Mudania conference in behalf OF
Greece, arrived at Mudania on.

General Harrington, conmander-in-

with the military Questions in the ne
gotiations as he deems best. a free
hand having been given him by his
government in these matters Subjects
Of a political or economic nature will
be referred to the allied high COM
missioners, who will communicate
with their governments. The COM
missioners will be in continuoue con-
tact with Mudania by wireless. 3
The allied ministers in Constan-
tinople are understood to have drawn
the attention OF the Greek government
troops in Thrace under control so as
to avoid the. possibility Of 3 conflict:
This was due to representations OF
the Angora government that the MO-

Serious Problems
One Of the most serious problems
lies in what is considered almost an
impossibility, namely, that Of evacu-
at;ng the Greek army from Thrace IN

problem lies in the Greek determine
