MORE trouble looms for Greece.
lNl Last week the military court
martial In Athens found guilty a num-
Der Of those accused of conspiracy to
commit high treason In connection
with the defeat of the Greek armies
by the Turks. and six Of them were
condemned to death. These were for
mer Premiers Gounaris. Stratos and
Protopapadakis: former Cabinet Mem
bers Baltazzi and Theotokis and Gen.
eral Hadjanestis, who commanded the
Asia Minor armies. General Stratigos
and Admiral Goudas were condemned
to life Imprisonment. Great Britain,
through Minister F. o. Lindley. was
quick to protest against the carrying
out Of the death sentences, but the
Greeks ignored this and within a few
hours the six were lined up and shot.
Minister Llndley at once notified the
Greek government that Great Britain
had broken OF relations with II and he
departed for Lausan ne to confer with
Lord Curzon. the British foreign minis
ter. Just why the British felt II their
duty to pursue this course was not re-
vealed In the dispatches. but a good
guess Is that they were glad to find
this opportunity to sever a relation
ship that had become exceedingly irk-
some and that had brought on them
little but abuse and ridicule. Now they
are able to quit Greece with gesture.
Of righteousness But the results for
Greece are likely to be very serious, for
Great Britain has been her financial
mainstay and II she cannot form other
close friendships she may find herself
practically isolated. At this writing
no other nation has followed the lead
Of Britain. but II was said In Washing
ton that the incident might cause the
indefinite postponement Of recognition

EXACTLY what is going on In the
II Lausanne conference Is being
carefully concealed. the official COM
munlques being brief statements from
which the important facts are all omit
ted. The correspondents. reduced to
conjecture. send out many stories Of
dissension. and there Is good reason to
believe some Of these are based on
truth. II Is certain that the two COM
mittees handling the questions Of the
frontiers OF Turkey and the possession
Of the Mosul oil fields are making lit
tie progress. The Turks. refusing to
recognize the Mudros armistice OF
1918. decline to accept responsibility
for the cost Of maintaining allied
troops iD Constantinople. which some
weeks ago reached a total Of half a
billion dollars. They also insist they
are the owners Of the Mosul oil fields.
which are In the Mesopotamian terri
tory inundated to Britain. This oil
question is perhaps the most trouble
some one the conference has to deal
with. II Is reported the English may
finally consent TO throw over Feisal
and his kingdom Of Iraq and let Tur-
key have the territory, provided they
are assured Of concessions for the de-
velopment Of the oil fields. Several
other European nations claim a share,
however, and Americans have large In
terests in the region, which Messrs.
Child and Grew are trying TO safe
guard by insisting on the open door.
The Angora government seems rather
partial to the Americans in this mat
ter. II also Is DESTROYS that the Amer
lean schools and colleges shall continue
in operation In Turkey.
Eastern Thrace and Adrianople have
been turned over to the Turks and
they are with difficulty being held back
from crossing the Martha river and
selling Karagatch. which they claim
because II is the terminus Of the rail-
road from COnstantinople The Greeks
have two army corps posted along the
western bank OF the river.

L ly the one delivered In Chicago last
week. NJ. Clemenceau insists that.
although France does not desire to
crush Germany. she has the best OF
reason to fear another attack on her
by the Germans when. through alliance
with soviet Russia and Turkey. they
think themselves powerful enough TO
seek revenge. He called attention to
45 grave violations by Germany OF the
disarmament provisions Of the treaty
discovered by the allied authorities,
mainly In the form Of large hidden
stores Of war material. Clemenceau
charged that Germany. In her efforts
to evade her responsibilities, had bank
rupted herself Intentionally to keep
from paying France; that the average
tax In Germany is only Sl4 in contrast
to an average Of s45 in France. He
denied again and again and at length
that France Is militaristic.
