GREEK KING PLANS
TO GET MORE TIME
Will Dissolve Parliament, But

London, Nov 6.--King Constantine
of Greece has risked precipitOting n

Athens dispatches today brought
word that the Hellenic ruler had de.
termined to dissolve parliament rather
than turn the governmental power back
to Former Premier Veni2clos and that
he would ask Premier Zaimis, retiring
leader, to retain control pending u gen.
eral election. Under the present con.
ditions in Greece aud the Balkans, It
win require at least two months, il is
believed, to prepare for nm election,
aud these will be two Of the most vital
months in Grecce's history.
Premier 2aimis will attempt to recon.
struct the cabinet with the same min.

complish anything.
All political indications in Greece
since the European war began have
shown that Nenizelos has a strong hold
ON the people of that country, When
Ncni2elos, as premier, attempted sew
eral months ago to plunge Greece into
the war on the side of the allies, the
king took issue with him and forced
his resignation from the premiership.
A general election was held and Ven
i2elos was returned to power. He de-
mandcd that Greece fulfill her treaty
with Serbia and aid the Serbs against
the Austro.GemanS and Bulgarians,
Again he quarrecd with the king and
resigned.
NJ. Zaimis was appointed premier but
his ministry lasted only Il short time.
A vote of lack Of confidence this week
forced another cabinet crisis.
The view is generally taken here
that, inasmuch as Veuizelos was up
held by the people in the last election,
King Constantine is endapgering his
throne in denying the constitution
and the wishes of the people by dis
solving parliament

Children Cry
FOR FLETChER'S
CASTOR "a
D.. Taking an Offensive.

The airship raid on the German
bases in Belgium must have been
undertaken for the single purpose
of striking blow at the submarine
menace to Great Britain. 1t was
made i'm greater force than has been
reached by any previous expedition
of the kind since the beginning of
the war. Thirty-four air machines
took part in the action, and all of
these, being well armed with high
explosives, must have inflicted heavy
damage. Detailed reports are to
come. The one thing it is possible
to see clearly now is that Great Brit
ain is aroused to sense of her dan
ger. and of her responsibility to de-
fend herself, without expectation of
having neutrals share her RESPONSE
bilities and dangers with her.
That is the outstanding fact in the
new phase of the situation which the
air raid presents. Great Britain has
at last commenced acting aggressive
ly in war, during which she has
seemed, up to this time, to be only a
cooperative force. The menace of
her own commercial isolation has put
new energy into her campaigning.
Delay in making this raid may
have grown out of imperfect equip
ment. Great Britain had Jagged far
behind all of the other great powers
of Europe in aerial equipment until
the beginning of this war. No doubt
she has worked fast in developing
the new arm. We shall have to wait
to find what effect an aerial bonn
bardment can have ON a submarine
offensive. The probability is that
it has crippled it, but it cannot be
destroyed elsewhere than on the wa
ter.

and confiscatory for our Democratic
lawmakers TO have imposed a stamr

upon the common carriers of our
country.
But why shouldsthe telegraph and

have been marked for a special priv
iiege and nontaxable distinction by
these eminent and patriotic Demo-
cratic representatives and senator's
who pose as the hereditary guardians
and natural champions of that inof-
fensive little human doormat who
calls himself THE Common People?"
The Record is a Democratic news
paper. Its markers for the most part
are dyed-in-the wool Democrats but
never stamp tax Democrats.
But the Record never sneezes
when a Democratic administration
takes SNUFF. 1t is printed for the
people.
III mas criticised this stamp tax war
revenue law inflicted upon the people
by a Democratic administration and
will continue to criticise the inequal-
tiles, absurdities and extortionate
features of this system enacted by a
Democratic congress and signed by
Democratic president.
The Record is not one-sided, how
ever.
Its columns are open to senators
or representatives who may have an
itching desire to rush into print to
defend this masterpiece of war rev.
tax system let loose upon the
nation in times of peace.
