This does nof mean that that country has agreed fo enter into the war on their side but that it will carry on its pol- icy of benevolent mneutrality under oven more favorable terms than- here- tofore. Greece is to a great extent & mari time nation. It relies to a large de- gree for its supplies upon other coun- tries and when. the allies, in order to accomplish - their ‘purpose -established a blockade which shut off those goods, including foodstuffs, they played a trump card and they won. Greece has thus agreed to demobilize its army. 1t has also promised to deport those agents. who have been spreading Ger- man propaganda and it has accepted the demand that pro entente sympa- thy, which has been so much. in evi- dence In the past, will not be sup-|b: pressed in the future. There will also be brought about a change' in the police policy which has prevailed in Athens and the bead of that depart- ment will go as a new non partisan cabinet is organized to conduct the government. This mearis an important victory for the allied nations and a rebuff for the central powers.

Which ex- Premier Venizelos has represented, and it means that while the king was determined that he -would not yield to the popular sentiment which has backed Venizelos he has been made to see the mecessity of giving in to powers which left no other course Dos- sible, and Greece would have stood belter with those friends had It done so' before, ¥ —— EDITORIAL NOTES.
