nal conduct of the General Staff has literally dissolved the army and rend- cred Greece incapable of fighting. for you must learn that even if your Gov ernment were to pronounce for inter vention by the Greek army you would no longer find an army to lead to vic tory.
 "Proclamations of the association calling itself the Pan-Hellenic As sociation of Reservists, protesting their a sign from you, in no way correspond to the reality. These proclamations are made because those who make them have been assured Greece will never depart from the neutrality policy adopted, and. above all, the maYner in which this policy has been followed has provoked a very grave malady in the national organism. We do not say this malady is in- curable, but to treat it the forces of the nation must be concentrated, not divided. This reunion of forces must be carried out at once, for tomorrow may be too late. Leave to others the role of party leader, to which those who exploit your throne would debase you, and boldly lace the enemy. By impious and satanic action they have tried, and unhappily with success, to divide the national 6orces. from the union ofJIhic,l alone the nations soul expects health and the greatness of the Fatherland.
 collaboration has become difficult today. The chief of the Liberal Party l. << oi,1 any personal difficulty in the way of the work of national salvation. As suredly, temporary Governments are not ideal, particularly in circumstances so critical for the nation, but the pres ent Government is today a national necessity, and at it's head is a wise man, who in other difficult circum- stances rendered the nation valuable services.
 gro this Government the Liberal Party is ready to accerd it's confidence. Let it be considered a political Gov ernment and do you also accord it your absolute confidence. Remove far from you, and keep far from you henceforth, all sthose persons who illegally, bit by bit, have usurped all the political power. Let your Govern ment turn the political course of the State definitely toward the Entente Powers by offering them at once that benevolent neutrality which they have so long demanded and which has been so long promised them.
 Apply yourself at once with your Government, and helped by us all, to revise the national sentiment weaken ed by prolonged mobilization, the teaching of the barracks, and the pois- on of the foreign propaganda, so that Greece may once again have an army, so that when the circumstances de- mand it-and we are sure they will demand it-it will be able to defend her vital interests, so far as they may be safeguarded side by side this time with powerful allies. traditional pro- tectors, and benefactors of Greece.
 You will see by today's demontsra- ton that the Liberal Party is not the enemy of the Crown nor the enemy of the Royal House, nor the enemy of yourself. It is only the respectful guardian of free institutions and will suffer no one to injure them. That is the true interest of the Crown and only those who are exploiting the Crown seek to persuade you to the contrary. They are your worst ene- mieS.p
