entente BLAMED
For Not Showing Very Friend
Iy Feeling toward Greece
Soon Enough.

THE HAGUE, Jan. 6.-The Wander
land comments as follows on the ar
rest by the French authorities at
Saloniki Of the consuls representing
the Teutonic allies:
"This Is nothing but sequel to tho
fluctuating attitude of Greece. The
Entente does not show a very friend
ly feeling towards Greece. The fault
Of the Entente is that 1t thought too
late Of the danger presented by the
presence Of the consuls and their
staff, who perhaps already have seen
too much"
Berlin newspapers express indig-
nation at the arrests and declare
that the time has come for an I'M
mediate advance against the Allies
forces to avenge this affront.
