Think War. viii Resume.
| At the headquarters OF all the peare
delegations the greatest ACTIVITY end
excitement prevailed TODAY. Cipher
kilograms from Soiia Belgrade, Athens
and Cettinje crossed messages from
London to those capitals during the
early morning hours Before noon the
heads of the four delegations had
held several meetings to discuss the
situation. The allies seemed disposed
to consider the. revolution In Con-,
stantinople as an affront to the Euro
