LONDON, March 24.—Officials of the Turkish embassy in London when told of reported massacres of Turkish military contingents by Kurdish tribesmen when the former attempted to enforce the new law calling for confiscation of religious property, said it was their belief that the responsibility lays with the British who have been inciting the Kurds against Turkey.
The British who control Irak, adjacent to Kurdistan, have followed a consistent policy of stirring up the Kurds against Turkey. Evidence of this is the existence of a movement among the Kurds for annexation to Irak.
