Now that it is certain Constantine has been re-
called to the Greek throne in spite of the opposition
of the people of the western Europe the Greeks are
fixing the skids by which they hope to get rid OF
him Yesterday the head Of the Greek church called
the holy synod and the lay council in session and
they dispatched an earnest appeal to Constantine
to abdicate in favor of his son. George who, by the
way was the choice of Venizelos for the dignity.
Constantine may quit If the allies really do shut off
the flow Of funds with which the Greek army has
been maintained. but it is safe bet that the poll
tcians who made his return possible will not per-
nit him do 1t until they have taken good care Of
their own little schemes. After that the demand
for the retirement of Tno is apt to become well nigh
unanimous

Making due allowance for the temptation Of a
reporter to make the most of any incident out of
the ordinary which might occur in the Supreme
Court room it is fair Inference that there really
was mild surprise when Justice McReynolds yester-
day began TO read opinion. the opening sentence
of which was: This is the tale of woman and
tive dogs" But. why not? The justices of the
highest court in the land human as the most
OF us. else they would not be where they are. 1t
takes real man to hold down that kind of respon-
sibinty. Most OF the delverances of the court, e%-
cept the purely perfuncory ones, are models of lit
erary skill and there is plenty of humor in the law,
as any one who dips occasionally into the intensely
interesting pages of the sprightly house organ is
sued by the West Publishing Company 1t is not the
law that is dull, but some OF the folks in it.

But congress probably does not

of political exigencv in connection with
their request that Tennessee be stricken
from the list of states which have rati.
fed the amendment. They suggested
that the secretary issue q new procla-

that was not possible.

the District Court Of Appeals a motion
to dismiss the appeal taken by Char'es
s. Fairchild for the American Constitu-
tional League from the decision of Dis

ton to prevent the proclamation Of the

Mr.. Colby said the object of the pro-
ceedings was to prevent that which al
ready had become a fact.
