church festival | watched the town council
lors follow him round the cathedral carrying
candles in their hands and wearing red sasnes
round their stomachs. They VIGOROUSLY dis
liked ard despised him, but they dared not
let their feelings be seen.
And as they dominate social, so the priests
seek 10 dominate political life. Monks, friars
and lay priests are active advocates for Ger
many. Lately there have been one or two
signs that the authorities are permitting
difference of opinion. But in general the
clergy have done their best to injure and
misrepresent the Allied cause.
The reasons for this are not hard to find.
There is the strong disposition OF churches TO
ally themselves with despotism. There is
the fear of the "modernizing" tendencies OF
France and England. There is the destation
against France for driving out the religious
orders There is the belief that Germany
would support the restoration of Carlist to
the throne, which would, so the clergy be-
lieve, give them more power still And then
there is the vague talk circulated by German
agents about the restoration of the temporal
sovereignty of the Pope.

Liberating the
Christian Races

In the course of three years the work OF
restoration and reorganization had made such
progress as to permit the formation of an
alliance with Bulgaria and Serbia for the pur-
pose of lberatng the Christian races of the
Balkan Peninsula from the Turkish yoke.
At the beginning of the present war, few
days before the battle of the Marine, Nenizelos
offered the cooperation of Greece to the cause
Of the Allies. Sir Edward Grey, the British
Foreign Minister, replied that the interests
of the Entente required that the war should
not extend to the Balkans. A few months
later Sir Edward Grey asked for the coopera-
ton of the Greek army and navy in the Ill
conceived Dardanelles campaign.
Venizelos accepted the invitation, but King
Constantine and the General Staff insisted
that the Dardanelles were practically impreg-
nable A plan of campaign against Con-
stantinople, drawn by the Greek General Staff,
was submitted to the Allies instead II was
rejected, and Greece remained neutral. Ven
izelos, insisting that Greece should take part
in the war. was ousted from power. From
that time dates the lamentabe division of
public opinion in Greece that has brought the
country to the present state of absolute dis
ruption. In October, 1915, Venizeos having
been recalled to power, after victory over
the neutralists in elections that followed his
overthrow proposed the Intervention
Of Greece in behalf of the Allies
For a second time he was forced to resign.
Two months later new elections took place,
from which Mr.. Venizelos and his party abb
stained, declaring that the King had no right
to dissolve the Parliament and to proclaim
rev elections at time when 100000 of the
voters were under arms on account Of the
general mobilization of the Greek army. For
almost year afterward Nenizelos while
criticisng the Kings policy maintained a
loyal attitude, avoiding the encouragement Of

have formed the conclusion that the evils

Fire." without summoning the fire brigade.
We must have a positive and constructive
scheme for curing our underlying ills. The
medicine, am convinced, is science Nearly
all the evils of our daily life spring from the
absence of science. If we cleanse
Russia physically and intellectually our
anarchy will cease.
Those are the ideas underlying my new
movement, ideas which led to the foundation
of the Free Association for Development and
Dissemination of the Positive Sciences. The
association will widen existing achievements

adopted it from a suggestion made some
years ago by Wilhelm OSWALD, the great
German scientist. But to Gorky belongs
the credit and honor for making an actual
attempt at its realization. This weeks
news from Petrograd contained the inter-
esting information that Gorky was leading
a movement for "the universal application
of science to practical life
About year ago Gorky, who is an I'M
compromising opponent of all war, wrote
the following article for Stockholm
publication, in which he expressed his be-
lief that the time was ripe for the execu-
ton of Ostwalds idea. He said:
IA soon as the European nations end thelr
present criminal activities. safe and solid
ground for common work in behalf OF the
world will be found by them. The great
minds of the neutral countries could ever
now begin the work of reorganzing European
civilization, they could start campaign
against a return TO barbarism. Several years
ago Wilhelm OSWALD suggested a union o.
the great minds of the world. He pointed
out the necessity for such 'world-brain,'

this characteristic message to the fallen
monarch:

The Berlin "Lokal-Anzeiger" said
The news indicates the final chapter in one
Of the moving tragedies of the world war.
This is not tragedy with single hero; this
is the story of the ravshment OF a whole
people. and in vain will one search history
for parallel.
II is plain az sunlight that Constantine laid
heart to deliver up his people to starvation
at the command of England and France. Rus
STA and Italy appear to have been pushed
aside in the recent Entente undertaking. The
newly created and extraordinary envoy JON
mart has forced the King to abdicate. under
pain Of the confscation of the harvest Of
Thessaly. Because the King was deprived
through thumbscrew methods Of every
weapon with which he might affect his escape
from such a prcdicament he was forced to
decide to give up his throne.
The "Tageblatt" wrote:
II for the moment Constantine was forced
TO retreat in the face Of overpowering oppo-
sition, n source of comfort left TO him, out
side the consciousness Of duty well done, is
the knowledge that the new turn Of things
has disposed Of his worst enemy, the man
who has been opposing him in his own coun-
try.

VeniZelOS

r ESS than two years ago King Con-
stantine of Greece dismissed his
Premier, Eleutherios Venizelos. Ten
days ago the King was ousted as the result
of the efforts of Venizelos.
To-day the figure towering above all
others in Greece is that Of Venizelos. The
eyes of the entire world are turned upon
him, and every word or step of his is
watched and recorded. If Greece becomes
a republic, Venizelos will be its President.
He is fit for greater tasks. His is the
mind of a truly great statesman. He saw
and understood the issues of the great war
before their meaning became clear even
to the leaders of the worlds first class
powers. He led the Greek democracy in
revolt against their pro-German King, and
trumphed.
The story of Venizeos was told by Mil
itiades Christophides, Greek journalist,
in "The American Review of Reviews" for
November, 1916. Parts of this account
follow:
Born in small village on the Island OF
Crete in the year 1864 Venizelos received his
preliminary education. in the schools of his
native island, after which he studied law in
the University of Athens. He is lawyer Of

and many other facts Of to-day utopian. The
properties of radium remind us of the "phi-
losopher's stone" the dream of the alchemists.
Are not all these the attainments of science?
These miracles of science are the products
Of the human mind, the results Of the iron
will Of man Why could not the same mind,
the same will, work miracles on the field of
social and nationalistc relations?
The Russian revolution afforded Gorky
the opportunity he had been looking for.
Soon after the upheaval of last March
he plunged most actively in politics, found
ing an extremist daily paper, the "New
Life" As a result of hard work, how
ever, he had a return of his old lung
trouble short time ago He therefore
decided to abandon politics and devote
himself to cultural activities. He laid the
foundation of union of the big brains
Ct the world by starting an association for
the development and dissemination in
Russia of the positive sciences, planning
to create out of it "a pan-scientitic in
stitution which has no parallel anywhere
