Feilding Star, Oroua and Kiwitea Counties' Gazette. TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 1, 1916. A STRONG HINT TO GREECE.
During the cour.se of seme unkingly intervieAvs given by Constautine of Greece to American newspapermen, the Champion Dodger of Doing Things complained bitterly about tho Allies trampling rough-shod over Greece's fine feelings. What will Constantine tho Complaining say now that he has received orders from the Entente Powers to demobilise ? Yet this is the only $tcp for General Sarrail to take." Britain Jja.svinsisted all along that the Allies originally landed at Salonika on the invitation oi' Greece. The imnifidiate object of tho Allied Powers, therefore,' was to regularise the military position at Salonika, and to deny to Bulgaria and the Central Powers any control, direct or mdirectj over Salonika. Of course, if ClreecCj p.t the instance vf the Allies, tells the men of her army at Salonika to go back to their homes, ehe is thus relieved of all obligations to defend her soil against the advance of the Bulgars, Germans,, and Turks, Meantime, we may take it that the latest hint to Greece indicates that the Allies have at last converted Salonika into a second Calais —and we have got even with the smartness of the enemy in forestalling us at Gallipoli.
