The French govern mcnt received today from Premier tkouloudis, head of the new Greek Cabinet, formal assurance of "our neu trality with the character of sincerest benevolence toward the entente pow er. Premier Skouloudis expressed the hope that the feelings of the entente rowers toward Greece would not he in fluenced toward attempts to impair their friendly relations. The communication was in the form of acommunication from the Greek 1'remier to Athos Romano. Greek Min ister at Paris, which the Minister de livered to Jules Cambon, general secre tary of tbe foreign ministry. V'rcnch Advance Reported. Tteports from the Serbian front rep resent the situation aa iutisfaclory for the allies, says a Havaa dispatch from Athena, filed yesterday. The French have reached Uradzko, on the railroad from Krlvolak to Veles. A Bulgarian attack against Krivolak is reported to have been repulsed. On the Anglo-French front north west ot Guevgell the advance of the allies continue and the Bulgarians now occupy only the village of Ourmandi in Serbian territory. i aispacn tor Athens says that a preoiciion tnat the Chamber of Depu ties win bo dissolved is credited to Premier Sltoulodis by the Patris. which asserts that he replied, when asked whether the ministry would appear before the Chamber; "The question is not formally settled yet, I can say now, however, that the Cabinet will not appear and that then Chamber will be dissolved." Ministers Fnvor Dissolution. Another dispatch from Athens says: "The Cabinet meeting was held to day, but nothing1 transpired as to whether the government will accept me proposals or ju. venizelos with view to avoiding the dissolution of l'arMament. These proposals are either that .Minister of War Yanakitsas shall ex press regret for the incident which rsunea in me overthrow ot the Zaimis Ministry, or ithat all the followers of .sr. Venizelos shall absent them- eelvea from the sessions of the Cham ber, giving a free hand to the other deputies, who constitute a quorum. it is understood a majority of the ministers favor dissolution." General Yanakitsts, the Minister of war. is credited wjth being: responsible for the vote in Parliament which 1 showed a lack ot confidence in Premier Zaimis and his fellow min isiers aiter ne nail retused to com ply with the demand of M. Venizelos that he apoligize for a remark to which the Parliamentary leader took exception. M. Yanakitsaa retains the portfolio or war Minister in the re organized Cabinet. BULGARIA GIVES WAKXIXG Facilities for Landing of Allies De clared Cn neutral. PARIS. Nov. 9.

Kaoum, Greek Minister to Bulgaria. Premier Hadoslavof f, the correspond ent declares, regards the facilities ac corded for the diseinbarkment of allied troops at Saloniki as incomptaible with Greek neutrality, and has informed Minister Kaoum to this effect. BRITON PREDICTS CRISIS (Centmuea From First Pase.) Does it portend good or evil that these two giants, have buried their diferences and stand united? America to nave Conflicts, Too. I have not seen Lleyd George, but I have talked with Northeliffe.

"What is America thinking of us? What do its citizens believe the issue of the war will be?" asked Lord North eliffe, and. barely awaiting your 4n swer, he continues: "Your country will have its conflicts also. Yes, I think you are right. It will be an internal reflex -action of the great changes tak ing place here. "Before the beginning of next year )' income tax will be $2.50 on every Jo of income. In my opinion this tax win never be less, even after the war. On tho other hand, the working classes are receiving higher wages than they nave ever received before.

"In addition there Is the subtle in wi ine war. tor months your people have been reading about the .spilling of blood- This constant diet of war is sure to bring about an In ternal upheaval. The American Revo lutionary war was tho prorursor of the s rum ri revolution. " .as 1 nave said, there is a .small party , Of powerful men in English, politics headed by Lord Xorthcliffe and Sir Ed ward Carson and it may be said in passing that Lloyd George is suspected of smiling on the alliance who are en deavoring to upset the government. Their weapons are attacks on the gov ernment for its alleged incompetency in nanaung tne war. For an outsider it is extremelv diffi cult to judge of the merits of their case. personally, before coming to England, r felt inclined to believe that,' to say the least, England had been slow in gath ering the mighty power of the realm into effective solidarity, such as the greatness of the crisis demanded. r felt inclined to believe that conscription ought long since to have been adopted and that the volunteer system was bound to break down, as it contained in itself inherent injustices to elements of the community which rendered in judicious its maintenance under the un heard-of strain of a world war. Conscription la Difficult. This opinion has been modified since I have been in England. In the first place, it must be realized that a sys tem or universal service cannot be es tablished over night in a country, es pecially lr such, a system be abhorrent to the principles of individualistic free dom which underlie the institutions and government of the land. To establish tne details of the organisation of uni versal service during the last year-) wouia nave swamped the war Office, which is already overwhelmed with the complicated business ot carrying on the war itself. Furthermore, Premier As tiuith and all the members of the pres ent government have declared ' fof months that conscription would be adopted as soon as it was needed. in the meantime, under lord Derby's plan, an organization is being perfected in raising recruits for the volunteer army which by degrees will lead up to conscription. When the moment comes that the volunteer system no longer furnishes an adequate number of men for the army the ditioult problems in cident to establishing conscription in the nation will have been solved and a complete organization will be at hand to undertake the work. Nation Marshaling Itself. Tn this war the voices ot the critics and carpers are heard shouting in the marKet place, but the sound of the steady march forward of the nation marshaling itself with quiet determina tion, not for six months or a year or two, but for years of protracted strug gle is not audible to those who have not the privilege of living in England and moving about from place to place, where the work is being done. All over this land troops are drilling, camps have been instituted and barraoks are hems' built not temporary wooden barracks which will last only a short time, but substantial stone structures intended to house troops in training. Gigantic factories are being built for the manufacture pf munitions, such fac tories as heretofore have not existed outside of Germany. Gradually the government is getting into its hands every industry for the manufacturing pf materials of war. And what about the recruiting of volunteers? Do we thoroughly realize what it means for 3.030,000 voluntarily to undertake the duties of military service in a foreign land? How much more remarkable is this phenomenon when you realize that this is the most dreadful and cruel war the world has ever seen and that probably more than one wounded man in every three dies eitner on tne nelI or In hospital.

NEW TORK, Nov. 9, Notwithstand ing thousands ' of contributions by Americans, this country has given less per capita- to. relieve the unhappy plight of the Elcgians than Australia. Canada, Holland and several other countries, according to Herbert C. Hoover, chairman of the Commisison for Kelief in Belgium, who sailed to day for Rotterdam. "For instance," Mr. Hoover said, "the United States has given for Belgian re lief i cents for every man, woman and ohild composing her hundred million inhabitants, while contribu tions from l.ew Zealand amount to Jl.'3 per capita. - "Tbe gratitude, however, of the Bel gian people to America is pathetic. Belgium is the one country in Europe today where America Is popular. The people of houvain have renamed a nub lie square the French equivalent for The United States Square' and Presi dent Wilson's name appears on many .Belgian streets. School children all over the country have showered our branch offices with embroideries, bead work and similar articles, addressed to the American people to show their grantuae.

Spinster Owner of Feline Aristocrat Turn on Hose 1b Midst of pia- order; Animals Escape. CHICAGO, Nov. 9. "Omar." an aris tocratic Persian kitten valued by his owners at o0,ooo, and 21 other cats, nearly as aristocratic but much less valuable, were evicted from their cjuar ters in an uparlment building here today. Two bailiffs, two spinsters who owned the cats. 600 school children and the police riot squad took leading parts 111 tne scenes that followed tho carry ing out of the eviction, which was ob tained by tho receiver for" the apart mcnt building against the cats. After packing the animals In bas kets, the two bailiffs reached the street safely, but here "Omar"' balked, and, pushing up the lid of his basket, sought safety in flight. In the ensuing dis order the other cats also fled, pursued by hundreds of school children. Some body turned in a riot call, and either Anna or Isabella Patter, owners ot the cats, obtained a garden hose. Water from the hose eliminated the necessity for police interference. The bailiffs retired, the children fled, and the cats are still at liberty. ... Oregon Pos-tntasters Apiolnted. OREGOXI.VN NEWS BUREAU. Wash ington, Nov. 9, James R.

MEXICO RETURNING TO NORMAL TIMES State Department Learns Famine Has Become Thing of Past in Capital. RAILROADS RUNNING AGAIN Law and Order Restored, In Jjarjrcr Cities and Towns Under Carran za Control and Bandits Are Being Exterminated. WASHINGTON, Nov. 8. Conditions in Mexico are improving and there are signs that give hope for a gradual re turn to order and prosperity there, ac cording to a summary of advices from various parts of the republic tonight txy me state uepartment. The famine in Mexico City is said to be over. Railway service is said to be re-established in many directions, the government is distributing food to the destitute and while business is still dull, compared to peaceful years, it is pictured as better than at any time since the revolt against Diaz began. Advices reached the Department to day that Hermosillo was taken by the de facto government forces on Novem ber 7, with little resistance. West Coast ports were reported quiet. Famine la Thing of Past. "Conditions in Mexico are such as might be expected in any country that has passed through about six years of civil war," says the statement. "'Those hopeful for the restoration of order and of Mexico's former prosperity be lieve that there now is a -chance for them to improve. "In Mexico City the famine is a thing of the oast. Now, through government officials, there is food for everybody, and the improvement of the railroad service makes it certain that food con ditions will be better every day. The government has been maintaining 46 stations where fodd is free, consisting of a portion of soup, frijoles and bread, distributed daily to every woman or child who comes. In addition there are 66 commissaries where food is sold to those in better circumstances at cost. Further, there are ten dining-rooms where meals are served free. Condi tions are so much better that the gov ernment is considering the reduction of the number of these free stations. Stores Open and Well Storked. "While business is not flourishing with former years in Mexico City, it is probably better than it has been at any time since the trouble started. The stores are open and most of them are well slocked, in contrast with the con ditions of a year and a half ago at the end of the Huerta regime. "Restoration of railroad service throughout the country will not only be the big step towards resuming nor mal conditions, but it will also be the barometer of peace and order in the country. Railroads have been in the -ast few weeks transferred from the military to the civil authorities. The latter are now attempting to get the railroads on a running schedule, work ing under the most discouraging handi caps Of the former equipment of the treat national system of railroads, more than two-thirds of the engines, cars, rollingstcck, and stations have been destroyed.
