chief counsel for the Baltimore &,
Ohio Railroad CO., says farewell5to
the readers Of his weekly newspa-
per, the Hampshire Review. in the
currcEt issue of that paper after
thirty-two years service as editor
In reply to some criticism of his
friends, Mr. Cornwell says that he
accepted the position as B. & o.
counsel because it was difficult for
him tc be content with comparative
inactivity after four years spent
in the midst OF things as governor
.of$West Virginia. He also expressed
a high regard for Daniel Willard,
president Of the company and de-
clared he was anxious to be asso-
ciated with him and his staff Mr.
Cornwell will continue to live in
Romney, he says, although much OF
his time will of necessity be spent in
Baltimore.

Bolshevist Radiance First

When the economic conference
meets at Genoa, if some Of Lenine's
hired men are there and American
delegates are also there. the latter
might we'll paste on their desks the
following from the pen Of Secretary
Hughes:
an fact, the devastation Of indus
try in Russia has been so complete,
the poverty Of the country is so
the demand for commodities is so
great that at present Russia repre-
sents gigantic economic vacuum,
and no evidence exists that tho un-
fortunate situation above described
is likely to be allcviated so long as
the present political and economic
system continues"
AS Judge Parker, Of the Civic
Federation, remarks, the vital part
of this declaration Is it's concluding
words: $50 long as the present po-
litical and economic system" of Rus
sia Continues" it is idle to talk of
getting Russia on her feet Pouring
in millions won't help, for Bolshe-
vism is Of that quality that it
starves Russia faster than she can
be fed, can destroy more in a week
than can be restored in a year. Of
all the counsels Of folly, that which
is the most astounding is that credit
and trade can be made to grow in
an economic vacuum.
"Recognition" amounts to little in
itself, but it amounts to much when
it is an influence making for q
continuance of an era of star
walton in Russia. The reception of
delegates at Genoa is deemed by Le-
nine as helpful to his tyranny, and
as to this the weight Of opinion
seems to be that he is right.

to promote industrial peace and
increase production.
The injunction the garment max
ers asked, if put into effect and
sustained by the higher courts,
would have resulted in the annihila-
tion Of the unions. Denied the right
even to assemble, forbidden to COL
lect dues or to help fellow workmen
when out Of employment, the union
as an economic unit could not exist.
1t appears from the news Of yes
terday that this injunction was not
actually issued, as at first reported.
Mr.. Untermyer has offered his serv-
ices to the striking garment workers
to fight it in the courts if it is issued.
1t is to be hoped, in the interests
Of peace and better understanding
between employers and employed,
that he will not find it necessary to
make the fight.

The Obstacle

Johannes Gennadius, Greek Min
lister to this country on special
mission, fcclingly recalled in Wash
ington the other day the pro-Hcllenic
enthusiasm of the United States in
the days Of the Greek war for in
dependence. 1t is true that Webster,
Clay, DR.. Samuel Howe and many
other eminent Americans sympa-
thized deeply with the Greek effort
hundred years ago to throw Oft
the Turkish yoke. Americas heart
went out to the Greek liberators, as
it did afterward to Kossuth in
Hungary.
Why has that sort Of generous
support been withheld from Greece
in her recent efforts to conquer Asia
Minor? Mr.. Gennadius asks. And
he says that he was sent here ex-
pressly to ask that question. The
answer isn't difficult. If Greece has
lost American sympathy her own
people are to blame for it. They
tolerated during 1915, 1916 and part
of 1917 the rule Of monarch who re-
versed Greek policy in order to make
himself serviceable to his brother-in-
law, the German Kaiser. lie be-
came German tool and pawn and
worked secretly to carry Greece into
the Quadruplc Alliance. He subordi-
mated Greek interests to his per
sonal prejudices and attachments.
The Allies finally expelled him
and Greece came again through that
intervention into her natural rela-
ton with the Entente powers and
the forces Of civilization in Europe.
But after the peace treaties had
generously recognized Greece's be-
lated services her people turned
around and recalled Constantine.
The former silent partner of Bull
garia and Turkey, frowned upon by
the Allied governments, went to war
with the Turks on his own account
to establish a greater Greek empire
in Asia than had been promised to
Venizelos,
Americans cannot understand why
the Greeks should have wanted to
restore a king with Tino's record
and character, once they were we'll
rid Of him. So long as he is on the
throne it will be useless for Greek
statesmen to try to revive Ameri-
can interest in the fortunes of the
Greek government.
