LAUSANNE BREAKDOWN.

PRESS POST MORTEM.

NEWSPARER OPINIONS DIFFER.

LONDON, February 0. Preis opinions in regard to the causes of the break down at Lausanne are divided.

The Times, for example, attributes the Turks refusal to sign the treaty to the report that France was prepared to enter into separate negotiations with Turkey:

The Daily Mail attributes the failure to the "Allied delegates' refusal to recognisa reasonable:Turkish claims to the rights of a nation.

It is generally opined that the breakdown does not involve war and it is suggested that if the Allies remain united, agreement may soon be reached but the danger -of separate negotiations ik recognised.
