VENEZELOS INTERVIEWED.
ALLIES MUST WIN
; ATHENS, Novrnher 22. ,■ Mr Ward Price interviewed ;M. Venezelos, who said: " The Germans afo; bound tot be .-conquered in tlbe .end.Tha reserves from which they are drawing their resources are much smaller than those of the Allies. The Germans> have already passed the zenith of their strength, though , they are powerful enough to prolong the .struggle for n long time. The new battleground hi the Balkans offers favourable . eondi-' tiorivs for the Entente to detail largo bodies of troops and thus cut off Germany from supplies of men and minerals from Turkey. If the Allies .smash the Germans in Serbia, aline of invasion is open across the Hungarian jplain, Germany's weakest fla-nls. T navo I the greatest admiration for Sir-Edwnrri J Grey, but it was a. mistake Lo chill - Greek sympathies by offering'the But .garians Kavalla without first ascertaining whether they would accept tho
bribe. The mass of the Greeks felt it too risky to. accept Cyprus under conditions which made it likely to result in forfeiting the rest of their territory."
