- In a state of panic because of the
approaching occupation OF Eastern
Thrace by the Turks, Greek and Ar
menian Christians have been feeing
the country by the thousands since last
Saturday and every road Of the whole
territory toward the Karagatch bridge
across the Martha river is congested
with refugees. Although government
bulletins had been posted in Adrlano-
pie that the Turkish occupation could
not commence under fifteen days, the
people were not at all assured. They
began q rush out of the city with such
belongings as they could carry, and
soon the roads were filled with men,
women and children, some with OK
carts and other animal drawn vehicles;
but most Of them travelling on foot. a
drenching rain was falling over the
country and this made matters worse.
There was no other way for 1t than
that the roads would soon be choked
with the sick and exhausted and that
tmany would succomb to pneumonia
and other diseases. Observers who
circled the country in airplanes report
the same story from every direction, all
the roads filled with distressed streams
of humanity and all converging TO-
ward the same bridge, the idea beng
that once across the river they would
be in territory that would be neutral
at least until after the peace confer

rangements for great welcome to the
troops who We're coming from ASA
Minor to occupy Thrace. The city had
been plastered with photographs OF
Kemal and other decorations, and 1t
had been planned that the shop
keepers, clerks and everybody, would
take a day off in a big welcoming
procession. The British authorities
however, issued orders forbidding the
parade, and the navy stopped all
Turkish ships that were bringing
troops to the city. The British tool

bration were allowed it would result IN
disorders that might easily get beyond
control. Experienced soldiers who have

Thrace say that they have never

The British government crisis has
materialized at last, and David Lloyd
George, prime minister during the past
seven years, three years of war ana
,o,Ir wears of reconstruction, no less
trying than war, has placed his reslg-
nation in the hands of the king. The
government was composed of coall-
ton of the Liberal and Unionist
parties, with. less important parties
supporting on major issues. Disagree
merits have, been common all along;
but of late the opposition to the pre-
mier's policies have been more pro-
nounced especially among the Union
lists and the approach of crisis was
generally recognized. For some time
il has been a question as to whether
the government would resign now or
endeavor to hold over until the gen.
eral election a year hence; but the
matter was settled at a Unionist eau
Gus yesterday. The question was
whether the party would favor the
continuance of the coalition and appeal
to the general election to sustain its
course. The vote was 1856 to 81 IN
favor of dissolution, with the result
that the coalition government was
oyerthrown. Mr.. Lloyd George hav-
ing already received the designations
Of the other members of the cabinet,
rendered them to the king together with
his own. In accordance with custom
the retiring minister advised the king
to invite Mr.. Andrew Bonar Law, as
the head of numerically strongest op-
position party to form new cabinet.
Mr.. Law is a Unionist. His health is
not good and besides, because MS
party lacks considerable of being able
to command a majority, it is not eX-
pected that his government can be OF
long duration. Lloyd George continues
in office until the formation of the
new cabinet, and then will follow
kind of political chaos that will have
to develop a majority agreement on
common policy. To all appearances
Lloyd George is still head and
shoulders over any other leading
statesman, and that he will continue
to figure in developments of the i'm
mediate future is generally accepted.
But how many governments may rise
and fall before he again finds his place
ii the lead belongs to the unique work
ings of British politics.
