T do not see why Birmingham peo- pie should kick because Saturday was disagreeable on account of the rain" says E. T. Smith.

F E x Greece Threatened by European Powers

by European Powers ~ REAT BRITAIN, France and VI Italy are playing the old im- perialistic game against Greece. With drawal of financial support and "even sterner measures" are threatened if Constantine is permitted to resume his throne.
 Constantine may or may not have been guilty of plotting against the al lies during the World war. The ques- ton now at issue is whether or not the Greek people shall be permitted to choose their own ruler. In the re- cent election they overwhelmingly re pudiated Venizelos and the allied poli- cies which he carried out during the war. Possibly they were ungrateful to a statesman who made the dream of a Greater Greece" come true and were shortsighted in favoring mon- arch suspected of sympathizing with the Hohenzollerns. If so, that is their own affair.
 Whatever one may think of the sit uation, it is evident that the policy of self determination, so far as Greece is concerned, is not indorsed by the great powers of Europe.
 Argentina the First Member
 to Quit League of Nations
 N RGENTINA'S withdrawal from A the League of Nations, just at this time, is most unfortunate. When the assembly met at Geneva in spirit of conciliation and mutual helpfulness hope was revived that the league would soon become what it's sponsors hoped it would be-a powerful factor in maintaining peace and settling in- ternational disputes.
 The action of Argentina might not be so important in itself, if it did not awaken old misgivings and strengthen the belief of league opponents that the time has not yet come when all the nations of the earth are ready to work for the common good. Argentina felt that shewas not being given proper consideration. She has taken course that may be followed by league mem. bers who have better reason to with draw.
 Although it is stated that no othel South American state proposes to fol low Argentinas example at present
 it cannot fail to have an unfavorabl,
 influence olf South America. In fact
 Argentina's protests were supported
 by the representatives of other Soutl
 American countries at Geneva, an evi
 dence of sympathy and approval tha
 may eventually lead to further de fections.
 There is only one way to make th' League of Nations an effective instru ment for peace and justice, and that i! for every member to "carry on," put ting aside prejudice, forgetting as fla, as may be selfish aims and endeavor ing not to be led into quarrels by ; too sensitive national honor. Jerusalem wants to borrow s150.ooo A mere trifle. Jerusalem should tr, to interest international financiers b, asking for 8 million or two. # j. j.
 Constantine harps on my people, Maybe they are his people. They don |
