8—A THE OMAHA SUNDAY BEE: SEPTEMBER 17, 1916. - MONARCH EXPLAINS INACTION OF GREECE Delayed Interview With Con- stantine Tells Why Country Holds Out. SOUL OF HELLAS TO DECIDE New York, Sept. 15—On Septem- ber 1, the staff correspondent of the Associated Press obtained the inter- view with King Constantine of Greece that io!lows. It is impossible tc say which of the censorships through which it passed held up the dispatch at the time. The interview was given about the time the entente allied fleet was taking position at Piraeus, the p rt of Athens, and revolutionary out- breaks were reported taking place in Magedonia: Tatoi, Greece, Sept. 1 (Via Paris, Sept. 15).—King Constantine re- ceived the correspondent of the Asso- ciated Press in his summer bqlace here and spoke of the present situa- tion with the utmost frankness, al- though refusing to be directly quoted. He said that Greece is ready to join the entente allies whenever it could see its definite'and certain advantage in o doing. ) . The king expressed indignation that it could be thought by anyone, much less be published, that he is bound by any pledge to inyone r.ot to 1 ~le war, or that he has been moved in hid course, hitl''rto, by any rea- sons save those he conceived to be for the greatest good of his country. He referred with particular feeling to the fate almost certain to overtake more than a million Greeks living in Asia Minor and Thrace in the event of Greece finding itself engaged' in hostilities with Turkey, and he rointed out that while those who jus dged Greece and hmself harshly for what is regarded as ‘inaction, they gave no -thought to the prospect of condemning to the lot of the Ar- menians Greek women and children caught in the toils of the Turke. ¢ king said the world regarded with callousness, due to ignorance, the real situation concerning the atti- tude of Greece, criticin(n, the coun- try and the government for bargain- ing, when the Greeks alone coull know and estimate the frightful cost of a war to Greece. He laid stress on the difference between Greece'. situation and Roumania's, in this re- spect. _Quite frankly the king admitted that the pressure of Bulgarians in Macedonia and Roumania’s entry into the war would greatly complicate the situation, constituting a new glement which easily might alter the premjse upon which the polic erto has been based. The king de- clared that all these new elements had to be duly considered and weighed before Greece would be jus- tified in changing its position. but he added that they now were being hought over, and the course of eece would depend on the result that considération, and nothing €. With profound earnestness, King Gonstantine stated it was not the mo; ment to talk of his deciding the fate of Greece, nor of the government Je- ing, nor of any political party in eece indigating the action the coun- try must take, but, as he put it, “the hour will come when we want the voice of the soul of Hellas to dictate the future of our race.” Physicianssand nurses are still in attendance upon the king, on account of the fever and continual irritation of the wound which keer: the king confined to his room and in a state ot constant physical annoyance, not in actual pain, when of Greece hith-| C Dundee o0 .

NOT HELD PRACTICABLE New London, Conn., Sept. 15.—A suggestion that the Mexican govern- ment create a constabulary for bor- der duty simi'ar to the rurales of the Diaz regime as made today, during a brief session of the American-Mexi- can joint commisslon concluding the second week of its deliberations, Apparently the plan for a joint police force, previously discussed, was abandoned as impracticable after the commissioners had conferred with Major General Tasker H. Bliss. General Bliss it was learned made the joint commission a statement of the situation he-belived would follow General Pershing's' withdrawal from Mexico, before a properly constituted constabulary is created to relieve his troops. It is understood, he pointed out problems in the way of an effort to create a border police under dual authority. There is reason to believe the American commissioners have sought to impress their Mexi n conferces with the view that Mexico must rec- ognize responsibility for the deprada- tions its nationals may commit on the border, if good relations afe to be unimpaired. “Beauty Copesses’’ On Masher’s Trail Chicago, Sept. 15.—~“A beauty squad” of police women set out tonight to curb “mashers” in Chi- cago’s downtown district.

NOT USED IN TRADE WAR, | | | Lopdon, Sept. 15—David Lloyd George, British secretary for war, to-| day gave the Associated Press the following statement: “There appears to be a deliberate campaign, set on foot in the United States by German agents, to throw | doubt on the good faith of his majes- ty's government in regard to the use of information obtained through the | censorship. “These German agents appear now | the House of Commons on August| 8, although tha: statement was fully explained by Lord Robert Cecil, min- | ister of war trade, on August 9, and most explicit assurances on the same | subject were given by him in a later interview on August 25. Has But One Use. | “In spite of this, these propagan- dists are trying to dress up my state- ment as something new, nullifying! Lord Robert Cecil's assurances which | followed it. Let me now say, on be- half of the military authorities, that when information is passed on by the censorship to other departments, it is for the sole purpose of guiding the action of the government in the con- duct of the war. “For instance, when we get infor- mation that an American firm permit for te export of certain goods from Rotterdam, on the ground that these goods had been paid for before the war, is using that permit fraudu- lently, as frequently has been the case, we pass the information on to the foreign office in order that they may cancel the permit. Not a Trade War, “Again, when we find that a neutral firm is using British banking facili- ties for the purpose of trading with our enemies and is deceiving the Brit- ish banks in question as to the real purpose of the transactipn, we pass that information on to the proper de- partment, in order that they may re- fuse to license the transaction. Or, again, if we learn that a shipment of contraband, ostensibly from one neu- tral firm to another, is really dgstined for the enemy, we see that the con- traband committee gets that informa- tion. “That, frankly stated, is what w do. But we affirm, and challenge anybody to deny it, that honest busi- ness interests and trade secrets of the American merchant or manufacture: are safe in the hands of the military censor and of every other government department as they are in the hands of the American postoffice.” What Lloyd George Said.
