Tt would be difficult, in looking across the
worlds arena, to find man whose promise has
belied itself more completely than that of King
Constantine. A little more than four years ago
he succeeded his father, who had been struck
down by an assassin in the streets of Salonika,
with every prospect of an enduring popularity.
Europe, and, what was much more important to
him, Greece, seemed to have forgotten that i'll
starred and pathetic campaign of his more youth
full days, when the soldiers of Greece fled at the
first volley from the rifles of Edhem Pasha
troops, on the plains of Thessaly. It remembered
only that he had fought two brilliant and success
full campaigns, the first against the Turk and the
second against the Bulgar, with an army, it was
not too careful to recollect which Monsieur Vent
Zelos had created
1t was emotional, too, as nations not infre~
quently are, over his very name and loved to flat
ter itself with the hope that this Constantine
would win back for it the great city on the B)s-
phorus, which another Constantine had lost, to
the Ottoman, some four and half centuries be-
FORE
These hopes, these dreams were blasted by the
outbreak of the great war in Europe. In no.
ment it was seen that the king and his great min
lister were in opposite camps. Unfortunately the
king failed to recognize either the greatness of
his minister, the debt of the dynasty to him. It
is common weakness of princes to attribute all
their successes and all their popularity to- them
selves. King Constantine was the victim Of this
weakness to very remarkable extent.
AS consequence he began to manifest all The
foolish inability of the Bourbons. Three times
Nenizelos, in spite of all the pressure exerted by
the court and the army chiefs, won from the PEG
pie an Endorsement of his policy to enter the war
OH the side of the allies; and three times the king
ignored the verdict of the constituencies
Even when Serbia was attacked by Austria and
he was called upon to keep his word and fulfill his
treaty obligations, he remained obdurate. Worst
OF all, when Bulgaria threw off the mask marched
into Macedonia and seized the coveted Kavala, he
directed the Greek garrison to make no resistance
AS a result millions of drachmae worth of valll-
able stores and material were acquired by the Bull
CARS, and an entire Greek army corps was trans
ported to Germany. Growing more reckless, as
the allies failed to strike, he initiated reign of
terror against the Venizelists and went so far as
to permit the Athens mob to be melted to attack
the French guards in the city. At last Monsieur
Venizelos himself, desparing the situation, re-
tired to Salenika and began the enlistment of
national army.
1t is quite true that it is not Monsieur Venizeos
but the protecting powers of Greece, namely
France, Russia and the United Kingdom, who
have interviewed to demand the kings abdication
This Intervention would, however, obviously have
been impossible if the great minister had not only
quite recently finally repudiated the king and de-
cIared that the future of Greece demanded his alb
dcation or removal.

He always is present at loyalty meetings
And up on the platform he pays for a seat,

Since war gave him chances for cornering

Or mobile young jackies who sail on the foam,'
Then shoots up the price potatoes and rice
And other things needed abroad and at home;
He praises brave mothers who give their freely
