GREEKS REMAIN
ONLY OBSTACLE

! ConStantlnople, Oct. 3-Ihe Muda-
MIA conference has achieved remark
able results as it solved the difficult
ties of the near east. Official an
nouncement of the signing of the pro-
tocol for the return Of Thrace to the
Turks and is coinc;dent with the an
nouncement that the Turks withdraw
from the neutral zone. The way has
been paved for the final conference
at which Mustapha kemal and the
Allied leaders will agree on the def
mite disposition of the disputed terri
tory. The threat of the holy war has
been removed. When this became
known at the secret parley at Muda-
MIA the Turkish representatives be-
came conciiatory and have accepted
to have their troops withdraw from
the neutral zone. The Turks have
agreed not to occupy Thrace until tho
final conference. The Allies will &C.
cupy Thrace and will request that the
Greeks withdraw from Thrace and
will be kept in control until per-
manent Turkish government can be
set up. 1t is estimated that will take
a month. The only stumbling block
that is apparent is the Greeks refusal
TO permit the occupation Of Thrace by
the Turks. Altho Venezelos at Lon
don and certain Influential leaders in
Athens have accepted the premise
that the Greeks Immediately eyacuate
Thrace. The whole country of Greece
has been swept by patriotic fervor
and many Of the Greek extremists are
in arms with the battle cry to fight
to the last man, to retain the present
holdings of Greece and not to permit
the return of the Turks to Europe.
| Turkish cavalry have just entered
the city of Cangara just outside of
lsmid an the neutral zone. The move
is regarded with alarm here and is a
serious menace to Constantinople. 1t
is considered here that Mustapha ke-
NAL ordered the move to intimidate
the Allies.
! Athens, Greece, Oct. 5-The torch
of war was carried thru the streets to-
day as volunteers of classes of Greeks
crowded the recruiting places in ans
wer to the call to arms to fight to
retain Thrace for the Greeks. Indig-
nation ran high when it was reported
that the Mudania conference has de-
cided to have the Greeks eyacuate
Thrace and turn it over to the Turks.
The report said that Mustapha kemal
has again started the hurried conscrip
ton of troops in Asia Minor. 1t was
also reported that Venzelos today had
counseled the Greeks not to evacuate
Thrace altho their reports were not
confirmed.

general trend has been toward a de-
crease OF alcoholic cases. There has
been a decided decrease OF alcoholic

this seems to be more Of q Consolation

Also. 1T is believed that under this
treaty nations can build heavily ar
nlored coast defense ships Of 10000 tons

eight inch guns.
Measurement Of Tonnage.
A most important clause Is that rela-
tive to the measurement OF tonnage.
Formerly every nation took q different
measurement Of its ships, and IN almost
evsry case the exact measurement was
secret. due to the fact that It is better
to have an enemy believe what you wish
him to believe than to have him know

With the lowest mortality figures

doctors and hygiene experts are closely

Most health authorities concur IN
the opinion that two years form q
