When the Olengorm Castle entered

infantrymen became visible from the
city the Immense gatherings of Greeks
and Armenians seeking visas outalde
the Interallied paaaport bureau quick
ly melted away. The expression was

Ibor l'p In Arms,
Labor throughout the country la
up In arms agalnat the Idea of a new
war, and there have been alnater
rumors of Industrial action to prevent
prosecution of a campaign against

The general anxiety of the British
people la deepened by the prospect of

that the preparatory measure for
war, such as the moving of troops,
store and warships to the near enst,
already have run the country Into the

There la an unconflrmaMe rumor
