Greeks Warn Allies
Against Constantine
Hellenic Congress in Paris
Urges Expulsion of Entire
ROYAL Family

Paris, May 2.-The Congress Of Hell
lenic Colonies, representing the most
influential Greeks resident in France,
England, the United States and all
parts OF the world, at a meeting in
Paris have decided to issue declara-
tion TO France, England and Russia,
the powers protecting Greece. that they
are convinced King Constantine by his
unconcealed pro-German policy is hur-
rying Greece to certain ruin. The con-
gress places entire confidence in the
NeRizelos government.
The declaration accuses the princes
Of the Greek royal family Of visiting
London. Paris, Petrograd and Berlin
for the purpose Of intriguing against
the national government of Greece and
quotes the words of the heir apparent,
Prince George, TO his regiment on the
eve of the Athenian Vespers: Don't
leave a single Frcnchman alive on
Greek soil"
The declaration demands the eXpul-
sion Of King Constantine and all his
dynasty, and recognition OF thc Hell
lenic republic.

London, May King George has
signed a proclamation exhorting the
! eople TO lessen their consumption Of
wheat and to practise the greatest
economy and frugality in the use OF all
otker kinds Of grain. The proclama-
ton urges the population TO reduce the
ccpsumption of bread by at least one
Forith.
The Kings food proclamation is al
most identical with one issued by
George III in December, 1900, the main
difference being that the older procla
nation called upon the people to re-
duce the consumption of bread by at
least one-third, instead Of one-fourth.
George HIS appeal, moreover, was is
sued in response TO a request by Par
lament.
The proclamation follows:

Hope Edison Will
Find Way to Cope
With Submarines
officials Believe Inventor Is
About to Hit Upon Method
of Defence
By STEVENSON II. EVANS

Washing on, May 2-lt Is hardly
possible 10 describe how seriously Brit
ish and French officials here regard the
growing menace under sea. They have
communicated the gravity Of their
fears 20 American officials. and to-day
for the first time there appeared TO be
q concerted effort in governmental cir
cies 10 convey 10 the country through
the newspapers the deadly peril which
awaits the United States unless some
means is found TO stop the submarines
Present methods will not suffice. 1t
will be long time before the ship
wards of this country and the allied ma
tiOns are able to turn out tonnage
equal to the amount now being de
stroyed
Il has been said before that Thomas
4. Edison is hard at work TO find a
means OF thwRrting the torpedo. But
Secretary Daniels, while frankly admit
ing this afternoon that up 70 now the
submarines has won, indicated high
hope of something 10 come out of Edi-
sons WORK. The great inventor has
seventy-fve experts working with him.
Secretary Lane, who, Of all govern
menU officials. comes most in contact
with inventors. is hopeful OF hndlng
new way 10 get the submarine. Many
schemes have been tried. All so far
have failed. But there is a feeling
mere that we are on the verge of find
ing the way. and that the country
which invented the submarine must be
the country 20 make the deadly weapon
powerless.
But for the present the getting Of
ships quickly has become the para
mount question. II is generally agreed
that the speed with which the United
States turns out the small wooden ships
is the one element which surely meet
the immediate crisis.
The effect of the recent submarine
successes on Englishmen here, as re-
vesled in the conferences which are
being held constantly about shipping
questions. has convinced American Off
Gals that Ftgland had hardly appreci-
ated the full menace of the U-boat
England I'D to now has failed 10 adopt
emergency construction methods.

Delaware River Yards
Building 200 Vessels

Philadelphia, May 2.-The Delaware
River, between Philadelphia and Will
mington, IS said 10 be the greatest
shipbuilding centre in the world,
wrestling the title from all other coun-
tries, including, it is believed, Ger
many. The builders in Philadelphia,
Camden, Gloucester, Chester, Whining
ton and other towns are at work on 200
ships. both for war and Americas mer-
chant marine, many of giant size. Their
total value is estimated at close TO
5000. 600. .O0O, and the tonnage is over
million. Approximately 10000 men
are employed.

one vessels; the New York Shlpbulld-
ing Comnsny. twenty-nine; the Penn

Harlan & Hollingsworth, fifteen. and
The Chester Shipbuilding Company,
