Under a new state law, only a small amount of bonds ean} be voted by the council; the rest have to be passed on by the people. As a result, this fall will find bond issues for more than $50,000,000 up for approval by the voters. And there’s a serious chance that, confronted by such a staggering total, the voters will turn the issues down indis- criminately, even leaving the city unable to pave its streets or install its water mains. And this raises the question: Are such matters better left in the hands of the council, or must the voters pass on every penny that is to be spent? And they passed on.

Greece was doubtless right in get- ting rid of its old dynasty, because it was the wrong dynasty. But was it right in thinking itself ready for a republic? The recent upheavals, the seizure of power by the military, the establishment of dictatorship, scarcely indicate it. “Government by the people” is more than a right. It is an achieve- ment. It has to be earned. The ancestors—if they were the cestors—of the Greeks earned it. hen they lost it. After centuries of friendly domina- tion by Rome, followed by centuries fi and then of senile stag- nation Byzantine rule, came other centuries of Turkish oppres- sion. For scarcely two generations, there has been experience in modern government under a western. king. Now comes the sudden plung into republican responsibility, and. it is evidently a deep one. The world, which reverses the mem- ory of aticient Greece, und is sym- pathetic with the aspirations of modern Greece, will hope for the best.
