ANNUAL MEETING
OF GOVERNORS ON
Harrisburg, Pa., Dec. 2.?New
England clasped hands with the Pa
cific slope here today and the deni
zen of the frozen great lakes shore
met an fraternized with the dweller
of the land along Rio Grande when
two score governors and governors
elect assembled in the Pennsylvania

sion of their twelfth annual confer
ence. t
Discussion of weighty questions of

tives when they convened under the j
gavel of Governor William C.:
Sproul of Pennsylvania in his capa

orous program of official discussion
punctuated by entertainment at the

at the governor's home for a formal

Two men, were arguing in their
club. One, a fellow of ineffable con
ceit, was boring everybody with
bis violence that his will was strong
er than that of anybody's present.
"You are wrong here," said one of
bhe gentlemen, "and I will prove it"
"Go and stand in that corner, and I
will have you out of it before I have
commanded you the second time."
The smart one stood in the corner
and the quiet one one said: "Come
out of that corner." The other grin
ned and shook his head. The quiet
man looked at him steadily. Five
minutes passed and then the smart -
man said with a sneer: "Don't you
think you had better give it up, I do
not feel any influence at all, and I
can't stand here all evening.' "Oh,
as to that," replied the quiet man,
"there is no hurry. I am perfectly
coojifortable. You recollect that
there is no time limit; you are sim
ply to come out before I ask you
twice. And as I do not intend to
ask you again until a week from to
day in order to give your strong
will a fair and vigorous trial, we
might as well take it easy." The
man with the iron resolution sneak
out of the corner and the incident
was declared closed.?Houston Post
CONSTANTINE NOT GO
TO GREECE NOW
Evidence Points to Fact Greece I*
Disposed to Remain Pro-ally.
Athens, Nov. 30.?It is probable
that former King Constantine will
not return at once to Greece, but
after the plebiscite to be held on,
December 5, a number of deputies
and ministers may ero to Switzer
land to notify him of the result of
the vote. Every effort is being made
to win the favor of France and
Gteat Britain, which is taken to be
evidence that Greece is disposed to
remain pro-ally.
"The benefits of the Turkish
treaty," said Demetrois Gounaria,
minister of war, to the Associated
rress today, "snould in any case
come to Greece because they were
not given her because of the per
sonal influence of former Premier
Venizelos."
Followers of the former premier,1
as a party, are officially requested
by leaders of the organization, not
to take part in the plebiscite. They
point out the plebiscite will be held
in order to clear the present cabinet
and also Constantine of responsibili
ty, and to make the Greek people re
sponsible for whatever consequences
the return of the former king may
have.
The newspaper, Essia, official or
gan, states the present Greek gov
ernment has received no unfavor- J
able word from the Allies regarding
its actions, and that the plebiscite
has been planned in accord with
declarations made by former Pre
mier Ribot, of France, when Con
stanting was dethroned the newspa
per says, that dynastic questions
should be settled by the Greek Par
liament. It is arsrued the plebiscite
will be a step in this direction.
George Rhaliis, the premier, has vis
ited ministers of foreign countries i
to deny reports that officers associa-!
tions are being reorganized for the,
purpose of taking military measures
against foreigners.
Retur is from the vote cast by the
army in the election of November 14
show it will give the followers of
Constantino a larger majority in the
chamber. It is reported that 50,000
ballots cast by the army were frau
dulent.
British and French Veuelt Arrive j
Important British and French
squadrons have arrived at Phaleron
from Constantinople. So far, no for
eien ministers have left Athena.
Prince Christopher, brother of
Const&ntine, baa stated in an inter
view that the defeat of M. Venizelos
was due to the fact that because of
his foreign policy the Greeks felt
they were reduced to the position of
a colony.. He declares it is false
that Constantino was a pro-German,
and asserts he was merely pro
Greek.
"It would be folly," he adds, "to
be pro-Gennan today with Germany
so low. Greece wants only to live
in peace. This is Constantino's pro
gram."
