Intervention of U. S. Lent Prestige to Republican Movement in Greece. (Ill ISA lHlrraanRiil Xett Serriif.) LONDON, June 13. The entry of the United St,-.tcs into the war was tedsT cf-! with being largely rc.Dti.1' the abilication of King iianline of Greece, in favor of his second son, Prince Alexander. Constantino not only everted (an autocratic sway over the Greeks, but was strongly suspected of planning '.he entry of Greece in the war on the side of Germany. The inteVvcntion of the Cnitcd Stat'S lent prestitre to the republican movement in Greece, headed by M. Veniwlos, and lessened to a minimun an plans Germany previously had of making a victorious peace. Plans for dealing w ith the dangerous Greek situation, began to assume definite shape at the allied conference at Savoy. The Italians played prnminont part in it and during the past few days official dispatches have told nf the advance of Italian soldier? into Gj-eece anil the occupation of the urn oitaot lily of Janina. Constantine's alshcation was not voluntary. He hold on until he could no longer resist the pressure. Finally in re. pon.-e to the demands of France, I-'mdand and Russia, he consented to t;ive up his throne. The ex -king had previously said II- at be and Queen SonhiH, who is n i.l.r vt the Ocri:m Mw, would ic'.iie to Germany to make their future home, if forced from the throne. However, it was reported today that rnnstantme would io to Sw itzerlantl iheie to live in rt tirenienl. The protecting powers, us Fng'aiit! l-'rance and Uiissta are t known to G-eete. have a film gtip upon the Iviihu'ent little kingdom. Hcinforeeeic'irs of -'rench troops were landed en Greek soil on Monday and today it was reported from Athens that more soldiers ha'.e arrived in Thessaly nnd Corinth. Outcome Problematical. The outcome of the Greek situation is problematical, there were rumors today that A'exawler would throw in l.i let with the ailir-, hut the former king has many supporters, who are o-German in their war attitude nml iey may attempt fca start a revolu tion. . Georgo, the crown pr ince of Greece, i : apparently susiiected along with hi.father, lie' will h ave Greece when :ms on rents do. Kver since fiyhlnig began in the Paikans tlie Greek situittion h oeciniea a big share of public alienli -n. Numerous winnings were served upon i clistantino by the allies, but Ai'liout avail. Finally, tiie country was blockaded so that no food or fuel ou'd be sent in. but still Con.t-intine cmained neu'ral. In the meantime former I'lemier N'enizelos began a revolutionary niovement, estahlislretl a seKimte government, with the tap. pmt of the allies, and enteretl the war cn the side of the entente. In the meantime the neuspaiiers of Ixindon, I'aiis and Home were demantling more drastic mtasuies and it was only yesterday that Hie Chronicle printed a powerful article headed "Is it not time lo depose Constantino?" Cnn.taiitine ontir.l of Thcs: lownfal! came, ul in this and I is believed in M.iild have ta i-lp (iermany. - trying to secure an harvi-ft when his ad he been sie ressetaining his throne.

The weed, which is now cultivated :n enormous ipjan'ilies and has largely vei.lieed cotton for cloth, is rts.keH like spinach and al.-o used for soups and other dishes. As the plar.t con'ains much sugar and chloropbil it has a considerable food value and it lasto better than spinach. In Sweden, where many of the ancient Teutonic customs have survived nettles have always been eaten, ami lately they have been sold canned.
