Doubt On Attitude
 Of Greeks Toward War

Cologne. June 1s--The Cologne Gazette has published a despatch from Berlin concerning the outcome of the recent general elections in Greece, in which doubt is expressed as to wheth- CT M Venize1os would be uncondi- tional1y in favor of armed interven- ton by Greece on the side of the a1- lies, even in case King Constantine should again enfrust him with the conduct of affairs. It is rather to be assumed, the Berlin despatch goes on to say, that M. Venizelos is follow ing the developments in the Dardan- e11es very closely; that he noticed Eng1and's admission that prog1 ess there is possible only with great sac rifices and that the latest attempts to induce Bulgaria and Rumania to CO., operate with the allies have failed.
 Conditions in this quarter of the world have changed since last spring the scorresp ondent observes.

he was thrown from the car before
Ii struck the bottom OF the incline.
August Kesler of Woodland, several
miles south of Mishawaka, was the
remaining passenger and escaped in
juries by jumping just as the ma
chine started over the bank.
The escape from death or serious
injury by the occupants of the car.
was considered miraculous by the
physicians and others who rushed to
the scene of the accident only a few
minutes after il happened.
1t was the opinion of those present
that the car had skidded on the wet
pavement at this point. The street
showed no marks of skidding. the tire
imprints plainly showing that the ma
chine went straight over from the
car tracks TO the curb and on down
the bank.
