George W Perkins has addressed
some pertinent questions to President
Wilson, apropos of Mr.. Wilson's pres
ent declaration that while he was
President there would be no putting
in" in Mexican affairs. When you
refused to recognize Huerta you GER
tainly butted i'm in Mexico says Mr..
Perkins to President Wilson, and
again. in the manner in which you
'butted in in Mexico is found the
root of all the trouble and humiliation
to which our country has been sub
jected. not only with Mexico but other
foreign countries as We'll" when
you 'butted in in Mexico" continues
Mr. Perkins, you demanded that our
flag be saluted. You sent our troops
TO Vera Cruz. You brought our dead
away and left our honor behind. You
abandoned your demand that our flag
be saluted." And finally, says Mr..
Perkins. The result is that our pres
tige today in every foreign capital is
at a lower ebb than ever before
reached, and l believe that very many
Americans join me in the feeling that
this is all directly traceable to the fact
that at the beginning of the Mexican
situation you did not act as YOU now

The Case Of the Greeks.
Editor Kennehec Journal

Editor kennehec Journal:
Three events have occurred within a
months time, all Of which are of spe-
cial interest tC Augusta citizens. On
Nov. 20. q mysterious holdup took
place on the outskirts of this city in
which two defenceless girls We're sub
jccted to bodily violence which in the
case of one Of them resulted in merry
Gus shock which confined her to her
he'd for several days. st the time it
happened both girls stated that they
believed the men To be Greeks.
About week later, Nov. IS. Night
Officer t'%r had occasion to reprimand
a considerable party of Greeks at
Block 80 in the North End, who were
conducting themselves in a manner
not entirely in keeping with the pres
crvaticn Of the peace He met with a
defiant refusal to comply with his re-
quest and Was told 10 get out. Seeming
trouble OF a magnitude beyond the
scope of his abilities. he left the build
ing to summons assistance. He soon
cot Deputy Marshal Giidden and Night
OFFICER Corbett on the scene and the
three together entered the building.
where they riet with a decidedly belliS-
eient reception. However, they manaa-
ed to arrest Ln""e Of the TalcOntentS,
ALTHOUGH they were obliged to use their
night sticks as they We're outnumber-
ed 10 80 L.
In the trial which followed in the
Augusta municipal court. the cases
against the Greeks were mol pressed.
IN his remarks the judge stated that
The men were good citizens and had
not exceeded their rights and privi-
legeS.
On Dec 16, two Greeks hailing from
Augusta, shot and killed officer Charles
F.. Mcintosh and Edward II. Winslow,
sta ton agent at West Falmouth, in the
Maine Central yard at Deering juno
ton, when the two latter men attempt
cd to arrest the Greeks for the larceny
If a hand car belonging to the Maine
Central Railroad
Investigations by the Augusta au-
thoritics disclosed two very interesting
facts: % That both these Greeks were
members of the party who were dis
turbing the peace ard who resisted the
officers on the night of Nov. IS: (2)
that one of them. Peter Petropolous
purchased a revolver in this city on
Nov. %. which was the date of the
holdup OF the Eight Rod road, which
coincidence in the light of subsequent
events. makes it seem more than prob
able that he and his companion, Louis
Pulous, or Pappas. We're the perpetra-
tors of the outrage
Now the part that is of particular
interest to Augusta citizens is that
these two men were a part of the gang
which we are told are good citizens
If the citizens of Augusta are COM
PEELED to abide by this ultimatum' on
what constitutes Sood citizenship, pray
what protection have they for them
selves or their families, when going
about their business
Is Augusta to be made a city of ref
uge for murderers, hishwaymen and
desperadoes in general? My personal
interest in the affair lies in the fact
that one of the unfortunate men killed
last Thursday was a very intimate
friend. A. CITIZEN.

Editors Letter Box
Disguised with Christian Herald
"C!aptrap."

Editor of the Kennebec Journal:
The article which you reprint from
Otto Koenig's Christian Herald sounds
all right, but will it bear examination
1t is true that the Bible and Chris
tlanlty are opposed to war. But there
is the same difference between aggres-
slve and defensive warfare that there
is between burglary and police SER
vice. Otto koenig the German must
uphold Prussian militarism, with its
scrap Of paper" diplomacy, Turkish
alliance for the wholesale slaughter of
the Armenians, Belsin outrages. sub
marine and Zeppelin murder of wo-
men and children, and all the fright
fitness" that specialized brutality can
! invent. SO he stuffs his pages with
war news written from the German
viewpoint, raves at American indus
try and finance for sharing in the re-
slstance of civilization to military
barbarlsm, and takes an active part in
that abuse of American neutrality that
President Wilson SO scathingly de-
nounces in his address to Congress.
But because his paper processes to be
the christian" Herald many are like
~ to be impressed by his opposition
to preparedness for defence. and by
generalities about war that recognize
no difference between the rape of Bel
gium, Serbia and Armenia, and the
heroic efforts OF those peoples to de-
fend their homes and women and chill
dren, or the faithfulness of England
and her allies TO treaty obligations.
The very worst hyphenatcs are those
like Otto koenis. who take advantage
OF American opposition to war to up
hold the war devils Of Europe; and
when they do this in the name of
Christianity they so the limit. AS a
minister l am more than Disguised
with those unsophisticated Christians
who are caught by the warinviting
claptrap Of the Christian Herald.
Yours for peace.

Did War Help Our Trade?

The prospect of the closing of Gre
clan ports by the eXigencies of war
lends special interest to the figures of
our trade with that country. After
war was declared our exports to
Greece began to increase enormously,
first in wheat and flour, and then III
general foodstuffs and miscellaneous
merchandise. This was due partly to
the fact that other sources OF supply
were shut off. and partly TO pre-
paredness program entered into by
the Greek Nation Immediately on the
commencement OF hostilities in Eu-
. rope.
During the period August December
1914 our exports to Greece amounted
to about SS,O00000. against 100000 for
the same period in 1913. For the first
nine months Of 1915 they We're S2l,-
100000 against 81 10000 in 1918, same
period. Under the Democratic low
tariff law, imports from Greece for the
HTSC nine UOHtiS bl 1914 titdStu "
per cent over those for the 1913 period,
under Republican protective rates, and
for the first nine months Of 1915 they
increased 60 per cent over the 1918
period, despite trade demoralizations
and scarcity of ocean tonnage.
But if we should suffer the loss Of
our export trade with Greece, on ac-
count of the closing of her ports, we
can still take comfort in our greatly
increased trade with Denmark, Hoi-
land, Norway and Sweden, bearing in
mind the significance of the fact that
at present these are the four gateways
TO the German Empire- The follow
ing indicates our export trade with
those neutral countries
