PRESSURE CAUSED ACTION.
Public Sentiment Demanded Ap-
peal for League Decision.

By Cable to The Star aud Chicago Daily News.
SOFIA, February 13.-The decision
of Greece to appeal TO the League of
Nations against the expulsion of Pa
triarch Constantine from CONSTANT
nople was caused by the pressure of
religious public opinion. which is
strongly opposed to letting the mat
ter drop.
If the principal European powers
should unite on the standpoint that
Turkey. by eXpelling the patriarch.
has violated the spirit, if not the let
ter of the Lausanne treaty, more
may be heard of the matter, and con-
ceivably diplomatic means might be
resorted to in order to induce Tur-
key to make reparation.
But signs of a new Franco-Turkish
rapprochement are visible. The ap-
pointment of Franklin Bouillon. a
notorious Turkophile. as French AM
bassador to Turkey is likely, so
France may take Turkeys side, in
which case the position of Greece
will be materially weakened.
Furthermore, the attitude OF the
League of Nations toward Greece
will not be rendered more friendly
owing to the latter's rejection of the
minority protocol which the league
signed with Greece and Bulgaria
At present the greatest chance of
Turkey and Greece coming to an
amicable agreement is by direct con-
sultation. Arbitration by the League
of Nations between Near Eastern
countries, especially when Turkey is
not a member of the league, offers
little hope of success.
