less the Turkish demands are with
drawn, she has placed the allied repre-
sentatives in a most uncomfortable
position. Ismet Pasha is no less firm
than Venizelos and has formally asked
Sir Horace Rumbold what the attitude
of Great Britain will be in case the war
between Turkey and Greece is renewed.
Sir Horace, aided by the French, has
been trying to find ground for COM
promise, suggesting that Turkey be
given Karagatch, the west bank Of the
Martha and the railway from Kara
catch to Constantinople, in lieu of cash.
The Turks did not reply definitely, but
the Greeks asserted, informally, that
they would make no such offer.
Meanwhile both sides are preparing
for warfare. The Greek army in
Thrace, which Henry J. Allen says
numbers 100000 men, is lined up along
the Martha and the threat is that it
will march against Constantinople. A
considerable Greek feet is cruising
about the entrance to the Dardanelles,
and the Turkish government has lodged
with the British protest against it's
presence there The Turks assert that
If Greece wants war they are ready,
and that their troops in Anatol1a can
reach Constantinople in two days,
while 1t would take the Greek army at
least fifteen days even without oppo-
sition. One Turkish general is quoted
as saying: 'The Turks feel certain
that Greece will not start fight with
out allied support. For this reason
Turkish officials are threatening Mosul
and Syria, and those provoking or en-
couraging the Greeks to attack Con-
stantinople should take this into con-
sideration."
The Turks, it is said, either have de-
stroyed or are ready to destroy all the
bridges over the Martha. 1t is known
that they have mined the bridge that
connects Karagatch with Adrianople.

also because they feared his Russian
policy would lead to war So Curzon,
prevented from realizing his greatest
ambition, was compelled to step aside
and Baldwin was offered and accepted
the position.
This, 1t would appear, was fortunate
for Great Britain and gratifying to the
world at large, for Baldwin gives
promise Of being a more accomplished
and skillful statesman than the AFRO
CANT Lord Curzon. He Is fairly &C
ceptable to the Labor party in Eng
land, and certainly his appointment Is
pleasing to France, which blames Cur
zon for much of the trouble she has
had in the Ruhr occupation and for the
threatened break with Belgium over
the methods to be pursued there. In
Washington Mr.. Baldwin created de-
cidedly favorable impression by the
way in which he conducted the nego-
tiations for the funding of the British
war debt to America. He is pre-
eminently a business man with a
knowledge of finances that was dis
played best by the budget which, as
chancellor of the exchequer, he sub
mitted to parliament not long ago. At
this writing Baldwin has not completed
his cabinet, but it Is said there will be
few changes. Curzon will remain as
secretary for foreign affairs. Lord
Robert Cecil, protagonist for the
League Of Nations, will probably be
given portfolio as chancellor Of the

DOSSIBLY directed by Russian
~ agents, the communists in the
Ruhr decided last week that the time
for direct action had come. In Gelsen-
kirchen, after bloody fights with the
police, they seized the police headquar-
tiers and hoisted the red flag, and in
Dortmund there was another desperate
conflict. A general strike, nominally
against the cost Of food, is in effect in
the Ruhr and is spreading rapidly. In
some towns commissions of control
forced the dealers to reduce prices.
Communist leaders say men of all
parties have joined in the strike. It
was asserted by the German press
that these disturbances were fostered
by the French. To this the French
retorted that their officials at Dussel-
dorf had knowledge that Moscow had
sent more than 100000 Swiss francs
to the Ruhr to further the scheme to
create a Soviet republic, and that the
Russians had also sent two ShiploadS
Of wheat for the use Of the communists.
The mobs were organized in units of
100 and were capably commanded. The
French troops refused to interfere in
the fights.
