BY CONSTANTINE BROWN. By Ouble to The Star and Chicagd Daily News. Copyright, 1921. CONSTANTINOELE, Segtember 27.— The failure of the Greeks to reduce the Kemalists has reopened the near eastern question. - The allies, who are occupying Constantinople, and who hoped that the Greeks would be able to defeat -the Turk nationalists, and thus permit the enforcement ef the treaty of Sevres, are now puzzled as to what attitude to adopt toward the belligerents. The British and French are annoyed at the Greek staff officers for'over- estimating the strength of the Greek army, after having been warn- ed by French officers that they were bound to be checked unless they out- numbered_the Turks at least three to one. The British staff officers were of the opinion that the Greeks might de- feat the Turks and suggested a plan which was at first adopted by the Greeks and then canceled by order of King Constantine, whose?* personal ideas were carried out ln!lead with fatal results. After six weeks of heavy flghflng and the loss of many men_the Greek army was compelled to~ withdraw without reaching Angora, the geal med at. The retreat under difficult conditions impaired the morale of the soldiers and the army is slowly dis- integratin n'l'l?;ughgn“ official Greek reports are that the offensive will soon be resumed 1 learn from excellent sources that the general staff has or- dered a retreat te the Eskishehr-Ku- tala line while the Greek government is looking around for some omne to act as mediator. The interests of the allies in the near east are varied. Because the bolshevik! are busy fight- ing famine and are thus unable to help the nationalists, the British see no harm in an uncertain situation in the near east, as this would give Emir Feisul a chance to settle the muddle In Mesopotamia. The Itallans are willing to back up any arrangements harming the Greeks, whom they con- sider their most serious competitors in the east. The French are greatly interested in seeing peace re-established as soon as possble. France has heavy finan- cial interests here. French finan- ciers own about 80 per cent of the Turkish debt obligations and some of them are also interested in Turkish tobacco and railways and in the Ot- toman Bank. Because Anatolia is the granary of the Turkish empire the Turks, on account of the world war and the Greco-nationalist war, are unable to pay either the prinei- pal or interest of the debt to the French creditors, who are badly in need of money. Peace is also desired by American business men who have recently i) vested much capital in Turkey af d are on the verge of losing every- thing.
