CONSTANTINOPLE, Sept. 22, 12.45 P, M, (Associated Press).— Turkish Nationalist forces have seized the town of Ezine, on the Asiatio side of the Dardanelles, and threatening Kum Kalesi, an im- Portant key position on the southern side of the Straits near Chanak. The Kemalists were nowhere opposed. The Nationalist move, in the opinion ef the naval experts here, will enable the Turks to prevent free Ingress to the Dardanelles to the British At- lantic fleet units, which are on the way from Malta. The important positions involved were up to to-day occupied by the French and Italians, and from them the heavy Turkish batteries can com- mand the entrance to the straits.

The town, which the Nationalists are threatening, is on the waterway itself—almost at the entrance to the straits from the Aegean. Both places are within the of neutrality about the Stra laid down by the Treaty of ) Sevres. It is uncertain from 1 flable data whether Ezine is thin the military zone cf neu- trality proclaimed in May, 1921 There would appear to be no doubt, however, that Kum Kalesi } is within this latter zone, against the invasioneof which was i.sued in Constantinople yes- terday by the British Gen. Har- ington, Commander in Chief o the Allied forces.) A pessimistic view of the present situation is taken in Turkish Na- tionalist circles here. It was declared yesterday that, unless the Kemalists received assurances and guarantecs trom the Allies within fort hours that the question of the iWs- position of Thrace would be settled n favor of the Turku, a serious situ~ ion would arise and it would be 1m- eaible to restrain the forward reh of their army, At the same time it was stated that he Angora Government would agree fo negotiations and suspend the move- nent df its troops, provided the Eure- pean powers furnished serious guar- unter to ‘Thrac t for the and the zone miles latter one warning neutrality sof the strait in the Constan- (Continued on Second Page.)

When he was pass- ing Wallabout Market, he said, a man whom he did not know stopped him and gave him the job of trans- porting a number of boxes to an dd- dress on Sackett Street.
