Peaceful Life of Little Island
Becomes Distracted.
Mosems and Greeks Watch Battle for
the DardanelIes With Conflicting
Emotions--Place of Vantage
for Correspondents.

/ TenedOs.-War is a good teacher Of
geography. The attack on the Oar
danelIes has brought into prominence
this little island, whose existence was
previously unknown to the millions.
The peaceful and uneventful life of
it's 5000 inhabitants has been dis
tracted. The sound of the guns, the
upheavaI of a world-war has come to
their doors 1t has one dominating
height, this little island of six by
three miles-Mount EIias-and to this
height during the bombardments
focked all the Tenediotes to watch
the epoch-making fight.
Before the Balkan wars the Moslem
inhabitants were in the majority;
with the advent of the Christian rule
OF the Greeks most of them left, cross
ing to the opposite shore only four
miles away, where the half-moon of
Islam still floats. A few still remain,
forming a group apart, keeping to
themselves and avoiding their fellow
Christian citizens. If you want to
get them you must go to their spir-
itual chief, the Multi.
On the day of the attempt to force
the narrows all of them climbed up
to Mount Elias, but they kept apart
from their fellow islanders, forming
a group to themselves, with the Mufti
at their head, silently watching the
drama of their country enacted be-
fore their eyes.
No sound was uttered by them that
day: only on the intelligent face of
the Multi could one discern relief
that the day had not gone so well for
the allies, that another respite had
been gained for the Empire Of Islam.
Tenedos, besides its normal popula-
ton supports 1000 Greek refugees
from the opposite shores, prosecuted
and expelled from their homes. These
also focked to Mount Elias. Many of
them were from Chanak and the vii
lagos in the straits. They were
watching their hearths and homes
sheIled by the feet, but they cared
little whether their belongings were
set on fire. hatred against those who

The Vote of Confidence
in New French Pre-
mier Is SIS to En-
thusiasm Greets De-
mands for Guarantees
from Enemies Before
Peace Evidences of
Premier's Dexterity

Paris, Nov. 8, $50 P. M.-The min
isterial declaration made today by
Aristide BRAND, the new premier. was
most favorably received in both the
Chamber of Deputies and the Senate
and a vote Of confidence Of SIS to l
was given the government amid great
applause.
The premier's announcement that it
was the governments decision to OBJ
tain guarantees of a durable peace
before laying down arms also was
greeted with enthusiasm.
Some Dissension
NJ Renaudel, the Socialist leader, in
a speech declared that France should
annex none of the territory captured
from enemies of France. This was
taken to mean that the Socialists were
opposed to the recovery of Alsace and
Lorraine and the deputy's utterances
brought forth tumult and violent pro-
tests. When order had been restored
there came another outburst of en-
thusiasm following a reply to NJ. Rem
is still suffering from a wound re-
ceived in battle. In the name Of the
soldiers at the front. NJ. Maginot de-
clared that M. Renaudel had no au-
thority to speak for them.
Attack Censorship
Deputies Renaudel Emile Constanta
and Rameil attacked the censorship
and demanded that there should be
entire liberty Of the press on political
questions. They protested against the
exclusion from the troops at the front
of any French newspaper on account
of an expression Of opinion by 1t. The
several interpretations, not essentially
hostile to the cabinet but more in the
nature Of requests for guarantees as
to the policy Of the government, gave
Premier BRAND the occasion to show
once more his great mastery over the
chamber, his broad grasp on all ques-
tons and his dexterity in meeting
emergencies.
Dealing with the censorship NJ. BRAND
told the press that it must bear it's share
of the inconvenience imposed on the
whole country but at the same time
promised to seek every means for con-
Citation in collaboration with members
Of the press.
"Franee Champion"
During his speech the premier brought
all the deputies to their feet when he
said:
France in this war is the champion of
the world. She is fighting for civiliza-
ton and liberty. A durable peace can
be given the world only when France
and her allies have reconquered the liber-
ty of the peoples in the enjoyment Of
their autonomy. Just why vain discus
sion? Grant us today unanimous conf

ton simultaneously with the delivery
of the note by Ambassador Page to
the British foreign office. This is in
recognition of the fact that France IS
concerned equally with Great Britain
in the subject matter Of the note, hav-
ing by official orders Of the French
admiralty adopted the British rules
governing seizure and detention Of
neutral ships and cargoes substantial
ly without change.
It is learned that Secretary Lans-
ing's note contains some sharp pass
ages and is very emphatic in con-
domination. especially against the sew
eral features Of the British orders-in-
council. Objection is made particularly
to that part of the British order-in-
council, under which cruisers have
diverted from their voyages and de-
tanned for long periods in British
ports, American vessels bound for the
neutral ports Of Northern Europe.
Though the issues are understood to
be strongly presented by the United
States, they are not regarded as be-
yond the reach Of diplomatic treat
ment at this stage. It already has been
intimated by Sir Edward Grey, how
ever, that the whole subject is rapidly
nearing phase when satisfactory
adjustment can. be reached only by
means Of an International commission.
