Of revenge against an unfriendly
neighbor who holds territory most

round greater Greece-Jugo-Slavs,

The Smyrna settlement was
compromise. The population of the
town is overwhelmingly Greek, but
with its port is the gateway to Asia,
indispensable to the commerce Of
every nation and priced beyond
measure by the Turks. To hand 1t

1t was therefore decided to give
the Greeks Smyrna local autonomy

guarantees of the freedom of the

"And you cannot have that foun-

SCIENCE ON VERGE
OF BIG DISCOVERY
Greater Greece Comes
Into Being Without

Famous British Chemist

LONDON. = At any moment in
some quiet laboratory may be re.
vealed secret of nature which will
transform all the conditions of mans
being, and so visibly divide the past
from the future that later genera
tions may say: cat this point hui
man history was bisected and our
day began"
While this prodigious potentiality
is known to exist in matter, no ef-
fort to form some general concep-
ton of the results expected appears
to have yet been made.
Yet these results beggar magma
ton and transcend experience. Coal
fields and oil wells will become SUI
prfluities, and all conditions of
transport will be revolutionized. A
motive power-enormous, illimitable
and costing nothing save for such
apparatus as may be required-will
be placed at the service of an as
tonished world.
The chosen mode of movement
will be made through the air, and
there speeds will naturally bs reach
ed exceeding any present thought Of
possibility, and the practical limita-
ton will be marked only by the point
at which swiftness of movement
causes combustion.
This raises the question, "Will
man ever be able himself to navi-
gate, while still wearing the vesture
of flesh the CULTS intervening be-
tween the units Of the solar sys-
tenn" The reply is that when atom
ic energy is at last made disable there
would seem to be no valid reason to
reject the thought.
Taking the moons distance las
averaging roughly 100000 miles,
the passage thither at speed, say,
Of one mile per secondhand we can
not imagine that Ander such condi-
tions 1t could be less-would not be
more than sixty hours.
Again taking roughly, the distance
Of Mars from US as averaging 80
900, 900 miles, the time needed to
cross that distance at the speed
named would be little under one
year-about as long as the period
by Give in his first visit
to India.
