With the
Greek
Army in
Asia
Minor,
July
17th,—Kutaia,
Mustapha
Kemals
,
Strategical positioa
in
Asia
Minor,
was
accupied
this
afternoon.
Terrible
fight-
ing occurred
before
the
town, owing
to
the
Turkish
resistance
which lasted
72
hours.
The
losses
on
both
sides
were
enormous
bat
it
was
a
decisive
victory
for the Greeks,
who
ecaptured
numerous
prisoners
and an
abundance
of artillery.
The fall of Kataia
greaily
disturbs
the
Kenalists,
who will be
un_''e
to
retain
Eski
Shehr,
the
new
Gi%ek
objective.
General
Papouias
expresses
the
belief
that the Turks have
lost
their
principal
defensive lines.
The Greeks fought with
spartan
energy
in the
fierce bayonet
at-
tacks.
They
havz
advanced
two
hun-
dred
kilomefres
since
the
offensive
be-
gan
a week ago.
The division command-
*
ed by Prince
Andrew
has made
a
march-
ing record
of
300
kilometres
in
ten
days.

—The Greek
third

enteed
Eskishehr
yesterday,
according
to
a wireless
des
pateh
received
here from
the Greek
bat-
tleship
Averefin.
Kskshehr,
a
town in
Asia
Minor,
lies
27
miles
northeast
of
Kutaia, from which
the Greeks drove the
Turks last
week
Paris,
July
21st.—France,
it was
de-
clared in official circles
this morning, will
send
reinforcements
to
upper
Silesia
-
whether
Great Britain
joins or not in the
reinforcement
movement
suggested
by
France.
The
French
move
will be made
it is declared,
to insure
the safety of the
ten
thousand
French
soldiers already
on
the
ground
there.

L

SR
e
e e
note
yesterday
in
reply
to
the
Brit-
ish
mote
on
the
Silesian
issue
express
ing lack
of
conviction
that the Supreme
Council
could
serve
any
useful
pur-
pose
by
convening
before
measures
are
taken
to
assure
order
and
to pro-
vide for the security of
the Allied troops
now in Upper
Silesia.
According
to the
interpretarion
official
circles
place
upon
the
French
communiecation.
Nevs
re-
ceived
here
today
from
Oppelin
was
far
from
reassuring.
[he
attitude
of
the German
press,
as interpreted
by the
French
despatches,
was
increasingly
provocative.
France,
it is declared,
re-
cognizes
that danger
threatens
from
the
side of the Poles
as
well as
from the
Ger-
man side,
making it doubly
necessary
in
the French
view, to reinforce
the
Allied
troops.
Precautions
first,
decesions
af-
terwards
probably
will
remain
the
French
view, unless
there
are unforseen
development.
