New Greek Disturbance Cen

Modern Development of
Land Has Been Slow
WASHINGTON, D. C (Sp.) Creek
war&hlps, murmed by rebels, dodging
mong the telands of the At-penn,
have focusfd interest on Greece and
Its iBland-Btudded was. The aeliswi
hip, pelted with bombs from loyal
airplanes overhead, were bound for
Crete, one of the major centers 01
the uprising.
"That Crete is a disturbing ele
ment In the affairs of the Mediter
reaan, la not new to hlAtorlims," says
a bulletin from the Washington, D.
C headquarters of the National Geo
graphic Society. "Nor Is this the first
revolt In which the Island has taken
i lending role.
HtMory Keplrte With llevnlls
"Crete was annewd to modern
Greece in 1013. Four years under
Greek rule had not passed when the
Islanders staged a revolution. Up to
that time the Cretans had been in
almost conaant state of revolt against
Turkish and Egyptian rule for the
greater part of the nineteenth and
early part of the twentieth centuries.
"Lying In the Mediterranean about
qul-dlHtant from Europe, Asia and
Africa, Crete is a roughly oval-shaped
mass of mountains and plains with
fewer Inhabitants than Indianapolis.
Ind. For more than 3000 years It
but played an Important part In
Mediterranean affairs, yet It lacks the
modern development of the West. A
traveler could traverse Its lfiO-mlle
length In a few hours by railroiul or
paved highway If there were rail
roads and good highways. There is
only one railroad, however, and that
la but three miles long. Good, roads
re being slowly extended, and auto
mobiles are becoming more numerous.
But throughout most of the Island
mules and donkeys are the chief
means of transport, as they were
eenturlea ago.
Tonns Rulll Inland In fornpr Pirates
"Btumbllng and slipping on the
trails of Cret, travelers often come ;
suddenly upon small commercial
towns many mllea from the Mediter
ranean shore. They were built in
these Inland locations when the sea
was Infested with pirates. Cret has
two important towns, both on the
north coast Canea, the cnpltal, with
26.000 Inhabitants, and Cnudla, with
a population of nearly 38,000. Can
dla's white suburbs extend fnr be
yond the old fortifications that once
surrounded its flat-topped, white
buildings.
"Thn southern const of the Island
has few snfn anchorages.. Most of
the trade, is handled by sailing craft
and motor boats. Large ships can
not approarh the wharves or the
mall harbors, but are obliged to re
main some distance from hhore. By
moans of cranes, merchandise is un
loaded Into small boats which ap
proach the beach as closely as pos
sible. There almost nsked men.
standing in water up to their shoul
ders and with pads on their heads,
else parcels of cargo and carry them
ashore.
"Olives, olive oil, citron, ratalna.
and tobacco are Important product
Of Crete. Clumps of olive trees ap
pear on the lowlands as well aa on
the mountainsides. One of the most
famous products of the Inland Is the
dictum or dittany, a plant growing
on Mount Diete. In the Middle Ages
almost miraculoui curntlve powers
were ascribed to It.
"Crete came under the domination
of Rome In flfl B. C. When the Ro
man empire was divided It was ap
portioned to the eastern rulers. It
remained under the Byzantine em
peror until 8iS when It wiw cap
tured by piratical Saracens from An
dalusia who held sway over the
island for 14 years. The Bvzantlne
later redeemed It. The Venetians
bought it In 1204 and ruled there for
400 years.
"Creto was probably the seed bed
for the culture which later flowed
Into the Hellenic civilization of
Oreece and Asia Minor. Archaeolo
gists have uncovered In the Island
rldenoe that rlvtltyntlon flourlmhed
in Crete as early as the First Dy
nasty of Egypt.
"Greece has had few periods or
quiet prosperity sire the classic days
of It city states, and the period of
Roman dominance. In the fifteenth
century the Turks rapt ured t he
country from Byantium, snd for
nrsrly three snd a half centuries It
lumbered under Turkish dominion
