a great and strong Bulgaria after the
war allied to victorious Germany and
strengthened by Austria Hungary.
Every one knows that Russian triumph
would lead to the end of Bulgarian in
dependence, as the way to Constantine
pie is through Bulgaria.
For these political and moral rea-
sons Bulgaria could not take any other
decision If we waited until Rumania
took the first step it will now be UNDER

Our relations with Greece are good.
The Greek government has been correct
in its attitude toward US, and we would

guarantees of the Bucharest treaty. We
do not wish to furnish this arm to Vent

Their action had been preceded by
much discussion on the floor as to
whether they were in earnest about
their declaration not to call off the
strike under any promise that the bill
would become law.
Eventually one of the senators went
into the committee room and asked
them just what their position was. The
four heads gave a reply, quoting A. B.
Garretson as follows: ::
Just as soon as the House bill. un-;
amended, becomes a law, the strike or
der will be recalled
Then to this quotation was added the
following line:
