quotes Premier skouloudis as follows:
Greece is neutral and win remain
neutral In spite of pressure. no mat
ter from what quarter II Is applied.
Her neutrality as it affects tie allies
and France in particular viii be OF
such a benevolent character that
Greece will never lift a finger against
the allied troops. Our friendly atfi-
tude toward the allies is shown by the
fact that We have permitted them 60
pass freely through our territory.
which Ia itself Is an infringement on
strict rules Of neutrality.
Today we are asked to give an en-
gagement that we will permit the al

cross our frontier and use Greek ter
ritory as a base and a field Of opera
tions. This would constitute active

NOT A CANDIDATE
POLITICAL DOPESTERS NAME
HANS URDAHL FOR LAND
COMMISSIONER.

Pierre dispatch: II is reported
here In political circles that Hans
Urdahl of Madison, the well known
champion of the public printing com
mission in the 1913 session, and also
widely known for his interest in
various state Investigations, is a can
didate for land commissioner. Mr.
Urdahl served in the house in 1913,
and in the senate in 1915. He is a
lawyer in Madison.
Emphatic denial was given this
morning by State Senator Hans Ur-
dahl to the above dispatch.
The report is absolutely Unbound

shown a copy of the dispatch. mo

Mr.. Urdahl stated that he is not a
candidate for any state office, and
that he had not the slightest inten.
ton of running for congress, as hat
been reported.

COMMERCIAL CLUB
ANNUAL MEETING AND ELEC-
TION OF OFFICERS LAST
EVENING.

Election of officers, which was the
only business transacted, occupied
about a half an hours time of the
fifty or so members of the CONNER
cial club who attended the tenth an
nual reorganization meeting of the
association, which was held last night
in the club rooms.
A president, vice president, treas.
urer and five directors were elected.
The new officers are:
F. l.. Mease, president; DIR. r.. S.
Westaby, vice president, and F. j,
Schueller, treasurer.
The following, with the president,
are the new directors: III. II. Fru-
denfeld, r. b. Fitzgerald, II. III. Hold
ridge and NJ. F.. Berther. With the
five directors held over from last
year, c. j. Porter, j. S. Keegan. #.
G. Smith, DR.. Westaby and A. G.
Schmidt, the directors elected last
night constitute the full board.
A secretary was not appointed as is
customary at the directors meeting
which followed the election. by mem

out the unexpired term of the regu-
larly elected secretary of the club
some months ago. and who has occu-
pied the position with general salts
faction to members and credit to
himself, consented to remain in office
until November 16, when the board
will meet to formally elect a secre-
tary.
1t Is possible that the Commercial
club will ask the city commission to
defray the whole expense of main
tanning the city band.
After being apprised by the secre-
tary that the clubs membership is
about $50, some 100 of which is paid
up, Hans Urdahl pointed out that at
the late session of the legislature, a
bill was passed privileging cities in
the state to assess a special levy for
the purpose of encouraging music for
public purposes. and that under exist
ing circumstances he thought the
club would be justified in withdraw
ing its support from the bandsmen.
The club now contributes $25 month
ly toward the maintenance of the
band.
Mayor Geo. II. Waskey said that
the city commissioners already do
nate $25 a month to the band, and
that the members of the body over
which he presides could scarcely
countenance Mr.. Urdahl's suggestion
before next September, when the con
sideration of making a special levy
for providing the town with music
might be in order.
Upon request. the secretary report
ed that the regular general expense
of the club, exclusive of money do
mated to the band and appropriated
for convention purposes, is about $50
a month. Some 100 members pay 81
a month into the organization. Ii
was suggested that some means be
taken to compel delinquent members
to pay up their dues, but no definite
action in the matter was taken.
