THE meeting between President
Wilson and Venizelos, the Greek

T~HE meeting between President
Wilson and Venizelos, the Greek
Premier, il Of more than passing
Interest to the American world. Vcni-
aelos ID the one really great statesman
modern Greece has produced; his ser
vices, alike to the Balkans, to his own
country and TO the Allied nations, can
hardly be exaggerated; but for him
Greece would have fallen prey to Ger
man designs, and the recent deIiverancc
Of the Balkans, through the victory over
Bulgaria, would have been Impossible.
To the peace congress Greece comes
asking justice, denied to the Hellenes for
centuries. Some Of the Greek claims
will seem fantastic to the Western World,
but not few deserve the Endorsement
Of the American delegates AS for Veni-
zelos, no honor and no reward can pc
too great, measured alike by his personal
services to the cause Of freedom and to
the nobility and ability which all recog-
nizc in him.
OF the Greek claims the following is
perhaps fair statement: Greece asks
that her possession Of Northern Epirus,
recognized by the Allies at one stage OF
the war and then abolished through
Italian intervention, be restored; that
Italy surrender to her the Greek islands
of the archipelago and Rhodes. She asks
that she be permitted to annex the Greek
shores Of the Egean and the Sea Of
Marlnora, including the region about
Corstantinople, with that city; the coast
Of Bulgaria, as fixed after the Balkan
wars, together with Smyrna and the
Hellenic areas Of Western Asia Minor.
OF the Greek claim to Epirus, it must
be said at once that it is incontestable,
resting alike upon the will of the people
and upon the solid basis of language and
religion. Here the obstacle rises from
the Italian desire to hold wide hinter-
land behind Valona, which they mean to
transform into great naval base, guard
ing the entrance to the Adriatic Sea.
Certain restrictions as to military ques-
tions Italy might logically demand, but
Epirus is Greek, not Albanian; was in
cluded in the ridiculous state of Albania
only at Italy's urgings, and belongs with
in the Greek monarchy, since it has been
the cradle Of Greek spirit in past CEN
turies.
Exactly the same thing is 30 be said
with even greater emphasis as to the
islands. They have always been Hellenic

guage, sympathy and race They fell to
Italy as result Of her successful war
with Turkey in 1912, but it was agreed
in the Treaty Of Lausanne, which closed
that struggle, that they should be evacu-
ated when Turkey complied with certain
requirements as to Tripol The sAllies
can compel such compliance now, and
Italy can we'll afford to initiate the
