Correspondence of 'n{r Star and Chicago Daily * News. PARIS, July 2.—Nothing perhaps is . more astonishing among political events than the fluctuation in the fortunes of Greece since the armistice. A country which tgn years ago was a half oriental peasant land of 3,000,000 population or less became in 1919 a nation of 7.000.- 000, started on a victorious campaign of conquest which seemed to be leading . 10 an empire on two continents, with commercial hegemony on the eastern Mediterranean. and having for its busi ness capital one of the half dozen lead- ing commercial cities of the world, the matchless, resplendent matrix of em- pire—Constantinonle. Then—rifle shots and cheers, the return of the king, the attack on the Turks and—defeat. Every person with an ax to grind i ready to tell you just why Greece's mis- fortune has come upon her. To the us, which we have accepted and are exploiting in this sale cris allies and Greece was at stake. do not detract from Venizelos' remark- able qualities as statesman and diplo- vy, A Wonderful Midsummer Purchase of UNDERWEAR mat. But they are necessary to an un- derstanding of what has since happened. ‘Americans. accustomed to live under a republic, cannot understand the re- ligious devotion of the Greek people toward Constantine. They cannot un- derstand how mystic a love the Greeks held for a man for whom they prayed every Sunday in_church, to whom every male of military age took an oath of perscnal allegiance. with whom they sustained a religious re-|gy - lationship, for whose sanclity thrv were held responsible to their God. | Americans cannot understand how the | intensely individualist Greeks, quar- | [ relsome and deflant ever since the | o Every Woman Will Want at Least One of These KIMONOS An extensive variety of attractive styles and cool-looking materials—featured at 5 LS - ‘Choose from Nightgowns, Envel- ope Chemises, Petticoats and Com- bination Garments.

They boasted as loudly .as the royalists that the Greek armies would have “a military promen- Rde to Angora.” Though they hated Constantine, they thoroughly approved of his policy. And Greek royalists simi- larly do not accept the French theory that Greece’s moment of greatness was * due primarily to Venizelos. They say that not Venizelos' diplomacy, but Greece's geographical position brought her all those windfalls of territory which the allies did not know how to dispose of otherwise. Greece, even under Con- stantine, would have received Thrace, which could not well be left either to the enemy Bulgaria or the enemy Tur- key. Greece, even under Constantine, would have been made “the gendarme of the entente’’ to make punitive expe- dition against Kemal which none of the | western armies would undertake, and to . receive a slice of Antolia_in return. And Greece, even under Constantine, has as good & chance as ever to receive Constantinople if it should suit the rather devious purposes of the entente. The truth is that any snap judgment on Greece is likely to be wrong, because the world in general does not under- stand the complex nature of the Greek people.

In nearly all Greck hou: beside the picture of the king vou | will find engravings showing the bat- | tles of the war of Greek independence, | with the Creator sitting in the heav ens and blessing the Greek troops. To so self-assertive and mystic a people as the Greeks such a picture is mere- 1y the exact representation of the lit- eral truth. But along with mysticism and in- dividualism there is a shrewdness, a mercurial mental facility which-sim- ply takes the foreigner’s breath away. President Wilson paid public tribute to the shrewdness of Venizelos. Every American business man who has heen in Greece is awed by this quality in the. modern Hellenes. Therefore the following remarkable ‘story does not seem improbable to those who have ed in Greece. It is a story which can never be proved trie, but it I belleved by a larze percentage of the people in Greece, and by highly placed and responsible officials of the allied and assoclated governments who are thoroughly familiar with Greek af- tairs.
