Ill the hidden possibilities behind the Greek revolution, yon have the beat poa- alble Inside view of Europe today. The Orwk trou ble sounded no louder in world affairs than arc mote quarrel In fa remote family. What made It more Important than It appeared to be was the fact that there are sensitive dl plomatlc amplifi ers throughout PAUL MALLON Europe which at any time may eaten up such Insignificant sounds and transmit them into chrieking gun thunder In every capital In the world. One Is across the Greek border In Bulgaria. Since the war. Bulgaria has been living In hopes of reclaim ing a commercial outlet to the Ae gean sea through Greece. She sensed the opportunity presented by inter nal strife in Greece. Her troops moved up to the Thracian border at the first sound of the Greek dispute. This troop movement was heard at one In Turkey. The Turks have a secret alliance with the Greeks to prevent Just such a step. Immedi ately Turkey began to concentrate troop on her Bulgarian frontier. Any trouble between Turkey and Bulgaria would Immediately draw In most of the other Balkan powers. They are bound by treaty to come to Turkey's assistance. But that would be only the begin ning. Behind Turkey stands Prance. The French arc friends of the Turks and have been cool toward Bulgaria since Bulgaria refused to Join the little en tente pact of French allies. . . . Bulgaria has greater hidden power behind her also. Italy has been back ing her as a wedge in the anti-Italian little entente and as a threat against Jugoslavia. Italy's traditional enemy, which borders on Bulgaria. Behind France and Italy the ampli fication possibilities are obvious and endless. Best U. S. authorities agreed the maximum amplification possibilities probably would not be reached at this time, but they cannot tell when the next far-away match-scratch will split their eardrums at home. The secret lineup in Europe con stantly shifts, but, never changes. The ay stem Is substantially the same ss tt was 21 years ago when It pro moted the world war. A clever congressman has dug up privately an old forgotten law which says: "No money appropriated by any act (of coneressi shall be used for the compensation of any publicity expert unless specifically appropriat ed for that purpose." This would seem to lllegallze the best part of the New Deal press agent avstem. because money was not specifically appropriated for most of the new publicity men (NRA. fwa FHA. ETC.). The law went into ef fect October 22. 1913 (title 8. No. 54. and Annotated Statutes, U. 5.) and has never been repealed, but Apparently the New Draiers knew about it, even if no one else did. At least they have taken steps to circum vent It. For one thing, they have very naively neglected to designate most of their publicity men as such on the payroll. Instead the.e employes are generally called "administrative scents' or other fancy nnn.es. , Also, fome of the New Deal appro priations carry blanket authority to hire and fire anyone. The federal homing administration art, for In stance, author)?' employment ". . wtthouet rccard to the provisions of I othr laws. . . ." Thus, a planned sensational explo sion may fall to explode, althouch you very probably will - hear some thing naid on the subject in congress shortly.

(AP) In vestigation of the Oregon relief ad ministration through the reorganised committee will be made, "but there will be no public Investigation," Gov ernor Charles H. Martin today told a delegation representing the National Economic Welfare federation. The group, headed by W. K. Pat rick, all of them on relief In the state from periods up to as long a two and a half years, requested the ex ecutive first Investigate the present administration, then added that those on relief who were not satisfied with the amounts received, and further declared the state should contribute more to match federal funds. Hint Funds Missing "Would you follow through if we bring you a claim to find about a million and a halt dollars that seems to have disappeared?" Patrick asked the executive. Indeed I will," the governor re plied. "Every legitimate complaint will be Investigated through the com mtttee, and with the four members of my own appointment on the com mittee, I am responsible for their ac tion. The governor declared further that 'as your governor I will assume all responsibility. I am going to do the best I can for all the people, and not for Just a group. 'I have no political ambitions. I have but one point In view and that is to do the very best I can. At the first meeting of the committee I will a&k the members to Investigate every legitimate complaint, the governor l continued. Solons Reassured The .ultimatum followed close upon the heels of a similar statement to members of the house of representa tives who Inquired as to the execu tive's attitude toward the proposal of Representatives Warren Erwln and Etlls Barnes that a legislative Inves tigation be launched by resolution. For days Erwln and Barnes have been circulating a copy of such a resolu tion among their colleagues In an andeavor to Induce others to Join with them as Its sponsor for Intro duction. As the members of the delegation entered the executive office and In troduced themselves each declard he had been on the relief rolls for pe riods varying from a few months to two and a half years. "What la your complaint?" Govern or Martin asked. "We do not believe that the stand ards of relief In Oregon are up to the maximum of relief elsewhere," re plied Patrick. "What standard do you want?" "A wage sufficient to provide the American standard of living." Pat rick answered. In reply to qucsttons by Governor Martin, members of the delegation said they had been receiving up to $35 or $40 a month. Patrick said he was getting about 120 month. "What do you consider Is em braced In the American standard of living?" Oovjernor Martin asked. "Food, shelter, clothing, fuel and other necessary articles," Patrick said. "Amusements?" Mostly Federal Funds. "No. we are not asking ,that. al though I bel I eve Dl rector Hopk I ns said we are entitled to recreation." Patrick agreed that practically all of the relief money spenj; In Oregon has been provided by the federal government when Governor Martin raised that point "I have made Inquiry of the fed eral officials directing rflief and pro viding the money for Oregon," Gov ernor Martin said. "They advise me that they are well satisfied with the manner in which relief funds have been administered here and will ' the auxiliary, will offer several num not stand for any changes.
