There can be no doubt that the Greeks
are ready and anxious for war. They re-
member their bitter experiences, and
know that they gained nothing in the past
by tamoly submitting TO the dictum OF
the Powers. They believe that they can
whip the Turks, and they are anxious
TO try. Indeed, it IS said 10y one who has
recently been on the ground that King
George is no longer master Of the situa-
ton. The Greek army says this writer,
IS the Greek nation assembled. no. only
to nght. but TO decide an questions Of
the hour. Ii is the solidarity Of a disci-
plincd army plus the enthusiasm Of a
political mass-mcotine.
II IS. therefore. what the army. what
tho people say. and not what the King
says. The people say war. and it looks
very much like war viii come. 1t may
