CONSTANTINOPLE, Oct. 16.
Thousands of Christians. many hungry
and with all their earthly belongings
packed on their backs, trudged out of
Thrace today, as the cross made way
for the Crescent.
Aged men and women, many carry
ing children, walked toward the Bal
kan peninsula leaving for ever the
homes that they have occupied for
years.
Many Leave All
Some loaded their household goods
in OK carts; others left everything be-
hind and fled in order to be out of
Thrace in Is days, the time limit set
by the allied generals and Turkish rep
resentatiVes at the Mudania confer
ence.
Most of the trains in Thrace have
been commandeered by the Greek gov
ernment to carry soldiers who will be
loaded on transports when they reach
the ports. The civilian population had
to depend on the rickety carts or
walk.
Rodosto, on the Balkan peninsula
was choked with refugees The suf-
fering and foodless Greeks and Armen-
ians awaited some means to carry
them to Greece
Little Relief Ahead
Little relief, it was believed, will
great the refugees when they arrived
in Greece. The food supply there is
very inadequate because of the thou
sands of refugees that are already de
pendent on the government and char.
table agencies for food.
Four British and three French bat
taiions were entering Thrace on the
heels of the departing Greeks.
When the last of the Greeks have
departed the allies will turn the terri
tory over to the 5000 Turkish Gen.
darmes.
The Turkish civil forces will hold
Thrace until after the final Near East.

LONDON, Oct. 16-The conservative
members of the government have been
summoned to meet today to decide
whether they shall continue their sup

The meeting which was called by Aus

government leader in the House OF

conservatives In tn cabinet, but also
the under-secretaries belonging to the
party.
1t is believed that Mr.. Chamber

but the attitude of several of the
others is regarded as more than doubt

The Chronicle says that notw1th

tains a great personal hold upon the
masses. The newspaper points proud

Mans minority on earth as COM
pared to women, a fact even before
! the war, has been increased by that
conflict until today it is estimated
there are 25,OOO,O 900 more women
than men in Europe alone.
official statistics published here
show that the surplus of women in
Europe has increased by 15,5OO, 600.
Before the war there We're 1,03S
women to every thousand men: now
the proportion is Iii to 1000. The
rising surplus has been most mark
ed in Russia where the number of
women has grown from 1,042 to L.
s99 for every 1000 men. This is on
the basis of figures for 80 govern
mcnts.
The situation has also been not
ably changed in Germany, Austria,

burg, France and Italy. In Germany
exclusive Of Upper Silesia, there are
l,l0o women TO every 1,OO0 men
whereas before the war there We're
about t.0eG. on the contrary, the
number or surplus women has de-
creased in Denmark, Norway. Swe-

IN outstanding feature of the situ-
alton is that girls Of marriageable
