Empire to unprece- dented power in Europe. The French.government is gravely part cf Mec ZFurkey prot Bisturbed lest the Turkish er'sis de- velop into just such a victory for Great Brita'n, The French who sup- ported the Turks aga'nst the Gre and brought about the post-war regen- eraion of Turk are now being forced to take the other side If France were to encourage Tur- key to resist Great Britain over the Mosul issue, Mustapha Kemal Pas would undoubtedly believe he could count on French help in a war against Great Britain, and would challenge the Brit'sh to fight France Can Not Help. But, France could not give Turkey any aid against a western power, for the world would be ara'nst her. France knows this, France knows Great Britain ts resolved to fight rather than. abandon Mosul. The French government. therefore has been forced to side with the Brit ish against the Turks, thus over- throwing France's recent pro-Turk'sh Policy, 28 the most probable way eompelling the Turks to back down If the Turks permanently acquiesce $n British control of Mosul, France will be relieved of the fear of Con- stantinop'e becoming a British Gibral far. But, at the same time, the Turks will reelize that France has Deen unable to take further aides with Mustapha Kemal Pasha. French in- fluence wil thereby decline and Bri {sh authority, which has recent! fallen so low inthe Near East, will be restored. If the Turks prefer war to retiring from Mosul, they will have the whole strength of the British Empire against them, and they will be defeated. In that event. too, there will be a British Fecovery in the Levant. Turkey thus has been checkmated, and the Lau ®anne conference has not given Mus: dapha Kemal the success he antic! ted, through dissensions of the al- ——.__—_ ACKERMAN'S BAND TO BE BROADCASTED BY RADIO FROM TRIBUNE TONIGHT ‘The genius of “B'llfe" Ackerman, ler of Ackerman’s “Easy Going Jazz" band will come to the fore in the presentation of a musical prograin from 7:45 until 8:45 this evening.
