Greeks Issue direct
Challenge to Turks
London, March 27.—The Greek gov
ernment announced Us policy Monday
on the refugee question, says an Ath
ens dispatch to the Times. This pol
icy is a direct challenge to the Turks,
demanding that the Angora govern
ment send ships to transport the
Turkish populations from Greece and
declaring that it is absolutely Impos
sible for Greece to receive more ret
ugees until an exchange of popula
tions Is arranged whereby the TUrks
now residing in Greece will cede their
homes to an equal number of Ana
tolian Greeks. -
Greece hopes that the powers will
use their utmost influence to have the
Greek refugees retained in their pres
ent locations until an exchange is ar
ranged, because the return of 75,000
Christians now crowded in various
ports to the interior would be a great
calamity.

MANY people deny themselves the comfort
of a hot drink with meals, because they
find coffee and tea detrimental to health. For
many, the drug element in coffee and tea irritates
the nerves, retards digestion and often prevents
( natural, restful sleep.
If this fits your case, try Postum. This pure
cereal beverage supplies all the pleasure and
satisfaction that a hot mealtime drink can give
invigorating warmth, fine aroma and delicious
flavor. And you can enjoy it in the full assurance
that it cannot harm health.
