The March
of EUents

and Italy are going to stop the
Greek offensive against the Ana
tolian Turks.
The whole affair shows the shift
ing nature of diplomatic policies in
the Near East-if they can be called
policies.
First, the British encouraged the
Greek offensive in order to draw the
Turks away from a threatened ad-
vance on Constantinople. The
French and Italian diplomats, on the
other hand, secretly encouraged the
Turks to resist. Italy being averse
to strengthening Greece, with whom
she has differences of her own, and
France looking for means to main
tain her old prestige with the Turks
and relieve her difficult situation in,
Cilicia.
Now the three are ostensibly united
to make Constantine call off his Of
fensive, but there is much reason to
believe that the French are thorough
ly displeased with the tightening of
England's grip on Constantinople
and the Straits, and that they will
eventually encourage the Turks to
demand possession of their ancient
capital. Such a move would again,
in all probability, lead England to
encourage the Greeks to move
against the Turks in Anatolia.
The mere fact that men die and
women and children suffer horribly
as a result of these manoeuvres does
not seem to weigh anything in the
calculations of this abominable thing
called secret diplomacy-the thing
which we were told our participation
in the war against Germany would
end forever.
The general strike in India is as
suming remarkable and formidable
proportions. Unlike labor strikes in
our own and European countries,
this cessation of labor in India is
both patriotic and religious in its
inception, and has nothing at all to
do with wages or any other economic
factor.
Led by Ghandi, quite the most re-
markable man in Asia, the Indians
are everywhere ceasing to labor in
town and country, and as India is
peculiarly an agricultural nation,
the result will be an enormous short
age in food crops for home consump-
ton and the practical destruction of
the export trade.
The Indians are determined to
make their, country so unproductive
that the British can make no profit
in ruling and exploiting it--and they
are surely providing the world with
a wonderful spectacle of unity and
sacrifice.
Clemenceau told an American
guest not long ago that his visit to
India had convinced him that Eng
land would lose that country. The
Tiger is not in love with anything
English, in India or out of it, but
he is shrewd and knowing old
practical politician, and if he thinks
India is lost to England it probably
is.
The propaganda of Ghandi is pure
ly pacific, but wholly Asiatic. He
wants India to- lose every trace of
Western influence and to return to
the customs, teachings and beliefs
of its ancient civilization.
That might be possible for time
Say, while Ghandi lives. But with
Japan hungry for possession of In
dia, and with the Russian Bolsheviki
armies ready at any moment to- de-
scend upon India through Afghanis-
tan, and with the immemorial racial

that he had heard something unus-

Eddie was anxious to prove he

FIVE minutes more, they did not hear

he whispered. A chill ran up and

Regarding the need for the nurses
nome the Commissioners say:
The nurses and other employees of
the hospital now have to sleep in the
hospital building proper and it is ex-
ceedingly desirable that there should
be a separate building for them to
live in. 1t is proposed to erect a two
story building which will provide ac-
commodations for fourteen nurses
dHu tHTce OT louT uOClOFSs containing
necessary dining room, kitchen, etc.
The erection of such a home would
make available for the care of addi-
tional patients sixteen rooms in the
hospital building which are very
much needed. Frequently there is a
waiting list of patients seeking ad-
mission. These small rooms that
would be vacated by the nurses are
very much desired for the isolation
Of some of the more serious cases
that must be cared for in the large
wards. Hereafter patients may be
admitted to the tuberculosis Hospital
for care and treatments at such rates
and under such regulations as may
be established by the Commissioners
of the District Of Columbia; and all
moneys received from this source
shall be credited to the current ap-
preparation for maintenance of said
