MAKING BAD BLOOD.
FRENCH KEMALIST COMMENT,
BRITISH DEFEAT IMPLIED.
ENTENTE SERIOUSLY ENDANGERED.
LONDON, September 10.2.
If French press comments are any indication, the Anglo-French entente was never in greater danger than it is to-day, as a result of the Kemalist victorien
According to Paris messages, the papera continub to talk of Mustapha's success almost as if it were British defeat.
a
The Petit Parisien urges that French troops be immediately despatched to Bigas and other districts ou the eastern shores of the Sea of Marmora where It alleges British contingents have replaced the Greeks. The Lewspaper patronisingly suggests that if the Kemalists advance northwards to attack these British contingents the latter would doubtless welcome the intervention of the French troops and the Turke would not be likely to refuse a French request to refrain from aftacking the British.
The Blatin, referring to reports that the Kemalists have been surreptitiously equipped with French arms, asserts that certain Greeks a year ago supplied Mustapha with machine guns and rifles, The paper declares that the British Government must be disillusioned if it thinks French soldiers will participate in a pro-Greek crusade. "All we can give Britain is the advice that terms must be made with an enemy one cannot beat."
SOBERING FACTS.
LATER.
There are indications that others besides the Action Francaise (mentioned in our earlier cables) are alive to the danger of the Kemalista dictating terms to the Allies at Constantinople, as indicated by the Kemalist envoy Ferid Boy.
The Echo National draws attention to the danger to Beirut of the Turkish occupation of Smyrna and saya that France meet not forget Torkey's attitude in the great war.
The Temps nya that it is unthinkable that the Turks abould try to force the hands of the Allies as Legarda Constantinople or the Dardanelles or raise a threat of Turkish and Bulgarien cooperation in Thrace.
Another factor making for the triumph of soberer) viewa in France is the fear of her protege nations of the Little Entente of Turkish re-entry into Thrace.

LEAGUE MEASURES.
GENEVA, September 10. The fifth commicion of the League discussed the opiam traffic and unanimously passed a resolution, proposed by Prof. Gilbert Murray and amended in að- cordance with suggestion from Lord Chelmsford; asking the governments belonging to the International Opium Convention not to consent to give licences for the importation of opium and other convention applies to narcotics to which the natives of countries which have not ratified or enforced the convention, and which have not adopted the system of control of exporte and imports approved by the Assembly of the League on September 30, 1921:
The Commission considers the question important and urgent but recognizing its complicated technical. character, holds the opinion that that subject should be examined in detail by the consultative committee o opium before definite measures are taken. Therefore it recommends the Assembly to ask the council to convoke the consultative committer as soon as possible to study. the question and if the committee reports favourably the Council should be atked to give effect to the recom mendations of the committee and not refer them again tó the Assembly.
LEAGUE FINANCES.
HIGH SALARIES CRITICISED
GENEVA, Beptember 10. The Finance Commission at the League, has, appointed the Japanese Mr. Adatai to be its reporter.
Two sub commissions have been appointed to examine the financial position of the League and the inancial aspect of the final installation of the Interna- tional Labour Office, respectively.
Colonel John Ward, who was appointed a member of the second sub-commission, in a speech, contrasted the retrenchment in public departments in England with the generans exaoluments of League officials. He said that typists at the Secretariat received a larger salary than he himself as a member of Parliament.
The budget for 1929 of the League and the Interna tional Labour Office exceeds 28,000,000 gold francs.

the right to make its own arrangements for workmen on the usual British trade union terms.
According to Paris rages, French diplomatic circles consider the suspen in of hostilities necessary before the conference can be held, and such suspension entirely concerns the opposing general stafis. As steps however have already been taken at Angora to secure an armistice it is hoped that the conference at Venice may open in the middle of September..
In connection with rumours that Constantine may abdicate and 3L Venizelos may be recalled, it is perhaps ignificant that M. Venizelos arrived at Paris to-day from St. Moritz.
