POSITION IN IRAQ
APPARENTLY DEVELOPING FAVOURABLY LOCAL AUTHORITIES OBEYING GOVERNMENT. KIRKUK NOT IN REBEL HANDS. (British Official Wireless.) (Received This Day, Noon.) RUGBY. June 4. According to the latest reliable news reaching London, the situation .in Northern Iraq appears to be developing favourably. Both at Kirkuk, which is the real centre of the oilfields, and at Mosul, the Iraq authorities seem to be conforming with instructions received from the newly-constituted Government at Bagdad. It appears, therefore, that the important town of Kirkuk is definitely not in rebel hands.
