day in Turkey. Balkan Prospect;

Supporters of the “Balkan plan“ say it would:—

. Unify anti-German feeling in southeastern Europe and result in ‘Turkey's entrance into the war on Britain's side.

2. Form a front which would safeguard the Suez Canal.

3. Divert large German forces from western Europe to the east to face a much smaller British expedi-

tion.

Backers of this pla.n concede. however. that it would require the diversion of at least six British divi- sions at the start-probably more than could be spared from North

frica.

Pending a decision. authoritative BfiilSh sources cautioned against optimism concerning the situation in Bulgaria, where German infiltra- tion is reported threatening Greece's back door.
