Smyrna Standard Dec 12 1924

Housing prices plummet in Anatolia.

In an obvious sign of disquiet in the Anatolian Mandate, median house prices have fallen abruptly with concern of war. Real Estate is even being advertised as 'away from invasion route' as part of their selling point. As further evidence of anxiety with the situation, interest in the Reserve forces has spiked. In the past this has occurred during Speed Boat racing season and at rumours that the Police weren't booking speeding motorboats if the drivers could prove they were in the reserves.

As the new Russian built fortifications go up across the border in Turkey, it seems that the regime in Ankara has given up on the Anatolia Plebiscite due to be held in 1926. Parts of Anatolia have been ethnically Greek for centuries and the influx of Greeks from persecution in other parts of Turkey has potentially swelled the vote in the Mandate to become a part of Greece.
