From the standpoint Of the inter

vantage of allowing the Turks to oc-
cupy both sides of the Dardanelles

victory and by fiattering treatment
from the powers. be any different in
the future, and will the neutrality OF

Europe, be assured thereby? |
scarcely think so. What about the
British dead at Galipoli. who gave
their lives in the war against Tur-
key? Do these dead mean nothing o
England as she hands over Asia
Minor and Tharce to the Turkey
which slew the men of her domin-
ions? What about the 100000 Chris
tians who have persisted or been
mastered in Asia Minor by the

And now. about Nenizelos. He

men conducting great affairs must
sti1e personal considerations and
work together for the common
good If the Grecian people want
Nenize los: if they elect him to par

! predominant party, l see no reason
why he should not become premier.
Under our constitutional system,
would have to call upon him. and |
would do so. But NcniZelos must
recognize the existing government
