IN AID OF The CRETANS
Local Greeks Arranging for a
Mass.Meeting, Banquet
and Ball.
Nearly 1000 of Their Country men on
the Coast-Their Story of the
Struggle of Crete.

The Greeks of this City mean to lend all
the assistance possible to their brothers in
Crete in their struggle against Turkey.
Last night the committee from the Hell
lenic Socisty met at the residence of c.
Demetrik to make arrangements for hold
ing meeting of Greeks and giving ban
quet and bail.
Not only do they intend to raise money,
but if need be they will send a company
of resident Greeks to aid in fighting the
Turks. The committee consisted of 4. J.
Kosta, NJ. D. Vanvales, c. Demetrik, n.
Damianakis. P. Vrettos and P. Pandazes.
"There are about 1000 Greeks in Califor-
MIA, GEO of whom live in San Francisco"
said Mr.. Damianakis; Gin Oregon there are
about 300, in Washington 2O0 in British
Columbia 200, and in Arizona probably
100, making total of about 1900 on this
coast. We are all anxious to do what We
can to help the Cretans.
Few people understand much about the
present trouble. The island of Crete, in the
Mediterranean Sea, is about 300 miles
square and has about Box, 900 people, a fifth
of " hom are Turks and the others Chris
tians OF the Orthodox Greek church. For
427 years prior to 1921 Greece was under
the dominion of Turkey. Then she re-
belled and all of 1t secured independence
except Crete. The war had lasted six
years.
'Since then there has been revolution
after revolution in Crete, think no less
than six to the present time. The last
one was in July and lasted till SepteIn ber
1T was ended by Turkey agreeing to give
Crete parliament and governor and re-
ceiving an annual stipend from Crete.
But Turkey did not keep the. agreement
and has recently commenced slaughtering
the Christians the same as she has hith-
erto done in Armenia and Crete"
The committee is to secure hall and
complete other arrangements for the work
that is laid out.

Condor Succeeded by ]. E. Buckley
as Superintendent of Municipal
Building.

DR.. Rottanzi presided at the Board of
Supervisors meeting yesterday in the
Mayors absence.
A vacancy was declared in the Office Of
superintendent of construction of the
municipal building, thereby dismissing
Daniel E. Condor, and John E. Buckley,
who is a relative of Supervisor Sheehan,
was elected to succeed him and to draw a
salary OF $3.50 per month. The board also
dismissed James Taylor. janitor, and
named William O'Brien to take his place.
The session was dull, but one matter
came up which developed ripple of in
terest. This was q proposed ordin ance
the import of which is to transfer from
the Fire Department to the Police Depart
meat the duty of keeping clear the lobbies,
aisles, etc., of places of amusement during
performances.
Supervisor Britt champio ned the ordin-
ance, but admitted that the Chief OF Police
has use for all the men in his department.
Supervisor Smith opposed the ordinance
on much the same ground that Supervisor
Britt favored it. On Supervisor Smiths
motion the matter went over for one week.
In the meantime the two departments
will discuss this new move. The ordln-
ance provides for two policemen in each
theater.
Supervisor Clinton introd uced resolu-
ton, which was adopted, asking the Legis-
lature to take favorable action upon bill
pending before it for the relief of John q.
Pelton, of whom DR.. Clinton spoke as the
father of the public-school system OF Cali
fornia.
A resolution instructing the clerk of the
board to advertise for proposals for sup
plying the City and County Hospital and
the Almshouse with milk for two years
was indefinitely postponed.
The resolution stopping all work south
of Golden Gate Park wa. rescinded. The
order prohibiting the opening of the
Fourth-street bridge between $50 and Z 80
A. NJ. and $50 and $50 P. NJ. was finally

What n Leading Chemist Says Is the
Best Thing to Do at This Time
of Year,


OF Year.
There has been more discussion over the
subject of quick consum ption, pneumonla
and sudden deaths within the last six
months than ever before. Doctors and all
thinking people have been interested In II.
and the fact that more than two-thirds OF
all deaths arise from throat and lung
troubles has intensified it. The best thing
upon the subject that we have seen IS from
William T. Cutter, State Chemist OF Con-
necticut. He says: Some years ago,
while in Kentucky, l received letter
from number Of the leading physicians
of n w York, asking if I would furnish
them with a pure article OF whisky Tor the
sick. l did so, and for several years FUR
nished them with a whisky as nearly suit
able for their purposes as could hnd; but
neither at that time nor since have lound
what they required until L chemically
analyzed Duffy's pure malt whisky Hav-
ing practical as we'll as a chemical
knowledre of the manufacture OF whisky,
perhaps | am q better judge of its merits
than one having only chemical knowl-
edge. [ was surprised at the analysis Of
Duffv's pure malt whisky to find 1t was
absolutely pure, as I had never found this
to be the case in any other whisky. Its
advantages to those suffering from pull
monic troubles, nervous prostration or
mental exhaustion must be great. con-
slider that its absolute purity, as well as
scientific mode of manufacture, must
commend it to public favor"

ing manner, and as we emerged from our
wanderings and caught sight of them it
seemed like glimpse into fairyland, or like
the enchanting illuminated bowers between
Delhi and Bucharia, so graphically describ-
ed by Tom Moore; and when we arrived on
the broad verandas of Burkett's cottage and
took in at fuller advantage the entire scene
we almost felt that we arrived at a world
different from ours. Certainly these people
are entitled to great credit for the fine dis
play. Several launches and boats which lay
near the shore We'd with the cottages in
their illuminations.
The Belfast Band, acknowledged to be as
good as any in Maine, was stationed on a
small steamer near the shore, and gave a
most excellent concert.
Willie Burkett scored a new success as an
expert musician by performing several fine
selections on Tom Shea's chimes.
