JoNNART is PRAISED.
The vigor with which the French
senator, M. Jonnart, on special mis-.
sion to Athens as the representative
Of Frence, Great Britain and Russia,

the Greek problem has caused the live
Hest satisfaction here. Before he sail.

tained absolute authority to act as he
considered best. The action in grant
ing such authority was endorsed by
the Russian government.
Senator Jonnart's high character
and abilities, his fine record as a
diplomat and administrator, and the
free hand given him led French opin.
Ion to expect effective action. but that

That he will succeed in helping Greece
to get on her feet again in the short
est possible time. notwithstanding
many difficulties which still remain, is
the unanimous opinion.
The saloniN expedition had been at

but everyone is agreed that the force
once there ought to be given every op.
portunity to accomplish its purpose
1t was admitted that with the per.
petual menace Of stab in the back
from the Greek royalist army the ex.
peditionary force was doomed to par.
tial inaction.
