Venizelos and the Greek PEOPLE

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Mr.. Venizelos says there is no use
in another declaration of war against the
Central Powers, because he declared war once
upon time while in rebellion at Salonica.
But how many million Greeks recognized
the Salonica movement? The majority of the
Greek people want new general election to
choose the man to handle the country's af-
fairs. If Mr.. Vcnizelos wants a war between
Greece and the Central Powers he must
make new elechons to see If the Greek peo-
pie want him to take care of the countrys
affairs. Otherwise he stands on Greek soil
not because ne is popular among the people
but because the Anglo-French guns protect
him by having their mouths turned toward
the Acropolis. What goes on to-day in Greece
has never occurred in the history of the

Kitchen Economy
be Editor Of The Tribune

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: 1t seems to me, apropos Of the re-
cent Rogers-H s-HoovcrTribune food conserva-
tion bill, that, as the old Quaker told his
wife, "Everybody's queer but thee and me,
and thee's a lit:le queer"
Also it seems to me that the women who
bleat the loudest for the franchise consist
emily show their unftness to exercise it.
If there is anything more childish and silly
than Mrs. Rogers's you're another" style
of argument, haven't noticed it.
Of course, the food spectators are devil
ish and should be summarily dealt with, but
the most ordinary common sense should
suggest that, even from purely selfish
point of view, when a commodity of any sort
is scarce and high only foo-headed per-
son would feel justified in wasting it.
For years spectators have bought up the
fine apple and peach crops in our vicinity,
frequently allowing the fruit to rot on the
ground, while we were forced to pay high
prices for inferior fruit from a distance.
Such deliberate waste should be made a
criminal offence. However, If TO secure
peaches have to pay twice what they are
worth, is that a reason why | should pitch
them into the garbage can?
1t is a big and fine thing that the women
ere doing in trying to rescue supplies COM
ing into New York. Is it quite fair to at
tempt to nullify their efforts by Sticking on"
the housekeepers to be careless with all the
supplies they can get into their hands?
Early last winter l took absolute control
of our household supplies. AS two men,
bers of my family are on pretty strict
diet, could not materially alter my menu,
consequently we are living as well as we
ever did on practically the same food and
am keeping my food bills just about where
they were two years ago. If, considering
present prices, this does not indicate that
there was a wicked waste in my kitchen why,
then. there is no logic in me. If can save,
other housekeepers can and should, even
though the spectators do not get all their
claws cut lust this minute ULSTER.

Naval Items of No Importance

Grateful as American readers must be
for any authentic and unelaborated news
the censor suffers to pass about the move
ments of our naval forces in European
waters, it may be questioned whether all
the exploits dwelt upon so reverentlally by
certain correspondents abroad are heroical
enough to justify the pride they evidently
hope to stimulate.
1t is>pleasing to learn that the Ameri-
can sailor by his smartness and general
efficiency has made a good impression IN
foreign parts, and no doubt it is interest
ing to hear what it is that strikes the for
eigner most in his encounters with him.
If we were to believe some of the reports,
however, the one supreme distinction Of
our blueiacket is his wealth and his luxu-
rious way of living.
Thus, shortly after our destroyers
reached their base on the Irish coast we
were told of the envy aroused in the heart
of the mere British "matloe" by their
splendid way of living and of the amaze
ment of all the natives at the evidence OF
our mems great riches, as shown par
ticularly in their habit of travelling in
variably first class.
And now another correspondent tells
with pride how "Paris sees what Yankee
tar is" The tars in this case were rich
youths serving as able seamen and stokers
but renting limousines by the day instead
of using taxicabs"; and it is duly recorded
that at zone of the smartest restaurants
they "paid for six hundred-franc (S12O)
dinner with a thousand franc ($2OO) note
directing the waiter to split big tip with
the doorman who tried to keep them out.
All of which is very interesting; but as
this conception of American life is already
sufficiently common abroad are these Incl
dents really worth recording? Or do they
really contribute to the glory Of our men,

How to Get at Germany
The Right. Way Said To Be Through
the Balkans

Sir: The Tribune stated one day last week
hat Italy has a reserve army OF one million
men Comments have also been made as TO
the expediency of Japan offering cor being
requested to furnish an army and also ships
to patrol the Mediterranean and help ex-
terminate the submarines.
Il is the writer's opinion that the most
available method of getting at Germany
vitals has been through the Balkans. Inc
best opportunities have been wasted through
lack of coordination among the Allies, but
there is still good one if acted upon
promptly and with proper cooperation Had
Italy sent 100000 men up through Asia Minor
70 attack the Turks on the south when the
English were at Gallipoli the result might
have been far different. To-day, if Italy and
Japan are not at war with Turkey, they
would be fully justified in picking a quarrel
based upon the existing casus belli OF Tur-
keys fighting for and with the arch enemy.
With Greece now held in leash, permitting
the Macedonian army greater latitude, a
Japanese fleet in the Mediterranean to pro-
tect the transports, japanese, Italian or
an American army TO back up the British
in Mesopotamia and to march on CONSTANT
nople from the south and an active Russian
navy in the Black Sea might do wonders.
1t would cut off the German supplies from
Asia Minor, it would withdraw the Turkish
troops from the north to protect their capl-
tai, leaving the Bulgarans alone TO fight
Sarrail and the Serbians, who might have
their way cleared for a dash at Constanti-
rople from the west.
1t will take three years and five million
lives for either side to break through the
French Belgian lines. But here is chance
for strategy and open fighting, and possibly
for one Teddy. G. A. MILNE.

A Title for Women

No one seems to have quarrelled seri-
ously with the Order of Chivalry lately
instituted "in recognition of the manifold
services, voluntary and otherwise, that
have been rendered both by British sub
jects and their allies in connection with the
war" Though the multiplication of titles
of honor is not a manifest tendency of the
time, yet even those who are least in
clined to value such ornaments have taken
kindly to the proposed renewal of the
forgotten style Of Dame, doubtless because
it grants to women some sort of recogni-
tion Of their public services. "The word"
says one Liberal journal, "is interviewer
with all that is best and most durable il
the common life of the country, and at e
moment when serene highnesses take theii
leave of the field of British honors the
Dame may make her reentry with peculiar
fitness"
1t has been objected that Dame can
properly be applied only to matron, but
such pedantry is frivolous. AS title it
has long been obsolete, except in legal docu-
ments and among the more exalted men,
hers Of the Primrose League, and on re-
newal it can surely be turned to account
in whatever way is deemed best We look
cD Mrs. to-day as title peculiar to mar
ried women, but that is simply because
current custom gives it to them. In the
old days Mrs. was the style of any woman
Of mature years. In the seventeenth GEN.
tury it would have been uncivil to address
a grown spinster as Miss, and it was only
Mrs. began to be monopolized by wives
and widows; indeed, many spinsters con-
tinued to be called Mrs. for some time
after.
There are women to-day who would
gladly revive the old custom, dispensing
with a particular label designating them
as married. But, at any rate, there should
be no difficulty about Dame. 1t is one of
those titles that were allowed to become
meaningless-like Esquire-before it be-
came obsolete. "The Nobless (as the
French call them)," says Gwillim, "are all
Knights Ladies, who in all writings are
styled DANES; all Esquires' and Gentle
mems wives only Gentlewomen. The
third sort comprehends the Plebeians, and
ere commonly called Goodwives." Good
wives are obsolete, perhaps because their
plebeian husbands think themselves good
enough to be addressed as Esquires, but
Dame, except "in all writings" had be-
come shabby long before Gwillim's time.
Even in the sixteenth century the COM
plant was made that every poor woman
that hath either maid or apprentice Is
called Dame, and yet Dame is as much as
Domino, and used to ladies Of greatest ac-
count" If titles were ever worth reviving,
Dame undoubtedly is.

Clothes in War Time

People with lively imaginations have
predicted that the war, with all its radi-
cal changes in custom and tradition, may
even 20 so far as to bring about some ra-
tional transformation in the style of mems
clothing. 1t has been suggested that we
might come out of the war all wearing
kits. However, New York has had an
opportunity to admire a military body
wearing kits. 1t has found this form of
dress interesting, picturesque and little
audacious. 1t doubtless suspects that
kits may be more comfortable and eco
nomical than the corresponding portion
of customary masculine attire. But as yet
no tendency has been noticed among New
York men to adopt the kilt or make any
similar adventure in sans-culottism.
In the matter of dress the male citizen
Of this Republic is an uncompromising
conservative. Whatever else may change
the three-piece suit remains as unaltera-
BILE as the Constitution of the United
States. Trousers-that ugliest invention
of the early nineteenth century-have be-
come a sacred tradition. The sweltering
starched collar, which every one in his
heart abhors, is a ritual of respectability;
the waistcoat, sham and a nuisance,
continues TO oppress us even on the sui
triest July days. 1t is generally admit
ted that mans dress at present is neither
as beautiful nor as comfortable as that Of
classic times or Of the eighteenth century.
From the standpoint of common sense it
is fifty years behind the much criticised
present styles of woman's dress.
But custom has made towards of us ALL

Training Camps as Hospitals

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Why could not further use be made
Of the camps built as training quarters for
the army by turning them into semi-hospi-
tails or recuperating grounds for the physical
ly unfit? IL is a grave menace TO the future
population Of the United States TO have the
army regulations pick out the normal and
super-normal from the community and leave
behind, automatically rejected, the sub-nor-
NAL, the physically, mentally and morally
unfit. Could not some economy Of this waste
material be effected by using the training
camps as out-of-doors hospitals and draft
ing into them these sickly men who would
otherwise be left behind to spread their in
frmities? Rapid improvement in their phys
ical condition would undoubtedly follow
from an open air life, the discipline of
proper medical authority and removal Of
drugs and the customary forms of enter
tanment. II these men could be made at all
war-worthy, if their diseases could be
checked and their general condition built
up, the community as a whole would ines
timably benefit now, and especially in the
future, by sending them out into the
trenches to share the desperate task of stop
ping enemy bullets with the strongest and
finest man power Of the United States. 1t is
impossible to see the hordes of men that
hang out on street corners and infest Sum-
day excursion boats without thinking what
good first line material they would make. At
any rate, a premium should not be put on
their condition. DOROTHY F. HEROD.
