RESULTS OF THE LIBERTY LOAN
CAMPAIGN.
(By Henry cIews, Financier)

(By Henry C1ews Financier)
The Liberty Loan proved gratifying success, 1t
being oversubscribed fully one-half having been
raised in New York. One Of ths most pleasing fea-
lures was that over two million subscribers are re
ported to have taken part, which is double the num-
Der attracted to the first loans of either Great
Britain or Germany Evidently there is no lack Of
patriotism in the country. The cause of~the hest
taton to freely subscribe at the start was that the
mass of people in the United States did not then
fully appreciate the vital issues at stake They have
only slowly realized that back of all surface and
minor issues stands one supreme fact; that the
struggle is prominently to preserve democracy
against autocracy; that the freedom won in 1776
was grayely menaced and that sefprotection really
forced Us into the contest not to mention the die
tates OF humanity and our fundamental beliefs in
liberty and in advanced civilization. We have been
30 isolated from European affairs, 80 wrapped up
in our own interests, so free from injury pain,
30 confident OF our safety, satisfied with our own
progress and 80 pleased with war profits that super
human efforts were necessary to overcome the solid
inertia which made it difficult to turn the rising
spirit Of patriotism into positive action This fact
was clearly demonstrated by earlier enthusiasm dis
played In the seaboard cities which are naturally in
closer touch with Europe and sensitive to it's
movements than the interior albeit the latter some
times oyerlooks to what an extent it is dependent
upon Europe as market for its products Time,
however, will work great changes in this respect,
especially when doings of the American army and
navy on the other side begin awaken latent enthu
siasm. President Wilson's eloquent Flag Day ad.
dress was an effective appeal to American patriot
ism and sefinterest that will have wide and bene
cial effect Within few months the new spirit will
have swept across the continent, welding the whole
country together in its determination to push the
struggle with all possible vgor to victorious con.

eREEcE's NEW GOVERNMENT.

The Venizelists are back in the saddle in Greece,
or rather one should say in the saddle instead Of
merely on the horses back trying to GUST the king
from his position. .,.sz =, S
Recent dispatches from Athens outline the new
government program as follows: 81. j. =
The plan adopted at Saloniki, between Venizelos
and Senator Jonnart Of France, for the reunion Of
Greece, is roughly as follows The cabinet is to be
reconstructed by the inclusion of Venizests to pre-
side over the ministries Of the interior justice and
the army.
The chief of police and officers, who after the
events Of December 1916, were imprisoned and who
on their release went to Saloniki notably Marou.
das chief Of the secret police, in way supporter
fof the Allied cause-will be reappointed to their
former posts. Some 400 Cretan gendarmes will
form the bulk Of the police force a number Of
army officers of the SaloniH force are waiting at
Saamis to take over duties at Athens akin to those
Of the higher police officers I.
In cabinet council the government decided to
form COMMITTEES of four-two representatives Of
the Athens government and two of the provisional
government at Saloniki to recommend methods for
reorganizing unified Greece. An amnesty for poll
teal offenders the representation of Greece abroad
the inclusion of Venzeists in the Zaimis ministry
and the summoning Of the chamber are among the
matters which will be dealt with By the committee:
Repoulis viii be one Of the two Venizelist members
The new king is unwilling to take up the full d1-
ties Of state till his position is assured 1t seems
clear that only by vote of the national assembly,
which the chamber will convoke, can the king efin-
itely be seated on the throne.
In the meantime the disposition to regard King
Constantine as a martyrsis lessening, both In his
own country and aboard. It is significant that the
most fearless newspaper writer in Germany Max
milan Harden, has come out openly in declaration
that Constantine broke faith with the Allied Pow.
ers Harden justifes the action OF the Entente
group in taking control of Greece, as follows:
England, France and Russia stand firmly on
their treaty rights According to the eighth article
Of the treaty of 1880 they may if alone, even with
the consent of the Greek state, send troops to
that territory. That they have done.
4 'The king, who against the recognizable will 81
the people, disobeyed the chamber, who dismissed
the cabinet of Venizelos, notwithstanding it's un
