Greece and Turkey

The Most Reverend Constantinos uceminical
patriarch of the Greek catholic church, was peremp-
toriy ordered to leave Constantinople by the Turk
ish government. The Greek capitalists are sore.
They feel liberties have been taken with their dig
nifty. They talking of making Turkey pay for the
insult But tbs very likely that they will take it
out in jaw exercises rather than with cold steel
and poison gas. They haven't got the money.
London and Paris are also discussing the latest
Greece Turkish rupture. Well, they might. 1t is
part Of the Franco British struggle. When France
takes crack at England, she does it by proxy.
Some small nation subsidized by France takes a
smack at some small nation subsidized by England.
Looking at things impartially, one would say
that the Greeks have kick coming the ex-
pulsion of their patriarch. The Turks kicked out
their own sultan who had more dependents than
the patriarch When the sultan was evicted, a
happy and populous home was broken up and
several perfectly good wives thrown an already
overstocked market. If the patriarch has one wife
he has one hundred. Perhaps that is why the
Greeks are kicking. They might have lot of fun
with the sultans cabinet if only the Turks estab
lished reciprocity.
Judging from the size Of the headlines in the
capitalist press another war between Greece and
Turkey is possible But it is not probable England
and France cannot afford to let their dogs quarrel
just now.

Famine in ireland

Ireland is in the grip of very serious famine,
according to news dispatches. Not only has the
potato crop failed but the peat on which the poor
peasants have depended for their fuel supply, is
flooded with water, due to the continual downpour
of rain which prevailed last summer.
The famine is not confined to the western sea-
board where chronic state of semifamine exists.
In many inland towns the people have not tasted
potatoes since last November Unemployment is
widespread and the workers and peasants are dying
of disease caused by malnutrition.
In addition, plaques have broken out among
the sheep and cattle, adding to the horror.
1t is regrettable that in face of this horror the
trade union movement should be torn by civil
strife, ignoring splendid opportunity to take the
lead in bringing relief to the suffering people, all
of whom are workers and poor peasants. The re-
suit is that the middle class capitalists and the
church, who are responsible for the chronic state
of poverty of the those unfortunate people, appear
in the role of saviors and benefactors The re-
lief work is in the hands Of the catholic church,
which strengthens its hold on the people and gives
it added prestige
That poverty and misery can flourish even under
native government, is now being amply demon
strated to the Irish people In 'bIack AT" when
over 100000 people died of hunger or were driven
into exile because of the famine, enough corn was
exported to feed three times the population. The
money was needed to pay the landlord his rent.
That was under British rule.
Today Ireland is under native rule, but the con
dition Of the workers and peasants is as bad as
ever. There was only an exchange of masters or
more correct change Of sive drivers. The present
Free State government Is But the agent of the same
ruling class that once fnfed from Dublin castle.
Famine and pestience win be the lot of the Irish
workers and peasants until they have change of
economic systems welflas change of masters.

Being Mayor Is Hard Work

Running New York is such big job that Mayor
Hylan commutes between the metropolis and Palm
Beach. One of the flies in Hylan's ointment is
Controller Charles L. Craig
This man Craig almost delayed his honor in get
ting away to Florida a few days ago. The two
statesmen do not like each other, and in their
debates, which are frequent and acrimonious, they
sometimes tell the truth about each other.
Last Thursday the mayor was getting ready for
his fourth vacation in six months and lie was in
a hurry. He wanted some matter disposed of be-
fore he went away. The controller was stalling.
Hyian got angry and called the controller liar.
The controller demanded that the mayor be ar
rested for disorderly conduct. The cop, Hylans
guardian, just laughed and told Craig to sit down.
After considerable noise the statesmen cooled off
and Hylan went on his way to Palm Beach.
In sunny Palm Beach his honor will not be
bothered with thoughts of the thousands of New
: York workers who are unemployed and suffering
from cold and hunger. tsat
