LONDON, April 20.~The fighting at the tip of the Gallipoli peninsula across which the Britich have strung their forces and the efforts to dis- lodge the Germans from Streen- straats, the only point on the west bank of the Yser which the invaders have been able to hold since the re- cent rush in Flanders, are today the war activities which hold the greatest possibilities for far reaching results. Although the Turks and Germans maintain that the British on the west and the French on the east side of the Dardanelles are being crushed in their attempts to press forward, newspaper readers in London are be- ing told that all official statements from Constantinople and Berlin beinr- ing on the Dardanelles struggle are being not only censored, but framed jwith the especial purpose of exert- Ing favorable influence on Italy and other wavering neutrals.
