He has made m:iny attenipts to defend his course, but his contention that he only sought to main- tain :ind protect (`lrccce`s neutrality is not siipnorted by facts. When Constantine re- pudizited the treaty with Serbia he himself zibrindoned neutrality. The landing of Al- lieil troi,»ps in Macedonia was at the in- slaiicc of forincr 1"rcniicr Vcuiv-clos, who had :i ri_u°ht to sanction that action. _

It is lizrrdlv necessary at this latc day to

recount all the li'e:iclieroiis acts of Gon- stzintinc dui-ing`tlie past two years. .He has been the willing tool _of the Hohenzollerns from _tlielly-ggiiiiiiiig. .._He.struck at Greecel as wellas the Fnitente when he ordered the surrender ol' Gi'cek i`__o_rts to Bulgaria and when .he allowed a w-hole army; corps to surrender to the Ten-tons and go to Ger- many for “safekeeping_” He ,protected German intrigues, enabled German agents to establish submarine bases in Greek wa- ters from which Greek ships were attack- ed. He rallied enough reservists to his support to threaten' the Allied forces at Sa- loniki and prevent their fighting effective- lv. and his agents shot down from ambush Allied marines wholanded in Athens to keep neacef'

All this time Constantine was playing' a

reckless game: “That he was able to keep liisthrone was due, it is said, to the reluc- tance of the. f`ormei~`_liu`ssian Czar to allow him' to be dethrpned. -Thus it comes about that this lesser _aut_o`cr'at follows the greater one into oblivion. 'That is the first result of the change in Greece. Others that are almost sure to follow will have greater in- fluence upon 'the war‘as a whole.
