Pluclly little Greece replied "No"
to the notice OF the combined pow
ers to withdraw from Crete. She
says she cannot consent to give the
Christians OF that island over to
the Turks to be murdered. The
popular feeling. in England and
other places Is so strongly with
the Greeks that the powers will
now seek some other plan to fix
up the matter without war. lIur-
rah for a nation that dares to do
right though too small to enforce
her aims by war. Greece will not
be obllterated from the map of
