teresting, therefore, to consider whether
the Cars Government will be q BILE 10 hold
on it's way in support of the Turks or
whether there may not arise in Russia
itself some power sufficiently strong to
compel the autocrat either to aid the
Greeks or at least to withhold his hand
from assisting the Turks.
The issue is not new one in Russian
history. Early in the century when the
Greeks began their war of Independence
the Czar Alexander, for certain diplomatic
reasons, refused to give them any aid or
countenance. The Gear was at that time
the popular hero of the Russians. 1t was
under his rule they had overthrOwn the
great Napoleon, and the people revered
him almost as if he were divine. Never
theless SO strong was Russian sympathy
with their fellow members of the Greek
church that powerful conspiracies were
organized throughout Russia to dethrone
the Gar or assassinate him solely because
he refused aid to what the Russian peas
ants called ''our Greek brothers"
The strength of these conspiracies was
so great that the Russian Government
was at last compelled to act in alliance
with the English and the French for the
purpo Sc of stablishing the independence
of Greece. What happened once may
happen again. Russia has no Parliament.
but nevertheless her stubborn people have
a way of making their Cars understand
tn cir wishes, and the autocrat who holds
on his way in opposition to the popular
will has generally died very suddenly.
Meantime it is clear the King of Greece
has confidence that the power of the peo
pie throughout Europe is working for him
against the Governments of the nations.
The Athenian newspaper which is recog-
nized as the official organ of the King
declares 1.-THE Cretans reject autonomy
which their King rejects also, and will
accept only the one solution upon which
the Greeks and the Cretans are agreed.
Every effort exerted by the powers in
Crete will have its counter stroke on the
frontier and beyond" This is clear
note of defiance, and perhaps the Car,
powerful though he be, may find it wise
TO give heed to the warning.

TIE ISLAND OF BOO.

Oh, know a land where the Wnlywlg grows,
Where the blossom-bird plays with his bill,
Where the Bunts stroll about with rings on their
toes.
And the Moon MAKES her home on the hill
She watches the children. the pretty old Moon,
From her castle abOve the Boo Band;
And when she's away on her trip every noon
The Man in the Moon takes hand.
It's the prettiest country you ever did see
This island Ear out on the Boo,
With its appe-green sky and its baby-blue tree;
Alandscape Just ready for two.
There's nice little bridge made Of marshmallow
paste,
Ger q lovely hot chocolate stream;
Silver spoons grow by dozens If you care for q
TASTE
And a paupau will hand you the cream
There's nothing to fear In this far-away land,
This island Just under the Moon.
So bring all the children; We'll float far away
On the wings OF the sweet afternoon.

THE REAL IMPRESSION.

To thoroughly appreciate the blessing
which the building of the boulevard con-
fers upon so many needy laborers one
should drive through the park some even
ing when the men are vending their tired
march homeward from work. Indeed, it
is impossible to comprehend the real hu-
man side-the vital side-of the affair
without witnessing this daily ingathering
of the faithful toilers and marking the ex-
preston OF their faces, the spirit of their
footsteps and the general air of fraternaI
providence which hovers over them.
1t is very gratifying to sit in our break
fast-rooms and felicitate ourselves and
each other upon the generosity of those
whose contributions to the relief fund we
read OF in the morning papers, but this is
merely the picturesque view of that splen-
did benevolence. Impressions conceived
through mere assurance, howeve reliable
and agreeable to the belief, are not the
viva realization of actual obse-va-
ton. 1t is the indescribable essence
of the thing which appeals to you
when you actually see the living condi-
tions as you face the boulevard builders
in the park. and this does not appeal to
you when you read of the noble response
that our citizens are making to those
laborers appeals for aid, day by day. The
things that you read are essentially de-
scrlbable and material-the impressions
that you derive from seeing the recipients
in the very act of enjoying the good that
you read of are sentimental ana morally
elevating.
What would the whole community of
San Francisco give to this fund if every
we'll to- do man in it went forth and viewed
the ho ming band at eventide, and were
confronted by the great moral lesson
which it silently yet so eloquen1y
teaches? The CALL has scarcely enough
columns to hold the figures that would be
necessary to tell the wondrous tale.

RUSSIA AND GREECE.

If it is possible to judge the real inten-
dons of European Governments by such
statements as are made public and by
overt actions then it is clear that the
power which stands in the way of the an
nexation of Crete to Greece is Russia.
The Governm ents of Western Europe, and
particularly those of England and France,
are too much subject to public opinion to
defy the liberal spirit of Europe for the
maintenance of the Turkish empire of
their own will. 1t is nothing but the fear
of war with Russia, possibly aided by
Germany, that impels them to act as they
have done.
1t is to Russia the world must look for
the dominant factor in the problem of the
Levantine crisis. Unless something oc-
crfrs to change the policy of the Gear the
uprising in Crete will end in some form of
compromise which will settle nothing and
serve no other purpose than that of post
poning general European war. 1t is in

GOOD WORK WE'LL DONE.

The retirement of Julian Sonntag from
the presidency of the Manufacturers and
Producers Association forms a good OPP
portunity for reviewing the work of the
organization. What has been accom-
plished by the association has been largely
due to the energy and sagacity of the re-
tiring president, and stands as mem orial
of his services to the community.
No association in the City has under
taken a more important work than that
of the manufacturers aud prod ucers. Its
object is to build up home industries, and
in that object all classes OF citizens from
capitalists to workingmen are interested.
No greater duty confronts the people OF
California at this time than that of de-
veloping their home industries, and a
cordial support was given to the associa-
ton as soon as it had outlined the policy
it intended to pursue and set forth the
ends which it sought to attain.
Although many men of eminence and
ability have given their time and services
to the association and have aided it in
many ways by their influence, it is not too
much to say that the best results which
have been achieved by it have been due
mainly to the untiring efforts and wisely
directed energies of President Sonptag.
His spirit has animated the association
from the start, and to his initiative as
well as to his leadership is to be accredited
many of its most notable undertaking
and most beneficial accomplishments.
In reviewing the work of the associa-
tion during his term as president Mr..
Sonntag was able to point out many
benefits attained for the City. Among
these was the fair held in Injunction
with the Mechanics Institute for the
purpose OF displaying home products;
the agitation in favor of pure food. which,
under the direction OF the Board of
Health, is now doing 80 much to break UP
the sale of aduIterated food articles in the
State; the efforts made to limit the en-
ployment of convict labor in com petition
with free labor; and, finally, the suppress
sion of many obnoxious "cinch bills
which might have worked serious niury
to some of our most i'm mportant industries.
1t is not strange that the resignation OF
President Sonntag was accepted very re-
luctantly by the association. 1t will be
difficult to find man to fill the place with
an equal zeal, energy and sagacity.
Nevertheless the association has now
been well started, the outline of its work
laid upon broad policies and the en-
thusiasm of genuine public spirit in
fused into it. The incoming president
will have the advantage of all that has
been accomplished by Julian Sonntag to
assist him in his work, and it is an easy
prediction that the association will go
forward as it has begun and continue to
serve the public interests as well as it did
under its first president

The Supervisors Will Not
Change Foundation
Specifications.
Choking of Sewers Is Attributed
to the Use OF Inferior
Rock.
Children's Hospital Granted one Years
Delay in the Per erformance of
Street Work.

The '.Rattler" test for rock used in con-
crete foundations of bituminous street.
work has again found favor in the eyes OF
the Street Committee of the Board of
Supervisors. and the wishes of the San
Francisco Association of improvement
Clubs have been set at naught.
The association recently petitioned the
board TO eliminate the test from the speci-
fcations for stone concrete foundation
for bitumen and the matter was thor
oughly Investigated by the committee.
In its report, prepared yesterday, the
committee said that great many
opinions as to the advisa bllity of using
the test had been sought and that in p,
majority of cases the verdict had been il.
favor of it because of the evils that had
arisen from the use of inferior rock that
would not stand the test.
In this connection attention was called
to the necessity of frequent cleaning of
the sewers, at large expense TO the City,
because of the debris of inferior rock used
on the streets, and the case of the Chan
nel-street sewer is particularly referred to.
The statement is made tnat the larger
portion of the material that chokes this
outlet is composed of rotten rock from the
contiguous streets and that the same is
true of other sewers about the City.
The committee further argued that
while the present specifications permit
the use of rock to macadamize streets
without the test it would be against
all precedent to permit it to be used in
the composition of concrete under the
pavements unless subjected to the test as
to its hardness and toughness, or in any
work where the present specifications re-
quire the test.
The report was therefore against the
petition.
Mrs. John T. Merrill, one of the charit-
able who assists in maintaining the Chill
dren's Hospital, appeared before the COM
mittee and asked that the measure Or
dering Sacramento street. between Cherry
and Maple paved, be vacated or at least laid
over for period. She stated that the ex-
pense of the work would fall on the hos
pital and that as it was at present trying
to iquidate other large bills it would em-
barrass the institution to a considerable
extent.
The committee agreed to recommend
that the matter be laid over for one year.

Club Urges tho Opening of

The Clarendon Heights Improvement
Club is urging the opening of Seventeenth
street over the top of Mount Olympus hill.
where it will eventually connect with K
street. which runs in . direct line to the
Pacific Ocean.
The difficulty OF grading Seventeenth
street from Uranus to Ashbury is made
much easier than it was at first supposed,
in consequences OF an offer from Ferris &
Williams, contractors, who have facilities
for using considerable Of the dirt to fill in
adjoining property.
At recent meeting of the improvement
club O. Beizerini stated that in an inter.
view with colonel Fred Crocker, in refer
ence to transfer arrangement between
the cars OF the Castro and Sixteenth and
Fillmore st rect lines. he felt satisfied that
Colonel Crocker would grant the request.
The people OF the district want transfers
issued at Fourteenth and Market streets
from the eastbound Castro street cars to
the north and south bound Fillmore and
