Paris, June T.-The Greeks refusal
to withhold hostilities and permit the
Allies a free hand in medattng with
Mustapha Kemal Pasha, Is regarded in
French official circles as an indication
that King Constantine Is aware Of the
Turks' preparations for an offensive
with Bolshevik endorsements and is
determined to strike before the Tnrk-
ish Nationalists become too strong.
Tho British are understood 20 be
eXNrting extreme pressure to delay the
Groek offensive and it is hoped that
Henri Franklin BOuillon will return 70
Paris from Angora with Kemal's pro-
posalS before warfare recommences.
The French are optimistic over the sit
uation If the British stand pat, ms
Greece is virtually bankrupt and would
bc unable to obtain munitions or sup
plies without the Allies financial aid.
The Allies policy for revision Of the
Sevros Treaty and their attitude re-
garding the Turks and Greeks largely Is
Influenced by A. E. Bedford, of the

trade agreements give preference in oil

Few Trains and Slow.
When / first went into Vienna in
the early spring of 1919 | rode in on
freight train from Trieste. The
train was carrying food and was
guarded by American sailors. 1t was
the only kind of train running from
that direction. The only other train
from any direction was a military
train from Paris through Vienna to
Warsaw three times week, which
was inaccessible TO any but officials
and persons willing to pay exorbitant
brides. Trains in every direction were
practically non-existent Railroad sta
tions were deserted. The long, empty
passenger platforms and untenanted
waiting rooms seemed like remnants
of civilization which had passed.
When a train ran semi-occasionally
from Vienna to Budapest the time of
transit was indefinite. The train
movements accorded with the vagaries
of the crew. Passengers simply took
a chance. They trusted themselves
TO the train much as they would to a
life raft, hoping for the best bur fear
ing the worst.
One train, recall, which left Buda-
pest took four days TO reach Vienna
1870 miles distant. 1t stopped on the
prairie, it halted at whistling posts,

Cows tiiqhIX Priced.

The cows of Periguex, France, which
serve not only as milk giyers. but as
draft animals, are highly priced by
their peasant owners, and nothing that
can add to the comfort of the valu-
able animals is neglected. They are
protected from the annoyance of
swarms of flies which infest that part
Of France by quaint hand-crocheted
yeils which cover the entire head and
hang down almost to the ground The
wells themselves are works of art, with
long silky fringes of varying hues. or
borders of crocheted lace. In schools
which are aided by the Junior Red
Cross of America, French children are
taught to crochet. and so can make
these useful wells.
