ONE BODY TO HANDLE ALL MONEY BILLS Washington, Dec. 4.;?All appro priation bills will be handled by one committee in the House during the coming session, it was decided today by the committee on committees. A number of Republican leaders, how ever, expressed the opinion at the conference that the innovation would result in a tangle of appropri ation legislation. Representative Mann, of Illinois,' chairman of the committee on com-j mittees, said it might be found thatj the enlarged appropriaion committee j was unable to handle all of the bills. In that event, he added, the old or-! der probably would be restore J, for J this session.

Bank s DLY BANK." iLE, S. G. GREEKS WORRY j OVER FINANCES ' Athens, Dec. 5.?Athens outward ly is calm, but there is a strong un dercurrent of restless apprehension. The qabinet conferred until a late hour tonight and the ministers ex pressed the hope that with the re turn of Constantine an accomplished fact the diplomatic and financial difficulties of Greece might later be smoothed over. One of these latter is that France may at the end of December call her large loans to Greece, which in the past year and a half she has renewed every three months. Reorganization of the cabinet with either Nicholas Stratos, former minister of marine, or Demetrios Gounaris, at present the war minis-1 ter, as premier, has been proposed,' but in view of the present state of j the public mind no change in the, ministry is anticipated. Premier Rhallis visited the regent this after noon in the expectation of re ceiving comforting words from Con stantine, whose messages go dirftct1 to Tatoi. "We've got no money and we must have credit," exclaimed the premier, when he found no advices had been received from the former monarch. When the allied ministers tonight formally presented the supreme council's note concerning measures to be taken in the event of Con statine's return, the streets about the foreign ministry were blocked, i crowds filtering in from Constitu tion square. They shouted: "Work, work," when the Italian minister, Signor Montagna, arrived, the peo 1 pie regarding him favorably because of his reported friendliness to Greece. j Later the crowds proceeded to the war ministry, which has been I crowded for days with ex-officers and others seeking reinstatement and carrying en a demonstration lasting an hour. The city's lights had purposely been darkened and when a slight rain fell the crowds strag gled down University street and passed the American embassy, where they were joined by cigarette makers in the cry for work. The financial situation is most s& ious and this afternoon M. Gounaris1 and Minister of Finance Kalogero-, polis conferred with M. Maximos*, * -- t - ? -J I.L. \T.1I 1 D??1. director 01 me iNauuimi umm ui Greece. No foreign money is per mitted to go out of the bank, and it has been suggested that money to pay the army and government offi cials might be obtained by printing new notes, despite the baneful ef- j feet such action would have on ex-. change. This would necessitate aibro | gation of the gareement of 1897, by which Greece's finances are under [ Franco-British control and without j whose consent no bank notes may b? issued. * REPLY BEFORE PRESIDENT Washintgon, Dec. 4.?President Wilson had before him today the re ply of the league of nations council to his acceptance of the role of me ! diator between the Armenians and the Turkish Nationalists.
