Cairo june 22. Aly Maher has tendered the Cabi net s resignation to the King who Las not yet accepted it. The pre Mier recently said he was ready to make Way for a coalition govern ment if one could be formed. A company has been organized by russian and chinese interests to operate an air passenger and mail service Between Moscow and Kami chinese turkestan. Salonika s Harbor is close to the Dardanelles too near for Turkey s Comfort. Of this reason an italian drive across Northern Greece would invite turkish race through Thrace t reach Salonika first. None of these things May happen in the immediate future or again they might. That depends chiefly upon whether Mussolini elects t wage War against Egypt or Whethe he prefers to risk spreading the War into the lower Balkans by invading Northern Greece. It a also depend very largely upon whether Italy has reached a Secre agreement with soviet Russia pressure from Moscow upon an Kara if strongly applied could be sufficient to immobilize the Turk especially if the soviets threaten Turkey from the rear. Everything is speculation in such a Case Italy and Bulgaria might conceivably enjoy a free hand in Macedonia against the hapless greeks. Everything is speculation in Southeastern Europe today. Al kinds of rumours circulate. One of the latest in Conformable reports has it that the russians have asked Turkey for Access to the Dardanelles something which would be viewed with acute Dis taste Here if it were proved to be True Turkey is credited with hav ing eight or ten divisions opposite the bulgarian Frontier. The bulgarians Are said to have half of their total of 15 divisions Between the sea Maritza River on their Side and the Black of the Border. But neither turks nor Bulgari Are spoiling for a fight. If left alone there would be slight Chance for a conflict Between them at present. Mussolini s War plans make All the difference. If the French army in Syria refuses to surrender what Ever happens to France that too May make a great difference for the prospects of peace in this Quarter of the Balkans.
