GOVERNMENT TO take MILLS
Paper Manufacturers Not Satisfied
With Enormous Profits, Continue
to Boost High Prices.

Washington, June 13.-Aii paper
mills in the United States will be
placed under government control
during the war and a request made
that the Canadian government take
the same action if requests made to
the senate today by the Federal trade
commission are carried out.
The price of newspaper print, al
though high in 1916, has risen more
than fifty per cent since that date,
according to reports and all efforts
of arbitration to restore competitive
conditions have failed.
1t is estimated by the commission
that paper manufacturers during
1916 received over $17,500.000 in ex-
cess profits and that paper during
1917 will cost $S0,OOO,OOO more to
the consumers than last year.

GREECE IS NOW
WITH ALLIES
A5DlcATIoN OF KING coNsTAN-
TINE AS DEMANDED.
ALEXANDER is NEW RULER
Premier Announces Ex-King Will
Leave the Country With Crown
Prince Georse-Has Had a
Stormy Career.

| Athens, June 13.-King Constan.
tine of Greece has abdicated in fayo
Of his son, Prince Alexander.
| Alexander, the new king, Is the ser
ond son of the monarch who has jus
abdicated. The crown prince wa
Prince George, who was born Jul!
10, 1890.
Prince Alexander was born Aug. /
1893. He was a captain in the FRS
regiment Of artillery in the Greel
army.
Premier Zaimis today made the an
nouncement that Constantine had
designated Prince Alexander as his
successor. He also said that Con,
stantine and Crown Prince George
would leave the country.
Constantine has expressed the in
tention of embarking on a British
warship and proceeding to Switzer-
land by way of Italy.
Allied Troops Occupy EIassona.
Allied troops have occupied Elias
soma without resistance. There has
uCSh ~ uiooiuciS III AlueuS up W inc
present.
King Constantine's abdication was
the result of demand made by the
entente allies.
Since April there has been recur-
rent rumors that Constantine either
would be dethroned by the entente
powers or that he would abdicate in
favor of the Crown Prince. The
feeling against the king has been
aroused to such an extent that a
great demonstration was held in
Saloniki May 8, at which the crowds
cheered the speakers with shouts of
Long live Venizelos," Long live the
national government" and Down
with the king"
The mayor of Saloniki presided
and proposed a resolution proclaim
ing the deposition of Constantine but
the crowd insisted that the entire
dynasty should be removed.
Denied Enmity to Allies.
In the latter part of April the
Greek charge d'affaires at Washing
ton issued a long statement which
contained a message from King Con-
stantine categorically denying pub
lished reports tending to show that
Constantine had been hostile to the
allies or had expressed the hope of
the success of the aims of "one of
the belligerents, or to have expressed
himself in hostile fashion toward one
of the belligerents or had spoken in
any way, whatsoever, in the sense
of said opinion attributed to him."
The king also denied that he or his
government ever harbored hostile in
tentions of any kind toward the en-
tente.
Greece to be a Republic.
Abdication of Constantine of Greece
was regarded here today as a fore
runner of Grecial Republic with Ven-
izelos, former premier and Constan-
tines bitterest foe as president.
This step however will not be taken
Immediately. Instead of this govern
ment following the lead of her allies
she will recognize the new regime un-
der Constantine's second son Alexan-
der. Whether it will be possible actu-
ally to use Greek troops in aid to the
allies is problematical. In any event
the Greeksituation is such now that
the armies cannot harras the British
forces.
