London, Nov 5-The al1-night meeting of the Greek chamber, the new attack of Former Premier Veni- zelos on the policy of the governm ment and his criticism of King -Constan- tines Interference with constitution al liberties of the Greek people are recent stages of the new political crisis which, for the time being. has oversha dowed the military situation in the Balkans.

HEALTH BOARD HAS } CHANGES
 TO FAVOR KING Unusual Method Adopted in Awarding of Garbage Col
 lection Contract. BIDS ORDERED FOR
 ONE, 5 AND 10 YEARS Theodore B. Ford and John T. King, Political Leader,
 Rival Bidders.

Local contractors are complaining of the method adopted by the Board of Health in calling for garbage con- tracts. The Board has asked for bids on one, five and ten years.
 The objection consists in the belief that the Board has a favorite bidder and that it has thus arranged three chances to pick it's favorite.
 The bids will be opened tomorrow at noon, before the Board of Contract and Supply and the Board of Health, in the office of the former board
 Bids for one year were recently asked for. Two bidders appeared, T. B. Ford of the Burns Co. and John T. King, the Republican leader.
 The bidding was put over and new bids called for after a lively discus sion.
 MT. King now collects the garbage and has carts and horses. MT. Ford has horses and carts which might be easily converted.
 The three bid system permits the board to pick it's low bid from any group, and gives it a wide range in selecting the low bidder.
 If the Board had a favored contrac- tor and that contractor should be low on the one year contract, but high on the five, or the ten, he could receive the contract, and similarly if he were low in any one group, but high in two.
 The Board of Contract and Supply Health maintains that it has discre- t1onary power as to accepting the recommendations of the Board of Con tract.

DOOLEY, DEMOCRAT, IS NOT INCLUDED IN
 PROMOTION PLANS
Three Republicans in Detec- tive Bureau to Get Ad-
 vances-Near to Go.

Amendment of the city ordinances to permit the police commissioners to add to the number of detective ser geants is a step soon to be taken by the new common council, according to reports current in police circles.
 The plan is to advance three of the four patrolmen, now assigned to de- tective duty, to the rank of detective sergeants. The favored sIeuths are James Bray. Luke Petruscheui and George F. Simon. There are four men working in plain clothes who have not received the rank, and the ac- companying increase in salary, of the detective sergeant. The pay of patrol men is $2.75', $3 or $3.25 a day, the advance coming with the completion of each two years of service. Detect i've sergeants get $1,3OO a year.
 The only one of the four in plain clothes not included in the proposed promotions is James Doo1ey. Dooley happens to be known as a. Democrat.
 Another change said to be impend- ing at police headquarters is the sub- ite for John N. Near, a Democrat superintendent of the Police and Charities building. Near has been the janitor of the building for several years. His salary is $1,6O0, out of which he pays his assistants.

The former secretary of states statement, which reiterates viewsA he has previously expressed on. the sub | ject of preparedness for war, was re- garded as the opening gun in the fight which administration leaders expect in Congress against adoption. of the plan. MT. Bryan's statement says: ttI have read the Presidents speech
 at New York with sorrow and con-
 cern. He is doing what he believes to be his duty and so long as man fol- lows his conscience and judgment we
 cannot criticise his motives, but we may be compelled to dissent from his conclusions. I feel it my duty to dis sent and,s as he has given his views with c1earness, and emphasis, those who differ from him are under a like obligation to express theFaselves with equal c1earness.
 ttHe says that his position is differ ent from that of the private individual in that the individual is free to speak his own thoughts and risk his own
 opinion. This sentence is a little ob- Scure. In so far as he expresses his
 own opinion, he dees not differ from the private citizen except that he
 speaks under a sense of official re- sponsibility; but where a nations fate is involved in a pG5cy every private citizen who loves his country and tries@sto serve it is conscieusl of re ISpOnS1D111Iy.
 ssThe President will not assume that he is more deeply Interested in ths vel fare of his country than the millions who elected him to Nbe, for the time being, their spokesman. And if, as he evidently believes, he is giving voice to the opinions of his countrynen, he is, of course, anxious to have them as frank with him as he has been with them-how otherwise can he know whether he represents or misrepre- sents their views?
 'tHe has announced a policy which has never. before been accepted in this country and never endorsed by any party in the country and he has no way of knowing, until he hears from the people Whether he has correctly | interpreted< the will of the public. His appeal is not to any party but, he says, to all shades of opinion He asks for the hearty support of the country, meaning, of course, that he wants the support, provided the peo- pie favor the policy which he has out lined. He could not, of course, ask them to Support a policy which they did not endorse, especially if they con- sidered the policy dangerous to the col~atry.
 Prom my view of the subject the plan which he proposes is not only a, departure from our traditions but a reversal of our national policy. It is not only a menace to our peace and safety but a challenge to the spirit of Christianity which teaches us to in fuence others by example rather than by exciting fear.
 '"The- President says that we should
 be prepared mot for aggression but for defense.' That, is the ground upon which all preparation for war is made.
