city under Greek military occupation.
The Turkish shop.keepers and traders
never were SO prosperous. The Creeks
have decorated every store with a
Greek sign, whether che owner Do
Greek, Turk or Armenian.
The Hellenic army commanders
have ordered their men to cultivate
the friendship OF the Turkish popu.

tied commercially from the presence
of t,le army, their strong sense of
patriotism and nationalism would
rather see the Greeks driven out. For
by centuries OF history and associa-
tion Adrianople, once their capital, is
as dear TO them as Constantinople.
Except from a strategic point OF
view, Adrianople really is OF little
Importance. 1t Is a typical Turkish
CITY, with its narrow strets, open ba-
zaars, i'll smells, dirt and Incidence.
Its houses are OF wood, plaster and
mud, and give the impression that If
they are not soon burned up they will
fall down. There is muah poverty
and misery which American relief

American automobiles and motor
trucks, bearing Greek army officers
or supplies, rush through the muddy
streets. In the midst OF the hustle

coifee-drinking and day-dreaming.
Tie allies gave Greece a mandate

Russian Artists
Long For America

Moscow, June 7.-As Moscow's
opera and dramatic season approach
es it's close, scores of Russia's best
artists are turning their eyes long
ingly toward America. If the AM
erican State Department consents,
Madame Nieshdanova, premier So
prano of Russia; M. Sobinoff, Rus
sia's most noted tenor, and several
others of the Moscow Grand Opera
may appear in New York this fall.
Madame Nieshdanova,. coloratura
soprano who, with Chialiapin and
Sobinpff, formed an operate trio
which has won high praise in Russia,
already has permission of the Soviet
government to leave for abroad. She
has long been favorably known in
Russia, and although somewhat ad-
vanced in years, she still retains her
voice. Madame Nleshdanova sang
frequently with Caruso in Europe.
NJ. Rumanseff, administrative di-
rector of the Moscow Art Theatre, is
preparing to leave within short time
for New York to arrange there fol-
the presentation of several of the
Art Theatres most famous dramas.
