Constantine Consents to
Immediate Declaration
Against Bulgaria.
ULTIMATUM FIRST
STEP IN MOVE
Will Demand Evacuation Of. Greek
Macedonia-Army Mobilization Order
to Follow w-Anneuneemen Causes
Great Excitement in Athens-Mass
Meeting Planned at Mytilene at
Which to Proclaim Revolution.

Athens, Sept. 81, via London. Sept.
2s.-The Associated Press Is in posi-
ton to state positively that King Con-
stantine decided this morning to favor
an immediate declaration of war on
Bulgaria.
Report that q general mobilization
has been ordered Is premature. After
the session of the ministry Premier
Kalogerpoulos hastily called cabinet
meeting. The premier declared the
government was giving the fullest con-
sideration to the situation and said
there might be addressed to Bulgaria
a noto,of such character that an order
for mobilization might follow.
The details to be worked out include
an ultimatum to Bulgaria, demanding
immediate evacuation Of all Greek
Macedonia. as well as plans for mobil-
izatlon under difficult conditions pre-
sented by the occupation of Greek ter
ritory by the entente forces.
The king discussed the situation
minutely with General Mosothopoulos,
chief of staff, and General Yanakitsas,
former minister OF war He will prob
ably preside personally over a meeting
of the crown council at noon tomorrow.
Even the departure Of Former Pre-
mier Venizelos from Athens failed to
cause the great excitement apparent
here today.
Athens Calm in Crisis.
Despite the profound popular belief
that the country is facing the greatest
crisis in it's history. calm expectancy
reigns in Athens.
The Venizelist morning papers pub
iish declarations which the former pre-
nies left prior to his departure, in
which he says the movement he heads
is not revolutionary. but purely Of
national character, and that he has no
design upon the integrity of the actual
government of the country. @
NJ, Venfzelos declares that his course
is the only -wayaby which national unity
may be preserved, and that he will
struggle Sfor the salvation OF Greece
without the aid o. the constitutions
fgovernmert. II the government will
not act.
viii Aid If King Fights.
But If the king decides to defend
Hellenic soil against the invaders he
will be glad to turn over the forces he
has gathered to cooperate In a common
effort to save the country.
1t is learned that communication be-
tween the king and NJ. venizelos has
already been established through the
former minister Of war; Gen. Yanakit-
sas, and that the outlook is favorable
for an early arrangement OF the diff
culties at present dividing Greece.

very large proportion Of the worst ele-
ment in the party Of opposition? What
honor or glory? What shall 1t profit
q man II he gain the whole world and
lose his own soul?'
Mr.. Harding should withdraw. He
ought to relieve the republican party
Of q candidacy which has become bur-
densome to 1t. The party is popular
in Iowa this year. but he Is so un-
popular that his only chance Of sue
cess Is thru democratic help. 1t is idle
to go into the reasons why. There are
reasons ,or these conditions would not
prevail.
No one man Is as great as the re-
publican party, and no one man ought
to stand In the way Of It's success.
Republicans do not want to elect a
democratic governor; they want to
elect republican, and Harding ought
to be big enough to step aside and
thus end situation which Is becom-
ing intolerable.

Will Ask, After War Ends, That We
Lit Ban on Immigrants and Lands.
Washington. Sept. 2S.-Japan's pur-
its contention for the right Of its peo-
pie to emigrate to and own land in the
United States, suggested in New York
yesterday by Baron Yoshiro Sakatuni,
finance minister in the Toxic cabinet,
was frankly admitted today at the Jap
nese embassy. Negotiations over these
questions, which came to a deadlock
two years ago, are not regarded by. Ja-
pan as concluded, 1t was explained. but
merely postponed while the largest is
sues Of the war are being dealt with.
The position Of the Japanese govern
ment, according to informal statements
by embassy officials, still Is that restric-
tons Oil immigration and land holding
are not only derogatory to Japan's dig
nifty, but are unjust under international
law in that they are discriminatory
against it in favor Of other nations.
Removal Of these restrictions, it is
explained. are regarded as Japan's third
and final step in her rise to statehood.
the first two being the abolition Of ex-
tra-territoriality and the negotiation of
commercial equality treaties.
The embassy believes the renewed ne
gotiations will be most friendly In char
acter. officials declaring good relations
with this country are looked upon as
combining with Japan's vital interests
in China and the alliance with England
to form the three cardinal points of the
Japanese foreign policy.
