Hub to Quit Baseball Rather Than Go Down to Minors. # Gallatin, Tenn., Dec. 7.—Hub Per- due, the famous “Gallatin Squash,” means what he says when he asserts he will quit baseball rather than join a minor league club. Perdue, who has owned a farm for some time, has fust purchased a half interest in a cafe here. The cafe is one of the show places of the town, and between §¢ and the farm Perdue figures he will be independent of baseball. Perdue was a member of the St. Louis Cardinal team last season and part of the previous one. He es- caped being a member of the World's Champion Boston Braves by kicking over the traces and forcing George Stallings to trade him. His showing 1%t season would not justify the Car- dinals holding onto him the coming vear and they have been preparing to send him to a minor league team on the coast. Perdue has maintained that he would not go to the coast, and his recent purchase would indicate he was preparing to escape minor league ser- vice. Hub stated that before he would pfAy minor league bill he would re- sign and never don a baseball suit. RELEASE FORMER BRAVES. Whaling and Moran Turned Loose by Vernon Club. President Maier of the Vernon club of the Pacific Coast league has taken a €ensible move in the cases of Bert Whaling and Herb Moran, who were | turned over to the club by the Boston ! Braves in exchange for Outfielder Wil- hoit. Whaling said he would not play with Vernon unless he were made manager of the club, and Moran also expressed dissatisfaction with his as- signment to the coast. <President Maier has informed both that they could have his permission to make deals that would shift them to whatever clubs they pleased to go. It is believed that Whaling will tie up with the Federals, while Moran’s hope is to land with some organized club in the eastern part of the country. », WANTS HARLOW AGAIN.

The Dardanelles operations were di- rected from Greek islands occupied by allied troops.

I know what war is. I do not want any more if it can be honorably avoided. My people do not want any more, and if they and I can help it, we shall not have any more.” “Then your majesty does not be- lieve that the intervention policy of the former premier, M. Venizelos, really expressed the will of the Greek people.” Not for Venizelos Policy. “I know it did not,” replied the king forcefully. “When the people re-elected Venizelos they elected him. Not his policy. The great mass of the people of Greece did not, and will not, understand anything about the Venizelos foreign policy. They like him and they elected him, but it would be the maddest folly to as- sume that because they voted for a man personally popular they, there- | fore, voted to throw the country into the whirlpool of the European war. They did no such thing. War is the last thing they want. Ask them; they will tell you so. “It is said that I have exceeded the constitution. What I have done is to apply the constitution. The con- stitution gives me the power to dissolve the chamber to pre- vent just such disasters as followinz the Venizelos policy would have proved at this juncture. My duty under the constitution was to exer- | cise that power. I did exercise it and will continue to exercise it so long s it is necessary to save my people from destruction. “Another thing I want to make clear: It is said that M. Venizelos, with my consent, invited the allied | troops to come to Saloniki. Nothing could be further from the trtuh. M. Venizelos may have expressed the per- sonal opinion that if the allied troops landed at Saloniki Greece would not ist—how could she resist, But that M. Venizelos ever, as the respon- sible head of the Greek government, formally invited fereign troops to en- ter Greek territory is wholly untrue.

But two things I will not concede: Greece shall not be forced or cajoled out of her neutrali Greece will her sovereignty and her sovereign right to protect herself at need.” “And if that is not satisfactory—if coercive measures are used by the en- tente powers?” the king was asked. “We shall protest to the whole world that our sovereign rights are violated. We shall resist passively as long as we humanly can, being forced by any measures whatsoever into a course which we know will be preju- dicial to the liberties and happiness of our people.” “And when you cannot longer?" “We shall have to demobilize our armies and await the march of events.
