 Selected Poem
AUTUMN SHORE

AUTUMN SkAOAE (Arthur Stringer in the New York Times) The wine-dark sea still meets the sky, The changeless surf still croons, And still the combers curl and die
 Along the empty dunes. Far-off and phantom-like sail
 Moves slowly through the mist, But now the autumn sun is pale Where summers lovers kissed Where beauty loitered, rank by rank, And watched the breakers run, Where many glad bronzed body drank The golden summer sun. And though the rollers fringed with foam Still wash the timeless shore The golden girls have all gone home, The lovers are no more And sad the shore-line seems, and lone The darkling waters rout, As though the breath of fall had blown A thousand candles out!

the Crown was only formality and that the cabinet really rep- resented the Greek people, not the king. Venezelos also asked Casey whether, in featuring them, he was representing the views of the British Government or his own personal views.
 Casey replied that he was speak ing personally. Vice Premier George Rousos then suggested that the Greek cabinet would like to have the views of the British government. So Casey said he would refer the matter to Chur- chill.
 KEPT SENATORS AWAY
 Meanwhile, the five American senators passed through Cairo, but the British took good care to keep the Greek underground leaders away from them. Mean- while, also, U. s. Ambassador Kirk, though much more discreet than Casey, had been saying privately that the Greek cabinet should stand behind the King.
 About fifteen days later, Chur- chill wired King George @ fam ingly worded message, giving him full support and instructing him to ride forward Into battle at the head of your troops" Churchill apparently did not know that on the occasion King George had re- viewed Greek troops in exile, they had to be disarmed in advance by the British, for fear they would shoot him.
 Roosevelt sent a much milder message, nevertheless expressing his support.
 This ended the incident except that the British brusquely notified the seven underground leaders a day or two later that they must pack up and leave for Greece. At the Cairo airport, the seven lead- CTS suddenly realized that they were to fly over Greece and ball out.
 "The corporal will show you how to pull your parachutes," they were instructed.
 None had ever used parachute before, and they didn't know where they would land. They asked per- mission to phone Premier Tsou- derous. He informed Casey, who stopped the planes departure.
 There the matter rests, except that insurrection against the King has spread to the point where open warfare has broken out in Greece.

SECRET WEAPONS Christian Science MOnitOP)


 Early in the war the Nazis tried to use talk about secret weapons" as another bogey with which to frighten free peoples. Their real secret weapon was mesmeric fear. Actually in new defensive and of- fensive devices Allied inventiveness has more than turned the scales.
 We are now hearing about patrol planes using Searchlghts against submarines. How this has hampered U-Boat tactics of overriding con- voys on the surface at night and has forced them to risk surfacing in daylight to recharge batteries is a fascinating story.
 Sometimes new adaptations of old equipment or techniques have as great value or the other device. Al- lied use of one or the other in a most important field of combat is indicated by the latest Allied air forays from Britain, particularly the RAP raid on Leipzig.
 London dispatches tell how the big bombers went out in rain and wind and clouds that have always before kept them grounded-the kind of winter weather that the Germans hoped might give them a respite. We need not pry overmuch into how Allied crews have been trained or equipped for all-weather attacks. It Is enough to know that bad weather may Je not a hindrance but Q help in bombing Germany.

up by a collector in Parish who pur- chased 1t from a man with a push cart. The peddler thought it was only a cheap piece of crystal. The greatest diamond in the world was discovered amid circumstances which indicated that its value was not known to the people who originally possessed it.
 Always under such circumstances 1t takes the practiced eye and ap- preciative mind to see value where other people see none. Our Lord spoke of people who having eyes see not, and having ears, hear not. A man who recently trained a group of Egyptian laborers and made them first-calss mechanics, declared that you could teach anything to any, body in the world who has bright eyes; the heavy-eyed can learn nothing.

More than a year ago, a British colonel, sent as a sapper to blow up a railroad bridge between Athens and Salonika, failed to make connections with British naval units which were to take him out of Greece, and was forced to remain there. For one year he led and mingled with Greek guerillas, finally making his way back to Cairo this past summer.
 Tn Cairo he reported that while the Greek underground controlled much of the country away from the main highways and cities, the chief things which held back greater anti-Nazi irsurrection was British-American support for King George II.
 George II, sponsor and abettor of the hated Metaxis dictatorship, had been brought to the U. S.. A., wined and dined by President Roosevelt, and groomed to take over Greece after the Nazis were driven out. This, the British col- onel reported, did not go down well with fighting Greeks, who could not see much difference be- tween Naz rule and royal Greek rule.
 Following this, the Greek un- derground groups sent representa- lives to Cairo. Simultaneously George Exindaris, representative of old line Greek political parties, was persuaded by the British col- onel to come to Cairo, independ. ently of the underground leaders. NO KING FOR GREECE
 Whereupon, the seven under ground leaders, meeting with Ex- indaris in Cairo, agreed that the Greek people should shun politics, and concentrate on the enemy; and that King George should re- main out of the picture. He should be given a regular allowance, they declared, but should not come back to Greece until the Greek people had had a plebiscite after the war on whether they wanted g monarchy or a republic.
 The underground leaders drew lp a protocol to this effect, and handed 1t to the Greek cabinet. In a joint meeting 1t was uanani- mously approved. This was one of the few unanimous decisions

taken by the Greek cabinet re- gently. Even the Prime Minister, a close friend of the Kings, signed the protocol. However, because he was so close to the King, he asked that the vice prime minister present 1t to him.
 After receiving the protocol, King George invited the Cabinet to a Crown Council, at which the underground leaders set forth the sentiment of the Greek peo- pie and warned that any other policy than a plebiscite regard ing a monarchy would plunge Greco into civil war.
 King George listened politely, replied in effect:
 "Gentlemen, I thank you for your courtesy and enllghtment. I shall give my answer after consulting my friends Winston Churchill and President ROOSe- velt."
 ROOSEVELT AND KING
 Meanwhile, Alexander Kirk, U. 8. Ambassador to Egypt and Greece, had been dropping quiet and persistent hints that King George was the great and good friend of President Roosevelt.
 Two days later, the Greek cabi- net and guerilla chiefs were called in by British Minister for -the- Middle East, Richard Casey, for mer Australian Minister in Wash intgon. Present at the meeting was Sir Maitland Wilson, British Army commander for the Bal- kans.
 Casey immediately launched a tirade against the Greek cabinet, severely criticized their opposition to the King. Frequenty during the trade he turned to Maitland Wilson to ask:
 Commander, are you with me in this?"
 Maitland wilson replied vigor- ously in the affirmative.
 The Greek cabinet member who argued most with Casey was Sophocles Venizelos, son of the former Greek liberator and now Greek Minister of Marine. Until February of this year, Venizelos had been in the United States and felt that the American people did not believe in forcing King down the throats of the Greek peo- pie. At one point Casey turned to him and said:
 "What kind of Q minister of the Grown are you Co recOm- mend to your King that he not return to his pe0ple?"
 Venizelos replied that the ap- pointment of 8 Greek cabinet by

No matter what transpires we get back to the question of food and feed ing, and though food of sorts is scarcer we are eating, perhaps, more sensibly than ever before. Claude R. Wickard, secretary of Agriculture says in this re- spect: "We have been able to feed our soldiers better than any soldiers have ever been fed before. We have been able tc supply food for our Allies. And on top of that there are probably more people properly fed and fewer people under Ted in the United States than before the war began"
