TURKEY’S STAND
REJECTION OF GERMAN ' DEMAND
FOR CONTROL OF DARDANELLES. GERMAN GENERAL STAFF ADVICE. (Received This Day, 12.55 p.m.) LONDON, September 21. London papers feature the Nazi invasion threat to Turkey. The “Sunday Observer” says Turke)/ is understood to have rejected a German ultimatum to hand over control of the Dardanelles. The German genera! staff are believed to have advised Hitler that Germany must fight for whatever she wants from Turkey. The “News of the World’s” diplomatic writer says there is little doubt among military experts that Hitler is about to invade Turkey. Well-inform-ed observers believe that the attack has been delayed only because the Nazis hoped to persuade Turkey to allow Italian ships, flying the Bulgarian flag, to enter the Black Sea. Little has
been said of Allied preparations to meet such an attack, but any developments can be regarded with confidence, adds the writer.
