whelming majority of the British peo-
pie do not want him either.
THE Kaiser and his government
are today the mainstay of reaction in
Europe. Not content with carrying

suit of the cotton congress at Wen

American growers as well. as by

valuable information exchanged by
direct contact between growers and
spinners on the cotton fields them

Prince George of Greece, who Is
engaged to Princess Marie B~onaparte,
the great-grandniece Of Napoleon l.,
might once have allied himself close
~ to the English throne. Some years
ago a marriage was being arranged
between him and Princess Victoria,
King Edwards eldest daughter. but
her state of health forbade any union.
Princess Nictoria's malady is appar-
emily i%ncurable. and likely to be
transmitted to any children she might
have.
The obstacles against the marriage
were therefore insuperable. but nat
urally the real reason for the falling
through of the match were not stated
at that time. Very transparent *
plantations. about the objections rails
ed by the Greek church to the mar
riage of cousins. etc, were given out.
Prince George and Princess Victoria,
OF course. are cousins, the King of
Greece being brother to Queen Alex
andra.
